Maid of Honor
I joke that Elaina and I are "wombmates" as our parents met at a lamaze class. Our friendship came to fruition in elementary school playing spending every day together playing soccer, putting on productions for our families (and forcing our younger siblings into it), and sledding down the hill at her parents house. We have been inseparable ever since. No matter where I have had to travel for school or life, Elaina has always found her way to visit me and stay by my side.

Katie and I met in high school through common friends. Joking in our high school Spanish class was only the beginning of our countless memories as Katie went UVA for college, which was only 1 hour away from JMU. She was my home away from home.

Brooke, or "BDawwgg" as I still have her in my phone, is also one of high school besties. Brooke and I's love for Long Island, the beach, and Montauk beers often brought us together for some of my favorite times. As Brooke had also made her way all over to visit me in different places, I finally get to have her close in DC!

I met Riley in our Freshmen year doom, Ikenberry Hall (RIP). Riley quickly became my college go-to person for literally anything; advice, to complain, to get Cookout with, and to definitely have some fun. The JMU "drunk wall" would hate to see us coming. Definitely had some separation anxiety once we graduated after living with her for 4 years, but Philly is never too far away for us to continue our shenanigans

Rachel was first my "big sister" in my sorority, Delta Gamma. Rachel and I became close friends through all our of sorority functions, Jalepeños dates, and being roommates. Thankfully, my adventures with Rachel got to continue as she also lived in Boston when I was there for OT school. I don't know how I would've survived college or grad school without her!

Hope and I met at our first job in the rehab department at Select Specialty Hospital. She was one of the first friends I had made on my own in Richmond and is someone I can always count on

Emily and I met through our then boyfriends (now husband and soon-to-be husband) Antonio and Andrew. We have been on many double dates and couples vacations, and quickly became friends outside of this! Emily is someone I can always turn to for advice. I also started my running journey with Emily as she encouraged me to run the Monument Ave 10k with her. Later that year, we went on to run the Richmond Half Marathon together!

Gina and I met through Andrew as she is his best friend's cousin and a member of their Richmond friend group. She always welcomed me with kindness before I really got to know any of Andrew's other friends. Since moving to Richmond, Gina has been a constant source of fun and friendship for me

Charlie and I met through Andrew as he is good friends with her boyfriend, Taylor. Charlie lives just down the street from our first house together, and once we met, we were always looking for ways to hang out. Whether it be shopping sprees or trying to make Andrew and Taylor go out to dance with us, we're always having the best time.

Shelby is Andrew's little sister. During COVID, I was constantly at their house. Shelby and I got to hang out quit a bit during this including bonfires, family trips, and Chik-fil-A trips lunch trips. Now that we have Shleby's daughter, Emerson, she only amplifies our fun times!
