Boca wedding ...

Emily Aagaard and John Potter will be married this Saturday, Oct. 20 on Banyan Street in Boca Grande. The bride's stepfather, Stephen DeJohn, will marry the couple.

The reception will be held that evening at the groom's family home on the island. The couple met at Lehigh University in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania in 2002.  

The groom began coming to the island with his family over 20 years ago, and has been bringing the bride to visit for the past eight years.  The bride is the daughter of Terri DeJohn and Randal Aagaard of Salt Lake City, Utah. The groom is the son of Cookie Potter Feinberg and the late T. Randolph Potter, Jr. of St. Louis, Missouri.   

Ms. Aagaard specialized in non-profit management before joining John to work in commercial Real Estate. In addition to his business, John also races sportscars in the Grand-Am Rolex Series, most notably winning the GT class at the Daytona 24 Hour race this past January. The couple currently resides in the bride's hometown where they enjoy spending time with family, exploring the mountains of Utah, cooking, travelling and learning together.

Congratulations to the new couple!
