Carrie Krouse
Maid of Honor
Samantha met Carrie when she worked for security at the Cleveland Public Library. They became quick buddies once they got to know each other. Never tell one of us something you don't want the other to know cause we tell each other everything. Even after I left the library Sam and Carrie continued to be best friends. She's one of the only people I know who will always answer her phone and call me just to talk no matter how long its been.
Rob VanZandt
Best Man
Rob and Mike have been friends since they both attended Olmsted Falls High School. Rob and Mike played football together and were commute buddies when then had to travel to Polaris to attend the Criminal Justice Program while in high school. Through thick and thin then have been good friends no matter how much time had past between the last time they hung out. Mike was a member of Rob's wedding party and now it's his turn to return the favor.
Lauren D'amicone
Matron of Honor
Samantha met Lauren in grade school. Through the years we have remained great friends no matter how much time goes by we'll hang out and it'll be like we just saw each other. We have had some hilarious times together that I shouldn't write for everyone to see haha. Samantha was in Lauren's beautiful wedding and asked Lauren to return the favor. Shes a blast to hang out with when we get a chance which isn't too much cause adulting sucks.
Jimmy Terwilliger
Groomsman
Jimmy and Mike both work at Medina PD and have been friends since early on in both of their careers. With an unorthodox sense of humor and similar mindset, they have remained friends through years of work at the PD. Jimmy and Mike are known for their 'encouraging behavior' when around others and always have a good time stirring the pot.
