Ceremony

Reception

Our Wedding

Joe and Sophia met in their high school math class. Joe was interested in listening to music way before his time, drawing, and skateboarding. Sophia had been interested in who this guy was for all four years of high school but never knew how to approach him. Joe’s friends set up any opportunity to get joe to come out of his shell, and quite frankly, he was confused about what was happening. One day his friend pushed all the papers out of Sophia’s hands and Joe’s famous words were “come on guys” and proceeded to help Sophia gather her paperwork as she said thank you and that was the first conversation. Sophia slid into the dms which Joe didn’t respond to for several days. Joe now says he didn’t know girls even liked him so he thought it was a mistake. They went to their senior prom together, where Joe showed zero mercy in a inflatable boxing match, Sophia knew this guy was different than anyone else and that’s because he was undeniably himself since day one. They spent the summer together before Sophia went to college and kept in touch throughout. It was at this time Joe realized Sophia was the only person he could ever want to be with. Once she moved back home,  their relationship grew by hours of laughter, exchanging new music, and going through life’s moments as young adults. Sophia had never met someone that was completely genuine in their intentions, tbh it was weird lol. Day by day, their love and relationship grew. Joe supported Sophia throughout her career and hair color changes while Sophia pushed Joe to never fear where talent as incredible as his could take him. They’ve made the commitment to be best friends forever. Support each other throughout life’s struggles and challenges. Always keep up with the best breakfast in town. Keep sharing cool music with each other, even though Joe’s known the song for years. Keep falling in love with not only each other, but themselves in the process. Till death do them part.

Our Story

The sister I always wanted. I am so incredibly thankful to have the opportunity to get to know Sheynna throughout the years and call her home. We’ve been in every single situation imaginable together and she has been there to hype me up the entire way! Who would’ve thought that the mutual hatred of snow but love for Mac DeMarco would have started our journey of forever. 

Sheynna

My ride or die for life! Monica was one of my mentors when I first became an RT. Throughout the years she has shown up for me in so many ways imaginable and I am forever grateful to have her by my side, life’s just sweeter with Monica in my life and could not imagine this day without her. Love her long time

An extension of home, my confidant, my friend, best person to quote the office and movie references. One of the kindest and toughest souls all the way from the wild Wild West. Forever grateful to have Amy in my life 💕 she’s always provided support and comfort in all of life’s crazy moments, I’d be lost without her on my side
