Cindy:  Things will go wrong but don’t sweat the small stuff. You will be late, there will be traffic, you will forget to bring something, but it really doesn’t matter. Once you see your best friend on the other side of that aisle, waiting for you with a big cheesy smile, it will be just about the two of you. And that is really what it really is all about…the two of you and your amazing new life together. Take a few moments for just the two of you to take it all in and realize you made it and have the rest of your lives together!

Matt: Just have as much fun as possible on the day. It’s really about one thing and one thing only…your future wife and your future together. No matter what happens that day you chose to spend the rest of your life with the woman of your dreams. At the end of all the wedding shenanigans, remember that a week, a month, a year, fifty years from now that you got exactly want you wanted.

Cindy:  We are total weirdos…our favorite song to karaoke to is Celine Dion’s “It’s All Coming Back to Me.” If you have any doubts just try it…it will become your go to I swear! We put it on our must play list (Corey must have thought we were nuts) and we were not sure if it would just be Matt and I (and a few select bridesmaids) belting it out on the dance floor. Yet everyone got really into it and it was hilarious and so much fun to watch the most dramatic impersonations of one of our favorite divas!

Matt: Bobbi lying on the ground in front of Wrigley Field to take one of the most amazing shots of Cindy and me. Disclaimer: All shots taken by Bobbi are amazing. This one in particular was just more amazing because she was rolling around on the ground to make sure she could capture it.

Not a thing.
