James and Nicole crossed paths for the very first time in Ohio. They quickly become best friends, confidants, and remain one other's support system. After Nicole finished Law School she moved home to Chicago. James shortly thereafter pursued a job transfer and now calls Chicago his home. They moved into their first home in May 2006. Nicole and James strive everyday to be better human beings and set an example by trying to be honorable friends, family members, and role models to Kristina. They try to love each other more every day and remember Love is truly all you need. Nicole and James cherish one another and all the blessings the Lord has bestowed upon them. They are grateful for every moment and every experience, good or bad, that continue to help them grow as a couple.

James and Nicole's intimate civil service took place on April 23, 2007. We went to Mexico to confirm our committment at the shore of the Caribbean Sea for the most high to witness and accept. As a couple we are committed to making the world a better place and will use our marriage as a tool to help others. We were so taken with Mexico, we have decided as part of our honeymoon to help a local church build a home in rural Mexico. Also, we will donate money on behalf of each guest to the “Water for Africa Project”, that brings water to areas with no water access. Please know that each person in attendance has helped provide a necessity to those who so desperately need it to survive.
