From the very beginning, my grandfather has been one of my biggest supporters. Through every stage of life, he has loved, encouraged, and stood by me with unwavering strength. His guidance, wisdom, and faith have helped shape the person I am today. I am so grateful for the many ways he has supported me along the way, and it means the world to have him standing by my side on such an important day.

You have the warmest, most genuine heart, and the way you pour into our friendship means more to me than I could ever explain. I could be having the worst day of all time, and somehow I end our calls laughing and full of gratitude for you. From our drive-home FaceTimes to every laugh and hard moment in between, you bring so much peace & light into my life. Thank you for showing up so fully, and for making my life better in the most genuine way.

From random roommates to forever friends, who knew one college assignment would lead me to someone I truly can’t imagine life without?

You are the JWoww to my Snooki and my favorite person to stay up all night with, laughing until we cry. Your sweet and caring heart means the world to me, and I am so grateful for the friendship we built and all the memories still ahead.

Lori Grimaldi
Mother of the Bride
Mom, you are the strongest, hardest-working, most selfless and giving person I have ever known, and the life you have given me is something I will never stop being grateful for. Our quality time and the countless phone calls we share throughout each day mean more to me than you will ever know, and I will forever cherish every minute we spend together. Everyone who meets you sees what I have always known: you are sweet, loving, radiant, genuine, and impossible not to adore. You have loved me, lifted me up, guided me, protected me, and shown up for me in more ways than I could ever count. This day would never be possible without you, and I am so thankful for all of the wedding planning moments we have gotten to share together. I truly hope I can become even half the woman you are someday. I am so lucky to have you by my side for this journey, this day, and every day. I love you Mom.
Tina Simms-Grimes
Mother of the Groom
Mom, I think we’re both a little surprised I made it here! Thank you for putting up with me and guiding me through life in your way. You’ve been amazing, showing me how to work hard, be independent, and face life head-on. From the times I’m sure you wanted to kill me to the moments we laugh about now, I’m grateful for it all because it’s made me the man I am today. I love you, and I hope I’ve made you proud.
David J. Grimaldi
Father of the Bride
My dad and the steady hand I have always been able to reach for. For my entire life, you have shown up for me in every way, always ready to help, protect, encourage, and make sure I never feel like I have to figure things out alone. If I have a problem, you step in without a second thought, and that has meant more to me than you will ever know. You have stood beside me through every chapter of my life, filled our family with so much laughter, and shown me what it means to be a truly great person. You have set such an incredible example of what an amazing man, husband, and dad looks like through the way you are so caring, patient, loving, encouraging, and always a safe place for our family to land. I am so grateful for the example you have set and so lucky to have you as my dad. I love you, Dad.
