Maid of Honor
Paula has been one of Krista's best friends for over 20 years. They met while working as bartenders/tiki tub girls at The Big Kahuna in Wilmington in 1995. They are often mistaken for sisters, as they do look more like sisters than Paula's real life sisters. These besties have been enjoying beach days, concerts, and everything in between for almost 25 years!
Matron of Honor
Melissa and Krista met their freshman year at University of Delaware when they both pledged the Gamma Sigma Sigma sorority. They started talking during pledge night and haven't shut up since! Besties thru the good and the bad....we are there for each other no matter the time or location...we've even thrown "Friendiversary" parties
Bridesmaid
Dawn and Krista met on the beach at PotNets when their kids were little...only to find out that they lived close to each other back home in the Newark area. They've enjoyed beach days, boat days, bike weeks, concerts, and girls weekends for years. They've even managed to get kicked out of a hotel in AC for taking the furniture out onto the roof for a little rooftop beach party!
Bridesmaid
Krista had been coming down to PotNets since she was 3 years old...then made the big leap and moved to the beach-house full time in the summer of 2015. That same year Jen and her husband Dave bought a beach house in PotNets. They met at a beach party and became fast friends. A short time later, Jen and Dave made the leap and moved their lives and business to the beach. Krista and Jen can often be found on the beach relaxing, out at Paradise Grill or Pub dancing, or going out to dinner with the "framily"
Best Man
Donny and Jimmy met over 25 years ago while they were in high school. Despite time and distance, they remain best of friends, talk and text regularly, and attend each others parties and special events. They are more than just friends they are like brothers
Groomsman
Jimmy and Dan grew up together - Dan's parents and Jimmy's parents were best friends and they went on many family vacations together and spent holidays together. Both sets of parents moved from the Delco area of PA to Long Neck, DE around the same time....and later Jimmy and Dan moved down too. Dan's entire family is like family to us. Dan's youngest son, Christian, will be our ring-bearer and his wife Val will be responsible for making our delicious wedding cake/cupcake tree.
Groomsman
Jason was one of the first people that Jimmy met when he moved to the beach in 2002, after his dad passed away. Jason and Jimmy spent many nights (and Sunday Fundays) hanging out at Grottos, the Crab barn, the Riverside, drive on beaches, concerts, and vacations. They also share a love of Philly sports, and can routinely be found all decked out in their jerseys, cheering on their teams.
Groomsman
Jimmy met Dave thru Krista....and her friendship with Dave's wife Jen. They might have met thru the women, but they have very similar personalities and became fast friends. They have helped each other with home projects, enjoyed concerts together, dealt with their crazy women (lol), and have gone on some crazy boat rides. Maybe sometime Dave will tell you about the boat trip where Jimmy lost his drawers (very funny story)
Mother of the Bride
Growing up, Krista was always "daddy's girl" and mom and I butted heads ALOT. But when daddy passed away when I was only 15 - all mom and I had were each other. We bonded together and helped support each other thru it....and in doing so we formed a remarkable friendship! I can honestly say that my mom is one of my best friends and that she will always have my back and be there for me no matter what. We enjoy beach days, line dance trips, and wine tasting adventures together. We even got to cross something off of our bucket list 2 1/2 years ago when the two of us (and her best friend Dee) took a trip to Ireland and drove all the way around it staying in a different castle or manor each night. We still butt heads sometimes, but I don't know where I'd be without this remarkable woman
Honor Attendant
Travis has been a friend to both Krista and Jimmy individually since before we met and started dating. Travis is more than just a friend, he is "framily" (friend who is like family). We have spent many holidays and weekends celebrating every occasion and making wonderful memories. We have asked Travis to have the honor of escorting the Mother of The Bride (Janice) down the aisle.
Officiant
We met Steven when he began dating our good friend Travis. Over the past year and a half, steven and travis have become more than just friends - we call them "framily" as we spend a lot of holidays, weekends, and special events with them. Steven is one of the most outgoing and friendliest people that we have ever met...he spreads smiles and cheer everywhere he goes. We are so honored that he has accepted the responsibility of getting ordained to officiate our marriage....and we know that he will make it an unforgettable ceremony!
Sons of the Bride
Krista loves her sons Chris (29) and David (19) more than life itself. There is nothing quite like a mother's love for her sons. Krista lost her father 30 years ago, so he is not here to walk her down the aisle. Chris and David will escort their mother down the aisle (beach) to give her away to Jimmy
