Our Wedding

"You matched with Joey on 11/5/23" We matched on an online dating app and within 24 hours we swapped phone numbers, within 48 hours Joey asked Amy out on a date, and within 96 hours Joey and Amy met for the first time. Our first date was at Mojitos in Rogers, Amy just leaving work and Joey about to go in to the nightshift. Their first date was entertained with stories of music, religion, family, and trains all over bowls of chips and salsa!

You have a match! 

Our Story

Photos

God gave me a guide eleven years my senior. From sports to faith to life since birth. Though there are miles between us, the bond we share as brothers knows no bounds. 

Frankie Giunto

I first met Amy almost 10 years ago at church. We became close friends through small group and experiences through our church community. We have traveled together, gone on mission trips together, and event visited historic landmarks together!  Over the years, we've bonded over our shared love of stories, and I couldn't be happier that Amy has found her happily ever after!

Lindsey Russell

I met joey through model trains and we grew to be close friends over the years. He helped my family through the flood we went through. And continued into playing music together and helping form the local train club and get started building a train layout everyone knows as the PRID.

Jonny Albright

Amy and I joined forces four years ago when I started working at the church. We instantly bonded over a love of books and our corny sense of humor. She is a one of a kind treasure and I'm beyond thrilled for her and Joey to have a happily ever after!

I first met my handsome brother Joey on a hot steamy summer day in 2021. We worked together on the railroad and our eyes locked while switching cars in the yard. I knew it was love at first sight as he was desperately wiping the sweat from his eyes. It was hot out that day but I knew it was his passion for me. Our eyes locked and the mood was set. Its been roses from that hot summer day since....

Ian Murray

I met Amy when we were both working at the church, but our relationship really grew when we led Bible study classes together for almost 5 years. I've been praying for Joey for years and am so glad he found Amy. 

Hannah Carter

Joey and I met through music. I remember the day he came into the store and we had an opportunity to talk about our favorite bands and discovered how much similar music we enjoyed. Eventually playing in bands together and sharing the stage. He’s my drummer bro and I’m a better person for getting to be a part of his world.

Joey and I have been friends ever since we started having late night karaoke sessions and Bible studies on the trains! We always share a good laugh and thank the Lord for His provisions. 

Dylan Barber

"Hey lady! You going to be at church today? Will you sit with me?" Those were some of the first words Amy ever said to me, and they marked the start of a friendship I will treasure always. What began as sharing a pew soon turned into bookstore hangouts, road trips to visit her family, complete with musical soundtrack accompaniment (Show time! Show time! Yo!). Almost a decade later , I am honored to accept Amy's most meaningful invitation yet - to stand by her side as she begins this new chapter of her life. Amy you are a joy, and I can't wait to celebrate you in this opening act of your marriage story. 

Chrystal Thomas

We met because of a misunderstanding at work and then one angry conversation later ended with "You should come over and see my model train layout!", we have been good friends ever since. 

Brent Lawrence

It's hard to believe it, but I've had the joy of knowing Amy for almost 10 years now! We met through our church, and being part of the same faith family gave us a foundation to grow close. Over the years we've shared a lot of laughter, bonded over a mutual love of Mexican food, and supported each other through both big life changes and everyday moments. Getting to know Joey and seeing the way he cherishes Amy has brought me such happiness- you don't meet someone as kind and compassionate as Amy every day! It's a true honor to celebrate their special day with them as they begin this new chapter together.
