Tannor, too, is deeply grateful to have Michael standing beside him on this special day, supporting him as he marries the love of his life.

Mia and Bella lived next to each other throughout college and have so many memories of late night food runs and going line dancing. Through the years, Mia has supported Bella and is someone she can always count on. Bella knows she can always call Mia for advice or to make a short story long and chat for hours!
