Matron of Honor
Jenn... where to even begin?? So she started out as my babysitter when I was younger (there is a 7 year age gap) we had many tea parties together. Eventually, this blossomed into her becoming like a sister to me. She is the person who helped me get ready for school dances, the person who I cried to over boys, the person who I can always be myself around, and a true life long best friend. She introduced me to Jesus, and taught me how to be a better person and that has changed my life. I cannot wait to have her by my side when I say I do!
Best Man
I met Noah in 5th grade while participating in elementary school band practice. We both played the trumpet and were homeschooled, so we made a connection! During high school we lost touch but I ran into him at our graduation, I found that we had a common interest in fishing and started hanging out again. We have since then spent many late nights playing COD video games, talking about our Marvel and DC obsession, or driving up to Pulaski, NY to go salmon fishing (which, by the way, Noah has far surpassed me in fishing skills!). Besides, he has a way of reminding me of all the dumb things I've done, is that not what best man speeches are for?!
Maid of Honor
I met Allie at orientation group at Millersville. We became inseparable pretty much immediately and I was in her dorm so much that her RA thought I lived there, oops! She introduced me to 4 of my other bridesmaids and the best friend group I could ask for. She is so funny, has the biggest heart, and is always someone I can turn to when life gets hard. We are so different but I think that’s what makes our friendship so interesting. We love to bond over our shared love for Harry Potter and tv shows. I’m so excited she’ll be a part of my special day!
Groomsman
I met Josef in a friend group that does not exist anymore, but thats okay cause I gained one really cool friend. Josef and his family are from Georgia and moved here a few years ago. We like to joke about how we feel like broken old men, since both of us have recovered from leg injuries that never seem to heal! He loves boating and fishing, (I sense a running theme here...) and we have also enjoyed going snowboarding together on occasion. He's also my favorite happy hour buddy! He is one great guy and I know he always has my back, couldn't ask for a better man to stand by me.
Bridesmaid
Alicia is one of the kindest souls you will ever meet. She has a huge heart for people and for her students, (she also happens to be an amazing teacher!) This girl has shown me what true strength in the face of adversity looks like. We have both experienced some highs and lows over the course of our friendship and she has always been someone I can count on. She also happens to be a dance teacher and will most likely be killing it somewhere on the dance floor, so look out!
Groomsman
I met Noah when I started volunteering at Faith Middle School. We became close with our common desire to reach the younger generation. He is a funny guy, and with the help of a hair straightener, he bares an uncanny resemblance to Shaggy. His Shaggy and Scooby Doo voice impressions are excellent, and in comparison we wonder why we love food so much! We share a love for snowboarding and laughter is always inevitable with him around.
Bridesmaid
Jackie is one of the kindest, most genuine people I know. She is so easy to talk to, and makes friends with everyone she meets! She has been a true friend over the years since college, and I can’t imagine my special day without her by my side.
Groomsman
Let’s just say we go way back...We spent most of our childhood exploring the woods, making forts, and riding bikes. He’s probably the most competitive person I know, and once he sets his mind to something, he’s sure to accomplish it. One of our better ideas was creating our own snow jump in the backyard!
Bridesmaid
Rach is the friend I never knew I needed. We first bonded in World Oceans class, but please don’t ask us what we learned because I’m still trying to figure that out... She is so patient, kind, hilarious without trying and loyal. We lived together for two years in college and she was always there for me anytime I needed a hug, a shoulder to cry, or just someone to watch Netflix with.

Bridesmaid
I lived with Kaila for two years in college and they were probably two of my favorite years. She is so funny, compassionate, kind, and always down for a spontaneous adventure. She is someone that is really good at meeting people where they’re at, and encouraging them to be the best version of themselves.

Hannah and I met through a young adult event at church. She is one of the most loyal people I know, and is the type of person that makes life an adventure, no matter what you’re doing together! She even took our beautiful engagement pictures and managed to make it such a fun and comfortable experience. She is someone I can talk to for hours about anything, and I am so glad she will be by my side.
