Matron of Honor
Older sister, matron of honor, Irish, life of the party. My fondest memories with Cort are Chicago Sams trivia on Wednesday nights followed by a family watch party of the tv show survivor. Which turned into Cort and I trying out for the show at Mohegan (one day we'll make it). To movies nights, concerts, game nights, life advice, teaching her drinking games with Diet Coke. I don't want to say too much and spoil my speech. To be continued... #neverhesitate
Best Man
Best friend. Best man. Best thing that's ever happened to Scott..... Okay, maybe second best now (you win Cort). Since the days of Stage Band in 2005, Scott has been my Ace. From band, to the vice principal's office, to Wooster St. Pizza, to....well, you get the gist. We've done it all. And now I'm happy he's found someone "who's really gonna love him now" (inside joke, he gets it)

Growing up alongside Cort, I have made many memories with her, so it is a difficult task to pick just one. However, all of our best memories together have one thing in common – music. My love for music started when Cortney was right by my side at my first ever concert – High School Musical Live. Even though I was six and she was 11, we had equally as much fun. From then on, Cort let me tag along with her for endless concerts. By the time I was 18, Cort and I had seen Tim McGraw and Faith Hill, Sam Hunt, Rihanna and Travis Scott, The Jo Bros, and of course, Adele. My favorite memory was at the Jo Bros concert when Cort and I were having the time of our lives, so much so that the person sitting next to us started recording Cort and me. She said she had to capture us belting out every song word for word, and now it’s a video I still go back and watch of us. The last hilarious memory with Cort is not a concert, but occurred in a car ride to Rhode Island. Cort was sleeping next to me (or so we thought) when the song “Hey Soul Sister” came on the radio. She woke up immediately and hit the first note of the song screeching “HEEYYYYY.” That is still a memory we laugh about every time we hear that song. Cort gave me my love for music and I’m so beyond thankful we were able to share these unforgettable memories and she will forever be my soul sister!

My favorite memories with Scott were the days our parents left and we would watch all the movies we weren’t supposed to watch like Saving Private Ryan, Braveheart, Band of Brothers and the other ones like Lord of the Rings. And of course, we also would play GameCube games. Our favorites were Super Smash Bros and MLB MVP 04 & 05. He played the MLB ones so much, I can still remember all the music.

Growing up whenever school was closed because of snow I would get dropped off at Cortney’s. That is when I was introduced to The Simpsons hit and run the greatest video game to ever exist. We would also order Domino’s pizza and breadsticks and play card and board games. It was the best. Movies are our best friend. We would go for $5 Tuesday, but stop at the dollar store first for candy. But binging movies at home till 2am was also amazing and we did all genres. From Over The Hedge, to Silence of the Lambs, to Pink Panther (Steve Martin version), and of course Paul Blart: Mall Cop. We still quote all these movies today and we won’t ever stop. Movie buddies for life. JOJOBA

One of my best memories is the time we all went to Dennys in high school just being idiots with our friends. Scott decided to fold a pancake in half, bite both ends and stop the entire conversation to tell us that it looked like the Batman symbol. So on that night, pancake Batman was born. Although we had a ton of memories off the lacrosse field, that’s where we are now. Too many memories on the sidelines of the lacrosse field to list, but he was right there when I got to my first state championship game as a coach. Through the hat throwing, yelling, and the many needed BWW after game run downs we’ll always be Coaching Bros.
