Aimee & Matt
Wedding Party
Alex Kalish
Matron of Honor
Alex and I have been the best of friends since we were 9 years old. She is my chosen sister and my constant friend. We have been there for each other through every big and small moment. It was my honor to stand by her side on her wedding day and I cannot be more excited for her to stand by mine.
Jaclyn Dweck
Maid of Honor
When I was 6, I was convinced Jaclyn was my birthday gift since I wanted a sister so bad. I am so lucky to have such a loving, silly, and caring sister. Jaclyn might be the most excited about this next chapter in my life. I am so excited to have someone with such great energy by my side.
Jamie Rose

Jamie and I lived around the block from each other since grade school. Throughout the years we have become closer and closer. I will never be able to find a better dessert- loving, talented photographer, and kinder soul. I cannot wait for her to stand by my side on our wedding day!
Crissy Cappiello
Bridesmaid
Crissy and I met working at a camp for children with special needs. The day I met her, I knew we were going to be best friends. Crissy is the most talented, creative, and energetic person you will meet. Crissy will be the life of the party with or without a drink in hand =)
Kayla Galiczewski
Bridesmaid
Kayla and I met a week before her sweet 16. That Friday night, as we were making our Halloween costumes together, she invited me to her special party. Kayla has been a part of my life ever since. She will be the one to make sure that every single detail is perfect the day of the wedding!

Rachel Kuhl
Bridesmaid
Rachel and I have been so close since high school. Whenever we are together, we always find a way to laugh until we cry. Whenever you are around her, you will find a way to smile and to appreciate the little moments. I could not be prouder to have her stand by my side and dance the day away!
Nicole Heller
Bridesmaid
When I met Nicole a couple of years ago, I knew that although we were brought together by the Hellers, I wanted to be friends with her for life. She is a beautiful, kind, intelligent, and independent woman. I am so appreciative for our friendship and so excited that we will officially become family.
