Maid of Honor
Emily and I met when we were 4 years old at Carolyn Ehman's School of Dance in Galveston TX. When I moved away after 5th grade, we never grew apart. Through high school, college, first jobs and loves, never living in the same place but ALWAYS staying BFF's! Is there anything else to be when you meet in 1992? I taught Em how to stay the whole night at sleepovers and she taught me not to say everything I thought when I got upset. She is a master on the production side of many Blockbusters you have seen recently and a champion dancer while holding a champagne flute!
Maid of Honor
Z is the sister I never had, but I guess I actually do. The only one to consistently call my out on my ish but also be my biggest defender. Katy and I were college roommates, New York newbies and Michael Jackson fanatics together. She has choreographed musicals all over the country and even had a permanant class at the acclaimed Broadway Dance Center for years before heading south to follow all her loves and passion to New Orleans!
Maid of Honor
Rachel and I were also college roomies as well as theme park and Tokyo stage sisters. My favorite gig buddy and THE MOST versatile and creative person I know. You can find her bright pink or purple or whatever color suits her hair pinned in a bun or French twist with her pointe shoes, a pony in front of her class on a bike or her curls bouncing with a camera in her hand and combat boots or stiletto (also boots) on her feet. Either way she will disarm you with her signature laugh and you can see why everyone instantly falls in love with her.

Ali and I went to college and danced in New York together but really fell in love out here in Los Angeles. The hype woman everyone wants but is rare to find, I have never felt as lucky to have someone in my life than her. My twin flame! While she has a full time job and her own digital branding company, she also finds time to be the best dog mom and artist. Our invites and all signage you will see at the wedding is a tobyrosedesigns.com masterpiece!
Maid of Honor
My lovely stunning perfectly symmetrically faced Beth is a true soulmate! We shared one class together my first semester at OCU, History of Rock and Roll and a 30 minute break and we never could shake each other after that! Even after Beth switched schools she travelled up for my 21st birthday (even though she wasn't 21), I travelled for her Austin shows and we guided each other through our early twenties like girlfriends should. :) Plenty of celebratory and break up wine and Tony Award after parties later, we've been reunited in California and I couldn't be happier to have her by my side once again.
Mother of the Bride
A world class teacher, Mama and best Lorelai a girl could have. Happiest sitting by a lake or the ocean, having a cup of coffee on the couch with a good conversation, or smiling up at her stoic and handsome husband James. (everyone's favorite Dad-man). She is the Mama of all the Mama's!
Father of the Bride
Stuart is an over-worker and over-lover. He always does everything at 1000% and you feel it! Owner of TLC Advisory Group, he does some of the hardest work with the most tender heart. You will definitely find him on the dance floor, showing off the MOST energetic moves. :) The best Dance-Dad to have growing up!
Flower Girl
Brittany's beautiful Grandmother. My heart and soul! I am so happy to have her not only be here but be a part of this special moment we can hold onto forever!
