Custom Vintage Gown
The fashion designer wore a custom all-lace Badgley Mischka gown, which she had a hand in designing. The old Hollywood-inspired dress featured a 10-foot train and a sheer lace back, and it looked all sorts of lovely on Lauren's svelte figure.

Ceremony Drinks
Lauren decided to put a twist on the traditional cocktail hour. Instead of waiting until after the ceremony to serve cocktails, guests grabbed one on the way into the ceremony and sipped on them while vows were exchanged.
