Wedding Party

Nicole Van Dyke

Bride

Rick Cook Watson

Groom

Christine Nemeth

Maid of Honor

Chrissy was Nicole's college roommate and forever best friend. Chrissy's mom encouraged Chrissy to lie on her roommate application so that she wouldn't get placed with a messy roommate (even though Chrissy prefers life a little more relaxed). Chrissy also indicated on her application that she liked horses even though she was an education major. The rest was history. She was placed in the "horse girl" dorm with her neat freak roommate, Nicole, and life was never the same.

Michael Villani

Best Man

Mike is Rick’s best friend for over 2 decades. He moved into Lockwood just a few years after Rick and his family moved into the development. Mike and Rick immediately connected having a lot of the same interests. ESPECIALLY video games. His brothers, friends and family welcomed Rick into their home with open arms…. Which I’m sure they immediately regretted as their fridge emptied, carpets got stained (a lot), and electric bill grew.

Amy Corey

Bridesmaid

Amy and Nicole have been friends since childhood. From beach days at a young age to Vegas in their twenties, together they are never short of adventure. Through thick and thin, their relationship is truly standing the test of time.

Shane Miller

Groomsman

Shane, being the youngest of the “gang” grew up a street behind Rick. As kids, Shane and Rick had an interesting friendship. Between giving one another a hard time, and pushing the other in the pond (Ya, we’re talkin to you Shane) they evolved an inseparable friendship. The hours/days/weeks of watching Rick fail at videogames provided Shane much enjoyment, while Shane’s kindness and sense of humor provided Rick with a lifelong friend.

Becca Lusignolo

Bridesmaid

Becca lived above Nicole during their freshman year in college. Although their time together in college was short, they have been friends ever since. From multiple Rolex excursions to drinking mint julips at the Kentucky Derby, Becca and Nicole's common love of horses has bonded them.

Jason Siringer

Groomsman

Jason and Rick met as kids at the basketball court after Rick kicked Jason’s basketball in the pond…. with no reason… just kicked it in the pond and ran away screaming. Surprisingly enough, Rick and Jason became great friends after that. Rick even used to wait in front of Jason’s house when he wasn’t home like a sad puppy. Wanting to play Super Black Bass or go tree climbing which typically resulted in them getting yelled at by homeowners to get out of their trees.

Erin Daring

Bridesmaid

Nicole and Erin met in college. As a California native, Nicole was lucky to have crossed paths with Erin. Nicole and Erin spent most of their college life together and even a couple of years after college when they were roommates. And even though Erin lives far away, she is still one of Nicole's favorite people.

Pat Fasimpaur

Groomsman

Pat and Rick met during the same “basketball kick in pond” incident. The real reason Rick ran away screaming was because he realized what he’d done… and immediately regretted it... Not only did he pick a fight, he picked a fight with the two biggest guys in Lockwood. After a nice dip in the pond and a new outlook on life, Rick not only became friends, but family with Pat.

Amanda Watson

Bridesmaid

Amanda is Nicole's future sister in law. From the day Nicole met Amanda, she has always felt extremely welcomed into the family. They now live a short bike ride away from each other and they are lucky to be able to spend a lot of time together along with Amanda's daughter, Mia.

Collin Van Dyke

Groomsman

Nicole’s brother Collin and Rick met during Rick’s first Christmas at the Van Dyke family house. Rick was extremely nervous meeting the rest of her family but was immediately calmed down after meeting Collin. The amount they had in common paired with his uncanny resemblance to another one of Rick’s large friends made the two get along almost immediately.
