Terence recalls ‘melting’ moment at Lauren’s big day in Tuscany

Dancer and ABCD actress Lauren Gottlieb tied the knot with London-based director Tobias Jones on June 11 in a dreamy ceremony under the Tuscan sun. The wedding was attended by close friends and family, including choreographer and long-time friend Terence Lewis. Describing the event, Terence said, “Lauren and Tobias got married under the Tuscan sun, and the wedding was not just romantic, it was cinematic.”

Though he initially wasn’t sure he’d make it, fate intervened. Terence told Mumbai Mirror, “I had a mind-body dance therapy retreat in Italy that coincided with the wedding. It was just two hours away,” he shared. Calling the ceremony emotional and heartwarming, Terence recalled a memorable moment during dinner. He said, “Someone clinked glasses to get them to kiss, and instead of a shy peck, they broke into a slow dance right there. We all just melted.” He added, "From the setting, to the decor, to the 7 course menu , to all the arrangements that were so well curated, that it was the best way to experience Tuscany n Tuscany never looked better—or felt more full of love!."

He also revealed a humorous exchange during Tobias’s vows. “Tobias got emotional reading his vows and Lauren whispered, ‘You better cry — you made me wear heels on gravel!’ We were all in splits,” Terence laughed, summing it up as “intimate, hilarious, and filled with a lot of love.”

Terence and Lauren have been friends for the past seven years and have also worked together on many corporate events.
