Chey Sievers

Maid of Honor

The Bride's High School Best Friend Paige and Chey have been friends since elementary school. They’ve cheered each other on through every chapter: high school, college, new careers, and now, weddings!

Maggie Kushner

Maid of Honor

While they both live five hours apart and left IUP for new paths—Paige to Penn State and Maggie to cosmetology school (now the proud owner of Salon MBM!)—their friendship never faded. Paige knew Maggie filling the role of Maid of Honor with Chey was the only option after a few years of their close friendship.

Megan Mateer

Bridesmaid

Their time together has evolved from endless summer days swimming and dancing school to catching up over coffee at Old Crow, but their bond has remained just as strong. Paige was honored to stand by Megan’s side in her wedding this past May, and now she’s so grateful to have Megan by hers. If you see Megan possible Conversation Topics could include: Soccer, her honeymoon in Fiji, “questionable” comments her patients' families may have said to her this week, her Golden Doodle Buddy, & her recommendations on where to find the best coffee.

Amanda Clark

Bridesmaid

The Bride's College Bestie Paige met Amanda at IUP through a shared connection—they had the same roommate in different years and quickly hit it off. Though they were separated by distance, from New Jersey to Pittsburgh, Amanda has always been there to offer advice, share fashion tips, weigh in on creative projects, and recommend a good book. Paige is so excited to have Amanda by her side on such a special day. If you see Amanda possible Conversation Topics could include: Maine, the half-marathons she's ran lately, Taylor Swift, her Great Dane Oakley, the Throne of Glass series, her travels to national parks, & what she's reading (probably fantasy) on her Kindle at the moment.

Alexandra Deuel

The Bride's Bestie & Concert Buddy Paige and Lexie met by chance at a Harry Styles concert in New York City. Standing next to each other at the barricade, Paige mentioned she was from Pittsburgh, and Lexie shared she’d be moving there in a few weeks for a career opportunity. The rest is history!
