It took the couple a long time to find an ideal venue for their wedding, one that would incorporate elements from each of their divergent backgrounds and be an indication of who they are as a couple.
Chris, raised Catholic in Tulsa, Oklahoma, was one of three boys brought up in a comfortable home with proper etiquette, while Anna's father was married in yoga pants and a tie-dyed tank top with hair down to his waist.
