Wedding Party

Jennifer

Maid of Honor

My best friend since day 1! Jennifer is not only my sister, but my best friend. Growing up together was so much fun. From making forts, to playing Bratz dolls, to putting on shows for the family-we had the best of times. Now that we are older, we have remained best friends. I don't know where I'd be without her constant support and encouragement. We have been on so many adventures together. One of my favorites was when we went to California for the first time. I wouldn't be the person I am today without her. Jennifer is my role model, my hero, and my best friend, and I know she's going to be the best Maid of Honor ever.

Katie

Bridesmaid

Katie is not only my cousin, but one of my best friends. Our childhood memories are some of my favorite memories, My favorite memory with Katie is when we both crashed into the same tree when we were skiing (Jen also crashed into the same tree in this same situation). I don't think I've ever laughed harder in my life. All three of us sat there in the snow in our ski gear cracking up. We even started a club when we were younger with us 3 and our grandma. I'm so glad I have a cousin who I am so close to and continue to be close to even though we live so far apart now.

Kelly

Bridesmaid

Kelly is my oldest friend! I have know Kelly since Kindergarten. We even lived on the same street during our childhood. Although we didn't get close until 8th grade, Kelly has been there through it all. We had a lot of firsts together, including our first sip of alcohol LOL (yes, we were grounded). Kelly and I used to sit on her roof and talk about life and wonder, " I wonder what the guys we are gonna marry are doing right now." We had no idea what we were going to do without each other when we went our separate ways for college. One of my favorite memories with Kelly was when she surprised me my junior year of college. She wrapped herself in a box and sat on my porch and when I got home from class, she came out of the box. Best part, I'm MARRYING HER COUSIN!

Amy

Bridesmaid

Amy and I went to high school together. We were in choir and drama together and I remember I was always jealous of her. She definitely had the best voice in the whole school. I felt so cool when I was able to be friends with Amy. We had the greatest times in high school. I always forget Amy did not go to my college because she was there all the time and we had some wild, crazy memories there. My favorite memory with Amy probably isn't appropriate for this post LOL. Amy has been such a great friend all these years, and has even visited me many times in Tennessee. ALL of my friends know Amy. She's a part of ALL my friend groups and we all love her.

Taylor

Bridesmaid

Taylor and I met freshman year of college. We always say it was fate that we were in the same "welcome week" group because if not, I may have never became friends with her since we had completely different majors. Going through college would not have been nearly as fun if I didn't go through it with Taylor. We spent pretty much every waking moment together and I would not have had it any other way. Taylor's family became my second family when I was in college. My favorite memory with Taylor was when we were at Mcdonald's and we took the funniest picture in the world (had to be there). I ended up graduating in the School of Business just like Taylor and there's no way I would have gotten through Strategies in Business class without her (she did all the work for our group).

Kelsey

Bridesmaid

Kelsey and I went to college together, but we did't get close until senior year. I always thought Kelsey was too cool for me because she was in a sorority. Senior year I asked Kelsey if she wanted to move to Nashville with me and we've been best friends ever since. We lived together in Tennessee for 4 years. We had other various roommates along the way, but the only thing that was consistent about living in Tennessee was Kelsey. We even bought a cat together (my current cat Penelope). Every day when I came home, I would vent to Kelsey and she never judged and always listened. We even worked at two different restaurants together. We also make AMAZING karaoke partners.

Cheyenne

Bridesmaid

I met Cheyenne when I was working at Jonathan's. Once we started talking, we immediately connected and I knew she was going to be someone I was going to became very close with. Ever since I met Cheyenne, we have spent almost every waking moment together. At one point, Cheyenne basically unofficially lived with me. We have done everything together over the years. We even celebrate birthdays together because our birthdays are only two days apart. My favorite memory with Cheyenne is when we went canoeing for our birthdays and we both fell out of the canoe and couldn't get back up. Everyone in Tennessee knew we were always together. Whenever I wasn't with Cheyenne, people wold ask me where she was. We are a dynamic duo.

Stephanie

Bridesmaid

I met Stephanie when I was working at a private counseling practice. Stephanie was going to be the new intern once I transitioned from intern to employee. My favorite memory with Stephanie is my first memory with her. She shadowed me in group therapy and afterwards, we sat in the office and talked for 3 hours. I legitimately felt like my life was changed after that conversation. She was the only person who could relate to how stressful it was to be in grad school, working as an intern, and working at a restaurant. I have only known Stephanie for a year, but the impact she made on me makes me feel like I've known her my whole life. And her dogs are the only dogs I truly love.
