Allison & Mark
Wedding Party
Jessica Gallagher
Maid of Honor
Jessica and I met as freshmen in college at NYU when we had the fortune of living next door to each other at Hayden Hall. We've since celebrated 17 years of friendship by traveling to 18 countries together, drinking all of the sake in the world, watching every single episode of Law & Order: SVU, getting matching tattoos, and going on several romantic weekend get-a-ways with Jessica's Subaru and very special dog Bella. Jess has been there for me through every up, down, and important moment of my adult life and while others have come and gone Jessica has been a constant, always supporting and loving me no matter what. I should maybe be making an entire website about her, but I will instead say that there is no one I would rather have standing next to me as I enter a new adventure in my life.
Hunter Shelburne
Best Man
Hunter is a proud Burqueno transplant to NYC who has known Mark for oh no it will have been 20 years when the actual wedding happens. He was a teacher in NYC for many years and was basically Michelle Pfeiffer in Dangerous Minds. Remember Coolio? He now works as the best salesman for educational software on the east coast. He has an adorable pup named Maggie. So, Hunter and Mark were friends at Albuquerque Academy and have remained friends with strong interests in college football, whiskey, board games, and arguing while annoyingly repeating "how so?" at each other. For many years in New York, the two have met up to watch foobawl and make friends with fans who agree Alabama sucks. They sing a song when they take whiskey shots and everyone at the bar thinks they are cool when they do it.
