Bridesmaid
Jess was my first sibling and sister. When she’s not adventuring with her dog and husband, she is enjoying being basic with her Starbys and leggings. I can always count on Jess to lighten the mood, say something silly or ridiculous and make me laugh - like the time she tried to gift me a SpongeBob riding a cheeseburger backpack… but really just wanted it for herself. 🤣
Bridesmaid
Amy is my baby sister. She is creative and caring while also having the funniest sarcasm and wit. Amy may have amazing make up and great hair, but she can tile a backsplash and rip out drywall. I can always count on her to tell it like it is and for her honesty. She is a “get it done” kind of person like our dad and you may see her doing the worm on the dance floor!
Bridesmaid
Tricia and I have been friends since my Sweet 16! Over 15 years of friendship, adventures, and growing up makes it feel like, even though life happens and we have kids and responsibilities that keep us busy, it’s like no time has passed. She is the kind of friend you hang out in sweats and eat Reese’s peanut butter cups and talk about anything.
Father of the Bride
My dad, aka “Silver Fox”, “El Presidente”, “Aqua Squad Leader”. My dad has always been a fun, upbeat, sarcastic force in my life. You can always count on him to crack jokes but we all know he’s a sentimental teddy bear who loves his family with everything in him…. As long as he can make fun of them! 🤣 All jokes aside, my dad is the kind of guy who would get me flowers, balloons and a teddy bear on Valentine’s Day when I was a kid. If I told him the night before a project was due at 9pm, he would drive me to staples to get everything I needed. And if I ever needed anything, he was always front and center. Fun fact - I used to work at weddings and always cried at the father daughter dances. Just wait for ours!!
Mother of the Bride
My mom is the cute one that looks like she could be my sister who is always the life of the party. No matter where she is, she always knows how to have a good time. She is creative, artistic, and can mix up a lyric or two. Fun fact, my dad Steve who is officiating our ceremony named his Officiant Company, “One Winged Dove” after my mom got the lyrics to the song wrong. There were many other botched songs to follow, lol.
Mother of the Bride
Sheryl is my mom too, lucky me that I have TWO! She wears her heart on her sleeve, will always be there for us and loves to go all out for our family. Sheryl knows almost everyone and becomes friends with everyone because she is just that fun! I can always count on Sheryl to answer my call and talk. Oh, and I can always count on her making double the food at every event she and my dad host. She is thoughtful and always around for advice. Fun fact - she calls my mom her ex wife, they hang out at our parties. They’re cool. ♥️
Father of the Bride
Steve is not only my dad, but he is also Officiating our ceremony. I’ll never forget when Steve took the door off of the hinges in high school after I slammed it. He sure means what he says and he warned me! Steve came into my life when I was 9. He is smart and definitely a jokester. Besides his novelty shirts, pranks, and sense of humor, he’s taught me that even when my homework was hard, he could read the textbook and help me figure it out, if I need to borrow something 3 times it’s time to buy it for myself, and when it comes to my husband - I should always let him go golfing with him the guys.
Ring Bearer
Gavin has ALWAYS wanted to be a ring bearer so his day has finally come! Not only will Gavin be bringing the rings, but he will also be walking his baby sister down the aisle. He takes this job very seriously. Gavin is a silly, smart, and sentimental kid. He loves quading, riding bikes, snuggling up in pjs with his mom to a movie, food, and anything outside! He has been looking forward to this wedding since he knew Andrew was the one for me…. And the one for him. Gavin has embraced Andrew as his dad all by his own choice. The two of them have grown into a duo leaving me to be the third wheel sometimes. When he’s not making sure everyone is in the right place during the wedding ceremony, Gavin will be breakdancing on the dance floor, likely missing his tie, shirt unbuttoned and jacket missing. He will be such a fun ring bearer and I can’t wait to capture the moments of pure joy! 🥹
Flower Girl
Addison is our sassy rock star of a flower girl!
Best Man
Jeff is my older brother by 8 years. He is probably going to be the tallest guy in the room so you can't miss him! Jeff has always been into sports, traveling (wherever he can surf) and even started his own successful surfing and rental business on Long Beach Island. I asked Jeff to be my Best Man because he is a big part of my life and I know I can count on him. If there was any time I needed someone to talk to, Jeff was always there for me.
