When you grow up with someone, the bond is strong.  Such was the case with Nicolette & Tyler! They met at a mutual friend’s birthday party in high school, and they’ve been together pretty much ever since.  Through college, nursing school, an engineering degree, and numerous other life events, Nicolette & Tyler have established a beautiful history.  During his speech, Nicolette’s father said of Tyler, “I could not have hand picked a better person for my daughter.”

The day was filled with sentiments of events past as well as anticipation for their future…and a midday pizza delivery, accompanied with smooth jazz radio provided by the Maid of Honor “because she thought it just fit”!  Needless to say, this wedding was a blast!  It was also a first for us when, right before the first kiss, a ton of phones went off in the audience at once—there was an amber alert!  Everyone laughed and they restarted the final remarks before the kiss.  It was a memorable one to be sure!

After Nicolette & Tyler’s beautiful ceremony, the reception kicked off with humorous toasts, laughs, and dancing to “Sweet Caroline” for Nicolette’s grandma, Carol. The evening was filled with celebration (and a sprinkling of snow for a little extra magic). Congratulations Nicolette & Tyler!
