Jennifer & Michael
I Do Crew
Madison Hogan
Maid of Honor
Maddie and I met the summer before college in what I not so fondly refer to as "I.E.Prison." Little did I know that a program I was so miserable attending, would provide me friends for life and two members of our wedding party. Despite me transferring to college in Boston, Maddie and I grew even closer building an unbreakable bond that would soon take us to Denver, where we lived the most adventurous year of travel and shenanigans. Although Maddie now lives on Cape Cod, distance proves to be just a number for this dynamic duo. When Mikey proposed, there was no question as to who I wanted by my side as I begin this new chapter in life. The Ann to my Leslie, the peanut butter to my jelly, (even though she's never had one) my beautiful sister and Maid of Honor, Maddie.
Connor Allgood
Best Man
Connor and I go way back. We grew up playing sports and even pitched against one another in baseball. Although we went to college far from each other and now live many states apart, we have still found a way to stay close. Guys don't usually spend time talking on the phone, but Connor and I make sure to have monthly calls to catch up on each others lives. I went to Panama City Beach in college for Spring Break and stayed with Connor in South Carolina on the way to and from Florida. We drank moonshine slushies, danced to live music, and Connor introduced me to his college family. He even let me burn the new Adele album. Connor is someone I know I will be close with my whole life. I also can't wait to see what he does for the Bachelor party.
Brooke Parsons
Bridesmaid
It was Halloween, 2012. Maddie's friend Hannah was visiting from Massachusetts and asked if we could meet up with her friend from college for a drink. A devil, a pirate, and a flapper walked into a bar to have a drink with a loofah. (Go ahead, picture it) A few whisky's and a PBR tall boy shotgun later, the devil and loofah knew this was the beginning of a wonderfully weird friendship. 7 years, 2 states, and 1 country later, I couldn't imagine my life without Brooke. Now residing in Italy where I vicariously live through her, Brooke is living her best life traveling the world. Of course, her travels needed to include a trip to Colorado to stand with me as Mikey and I say I do. My insanely kind, wonderfully weird werb, Brooke.
Ivan Medina
Groomsman
Ivan and I studied film together at Endicott College and quickly became inseparable. We partnered in classes to make documentaries and made videos for fun on the side. We worked together on campus our junior summer and spent afternoons kayaking in the ocean and eating the many delicious subs that Beverly had to offer. Ivan has visited Peterborough, and I went to Mexico City to visit him last year. Even though both hometowns are different, the bond between us is one for the books. We live in different countries now, but we stay connected playing Grand Theft Auto and will somehow find a way to become successful filmmakers one day.
Joanna Gillis
Bridesmaid
2 Carole's and their crying 18 year olds was all it took for this beautiful friendship to blossom. Jo and I met during the famed "I.E.Prison," which neither of us were thrilled to be participating in to put it lightly. After I sat and sobbed in the North Adams Walmart parking lot, pleading with my mother to take me home, she introduced me to Carol and her daughter, Joanna. Who also, was less than thrilled to be in North Adams. (Trust me, if you saw it then you'd understand) We couldn't have known at the time, but I for one will be eternally grateful for the Carole's, IEP, and the lifelong friendship both had fostered between Joanna and myself. 12 years and an abundance of history later, I could not imagine this day without Joanna by my side. My beautifully bubbly, Baby Grinch, Joanna.
David Eneguess
Groomsman
David and I have been friends since we were three. We met taking ski lessons at Temple Mountain and have stayed close over the years. David was always a daredevil growing up and I always respected his lack of fear when it came to our adventures, like jumping off the roof of our high school on his bike. David and I spent a lot of time together on the lacrosse field, shredding pow, getting in trouble around town, and exploring the woods of New England. I introduced David to his girlfriend Kelly, one of my best friends from college. I can't wait to be able to celebrate with them both at my wedding.
Jessica Sullivan
Bridesmaid
What I love about my relationship with Jess is that we have all the benefits of being sisters, without the ability for me to annoy her growing up. I hit the sister-in-law jackpot when it comes to Jess, for real. Some are lucky enough to get along with their sibling-in-laws, I am incredibly fortunate to be able to call her my friend. Having Jess as a part of this special day means more to me than one could know, I am so grateful to have her in my life. Whether it be recipe sharing, our shared love of Scandinavian design, or swooning over Antoni Porowski, we never run out of topics to talk about. My favorite cat lady, forever Bachelor Nation confidant, the big sister I always wanted, Jess.
Daniel Fox
Groomsman
Daniel Thomas Fox is like the brother I never had. We grew up having countless sleepovers and making YouTube videos around my house. Back then, I could have sworn that we would grow up to be the next Matt and Ben. From playing on the lacrosse field together to countless game nights and sunrise hikes, Dan and I have developed a friendship unlike most. I can't imagine not having Dan stand by my side in October and for all of life's adventures.
Zachary Green
Groomsman
Zach and I have known each other since third grade. We spent countless hours playing music together and I always hoped to play in a band with him. We have a mutual love for the arts and it's great to see Zach still pursuing his dream. We played laser tag in downtown Peterborough, scootered down one of the steepest streets in town, and have eaten more bagels together than anyone ever should. The first time we got drunk was on Passover and I will never forget going from the cool, sneaky kids we thought we were that night, to the hungover, miserable kids we were the next morning. Zach is my Jewish brother and I can't wait to have this mensch stand by my side.
