Our Lore

About the Couple!

Picture of About the Couple!

Nate is an employee of NYCREATES, and he takes pride in being the go-to guy at the office. He loves worldbuilding and running DnD games for family and friends, designing and drawing maps, playing Super Smash and Mariokart, and strategizing multiple-day-long chess games.

Iona is currently a student of Mortuary Science at HVCC, and spent several years traveling as an anthropologist before deciding to become a mortician. They have an academic and fan interest in Tolkien, and love playing show tunes on the record player as they slowly build up a vinyl collection.

How We Met!

Iona’s stepbrother Alex invited his friend Nate over for Dungeons and Dragons shortly after Iona came back from Memphis. Although Iona was initially very surprised to find Nate in her living room unannounced, by the time the dice started rolling, they were already friends. It was hard to ignore the connection, and soon they were completely inseparable.

Our Families

The parents of the groom are Erin and Jason Wulff. Nate has an older brother, Joey, and a younger sister and brother, Natalie and Michael.

The parents of the bride are Cathy and Thomas Hale Sr. Iona has a younger sister, Jodee, and two younger brothers, Tom Jr. and Alex.

Very important additions to the family include Chester, Iona’s cat, Duchess, Nate’s family cat, and Ollie, Nate’s family dog.
