Michal Lauren Kumpf

Michal planned my full bachelorette trip in 24 hours with an itinerary, budget, and google spreadsheet. If that doesn’t tell you the type of friend Michal is, then I don’t know what will. That girl has talent and a heart of gold!

Paige Alan Sullivan
Bridesmaid
Paige--she is beauty and grace, clumsy and messy, simple and dramatic. (Only as her college roommate am I allowed to say that.) Please tell her at the wedding her film photos of Ryan and me are amazing---Oh wait, do not do that because she is introverted and will never forgive me for giving her attention.

Molly is the best sister-in-law ever! I met Molly on John’s 2nd date when we played croquet in my parent’s front yard. Why John made this the second date? No clue…but I’m glad Molly agreed to a 3rd date with him because the rest is history!
Josh Dajin Shin

Kiki Burns Wallace
House Party
Victoria and I used to text each other "WWKD?" because Kiki is perfection -- and is the reason why I am imitating her by having my dream wedding at the Adolphus, like she did 10 years ago!
Maggie Elizabeth Galloway
House Party
Maggie is a long-time friend of mine starting way back at Bradfield elementary school. Most of my cherished childhood memories are with her. If anyone needs anesthesia at the wedding, call her!

She helped my pick out my first day of school outfit for 6th grade at Abercrombie. Now she is helping me pick out my bridal shower outfits. She is a forever big sis to me!

I mean...we have a photo of me arriving home as a baby from the hospital with Ellie holding me. Her brother is my brother's best friend. We are basically family at this point.
