Noah has brought so much joy and love to our lives.
Richard Guillot
Officiant
We are so honored to have Ricky marry us. There is truly no one better for the job. As a child, I have so many fond memories of Ricky and I swimming in Grandma's pool, riding in the golf cart, building forts, and more. As an adult, I have watched Ricky serve this country in both the Coast Guard and the National Guard. I have watched him learn and grow to become the man he is today. He has found himself a loving family which he puts first every day. We are so thankful to Ricky and look forward to the big day!
