Maid of Honor
If you met Grace and I separately you'd never think that these two women could be friends. Grace grew up on a farm in Upstate NY, she went to college for agriculture, and we crossed paths when we both ended up at Rohrer Seeds. When I first met Grace I thought she was either very shy, or very conservative; but after many awkward smiles and waves, we finally started talking and I realized that I had it all wrong. Grace is one of those people that you can talk to about anything, her mind will run wild with you. Much of our time together is spent yelling about things that make us angry, asking the big questions about life, and talking about regenerative agriculture. We teach each other, and that's the best kind of friend I could ask for. <3

Emma and I met when she was born, she was my first little sister and I loved her so much. Over the years she has watched me navigate the roller coaster of life, and now she is one of my best friends. We can talk about anything, and inspire each other creatively. Many people don't become friends with their sisters, and I am so thankful that though we have walked each other through some dark times, we came out the other side, as better people, and as friends. Emma and I teach each other, we learn from each other's experience in life, and I am so thankful to have her standing with me on my wedding day! <3

Jules is my youngest sister, and while we have an age gap of 7 years we have discovered our similarities over the years. Jules is stubborn and creative and likes to do it all, she tries things and if she doesn't like it she moves on and tries something else. She likes to explore and while she doesn't think she's creative, I think she is creative, but she won't settle for something that doesn't float her boat. We spend a lot of time talking about the things that we want to do in life, and how we are going to get there, and how sometimes it feels like we are never going to find that [thing] that really gets us going. I'm thankful for her perspective and getting to see her become the person that she wants to be. <3

Alanna and I met in college, but it wasn't until after college that we developed the friendship that we have today. We have been alongside each other for some of the darkest times of our lives, and some of the most joyful times. Alanna brings out the fun in me, the creative, inspired human that I want to be. She keeps me on track and pushes me to dream big and actually do those big things I dream about, she makes me believe I can do it. Alanna is one of those people that when you become friends with her, she will be your personal cheerleader. She makes everyone feel seen and loved and appreciated, and she has taught me to just give the compliment, because you never know how much it will mean to someone. <3
Bridesmaid
Becca and I were both homeschooled, and she was in a co-op with friends of mine, but I don't think we ever even had a conversation until we connected after college. Somehow we decided to go to the Philadelphia Museum of Art together one day, I was taking pictures of Becca, and we went outside and got water ice from an ice cream truck. This was the beginning of our friendship, which is just wild to think about because it feels like we have always been friends. It's one of those friendships where we don't get to see each other often, but when we do we pick up right where we left off. So much has changed over the last few years for both of us, grief and heartbreak, change and healing, and I am so thankful for the constant of our friendship no matter how long it has been. <3
Bridesmaid
Heather and I also became friends through our homeschool co-op friends. We met in youth group and we both felt as though we had crossed paths before, but weren't sure how. We came to discover that we went to the same church as kids, and had probably seen each other around, but never made the connection. We have gone through seasons of hardly speaking, and seasons of talking regularly, but Heather's care has always been constant. Our conversations are usually full of emotion and soul, sometimes we just complain about our mutual chronic pain because we both understand it. Heather's friendship is literally just a big warm hug, she brings light with her wherever she goes. Her heart for people is so big, and she is one of the best friends you will ever have. <3

I met Maddie (Thomas's Sister) last year while she was in the midst of fostering a little man, AND growing a baby of her own. Now baby Cade is earth side, and we are starting to get to know each other better as women, and friends. It has been so fun to feel like I am gaining the older sister I never had. Maddie is a person that can "do both" -- She loves to have fun, whether its an overly competitive game of beach paddle ball, or going to plant stores and coffee shops, but she's also a person that you can have a heart to heart with. She has a huge heart for people, and she's not afraid to talk about the hard stuff, and I can't wait to get to know her better as we become sisters! <3
