Matron of Honor
Rachel quickly became the big sister I never had when she started dating my brother 14 years ago. Rachel has been there for me through every important moment and stood by my side. I know I can always depend on my sissy to cheer me up when I'm sad, listen to me when I need to vent, or simply just be there for a sissy hug. Growing up, I always hoped that I had a sister that I could depend on. I am so lucky to have Rachel and feel incredibly blessed to have her as my matron of honor on my special day. Rachel is not only my sissy but is also my best friend. Everyone needs a "Rachel" in their lives because she is the best!
Best Man
Costa, my brother, I don't even know where to begin. From our first time hanging out at the pizza party at Northley 15 years ago to being the two greatest food runners Barnabys has ever seen, to the Honda nights, to the endless Widener nights and nights out at the bars, we always had a bond that can't be broken. I'm honored that you are my best man and look forward to you being by my side yet again. Love ya, brother!
Bridesmaid
Joce and I met on the first day of our college classes and quickly became best friends. Over the last 9 years, we have created so many memories that will last a lifetime. From college parties to standing by Joce's side on her wedding day, we have truly been through it all together. Whenever I need advice or guidance, Joce is my first phone call, as she is truly my best friend and sister. I am lucky to have Jocey J in my life and feel so grateful to WCU for bringing us together.

Mikey V, we've had quite the journey as friends. From meeting each other at football practice for the Brookhaven Jets to the days playing football with the neighbors, the Sixers process games, the PlayStation days, and all the trips we did, you were always the " reliable" one that got us where we needed to go and when. You have always been my sidekick. I look forward to celebrating this moment in my life with you.
Bridesmaid
Chelsey is the cousin I looked up to most growing up, as she always had the latest trends and best outfits. Every time we went to Chelsey's house, I begged my parents to sleep over, as she was like a sister to me. Over the last few years, Chels and I have gotten closer and have created so many memories together. I am thankful for Chelsey, as she is the cousin I am most like, as we have our "Pyne attitudes". I am so excited to have Chelsey stand by my side on my special day.

Well, I always remember asking my parents for a little brother growing up... so at least now I am gaining a big brother, and an even better friend, better late than never. From day one you were always protective of Alyssa, and I respected that. Thank you for welcoming me into the family, and I look forward to having you by my side through life events.
Bridesmaid
Carina is the little sister I never had and my bestie cousin. Throughout our lives, Carina and I have continued to stay close, despite our ten-year age gap. Carina makes me laugh, always keeps me informed of the latest fashion trends, and always tells me the truth. Carina is the "little sister" I can turn to when I need help or when I need her to explain the trends my students are talking about. Carina is not only my cousin, but is also one of my favorite people. I am so thankful for Carina and love that she is my "mini me". Whether it's our attitude or how sweet we can be, Carina is exactly like me, but 10 years younger.

Dave, I think you might have been the first guy with a beard in middle school... but we became friends on the school bus and the rest remains a story for another day. All through the CN skate palace days, the nights at Gordons, and the adventures we've been on in our 20s, you've always been ready to have a good time. You always bring a positive vibe and good energy to wherever you are and that's why you're a great friend. I look forward to you being a part of our special day!
Bridesmaid
Selena is my Canadian sister and although we are 407 miles apart, she is my best friend! Selena is the person I call when I need to vent about school or discuss the Eagles game. Although we're long distance best friends, we never miss a beat and can pick up right where we left off. I am thankful for the Mexico trip for our aunt and uncle that made us best friends. Our Facetime dates are my favorite, as we share the latest news in our lives and vent about teaching. I am so thankful for Selena's friendship, as I know she is only a phone call away and will answer whenever I need her.

Gordon, since the days in intro to Digital Design freshman year, we always talked about something. We always had good conversations whether that was debating the NBA, or the NFL. From there we became good friends, and the memories are countless at the Mano household that I am forever thankful for. I look forward to making more memories as life goes on and I am glad to have you by my side on our special day!
Bridesmaid
Bri and I met in our sorority and quickly became best friends! Bri shares my love for cats, the Eagles, and having a good time. We both have birthdays in May, making us both a Taurus. We share the same attitude and are a lot alike, which made us click immediately in college. I am so happy Bri and I became friends. Bri constantly shows up when I need her, lends a listening ear, and always cheers me up when I need it. I am so thankful to our sorority for bringing us together.
Ring Bearer
Landon is our favorite little cousin and we are excited to have him as our ring bearer. Landon loves McDonald's, just like we do, and loves playing with Legos. Landon is going to be the best ring security on our special day!
