Wedding Party
Sabrina Struve

Kristi & Sabrina met in medical school and trained at the same hospital for their residencies. They have been a strong support system for each other throughout their training, and now get together frequently with Paul and Justin (her husband) to share a dinner or win bar trivia. Paul made sure to include Sabrina and Justin on their engagement day; Justin captured the moment, and Sabrina surprised Kristi afterwards!
Chris Maki
Co-Best Man
Paul & Chris have been best friends since age 2! They used to live around the block from one another and even after local moves, college, cross-country moves they remain best friends.

When they were kids, they planned to be each other's Best Man, and now that dream is a reality!
Cynthia Gaudet

Kristi & Cynthia met in fellowship in Boston!
