(footsteps treading)
(breathing deeply)
- Okay, you ready?
- No.
(upbeat music)
I can hear you stompin'.
- [Jordann] I'm a loud walker.
- [Nick] It's the same as always.
(upbeat music)
You look very nice.
- You look very nice.
(upbeat music)
♪ Uh-huh, uh-huh ♪
Do you wanna see the whole me?
- Yeah, give me a little,
I mean, I saw the butt from behind, so.
- Oh, yeah, I mean, this.
- I'll take it.
- This is what we pay for.
- I'll take it.
(calm music)
- Not many people know
that Jordann is a huge, huge poster person.
Yes, those little sticky notes that you use at work
or on file folders.
I knew in the past that she and Nick
used to leave little notes for each other
on the bathroom counter before exams
or on particularly hard days
just as a little boost or a reminder
that the other person was thinking of them
or just wanted to say, "I love you."
But if you know Jordann,
then you know that this is quintessentially her.
The little things in life that are often overlooked,
the small gestures,
are the things that she cherishes the most.
A hug on a tough day,
or a, "Hey, I love you." means more to her
than anything in the world.
- If you don't know Nick, when he cares about
and loves someone, he does it all the way.
He dives in head first,
he gives that person everything he has.
And as your big brother,
I've always been so scared that you're gonna get hurt,
because you love people so much.
But then I met Jordann,
and I realized that you found the person who deserved
every bit of that love and every bit of that full on ability
you have to just love people with every bit of your heart
without any question.
(calm music)
- I've sat down and tried to write this letter
a few different times.
As I started to think of what I could say,
there's only one thing that kept coming up,
and that was back to the first day that we met.
- I was sitting off to the corner of the room
wearing a black T-shirt and the glasses
you say I'm not myself without.
You were laying on the floor, chuckling up at the ceiling,
serving as the endless chuckle of the room as per usual.
As the night went on,
we maintained seemingly uninterested in each other,
and when the night came to an end,
you kindly offered to drive me home.
You asked if we could make a quick pit stop
to your parents' house.
You wanted me to meet the first of many critical siblings
who I'd need to impress.
Holly, your childhood Yorkie, approved,
and the rest is history.
- Meeting at Alex's and taking you home
to meet my family dog didn't seem important at the time,
but it ended up being one of the best days of my life.
I always wonder what my life would've been like
if we had never met.
I wouldn't have had a best friend
that I love spending random times sitting on the couch
watching awful shows and making fun of everything we watch.
Or someone who will drive 45 minutes
to a random Dairy Queen in the middle of nowhere Indiana
at 9:00 at night to get an Orange Julius
because that's what we were craving while watching a movie.
(sniffling)
Sorry.
(sniffling)
And now here we are, sitting in Ireland,
after a two-hour bus ride, seven-hour flight
with nine family members and my first time driving
on the opposite side of the road.
It's finally our wedding day.
The day we have both been waiting for
for the last two and a half years.
- Welcome to the event of years in the making.
Now I have to ask you, are we all ready
to get these two married today?
(guests cheering)
Today their promises become permanent
and your favorite people become family.
- I, Nicholas, take you, Jordann Nicole Cress.
- I, Jordann Nicole Cress,
take you, Nicholas Myron Mcfarland, to have and to hold.
- [Nick] From this day forward.
- [Jordann] For better or for worse.
- [Nick] For richer or for poorer.
- [Jordann] In sickness and in health.
- [Nick] And death do us part.
- With the blessing of everyone who is present here today,
I now pronounce you husband and wife.
Nicholas, it's time to kiss your bride.

I love your ridiculously long and dreamy eye lashes.
I love how much you love family.
I love everywhere we've been,
and I love everywhere we're going.
