Our Wedding

Our story started when two people set us up to go to prom together. The evening started by Nolan being greeted by my entire family and an awkward picture that is one of my favorites to this day (photo for reference). We drove to prom in his dad's jeep and danced the night away. On the way home, I fell asleep in his car and scared to wake me up, Nolan had to navigate blindly in the dark. At first I wasn't so sure about him and kept my distance but within a few weeks (May 23rd, 2015) we were dating and the rest is history. We have gone through the highs and lows of high school, college, first time jobs, family issues, and everything in-between and there is no one else I would rather take life head on with.

“I’m your bossy overbearing sister that has become a friend as we have gotten older. I have since transferred that to Nolan as well and he’s stuck with me because he loves you. My babies have always loved uncle nonan and we can’t wait to have him be officially apart of the family as he has be unofficially for years!”

I met Hannah my freshman year of college through our sorority and after moving in together sophomore year, we've been best friends since! We've been through it all: sorority drama, working at the same country club, trying out new gyms, late nights at the bar, yoga classes, and everything in between and now, we get to plan our weddings together!

Jamie is my older sister and although we are 13 years apart, we have always had a special bond. We share a love for TJ Maxx, Target, cups, and you can regularly find us on a Saturday morning at Starbucks.

Allie is my niece (but we are only six years apart) and has been one of my favorite people since the day they were born. Although we have lived apart most of our lives, we have always been close and as much as they hate to admit it, we're besties.

Justin is Nolan's oldest brother but he and I (Abbey) actually worked together as servers before we even started dating! We are so lucky to have him join us on our special day.
