Angelica & Richard
Wedding Party
Brittany Tillander
Maid of Honor
Brittany is the older sister of the bride, but only by a year or so. Growing up so close in age, Brittany and Angelica have always gotten along well and being only a year behind Britty in school Angelica was always lucky enough to get to see Britty do everything first. Britty is the type of person everyone wants to ask for advice, and is usually Angelica's first call whether it is to complain, share news, or ask for help. Although these sisters now live in different states they keep in close contact. As Maid of Honor, Britty is more than willing to go out of her way, coming all the way to NYC to help the bride select her wedding dress and watching Mozzarella during whatever engagement photos he was not in, in addition to providing frequent input on all manner of wedding decisions.
Samantha McKinnon
Bridesmaid
Sam is the bride's younger sister by almost three years, a time lapse that felt significant at 6 when she was chopping the hair off of Angelica's barbies but feels meaningless at 27. Sam is the type of person everyone wants in their corner, for one she is amazing at hair and makeup (and did both for Angelica prior to the engagement photoshoot), for another, she is one of the least judgmental people you will ever meet. There is nothing you can tell Sam that will shock her and she is never afraid to stand up for the people she cares about. Sam knows how to make the most boring events fun and is Angelica's favorite Netflix/Hulu binging partner. Angelica and Sam have also been know to share frequent Mary Kate and Ashley movie marathons.
Margaret Gawlik
Bridesmaid
Margaret is one of those people you can always count on to take your side, even when *you* aren't sure you're right. Margaret and Angelica have known each other since the first grade when they were both in Ms. Willet's Class at St. Emily Elementary. This friendship got off to a bumpy start and it wasn't until high school, when fate (and similar test scores) ensured that almost all of their classes would be together, that they realized they were absolutely meant to be friends. Angelica and Margaret share a deep and abiding love of reading in general, and Harry Potter in particular. For the most part these long time friends share very similar interests though Angelica has never been able to get on board with Margaret's love of camping.
Nicole Gunawansa
Bridesmaid
Nicole is one of the most supportive people you can ever hope to meet, she was Angelica's number one cheerleader all throughout the law school application process and during pretty much every high stakes moment of college. If you want to feel excited about something, Nicole is the person to call. Angelica and Nicole's friendship dates back to their time at Washington and Lee, having met senior year of high school during Admitted Students' Day. These two were lucky enough to be on the same hall freshman year, and to spend copious amounts of time together between Bonner, Questbridge, and Campus Kitchens. Although Nicole now lives in D.C. while Angelica resides in New York City, they still see each other quite frequently as Nicole, an avid traveler, often makes it up to NYC.
Isabella Martin
Bridesmaid
Isabella is one of those people you can go to for anything, ranging from expert help editing a paper to advice about a sick dog. Isabella excels at everything she does. You can also tell Isabella anything and have total confidence it won't be repeated. Isabella and Angelica met freshman year at Washington and Lee as roommates and like to say that their friendship was made by science (or in other words: a roommate questionnaire). Isabella and Angelica were roommates for both freshman and sophomore year at W&L. Although they tragically lived apart for junior and senior year, they set aside Monday nights to study, hang out, and watch Jeopardy. Like Angelica, Emily, and Nicole, Isabella was a Quest Scholar at W&L.
Emily Suminski
Bridesmaid
Emily is the type of friend everyone wants to have, she's hilarious, supportive, and always in your corner. Emily isn't afraid to say what she thinks and always knows what to do. Emily and Angelica met during their senior year of high school at W&L Admitted Students' day. At Washington and Lee, Emily and Angelica were Quest Scholars, Bonner Scholars, and CKWL Leadership Team members together: all of that is to say they spent a *lot* of time together in undergrad. Including interning in the same city for all three summers of their college career, and even at the same location (Campus Kitchens) sophomore year. Angelica also had the honor of being a bridesmaid in Emily's 2014 Wedding to Braedon Suminski (another Questie and one of Richard's groomsmen).
