Wedding Party
AJ Freno
Best Person
Micaela and AJ met before they were even born with the infamous belly bump that our Moms did when they found out they were both pregnant! From the day Micaela was born, they were best friends and have been there for each other through every stage of life. There have been countless sleepovers, vacations, and FaceTimes, and they are so excited to live 3 hours away from each other now! AJ has always been Micaela's biggest supporter, and Micaela is so honored to have AJ as her best person!
Brianne McCullough
Maid of Honor
Haley and Brianne became sisters when their parents married in 2007. From awful webkins makeovers (iykyk), to attending every concert they could in high school, then to voluntarily becoming roommates after they both graduated UCF - Brianne has been there for Haley through it all. Brianne is the best sister in the whole world and there is no one else in the world who could fulfill this honor for Haley <3
Erika Alfonsi
Bridesmaid
Micaela and Erika met during their freshman year of college at the University of Central Florida! While Micaela was waiting for the elevator, wearing her Eli Manning New York Giants jersey, Erika struck up a conversation as a fellow Giants fan. Their paths didn't cross again until a few months later, when they were randomly seated at the same table for a scholarship event. It turns out they were from the same hometown, and the rest was history! Micaela and Erika became best friends and lived together for their last two years of college, studying for countless exams, applying for professional schools, and making lasting memories. Micaela was honored to stand by Erika on her wedding day, and she cannot wait to have Erika by her side for her wedding day!
Kaitria Abbattemateo
Bridesmaid
Micaela's first memory of Kaitria was seeing a teary-eyed girl walk into the pediatric dental office (shout out Kids Choose Us Pediatric Dentistry), where she was working, trying to figure out what she wanted to do after college. Flash forward a couple of years, and their friendship and sisterhood continued to grow while they were both in dental school and pediatric dental residency at the University of Florida. Even though they don't live in the same state anymore, that does not stop their almost nightly phone calls!
Sarah Barolette
Bridesmaid
Micaela and Sarah met in the sixth grade on Team Endeavor! They instantly clicked and had the honor to grow up together. Their friendship continued to blossom throughout high school and into college, where they both attended the University of Central Florida. They truly became best friends in college, and that continued on as they both attended dental school at the University of Florida. Sarah has seen Micaela through almost every chapter of her life, and Micaela could not be more honored to have Sarah by her side on her wedding day.
Jessica Lylis
Bridesmaid
Jessica and Haley met in 2021 when Micaela and Haley started dating and they created an instant bond. Since then there have been countless birthday celebrations, holidays, and vacations spent together, cat memes, and so many laughs. The most exciting thing that they will soon share is that they will both become Cleeres in 2026! Haley couldn't possibly get married without her future sister by her side!
Maggie Rush
Bridesmaid
Maggie and Haley met in 2013 at a Bring Me the Horizon concert - and once you've done a wall of death together, you're bonded for life! From then, they've become best friends, seen countless shows together, and watched The Amazing Spider-Man 2 at least a hundred times. Maggie was also the first person that Micaela and Haley told when they started dating! There is no way that they could get married without Maggie cheering them on!
Allison Schapley
Bridesmaid
Micaela met Allison when she was five years old, when she began babysitting her and her brothers. Micaela has had the joy of watching Allison grow up and become the incredible woman she is today. Now she is in college at UCF (Micaela and Haley's alma mater) and taller than Micaela! Allison is the younger sister Micaela never had, and she could not be happier to have her as a part of this day.
Yanisa Stuart-Salas
Bridesmaid
Micaela and Yani met through the pre-dental student association during their undergraduate studies at the University of Central Florida. They went on dental mission trips to Panama and Nicaragua, and when they both got into the dental school at the University of Florida, they decided to become roommates! Micaela and Yani lived together all four years of dental school and became not only best friends but sisters. Their late-night kitchen chats will go down in history and Micaela loves to think of herself as an honorary Stuart-Salas sister!
Erika Watkins
Bridesmaid
Erika is Haley's sister-in-law and her brother's much better half. Erika is an amazing gardener, pet mom, and NYT gamer. Hunter and Erika have been an amazing example of a loving and supportive partnership. Haley is so honored to call Erika her sister and have her by her side on her big day.
Nilofer Khatri
Officiant
Dr. Nilofer Khatri will be the officiant at Micaela and Haley's wedding. Micaela met Nilo when she was 16 years old, and Nilo came to speak to her high school class about being a female pediatric dentist. Micaela went up to Nilo and said, "I want to be you when I grow up". Flash forward a few years, and Micaela became an intern at Kids Choose Us Pediatric Dentistry (and is now a pediatric dentist herself), and that is when they became "mother/daughter/sister/best friends" as they like to call it! Haley quickly became a part of the sisterhood, and the three are there to support each other through it all. It is truly the greatest honor to have Nilo marry Micaela and Haley.
