Even a Blind Squirrel Finds an Acorn
Wedding Party
Allison Rupprecht
Maid of Honor
Allison has been by my side, near and dear to me, since i was 18 months old. Growing up we spent countless summer pool days together, and every summer a trip to the beach together. Allison resides in Hilton Head, South Carolina. We have been traveling to see each other since I was in 5th grade. No matter the time inbetween, it’s like we never left. She is my gardening influencer, and my true tale of time and distance not being an issue
Kara Bozarelli
Matron of Honor
Kara is my little sister. We didn’t always like each other, but the older we got the closer we grew. She is my cove of safety, my piece of peace, and the only person who will tell me I’m batshit crazy and to get my shit together. I was lucky to stand by her side in 2021 at her wedding, and I’m even more lucky that she will stand by me for mine
Marissa Machinski
Bridesmaid
Marissa and I met in highschool, but our friendship didn’t kick off until a few years after. We rekindled our friendship on facebook, when she asked if I knew anywhere to get good coffee. It was that moment I knew I had a lifelong friend. We have shared many laughs and cries over the years. I was lucky to stand by her side in 2022 at her wedding, and I am so excited for her to stand by mine! She is the Big Mac to my Value Meal, and the Chestnut to my Praline
Cassandra Mongelluzzo
Bridesmaid
Cassie and I were neighbors when we first met. One day I had a knock on my door and before I could get up to answer the door FLINGS OPEN and THIS MAN walks in with this little blonde girl behind him. I freeze in fear. They introduce themselves and say they work with my brother and proceed to sit down to hang out and drink coffee. Who knew that first meeting would lead to over 10 years of friendship and many stories to tell. I will stand by her side May 16th, and i’m static to have her by mine. Cassie is my ray of sunshine, and the warm hug of a cold day
Emily Gillie
Bridesmaid
Emily and I met back in 2019 when we were both going thru the height of the spiral of our lives. Break ups, late night talks, and dancing until the sun came up helped shape our futures into solid friends. Emily is my strong friend, in strength and mind. I was honored to be asked to stand by her side May 1st for her wedding, and I’m elated to have her by mine. If the world ever goes to complete shit, you bet your ass I’m sticking with her.
Kristie Murdock
Bridesmaid
I met Kristie in back in highschool, but our friendship didn’t bloom until a few years later. We went to go get burgers and milkshakes and couldn’t understand why we didn’t hang out sooner. We are two craft peas in a Michaels pod. She has the kindest soul, a listening ear, and a judgement free space to just be myself
Victoria Jennings
Bridesmaid
Victoria is my artistic friend, and my friend that started my love of plants. If you’ve traveled around the city, she has painted storefront windows and beautiful murals all around town. She is my space of comfort and relaxation, and someone I am so happy to have by my side.
