Supposedly, the big bash was to celebrate the expansion of Dr. Carlos Laos’ medical-equipment company, Respira. But it soon turned into something else: the surprise wedding of Laos, a Peruvian-born pediatrician, and Dr. Hollon Meaders, a Dallas dentist who hails from Wichita Falls. The pair met in 1992, started dating in 1996, and were engaged in 2005. (Carlos doesn’t believe in rushing into things.) Saturday’s celebration at the Park City Club was an international one, with guests from countries including Peru, Mexico,and Germany dancing it up to the classy strains of the Vicho Vicencio Moondance Orchestra. And the newlyweds’ first-dance choice was a natural: “Besame Mucho.”
