Nick is Joey's brother in-law. When Megan and Joey thought about who they wanted to officiate their wedding, they both simultaneously said “Nick”. We are truly blessed to have Nick in our life. His love for Joey’s sister Emily is admirable and he is an inspiration to both of us. We could not think of a better human being to help us tie the knot!

Our friendship is special in the fact that Jordan’s fiancée Sarah is also in the wedding party. Jordan is the life of the party and our time together is never dull. Our nights together usually end in Jordan and I singing karaoke at 3am. I requested Jordan sing at our reception due to his phenomenal singing voice, however I will need the help of all of you to pressure him into it.
A special thank you to our parents Jen, Laura, Richie, and John for all they have done to make our day extra special. We are so grateful for you!
