Lindsey & Nick in Arroyo Grande, CA

When Lindsey Kramer decided to visit her boyfriend Nick Mihlhauser for the weekend during his training camp, she got more than a quick getaway. On Saturday morning, they decided to have room service deliver breakfast. Lindsey sat on the balcony enjoying the view while Nick brought out the three covered plates. “I went to dig right in and took the top off the first plate only to find the most beautiful ring!” Lindsey remembers.     The Bride Lindsey Kramer, 23, nursing school student  The Groom Nicholas (Nick) Mihlhauser, 23, professional football player  The Date July 14    The couple chose to marry in their hometown of Arroyo Grande. “I always wanted a backyard wedding,” Lindsey says. “My parents grow lavender, and July is the peak of their bloom, so I knew it would be amazing to be married in front of the flowers.” The garden setting inspired an elegant theme, with an informal but still put-together feel permeating all of the wedding details. Lindsey chose a palette of chocolate brown, sage, and ivory, playing up the natural beauty of the setting.
