Katherine Joslin McGirr and William Peter Nix have been friends since their high school days on the campus of Brunswick and Greenwich Academy. Yet it wasn’t until they reconnected during their senior years in college when sparks flew. Since college Katherine and Billy have lived in New York, Houston, Boston and now call Washington, D.C., home, with their beloved Bernese mountain dog, Lyla. The Reverend Dr. James B. Lemler officiated at the ceremony at Christ Church in Greenwich. A reception followed at the Apawamis Club in Rye.

The groom, son of Peter and Cathy Nix of Port Chester, graduated from Brunswick and Dartmouth College. Billy is an executive at Millstein and Company in Washington, D.C.

The newlyweds spent their honeymoon on St. Bart’s. They live  in Washington D.C.
