All their guests sign it at the wedding.
Broderick and Katie as well as most of their guests went to Notre Dame. They are huge fans of the ND Football team. For their special gift I bought them an autograph Football. Signed by ND legendary coach Lou Holtz. All their guests sign the ball too! GO IRISH!!
Nicole and Matt LOVE going to their favorite bar, Sully's. A table of their guests work there or go often. Friday afternoon I went to the bar to find their special gift. The bartender, Dan took me down into the basement to see what we could find. I spotted this old Bag Toss board from 15 years ago. He gave it to me for free. I loaded it to my backseat and had all the guests at the wedding sign it! One of the biggest and most fun gifts we've ever done!
