Best Man
I’ve known Kai since middle school and I played high school football with him. Despite us knowing each other for what seems now like decades, Kai and I didn’t become friends until after high school. Ironically enough we became super close after working together at Dunkin. We went from barely knowing each other to dressing up as “white chicks” for Halloween in a snap of the finger. We would work together during the day and spend way too much time with each other at night. There was a point in time where I would see Kai more than I would see Kelsey! We’ve had countless amounts of good times spent together and I know there’s almost no one else in the world that would have my back like Kai. He’s definitely one of my closest friends and I’m honored to have him as my Best Man in my wedding.
Maid of Honor
Ariana and I go way back. We were inseperable throughout middle school and a good part of High School. We have had some bumps in our friendship but the most important part is we are here now and she is my FREAKING MAID OF HONOR! Ariana is almost like a sister. My family treats her as their own, and vice versa. As kids, Ariana use to walk into my parents house when I wasn't home to pick up some food before dance practice. I tell you she was a part of my family. As we got older life got the best of us. We could go months without talking sometimes. Although everytime we rekindled, its like nothing has changed. No matter what we will always be there for one another. I could not imagine this day without her by my side.

I met Julian in middle school when we played together on the football team. I never really talked to him and we didn’t get close until I started dating Kelsey. We started to bond over video games and mostly playing by playing Call of Duty together. I can always joke around with Julian and although sometimes his jokes freak me out, we always have a good time together. You won’t ever catch me drinking moonshine with him and quite frankly, I don’t think the rest of the family would either. He definitely made our vacation to Tennessee unforgettable. I know I can trust him with anything, except for taking out the recycling.
Bridesmaid
Morgan was my first sister. She is 3 years younger than me. Growing up we used to fight constantly. I used to always tell mom that she is not the angel everyone thinks she is.... and well she learned the truth. LOL. All jokes aside, I am so glad to be able to call her my sister. We grew so close. We even sell Pure Romance together! She may be stubborn and we get into arguments....quite frequently..... although we can never stay mad at each other. If I ever needed her, I know she would be there in a heart beat. She has grown into an amazing woman. I could not be prouder. This day would not be complete if she was not in my bridal party <3
Groomsman
Marvie probably has the biggest heart out of everyone I know. This kid would give you the shirt off his back if you needed it. There are also times where he likes to push your buttons until they’re close to popping. For the longest time whenever Marvie would get upset with me he would just sit and stair at me. He knew it would get under my skin and that’s why he would do it. I like to think now that it was because he thought I was cute or something. Out of all of Kelseys siblings I think it took Marvie and I the longest to connect and I’m so glad we did. Over the years Marvie and I have grown closer and closer and no matter how much I mess with him, he’ll always give it right back to me. He is definitely someone I can go to with anything and I know he’ll always have my back
Bridesmaid
Ericha is Joey's youngest sister. The moment I met her I was relieved. Growing up I have always been nervous of dating someone with a sister. But i have gotten very lucky with her. I hope to be a great role model for her and help her through steps in her life. If you dont know her she is the most quietest person you could ever meet. She opens up to me more than most and I feel very honored to have gained a 3rd sister like her! I always knew my sisters would be in my wedding and I am more than thrilled to have a 3rd sister by my side during the most special day of Joey's and I’s life!

The first time I met Madden was at a baseball game with Kelsey. He told me I looked like I had diabetes and that’s when I knew we were going to have a good relationship. I can joke around with Madden as much as I want and he’ll always give it right back to me. His butt may be as flat as a board but he’ll always be thick in my book. Maybe one day he’ll be taller than five foot, but if not, everyone always loves the midget.
Bridesmaid
Kayla is my youngest sister. She is 6 years younger than me. When Morgan and I were told we were going to be having another sister we cried.... and not tears of joy. But I have to say I do not know where I would be in life without her. Kayla is practically my kid/sister. She is with Joey and I all the time. Ask anyone! LOL. Growing up we weren’t too close because of our age, but we have built the closest sister relationship known. I call her my Mini Me <3. We can literally tell each other anything. She is always by my side through the good and the bad times. I can show her tough love and she knows I mean it out of love, which is a key factor in our relationship. My wedding day would not be fulfilled without her on my side. I know my day will go as planned as long as she is there!
Groomsman
I’ve known Austin since I was in high school. I always saw him in the weight room and he would always make an effort to say hi to me and crack a joke or two. Austin and I really started getting close after he lived with us for a couple months. No matter how badly I beat him in Madden he’ll always smoke me in NHL. Austin is one of the most kind hearted people I’ve met and I know I can always go to him for advice when I need it. Although he moved way too far south for my liking, he’s only a phone call away and I know he’ll pick up at least 50% of the time.
Bridesmaid
Missy and I met one night in Florida when I was drinking. what a way to meet someone, yah know. I ended up being my drunken self and having a heart to heart with her and for the life of me, I could not remember what was said. I always rooted for Austin and her. About a year later, they were all moving up to Pennsylvania. Missy and Austin ended up moving in with Joey and I for a good month or so. During that month I felt like I gained a sister. Austin and Missy moved back down to Florida in August and even Joey cried. Even though Missy lives over 1000 miles away we talked almost every day. We got so close she even asked me to be her Maid of Honor in her wedding. I am so glad she has come into my life. I decided my day would not be ideal without her so I asked her to be in our wedding.
Groomsman
Noah. What is there not to say about this kid? He’s a major pain in my ass most of the time, but the other 10% of the time I like him. I’m just kidding. I’ve known Noah for close to 5 years now and to be honest, I would’ve never imagined him to be a part of this wedding. Noah and I really haven’t gotten close until the past couple of years. We went from the guy the other person had to deal with at family gatherings, to becoming friends and sharing a bond. I’ve never seen someone who can drink as much as he does and not wake up with a hangover in the morning. Seriously, this man can drink. With that being said, I know Noah would always be there for me if I needed him and vice versa. He is one of the most genuine people I know and I’m ecstatic to have this man as a groomsman in our wedding.
Bridesmaid
I met Pamela about around August of 2019. I decided to coach youth cheer that year. Thank goodness I did. I met this amazing woman and we clicked instantly. Her kids call me Auntie Kelsey. Sometimes I have them over for sleepovers. I did not only gain an amazing best friend but I also gained amazing nieces/nephew and well there is Axl too who just tags along. Same as Joey. HAHA. We can go to each other for anything. We have gained such a great friendship, I made a last minute decision and decided I needed this girl up with me on my Day.
Ring Bearer
Out of all the kids I know, Jamo has the most amazing unique personalities! On Christmas eve, he dressed up as the grinch, and you could only refer to him as “Grinch”. He has this bold personality but can be so shy at the same time. Its a perfect mixture between his parents! Haha. I wouldnt want any other ringbearer on this day! Love you Jamo!
Flower Girl
Ady may only have a couple years on this earth but this girl has definitely impacted us. She is the most down to earth little girl I have ever met. She has a heart of gold. I enjoy spending time with her and she enjoys spending time with our cat Jet. She was so memorized that our cat was so friendly! Haha. Love this girl and so glad she gets to be a part of our big day!!
