Matron of Honor
Overwhelmed with unconditional love and adoration for her best friend of ~15 years, Catherine decided to reach out to a few people who are also lucky enough to know and love Mackenzie to try to, to any degree, aptly capture this myth, legend, and beauty: “Sneaky, on-point commentary with bubbly delivery.” “Fierce feminist fighter of fallacy and infimity.” “Pure and sassy lady with an impeccable memory for important dates.” “She is a thoughtful woman in both small acts of baking and large acts of nursing during a pandemic.” She’s a travel adventurer and a movie sleeper.” “Loving and faithful daughter and friend.” “Witty, clever, thoughtful, sensitive, and sensible.” “MackDaddy.”
Maid of Honor
Izzy's friendship is the best Christmas gift I ever received. We had crossed paths through some mutual interests online (angry music, vegan food, ya know) and had yet to hang out in person. On Christmas night in 2012, my family all retired early and I was wide awake at 10pm. I texted Izzy, "Want to get a late night snack?" and she obliged. We became fast friends and, over the last ten years, have seen each other through some of the best and worst times of our lives. Here's to many more decades of good food and bad jokes.
