Maid of Honor
Jayla and I have been best friends since we were in the third grade. Together we have played junior basketball, vacationed (next stop Japan), attended music festivals/concerts, and accomplished many major milestones. Jayla has always been one of my biggest supporters, she tells everyone she meets that her best friend is a doctor (not quite yet, Jay). Jayla has a contagious smile and is always the life of the party, it is my pleasure to have her as my maid of honor!
Best Man
When I asked Jeff what to write here, he said "when we first met, I did not like him, then in typical man fashion we became (best-uh, really good) friends."
Bridesmaid
Tiffany has been one of my best friends for years now. She got stuck with me when Jayla became her roommate after high school. Since then, we have had many girl's nights, usually involving a horror movie. I feel like she is someone that I can talk about anything with, she is always able to provide guidance. Also, when writing about Tiff it was essential for me to highlight her achievements as a dog and bird mom. She loves so deeply and is so loyal to her people (and her pets).
Groomsman
Jake was fully inducted into the friend group around the same time that Jeff and I began dating. Shortly thereafter, the boys of the group had implemented standing poker nights to get to know each other better. Jeff often told them he was going to miss those nights in order to spend more time with me (sorry guys). Then Jake got some of the friend group into snowboarding, and now Jeff regularly chooses that over me (just kidding, kind of...). Jake is always fun to be around, he keeps everyone laughing and is always down to do something adventurous!
Bridesmaid
I am one of Carley's biggest fans! She is hilarious, kind, caring, talented, and beautiful. She is someone I can call at all hours of the night to chat about anything (she's a little insomniac). She is constantly making me smile with her witty commentary and our inside jokes. She also has the most calming presence, and I am certain she will be my rock on the big day!
Bridesmaid
Jayde being fifteen months younger than me has led to everything being a competition from the start. Additionally, we have done almost everything together, gymnastics, dance, swim lessons, babysitting, cheerleading, cake decorating... You get the picture... She excelled in every activity. She is very talented and so creative. So, naturally she had to be standing beside me on my wedding day (behind the scenes she’ll also be my makeup artist and cake decorator)! Love ya, Jayde!
Something Blue Crew
Allison is one of my closest friends. She selflessly, volunteered herself as support during one of the most difficult times of my life. Since then, she has been there for me in so many ways! Together we talk through true crime theories and pop culture gossip. She lets me dye her hair in her kitchen and spend time with her adorable babies. Her and I have had more laughing fits than I can count, and I look forward to so many more!
Something Blue Crew
Amber Lynn and I have gone on many adventures together, each with a different story to share. She never fails to bring up an embarrassing story/memory about me (which probably says more about me than her). Throughout the years we have spent so much time together we have begun to tease each other like siblings, which is a great honor.

Sabel had the pleasure (although she may disagree, haha) of being my roommate for several years. Her and I have had many late-night conversations about everything under the sun. She is a genius and dazzles many (Miles and I, specifically) with her fun facts (usually of the bug or fish variety). She is down-to-earth and so very thoughtful. She is one of my closest friends, so shoutout Thunderbird Landing?

Where do I begin? Jenna is one of my favorite people on this planet. She is so funny and always has our group cackling. She is so creative and so talented as an artist. She is an avid bird watcher and thrives in the outdoors. She is also amazing with kiddos. Jenna is one of the people in my life I could never life without, she brings so much joy and good energy. I adore her!
Something Blue Crew
Jessica is also a lifelong friend I gained through college housing! She has a contagious smile and the sweetest energy. She is everyone's biggest supporter, and she lives for adventure. She lived out her Mamma Mia dreams in Greece (much to my envy), then she came home and married another close friend! They are welcoming their baby this summer, and I cannot wait to meet her. I am so thrilled to have Jess as a part of my family.
