The weddingstyle magazin "Grace Ormande Wedding Style - GOWS" talks about the wedding of Lars & Brooke which "Dreamweddings Tuscany" succesfully arranged.
In the summer of 2009, shortly after Lars Gehre moved to Portland, he met Brooke Sikora in the lobby of their Pearl District building. It was a rainy Sunday afternoon and she was spending the weekend with her best friend touring through wine country in Oregon. During a quick stop at her apartment to drop off wine, Brooke saw Lars in the hallway by the mailboxes. Neither had ever seen each other in the building, but ironically only lived a floor apart. The moment they met, they seemed unable to speak so Brooke’s friend did all the talking. Before leaving to a nearby restaurant, they invited Lars to join them for a bite.
Brooke had never been so nervous wondering whether he would join them and if not when she would ever see him again. After about half an hour of trying on all her friends’ lipsticks, Lars showed up. He later admitted that he was calling all his friends to join him, without success. The moment Brooke and Lars sat down they started talking and have been inseparable since. It must have been love at first sight because they knew that they would marry each other the moment they met.
