Maid of Honor
My oldest memories of my relationship with Court are of me trying to help her with anything ( as a good big sister should) and her getting increasingly mad a me for it. Although our relationship had a rocky start at a young age, she will still forever be my favorite (and only) sister. Whether we're blasting Jesse McCartney/ screaming Taylor Swift on the kitchen floor or sitting in silence I'm always glad to be around you (except when your feet smell).
Best Man
Our ten year age difference led to us having a unique bond growing up. Whether my bro was bringing me to high school parties while he was supposed to be watching me or showing me all the local bars in South Beach Miami when I wasn't even old enough to vote( let alone legally drink a beer) we always had a good time. All of this (and much more) as given us special bond that most siblings never have. Now I look forward to my trips home knowing there will be at least one late night of drinking and catching up...and one too many shots of Ryan's/Baileys.
Matron of Honor
Without Meg I would have never made it through my awkward 5th and 6th grade years living in NJ (and there are so many good pictures)....also this wedding would not be happening. We met so young and lived so far apart but still managed to keep up our friendship. My go-to girl for advice, fashion, and some straight up reality.
Officiant
Where do I start with this one. Joe and I met around the same time I learned to tie my shoes. Sometimes I think the world would be a safer place had we never met. From playing lacrosse together all through high school to working on the Doris Mae every summer and charming shoobies into giving us their money, I can say that Joe truly is my brother from another mother. Even after going months without seeing each other it's like it has only been a few hours since the last time we were raising hell.
Bridesmaid
Soon to be sisters by marriage, but always friends by choice. After countless coffee dates, walks, advice, and calling when there is an "animal" under the couch we have gotten so close since the Rebelution concert when we first got to meet you! I'm so excited to officially be part of the fam :)
Groomsman
Obviously Eric and I met when Shauna and I started dating. I think one of our first and fondest memories together was when Eric found me sleeping on the front porch down in Florida after having a few too many the night before. Wether we are going out to do a some pond hopping for bass or camping in Michigan's Upper Peninsula we are always having a good time together. He's like the little brother I never had that steals your beer.
Bridesmaid
Kathleen has been "My Buddy" since day 1. I would say that I'll never bite you again but I don't want to make any loose promises. We always have fun whether it's a family gathering or just as friends. I'm so happy we get to go through "wedding stuff" together!
Bridesmaid
Natalie and I met 21 years ago at the school bus stop in our neighborhood and became instant best friends. There are so many milestones, laughs, cries, and weird phases we went through together (definitely lots of pictures). She is the epitome of who everyone should grow up with. No matter how many months/ years we go without seeing each other nothing ever changes.
Groomsman
Mike and I have been best friends ever since we met back in fifth grade. We grew up together doing pretty much anything outdoors from riding bikes and playing lacrosse to meeting up after a day of bowhunting to drink a couple beers. Even though we now live half way across the country from each other we still manage to talk weekly if not daily.
Bridesmaid
My Mishka! We went through probably the worst experience EVER together....Gen Chem. Through drinks and tears we created a strong bond to help each other through the first two years of undergrad. I apologize for our haunted dorm room and leaving you to move to Florida (it was a hard breakup). Even when we live apart we are always just a phone call away.
Bridesmaid
I have no idea how I got so lucky on the roommate gamble, but through JU I got to meet Ashleigh. Seriously one of the most genuine, positive, and caring people anyone will ever meet. You took me under your wing and made my Florida experience the best ever. Thank goodness you have flight benefits!
Bridesmaid
Becca and I met in hygiene school and have not looked back since. If I need a beer, need to vent, or go shopping she is always down for pretty much anything and gets along with pretty much anybody. We bond over our love for dogs and Target ( who doesn't love those). We have had a fun 2 years!
