Wedding Party

Michelle

Maid of Honor

Occupation: Michelle currently attends Florida Gulf Coast University studying Occupational Therapy. Favorite memory with the bride: “when Julia was like 17 and would drive 12 year old me and Kelsey to get ice cream while we would screamed & acted as obnoxious as possible in the back seat.” Brides favorite memory with Michelle: one time, I was trying to leave the house before Michelle got home because I wanted to wear her shoes out. She got home early and we were fighting over the shoes when I noticed her jacket was zipped up to her chin. So I said “unzip your jacket,” and said, “no.” And when she finally did, she was wearing my shirt. Also, she was wearing Mom’s jacket. My BFF. My #1 girl. My baby sister. There isn’t enough space to talk about it, this site cuts me off at 800 character

Abby

Bridesmaid

How we met: Our mothers, Millicent and Mariann, have been best friends since they were 10 years old. Abby and Julia were born less than a month apart. Favorite memory with the Bride: “My favorite memories with Julie are the Dondero-Whitaker family vacations. From exploring Chinatowns from coast to coast to spending time down the shore at Long Beach Island.” Abby is my first and oldest best friend. We’ve been best friends since they day we met. Her family is my second family, and we spent every summer vacation together. We did everything together, like ice skating lessons, learning to swim, and being too scared to ride roller coasters together. One day we will live close enough together to continue our families New Year’s Eve traditions.

Jackie

Bridesmaid

Favorite memory of the Bride- I literally cannot decide. Maybe it's when we thought you were a bear outside the tent and gave you the name Julie Bear. Maybe it's all the fall out boy concerts we've been to together. Maybe it's the trip to Philadelphia where I officially joined the Dondero family. All the puzzle nights and late night guitar hero??? When you took me to see Up for my 18th bday when my mom ditched me for a concert. Maybe it's just that you've been by my side for literally ever and are the only person who knows the extent of my family trauma and taught me that the things they do aren't normal??? Jackie’s favorite memory of me is so long that I can’t write much more but just so we all remember she’s the reason Andrew and I met!!!

Marie

Bridesmaid

Pets name: Milo & Zoe Favorite Memories with the couple: Once Upon a Time nights at the Sparta house, the trip we took to Florida and wound up kayaking through the zoo, the endless giggles at Andrew’s Hallmark Movie birthday party. Marie has been a close friend of ours for many years (Thank you Abby). We’ve gone on many adventures together - from camping throughout NJ, to taking day trips to NYC, also visiting Abby when she lived in IN, and many more. She was Julie’s baking partner a Cupcake Wars Challenge against Julie’s sister Michelle and her friend Kelsey… J & M obviously won. We know we’re bound to have many laughs when we spend time with Marie - that’s one of the things we love the most about her. We are thrilled to have her by our sides on our special day.

Zehra

Bridesmaid

Pets Name: Boss and Glory Occupation: High School Biology Teacher How we met: Sat next to each other in class on the first day of grad school. Confessed a dark secret to each other (we were both from Sussex County.) Found out we lived less than a mile apart, and we were inseparable for the rest of grad school. Favorite Memory with the Couple: It can’t be repeated here, so we will just say all the Emo Nights in Brooklyn that we attend regularly. Zehra is my partner in crime friend. We are always there to bail each other out of the most ridiculous situations. Of course we became best friends, who else would yell about molecular biology at a Giants tailgate at 10 in the morning.

Melissa

Officiant

Pet’s Names: Caroline and Luke Bride’s favorite memories with Melissa: 1. Rave of Thrones with DJ Hodor. The night we became best friends. 2. One day in April 2020, at 7:30 am, Melissa arrived at LabCorp with a QuickCheck breakfast sandwich and a monster, and I asked he to marry me. She than proceeded to train the latest batch of new hires on COVID testing. Then we hid in a closet and played animal crossing for 20 minutes. (We were caught by Bryan Schwab. He was very disappointed in us.) Melissa is probably my soul mate, that why she’s marrying me! Fun Fact, she is partially responsible for me getting the job at LabCorp. She facebook stalked me and saw I had a Pokémon as my profile picture and asked the manager to hire to me so she could have a new friend.
