Joe & Regan
Wedding Party
Courtney DeGeorge-Allen
Matron of Honor
Courtney and I go way back, like since I was born back. Once I got old enough to understand what an older sister is there for (not just to order you around) she became someone I knew I could go to for advice and an ear who would listen. Courtney is someone I always look up to, I know I can count on and know will always be there for me. Some people have family, some people have friends. Courtney is not only my sister but also one of my best friends-best of both worlds!
Michaela Riestenberg
Matron of Honor
The first time I met Michaela we were both in orientation for Marriott. As our HR Director was going through the list of things that are prohibited, including dark nail polish (I had black nail polish on) and unnatural hair dye (Michaela had part of her hair dyed pink), we both looked at each other and smiled. At that point I knew our friendship would last forever. Whether it’s a shoulder to cry on, needing advice or someone to take a shot with, she has always been there in a heartbeat and I know she always will.
Taylor Bryan
Bridesmaid
When I met Taylor in high school it was as if we had known each other forever. She was the most freeing, open, and welcoming person you could meet. If I was planning to hang out with Taylor I knew it would be a great night because her positivity and incredible humor never failed, always brightening those around her despite anything she could possibly be going through. A true friend you know you will never lose. She is someone I know I can always count on no matter what happens in life.
Hanna Cook
Bridesmaid
Our siblings were friends so technically Hanna and I have been friends since we were in the womb. In and out of school everyone would always get us mixed up, think we were sisters or even twins (had to be the blonde hair) since we were always together. I will never forget the day that we got into trouble in Ianelli’s class for chatting too much (probably for the 100th time) so we were ‘slightly’ separated and still managed to communicate with each other and giggle getting into more trouble. Still to this day even though we are apart we still manage to stay in touch.
Sam Denman
Bridesmaid
Sam and I started our friendship way back in first grade as little tots and were inseparable. We somehow convinced our parents to allow us to spend just about every other weekend at each other's houses for months at a time. Sam and I have had so many adventures together from making “poopy soupy” in tree stumps after it rained and playing with worms outside at recess in grade school to me getting to be a part of her wedding and watching her become an amazing mom. Now she gets to be a part of my special day too.
Emmy Egli
Bridesmaid
Emmy and I met during one of the hardest times of our lives-Nursing school. We cried and celebrated all of the things we made it through. We always had each other's back and kept each other going. Without Emmy, I am not sure I would have made it through the things we did. A lot of people say if you live with someone your relationship will change in a bad way. I couldn’t disagree with that more. Emmy and I lived together for several years and came out of it stronger together and apart. We have physically gone our separate ways after college but still stay close. Distance means so little when someone means so much.
