Wedding Party
Melissa McBroom
Matron of Honor
When we had our first conversation 7 years ago, we flew past the pleasantries and into the real meat of life, and I knew I loved her right then. Since that day I've gotten to watch her build her life with unmatched steadiness and compassion. She's the kind of person who will drop everything and meet you in a Target parking lot so you can spill your guts and cry your eyes out. She is one of the most faithful, loyal friends a girl could hope for, and I can't wait to look back on this day when we're old and wrinkly.
Kristin Meirose
Bridesmaid
This woman is sunshine and realism rolled into one gorgeous human. We met through a mutual friend, and I was the florist at her wedding 7 years ago. At the time it seemed like a job, but I just can't seem to shake my love for her. Every time we reconnect, hours pass like nothing and I'm convinced we were made for each other. She's where I go when I need a pep talk, a cheerleader, someone to tell me exactly how it is, and someone who will curse like a sailor with me about the gross things in life.
Mallory Middleton
Bridesmaid
My entire childhood I begged my parents for a little sister. When this spitfire was born just after I turned 12, I thought, it's great to have a sister but she's so much younger than me that we'll never be super close. I'm happy to tell you that my 12 year old brain was wrong. This girl is one of my absolute favorite people in the world. I laugh harder with her than with any other human and we frequently make the same exclamations at exactly the same time. I'll do Carpool Karaoke and watch Queer Eye with her fo life.
Carey Petersen
Bridesmaid
Twenty years ago, we were super awkward homeschooled middle schoolers prank calling boys and watching historical dramas. Today, we're realists who choose to believe in love and hard-core fight for the people we care about. We've learned that building the life you want is a battlefield, and we've locked arms and marched through some dark days. Now we're celebrating each other as we each get remarried less than a year apart, and I wouldn't have it any other way. Here's to another 20 years. (I love you, Person.)
Brandon Williams
Best Man
Brandon and I figured out how much we had in common due to a random seating arrangement in 8th grade math. We have supported each other through twenty years of life's ups and downs and I couldn't ask for a better friend and brother.
Allan Desruisseaux
Groomsman
Hilarity with a great red beard. Dez always seems to keep a great outlook on life and it's happenings. He, Nate and I served together in the Marine Corps and have kept up a great friendship ever since. Smoke break, Union mandated.
Andrew May
Groomsman
Andrew and I met in high school and have since become great friends. Always upfront and unafraid to speak his mind, he has been there for me through the years and many 3 gun matches.
Nate Pepin
Groomsman
Nate served with Dez and I in the Marine Corps. A great person to have on your side, he has been a loyal friend through the years and distances, making him my favorite regifted person.
