Wedding Party
Daniella Saydi
Matron of Honor
Where we met: Daniella is my older sister by almost 6 years and therefore doubles as my second mom 🤓 As adults, she is my best friend and someone with whom I can discuss any topic, from the color of the bridesmaids’ earrings to Taylor Swift’s latest album, and everything in between! 🩷 When she’s not preoccupied with listening to her little sister’s random 5-minute-long voice memos throughout the day, she’s working as a pediatrician and raising two of my favorite babies in the whole world!
Alexandra Christie
Bridesmaid
Where we met: freshman year of high school. Alex and Nicole both attended the same elementary school, so I got to know Alex through Nicole’s introduction. Alex has always been a sweetheart and a friend to those around her and I’m so lucky to have her in my life! Despite going to colleges in different states, the three of us planned trips to visit each other at our various college campuses and as adults, we try to plan reunion trips every so often 🩵
Katrina Ramos
Bridesmaid
Where we met: freshman year at the University of Florida, where we both joined Kappa Kappa Gamma. Kat and I lived together in-house during our last two years at UF 🩵 These days, Kat is back in Tampa in her third year of CRNA school. Although we aren’t roommates anymore, our boyfriends ended up rooming together for two years during med school. Small world 😎
Kayla Kiblinger
Bridesmaid
Where we met: at Kayla’s birth. As cousins who are only 24 days apart and growing up only an hour away from each other, we spent most weekends and entire summers together, alternating from Boca, Hobe Sound, and even Peru 🩵
Nicole Grant
Bridesmaid
Where we met: the first day of our freshman year of high school. Nicole complimented my earrings (and teeth) during morning chapel and we have been best friends ever since! Fast forward to present day, Nicole is in her second year of her orthodontist residency - which explains the teeth compliment 🤣 Nicole and I both rushed Kappa Kappa Gamma at our respective colleges, making us “sisters” too 🩵
Peyton Kelgard
Bridesmaid
Where we met: both of our boyfriends started med school together in Clearwater, where we met each other and a few other ladies who also understood what it was like to date a medical student - and thus the Real Housewives of Nova group chat was born. Thanks to this initial shared life experience, Peyton and I realized we share many other things in common (including but not limited to a deep love for Taylor Swift, hot girl walks on Bayshore, comfort re-watching New Girl, and more). Thanks for giving me such a great pal, Nova!!! 🩷

Selah Saydi
Flower Girl
Selah is Gabby’s 5-year-old niece and one of her favorite people in the whole wide world. Selah is a ray of sunshine and she’s sweet, intelligent, funny, and feisty in the best way possible 🩷 Currently, she enjoys talking about Taylor Swift with her Gigi, learning how to play the piano, and discussing flower girl responsibilities/wedding planning with the bride and groom 💒
Shiloh Payne
Flower Girl
Shiloh is Collin’s 8-year-old niece who lives in Orlando, FL. Collin and Gabby actually got to be at the hospital at Shiloh’s birth the days after she was born and have enjoyed countless outings with her and her parents at parks, restaurants, and Disney Springs. Shiloh is sweet, thoughtful, and very intelligent. She loves to do arts and crafts, play Roblox with her dad and hang out with her friends and family and her dog, Rue 🩵
Leo Payne
Ring Bearer
Leo is Collin’s 4-year-old nephew. He is most often seen with a huge smile on his face, usually striking up conversations with random people he encounters in various places. We bet he will be quite social and make many friends during the wedding reception! 👋🏼
Zayn Saydi
Ring Bearer
Zayn is Gabby’s 3-year-old nephew. For the first year and a half of his life, we thought he was going to be a Zen, chill little man. As his curly hair grew, his feisty little personality did as well🧑🏻🦱 Zayn loves to entertain people and make them smile and laugh - we know he and Leo will leave an impression on our guests when they walk down the aisle!
