Covid bride, enough said.
Katie Sementa Clancy
Maid of Honor
Katie and Nicole are sisters and after having an arguably rough almost enemy like childhood, have grown to be more than family, but great friends. Katie enjoys long phone conversations with Nicole while in the car and Nicole enjoys attempting to dodge and push Katie off the phone. Katie loves organizing things and Nicole loves giving Katie jobs so it all works out. Katie also produced the ring bearers (the MOST adorable in Nicole's opinion.)
