Rachel & Jake
Wedding Party
Jennifer Gregorio
Maid of Honor
I first met Rachel at the Melrose-Wakefield hospital after I was born. Since that fateful day, we have become best friends who happen to look a lot like each other. We've shared more than just DNA - a bedroom, a stage, a car, and many wonderful memories. I am so excited to share this incredible day with Rachel and my new brother, Jake!
Dan Warshawsky
Best Man
Even though many people think we're twins, or that I'm older - I'm the younger brother. Thankful to have a role model like Jake to look up to my whole life!
Amanda Gregorio
Maid of Honor
Similar to Jen, I met Rachel after I was born. The 7 year difference between us makes Rachel sort of a second mother to me, but she's a cool mom. She also happens to be one of my very best friends and I am so happy she found someone to make her as happy as Jake makes her.

I met Jake, or Chuck as I like to call him, back in 2014 when he was moving into an apartment I lived in with a friend from Penn State. Our roommate Zach, was a childhood friend of Jake's and offered him a place to stay for his first couple months in Boston. Thanks to Zach's 12 hour days at Shake Shack and both of us being new to Boston, we quickly became close friends. So close, that we even introduced each other to our now wives (assuming this day goes well). All that being said, I couldn't be happier to see Jake, or Chaz as I like to call him, move onto to the next chapter of his life with such a fantastic partner in Rachel.

Being Jake's little sister, I've known him since the day I was born. Thankfully, he only had to live a bleak 18 months before my arrival. #blessed! Jake is the best big brother a girl could ask for (10/10 would def recommend) and I'm so happy he's found his perfect soulmate in Rachel.

Jake was my freshman year roommate at Brandeis. We were blindly matched together through the baseball team. At first I wasn't sure about him (because I don't like anybody), but our mothers were extremely confident. It's been 11 years; Jake and I have been brothers ever since. We've been through a ton together and I couldn't be more proud to be his friend.

Rachel and I grew up down the street from each other and have been inseparable since elementary school! The closeness continued throughout high school and college where we discovered our insanely similar tastes in food, shows, workout classes, and countless other categories. From notes passed in high school hallways, to long talks sitting through traffic on the way to Boston College, to Bachelor Mondays on the couch, and heart-to-hearts at funky foodie spots, I can’t picture my life without Rachel and couldn’t be more honored to be by her side at her wedding!

Jake has been my best friend since 8th grade. The only dude that really gets me besides my brother, and he's always had my back and supported me through some of the not-so-great times in my life. I cherish the relationship that I have with Jake and his entire family.

Rachel and I first met in first grade at Fox Hill Elementary School. Our friendship truly blossomed in 5th grade when Rachel invited me over for sledding in her backyard. We ate snow covered in maple syrup and I remember thinking "this girl is kind of weird!" - we've been friends ever since! We share a love of dance; some of my favorite memories with Rachel involve dancing in school musicals, and co-captaining our High School's Dance Squad. I am thrilled for Rachel and Jake and am so excited to be included in their celebration. Needless to say, I can't wait to dance at the wedding!

I've known Jake since 2002 - we met through baseball after I played (and beat) his team in the midget baseball league championship. Jake and my brother Sam were always very close and I would tag along if they were hanging out. I eventually because very close with Jake as well and we now talk a few times a week. Jake is like a brother and his family is like my family. I'm grateful to be able to call Jake a close friend.
