Our Story

For Guests

Lifelong best friends, Adam and Mike have shared more than two decades of memories, including  family vacations, the high school carpool and the last play of the homecoming football game. Unfortunately, Adam is unable to join us on our special day, as he will be serving our country with America's finest in the United States Air Force.

Adam Thornburg

Dia's "little" from Alpha Gamma Delta, Kat is an incredibly kind, loyal and playful person. Rarely does she miss a birthday, Christmas party or excuse to have a good time with us. Anyone who meets her will know instantly why she's one of our closest friends.

Katherine Creamer

Chris and Mike met as freshmen  at Ohio University and spent four years conquering Athens together. They not only share a birthday, but also a close bond that has made Chris an integral part of our lives. 

Chris Grimaldi

Dia and Sandie met at PR 20/2o, and  have since become the inseparable "Dandie." Whether it's volleyball, lazy Chipotle Sundays or a night out, we can always count on Sandie to be a part of wonderful memories :) 

Sandie Young

After meeting in grade school, Dia and Monique attended Beaumont and Ohio University together. We've taken turns being each other's support system, tag-teaming incredible OU Halloween costumes and creating countless memories—there's nothing we haven't conquered together.

Mike's younger brother, Dan, is also a graduate of Ohio University and an important part of our family unit.We're so thankful to be sharing this day with him!

Dia and Kelly attended Gesu and Beaumont together. We've grown up quite a bit since our times hanging out at Arabica, Target and McNulty's, but one thing is for certain—Kelly is one of the longest standing and most thoughtful friends in our lives.

Kelly Alvarez

Childhood friends, Mike and Nick have considered each other blood brothers since both having hernia surgeries in kindergarten. Nick is an incredible friend to the couple, always supporting us in friendship and philanthropy.

Dia and Tracy technically went to Ohio University together, but really met at PR 20/20. From work happy hours to country concerts and Browns tailgates, we've become a part of each other's families and created a lifetime worth of memories.

From grade school through college (and surviving spring breaks), Brian and Mike have had a lifetime of fun together. Now slightly older and wiser, these two still remain great friends who are always down for a good time.
