The Producers

Dan and Dana Grossman
Dan and Dana decided to sign on as Producers after Nate and Jo's participation had been assured. "We'd been casting about for our next project, but we wanted to choose carefully," said Dan, "and obviously we didn't want to sign on with just anyone—we wanted to ensure that the right people would be working with us."

Dana has made her reputation by specializing in outdoor weddings, and an unnamed insider said that this wedding will also feature the outdoors. "I think this is going to be another outdoor blockbuster," said the source. "Although we all know that with [the unproven allegations of] global warming and everything, this isn't going to be the outdoors she worked with last time."

John and Patty Miller
John and Patty were rumored to be skeptical about the project at first, and they needed a face-to-face meeting with the Grossmans before they could be convinced to attach themselves to the wedding. "We'd heard some good things through the grapevine about the Grossmans," said Patty, "but frankly, we all know how reliable the grapevine is."

The producing pairs finally hammered out an agreement during a tête-a-tête over pumpkin pie last Thanksgiving, and word coming from inside sources is that this has been a productive working relationship thus far. "We knew the Grossmans had a lot of industry connections, and that they'd done this sort of thing before, albeit on a much smaller and less-grand scale," said John, referring to the '03 Grossman-Reilly wedding, which the Grossmans helped produce.
