       Kristin Laura Andrews, the daughter of Carol and John Andrews of Sag Harbor, was married on Sept. 15 in Lake Placid, N.Y., to Christopher Alvaro Lemos. Mr. Lemos is the son of Nancy D. Lemos of North Bethesda, Md., and Emilio Alvaro Lemos of Pontevedra, Spain.

       The ceremony took place at the Adirondack Community Church with the Rev. John Martin officiating. A reception, with music by Talking Machine, followed at the Lake Placid Club.

       The maid of honor was the bride’s close friend Doria Goorevich of North Bethesda. The bride was also attended by Laura Ramos of Silver Spring, Md., Maureen Baran of San Diego, and Sarah Erskine of Kensington, Md.

       Mr. Lemos’s best man was his close friend Julio Navascuez Jr. of Washington, D.C. His groomsmen were Christopher Drury of Rockville, Md., Jason Meyers of New Berlin, Wisc., and Philippe Kozub of Bethesda. His ushers were Walter Nelson of Baltimore and Scott Panek of Sun Valley, Calif.

       The couple met through Ms. Ramos and Mr. Kozub in late 2009 and got to know each other while training for and competing in triathlons, a sport in which both have achieved Ironman status.

       The bride, a graduate of Mercy High School in Riverhead, holds a bachelor’s degree in economics from Dartmouth College and a master’s in public health from Emory University. She works for Mathematica Policy Research in Washington, D.C., and also competes as a professional triathlete.

       Mr. Lemos has a bachelor’s degree in mass media communications from the University of Maryland at College Park and works for OpenText, a software company.

       The couple took a wedding trip to Telluride, Colo., and now live in the Glen Echo Heights area of Bethesda.
