Holly RateHolly Rate
Maid of Honor
Holly and I met in 1st grade in girl scouts. We became much closer after getting into a fight on the playground in elementary. Since then, Holly has always been there for me during the darkest and brightest times of my life. I will always cherish and laugh with the memory of camping at Apple River and me hanging on for dear life going down some rapids.
Kristin HomanKristin Homan
Bridesmaid
Met Kristin about 16 years ago through her husband David who i worked with. Kristin and I immediately clicked and we feed off of each others weirdness. There is nothing but laughter and smiles when we are together. It can get pretty loud and rowdy when we are together.
Cassie AndrusCassie Andrus
Bridesmaid
Not only my cousin but also I consider her my little sister. We practically grew up with each other and were with each other a lot especially during summer breaks. We both have a love for the ocean. I will never forget our family get together in Sea Isle City NJ and us crashing during parasailing right after the instructor mentioned what to do in case of a crash. I remember you freaking me out by humming The Jaws song while we were waiting to be rescued.
Eryn BensonEryn Benson
Bridesmaid
My future sister in law!!!! When I met Eryn I noticed how much of a compassionate and faithful person she is. I adored how she interacted with my son Landon from the start showing what a great Auntie she will be. I have already had the pleasure of feeling like a big sister to her when I have seen how chaotic it can be being the only girl with 4 older brothers.
Kelley LancelleKelley Lancelle
Bridesmaid
I met this amazing spirit of a woman when our sons played on the same baseball team. She was an amazing baseball mom to cheer with and now an amazing friend to cheer life with. We both share the love of Halloween and talking and being with her is like we have known each other forever.
Mellisa OrgasMellisa Orgas
Bridesmaid
Melissa has been my favorite hairdresser since a teen. I will always remember when she took fake hair and pretended that my hair was falling out because of how much I was dying it. She has seen me with every hairstyle and hair color imaginable. We recently got reunited when I went to baseball practice and found out both of our boys were playing on the same team. I am very blessed and happy that we are now in each other's lives again.
