Chelsea and Margarita met at a summer college course! Little did they know they would become best friends and travel buddies—from Cancun, to Miami, to Napa!🍷
Melissa Keebaugh
Bridesmaid
Chelsea and Melissa have been inseparable every since they met at work and realized they also lived in the same neighborhood! They are both still teaching at the same elementary school. Chelsea has been through all of Melissa’s major life moments—from meeting her husband (Brian) while they were all playing on an adult corn hole league, to watching their adorable 5 year old daughter grow up! Chelsea is known as Auntie Chelsea in this household :)
Sarah Zapata
Bridesmaid
Chelsea and Sarah met at the University of South Carolina! They were both music education majors! They quickly became great friends and have stayed in touch even though they are states apart.

Sarah is now married with 2 adorable boys and living in TX! Go Gamecocks!!!
