Maid of Honor
Ashley and I met way back in 2000. It was 7th grade Spanish class to be exact. We were assigned a project and I tapped Ashley on the shoulder because I knew she was smart! What I didn’t know was how many snacks her mom kept in the house. I was hooked! I knew this girl was pretty cool but her moms stash of dunkaroos kept me coming back! All kidding aside, ash is the sister I never had. We have been through two decades including many of life’s ups and downs. She is a bonus aunt to my nieces and nephews, an honest tell you how it is, drop everything on a dime, best friend. I am so lucky to have her in my life and I can’t wait to celebrate just the next milestone in my life with her by my side.

I met Tara in 2009. It all started with me babysitting her daughter Alexis one night while she went out with my brother and friends. What would unravel the next couple months no one seen coming, and it turns out I found true friendship in Tara VERY early on and I will forever be thankful for that. Tara and I clicked, she is the sister from another mister. We started off slaying at a BBQ joint then with Tara teaching me how to make cakes and goodies. Tara is one of the nicest, most genuine and caring people I have ever met. I am forever grateful for her and her daughter Lexi. Tara is there for me when I need her most, and although she’s moved to Portland Maine, distance has proved to be no obstacle on our friendship. Ps. Her macaroons are to die for.

Ashley and I have known each other since she was born, a short 4 years after me. Ashley is the Mother Hen. She is the most organized, caring and loving soul there is. Ashley and I have grown so close over the years and I am so extremely lucky to have her love and support. We are so similar and can honestly read each other’s mind. Ash is always the one I go to for advice whether it be for an outfit, a job interview, or just an everyday text that I have overthought for way too long. She talks me down when I worry and she has kept me sane. I’m so thankful to have her by my side on the big day!
