Adam Gardner
Best Man
I'm Jon's older brother Adam. I've known Jon since before he could steal my pizza off my plate or chase me around the backyard while we hit each other with sticks. We have a lot of good memories together, but I've never seen him as happy as he is with Jackie. I'm so proud of him and the life he has built with her, and I'm really excited to have a new sister-in-law!
Ashley Martinez
Maid of Honor
Hi everyone, My name is Ashley and I am one of Jackie’s MOH’s. I have had the privilege of being Jackie’s best friend for over 10 years. We met our sophomore year of high school in our Spanish class. I can say that our friendship fully flourished when we had to do a project in Spanish class about different types of music and were given “Reggaeton”. We could have easily done a report of when/where reggaeton started but no, we decided to create a whole dance with our other group members that shocked the entire class! ICONIC. Our friendship carries so many memories, but this special day that I get to witness as your Maid of Honor, will be the #1 memory in our friendship! Let’s get you married my JacRaeSmi!
Clayton Balistreri
Groomsman
Jon and I go way back, we met in high school and we have been close since. After college we were roommates for a few years before he met his beautiful future wife, Jackie! Jon is one of my oldest friends and like a brother to me, he’s loyal, kind, creative, driven, and patient. All of these are qualities of a good friend and coincidently will help him be a great husband. I am so happy for Jon and Jackie and and so excited to be one of his groomsman. Love you both!
Caitlin Read
Bridesmaid
I’ve had the distinct pleasure to call Jackie a friend for over three years now… we met due to our mutual love of football and keeping active. From Dirty Dawgs to Porch Crew our flag football team went through quite the transformation. Regardless of the uncertainty, we were immediately drawn to each other and quickly came to realize that our friendship was something special. Other than our love of all things football, our mutual affinity for dancing often and staying wild solidified an already blossoming friendship. Once Jackie met Jon, Louis and I knew that we found our favorite power couple! Spending any time together, is always a good time full of laughs, drinks, and of course with Jackie, great food… it’s such a natural fit. I’m so blessed to have watched their love grow. I feel honored to be able to stand by their side on this most momentous milestone.
Louis Mihalinec
Groomsman
I met Jackie several years ago through a group of misfits looking to play flag football together. We created a team and enjoyed many fun seasons playing together with our friends. After a couple of years, Jackie invited Jon to join our team and… as the saying goes, the rest is history. Caitlin and I have many fond memories of fun experiences with the happy couple from tailgates and concerts to bar hopping and charcuterie nights. Throughout these years, Jon and I became office buddies and have grown our friendship over plenty of beers. I’m so thankful that Jackie and Jon found one another and I know they will both remain lifelong friends. I can’t wait to created many more memories with the future Mr. & Mrs. Gardner.
Stephanie Treulieb
Bridesmaid
Thankful to have a found a great friend like Jackie! Happy to share a bunch of firsts and have such a fun time on and off the football field!
Jackson Menke
Groomsman
I’m Jackson Menke, one of Jon’s groomsmen. Jon and I first met through our mutual friend, Clay, back in college when he was visiting us. We pretty much hit it off right away and within a few hours it felt like we had been friends for years. Fast forward 6-7 years later and Jon is now one of my closest friends. Jon is absolutely hilarious. More than that though, Jon has a huge heart. There are a lot of times where I’ve found myself with Jon sharing a whiskey by the fire and talking about life. Jon always has a unique perspective and you can tell that he genuinely cares and wants the best for you. At the end of the day, I think we’d all count ourselves lucky to have a friend like that. I met Jackie just a few years ago and as a friend to Jon, I was thrilled for him. You can tell how much she loves and cares about him. She also has the patience of a saint, which you would need to have with our friend group. She’s such a loving partner to Jon and for that I’ll always be grateful. I’ve really enjoyed getting to know her and am so excited to be apart of their wedding!
Amanda Smith

I’ve known Jackie since she was 9 when I first started dating her oldest brother Eric. Throughout the highs and lows of life’s journey, Jackie has been there through it all, now it is my absolute privilege to be there to support her on big day!
Eric Smith
Groomsman
I’m Jackie’s oldest brother, and I’ve been able to watch her grow into the woman she is today; a strong, kind, compassionate loving person. Looking forward to supporting her and Jon on their next big adventure!
Madeline Smith
Bridesmaid
I had the pleasure of meeting jackie when she was 12 years old. I was 22 years old and dating her older brother. I went down to Miami to meet the family!! All went well and Jackie welcomed me with open arms! I am lucky to say I got to watch her grow into the amazing human she is today. Even from afar in Jersey!! Distance doesn’t matter with our relationship. That is love! We love her and Jon so much and cannot wait to be part of this incredible day!!
Kevin Smith
Groomsman
Hello, my name is Kevin, Jackie’s favorite brother…. I live in the fine state of New Jersey which consists of the best food, worst people and some of the worst traffic known to man. Which makes me very happy to say I’m looking forward to Jackie and Jon’s Florida wedding. It’s hard to believe my baby sister is getting married and to a great guy. Looking forward to celebrating!
Amelia Divin
Bridesmaid
Hey there! I’m Amy Divin. I am a wife and a boy mama. I have two Aussie (mainly because we fell in love with Cannoli). We have Cannoli’s half brother. I met Jackie through Kappa. During big/little buddy dates she texted me to hangout. We went for ice cream and talked for hours. I knew immediately I wanted her as my little. Since then we have continued making new memories, reminiscing on past memories, and showing up for each other. She has been with me for some of my favorite seasons of life, she truly is an incredible friend. She is my best friend, sorority sister, little, my pumpkin spice. I am so excited to stand next to her as her life with Jon truly begins!
Justin Sanguily
Groomsman
My name is Justin Sanguily and I had the pleasure of living with Jon in college which was hands down the best time of my life. House get togethers, cookouts, hurricane boarding up/parties, and just getting to know Jon and how great he is. Nothing makes me happier than to see Jon at his happiest, and that was he started dating Jackie. At one point Jon did not know how to cook to save his life, and now I see his culinary skills surpassing all of us - I think that’s due to Jon finding someone who makes him better every day, and that’s something to celebrate. Love you both and wish you a lifetime of love and happiness.
Katie Anderson
Bridesmaid
Although Jackie hasn’t been around my entire life, I cannot imagine the rest of my life without her. I met Jackie through Kappa in 2018, when she picked me up from the airport. We went to dinner, talked, and bonded over anything and everything (especially food, yum!) She constantly keeps things entertaining whether it’s her stories or her true Miami driving. I’m so blessed to have been there for so many amazing moments, from getting Cannoli to falling in love with Jon. I am so excited to stand next to Jackie on her big day. She’s a great person, friend, big, teacher, and dog mom, but nothing will compare to the amazing wife she is going to be. I love you both with my whole heart and I cannot wait to stand next to you on your big day.
Shawn Moore
Groomsman
My name is Shawn. I’ve been friends with Jon for almost 10 years now. We met as pledge brothers at UCF, and later became roommates. We’ve made great memories together through countless tailgates, dinner parties, and fraternity events. We’ve also been there for each other through hard times. Jon is a smart, hilarious, loyal person whose best qualities have only been amplified by his relationship with Jackie. It’s so easy to see how happy they are, and how much love they have for one another. I can’t wait to be a part of their wedding, and I’m even more excited to see them create a beautiful life together.
Cassidy Behrens

Hi, I’m Cassidy! Jackie and I met through a mutual friend at UCF and became close friends! We were roomies for 5 years along with our crazy doggies Bailey and Cannoli. I’m excited for this next step in her life and happy to be by her side to support her in any way she needs!
