Matron of Honor
We met in middle school - and actually hated each other. Over time, she grew to love me and became my best friend. Over the last 15 years, Rachel has been my concert buddy, snowball date, assassins teammate, locker partner, homeroom bestie, and now my matron of honor! We've been through so many things together, including getting engaged in the same week! Even though she's in El Paso, she's always there for me (and vice versa). I genuinely have the best ride-or-die who I can talk to about anything.
Best Man
Wolfe, as I’ve always known him, has been one of my closest friends going back to 6th grade at Malvern Prep. Since we first became friends he has always been my go-to guy with arguably my two favorite things, sports and music. We played on the same sports teams at school (always JV) and spent everyday after junior and senior year sitting around a picnic table free styling. He’s been my partner in crime the last decade and thinking about the dumb shit we have gotten ourselves into will never not make me laugh.
Bridesmaid
We met in the lovely town of Altoona, but the specifics are a little fuzzy. We went through Penn State together as sisters and eventually roommates. We spent many days at the library, and at chapter meetings, but our nights out are my highlights. Bri is one of the only people who would willingly go with me to country night at Pickles. Since graduating, us working girls don't get to see each other enough, but when we do it's like we're back in our own world.
Groomsman
Tyler is another day one I met at Malvern. One of the best things about Tyler back then was that he lived just a bike ride away, so we got to spend a ton of time together, whether it was during the summer jumping off bridges, or during the school year on the legendary Bus 51. Throughout the years I have only grown closer with Tyler and his family, who have always treated me like another member.
Bridesmaid
Leah is someone I met through High School Marching Band. She was a young freshman and I was a sophomore who didn't really fit in with the bandies. We had an instant connection and started sitting on the bus together during games. We became the duo you couldn't separate even if you wanted to. Leah started her organization business after college, which I helped her name Back in the Box. Through every milestone, she has been by my side. We promised to have each other in our weddings in high school, and I'm so happy to say we're fulfilling it.
Groomsman
Bren is not only my brother, but also one of my best friends who I’ve only gotten closer with as we grew up. Some of my best memories with him include beating him in our own Penalty Kick shootout (with exaggerated celebrations of course) or him making me look stupid out on the basketball court. Doesn’t matter what we are doing, I’ve always enjoyed his presence and he is someone whose opinions have always mattered to me.
Bridesmaid
I met this crazy girl at State College. She is someone who can always bring me out of my shell. When I first met her, I watched her bounce around from person to person introducing herself. She can spark a conversation with literally anyone and can talk until morning. She is an extremely kind-hearted and selfless person. Mady was there when I first met Drew, so it's only appropriate she is apart of our big day too! I'd even call her a good luck charm.
Groomsman
He may be my youngest brother, but he has by far the biggest personality and is hands down one of the funniest people I know. His competitive spirit and never quit attitude are something I’ve always admired in him. I’ve been nothing but a proud big brother watching him come into his own, from the early days of Dyl Pickles to Rory’s favorite uncle. My brothers have been two of my best friends throughout my life, and I wouldn’t want it any other way than them being up here with me.
Bridesmaid
My favorite sister-in-law, who has lovingly put up with my brother (officially) since 2017. Our friendship started through mutual teasing of my brother. On the beach, Kim and I can spend hours reading next to the ocean. On the mountain, when Will and/or the rest of my family can't stop skiing, Kim and I will happily head to the Foggy Goggle. She is patient, caring, and a good friend. Kim can be reserved, but if you get to see her parkour you know it's about to be a fun night!
Groomsman
Will is my future brother-in-law who I’ve had the pleasure of getting closer with over these past few years. We were able to hit it off from the start through our mutual hatred of each other’s favorite hockey team and our love of college football. Eh maybe not from the actual start. A couple hours after I met him, there I was getting pelted in the face with rock hard cookies as David was using me as a human shield. So if you’re at the cookie table and he is close by… take cover.
