Matron of Honor
Karyna is my cousin but she's more like a sister to me. We grew up together and most of my childhood memories involve her and spending weekends at her house. In 2017 she started her business and offered me a position to work alongside her, which moved me to Gainesville, FL. It was because of her that Jacob and I met, if it wasn't for her, we wouldn't be here!
Best Man
My brother for life (literally). David is the oldest of my 2 younger brothers. He's currently in college and will be a sophomore once the wedding takes place. Having conversations about the adventures of college and the mysteries/unknowns of life after leaving home for college have definitely brought us together and made us closer, not only as siblings but as friends too. I'm forever grateful for him and am excited to have him as my best man!
Bridesmaid
Raffie and I met in middle school and she is my oldest friend, she's my opposite in almost every way but it's always worked for us. In middle school, we were so inseparable, our teachers would often confuse us for the other. She's the type of person you can call at any time of the day and she'll be drop everything and be there for you.
Groomsman
I met Zach in my freshman year at the University of Florida. He was my neighbor in good ole Beaty Towers. After realizing we had a lot in common, through our liking of lacrosse and the same goofy energy around each other, we decided to be roommates our sophomore year of college which will forever be a year I remember full of adventures, funny moments, and personal growth (it's the year I met Amanda!).
Bridesmaid
Julie and I met while working for Francesca's in college. We bonded over our love of Once Upon a Time, traveling and our mutual dislike of working for Francesca's. She's one of the kindest souls you'll ever meet and also one of the best hype people you'll ever meet. Even though we live on opposite sides of the country, we make it a point take a trip once a year together to see each other!
Groomsman
Chase and I go way back, as one of my first friends when I moved to Apopka in the 2nd grade. Chase and I found common ground in some of the friends we had at the time and always stuck around each other. Our friend group grew and became what it is today, with Chase always being someone that checks in on me when he hasn't heard from me in a while. What a doll, am I right?? Chase is also 1/3rd of the OG #scootergang, which he, Anthony, and I formed in high school tv production class many years ago.
Bridesmaid
Alexis and I met when we were freshman high school. After our freshman year, the high schools decided to rezone leaving us both going to a brand new school where we didn't know a lot of people. We decided to stick together and the rest was history. I really don't know how I would've gotten through those years without her and all the cuban bread she made me after school. Although we may not be in the same state or talk everyday, whenever we get together it's like no time has passed.

Anthony, aka "Cuban", has also been a friend of mine for a very long time. He was there for me in 5th grade when I had my first crush but didn't know how to talk to girls. We've grown up together and have constantly found common ground through a love of lacrosse, golf, the gators, and many other things. He's a guy I know I can always call my best friend and will be there for me through thick and thin. #scootergang for life
Bridesmaid
Lauren is Jacob's sister and my future sissy! I've only known her for a few years but she's quickly become one of my favorite people. She's one of the sweetest (and sassiest, in the best way) girls I've met. I've loved watching her grow into the person she is today and I'm so thankful I get the opportunity to keep witnessing it!
