Wedding Party
Alex Schmidt
Maid of Honor
Alex and I met about 7 years ago at work! We ended up being each other's secret Santa as she was in the preschool room and I was in the Pre-K room! It turned out we had so much in common that we started having lunch together at our favorite place... Chipotle! After I left the daycare and pursued a public-school job opportunity, our friendship continued. Even miles apart, we continued to have monthly dinners and breakfasts! Alex is my best friend, who has supported me through all the ups and downs and is always there to lend a shoulder or a glass of wine at Cooper's Hawk! I can't wait for her to be a part of our special day!
Keith Brabec
Best Man
Keith has been the greatest brother I could have asked for. He was, and still is, a wonderful mentor while I was growing up. From cheering Keith on at baseball games to watching sports at home, I've always enjoyed spending time with my big brother. I'm so excited to have him stand by my side when I say I do!
Amy Lugo Brabec
Bridesmaid
Amy and I met for the first time after Mark finished a Spartan Race! I knew I would get along right away with Amy, when I found out she was a teacher, and she liked to poke fun at Mark! We automatically clicked about all different topics which was such a positive. We have continued growing our relationship throughout the years and I am beyond happy to say I am gaining a sister in my life! I am so excited to have Amy be a part of our special day!
Jordan Gray
Groomsman
Jordan and I met freshman year of college. We bonded though playing basketball and our love of music. We went on to being roommates for the rest of college. Jordan continues to be a great friend and supporter for me. I can't wait to have him stand by my side as I say I do!
Maxine McComis
Bridesmaid
Max and I met at a graduation party when Mark and I first started dating. I was a little shy towards everyone, because it was Mark's friends and I wanted to make a good impression. We continued to hang out as couples and found out we had a blast together! Max is a dear and true friend to me and I'm so excited that we have grown our friendship over the past three years. I am so excited that she will be standing with us on our special day!
Leon Reid
Groomsman
Leon and I met Freshman year of college. We bonded though our love of sports. Although Leon can be quiet, he always brings great advice and wisdom. I can't wait to have him stand by my side as I say I do!
Samantha Hernandez
Bridesmaid
Sam and I met for the first time at her graduation party from Pharmacy school! I was a little shy to meet all of Mark's closest friends for the first time! However, after a few times hanging out and getting to know one another better, we have clicked and have become such great friends! I am lucky to call Sam a dear and true friend! I am so excited she is standing with us on our special day!
L.A. Stoddard
Groomsman
L.A. and I met while working at Freeman. L.A. helped keep the workplace fun with his sense of humor and great personality. To this day he continues to keep the laughs flowing and the jokes coming wherever he is. I can't wait to have him stand by my side as I say I do!
Anna Coppersmith
Junior Bridesmaid
I have known Anna since she was two years old. I was Anna and her brother's nanny for many summers, and I have had the honor of watching Anna grow up to be a beautiful young lady. I am so excited to have her be a part of our special day!
Viktor Rusenas
Groomsman
I met Viktor at the gym. I was training for a Spartan race when I noticed a trainer with a Spartan shirt on. Viktor ended up training both Courtney and I to finish our first Spartan Trifecta weekend. After finishing the race, Viktor has continued to be a great friend and help us with our health and fitness goals. I look forward to having him stand by me as I say I do.
