Our Wedding

Once upon a time, over 50 years ago, in the whimsical halls of St. Columba school, a magical friendship blossomed between two little girls, Laura (Melissa's mom) and Lisa (Will's mom). They were two peas in a pod, inseparable partners in crime, creating a lifetime of memories through their childhood and grade school years. Even though high school, college, and careers led them on different adventures, their bond remained with birthday wishes and celebratory greetings keeping their friendship alive. Years later, destiny brought them adorable little girls, and fate, it seemed, had a plan. Melissa and Will's story began to intertwine when Melissa and Will's sister, Courtney, were just three years old, twirling and giggling their way through dance classes at Betty Jean's. Fast forward to high school, and these two dancing queens found themselves reunited. Melissa and Courtney became instant friends, sharing classes, lockers, and countless laughs. Little did they know that Cupid was lurking! Will admits that Melissa definitely caught his eye a time or two in those high school hallways. Life, took Melissa and Courtney on separate journeys after high school, as it often does. But fate had one more surprise in store. Picture this: a chance encounter on vacation in Georgia! Both families, completely unaware of each other's plans, found themselves in the same restaurant at the same time. It was a reunion filled with laughter, stories, and a spark of something special. The girls rekindled their friendship, enjoying girls' nights and new memories. And Courtney couldn't help but notice how perfect Melissa and Will would be together. A little nudge here, a shared phone number there, and voila! After a few texts and a legendary 3-hour phone call, Melissa and Will finally went on their first date. And as they say, the rest is history!
