*Who have you known the longest? I've known Becca since 2018! (6 years omg) *What was your first impression of the other person? I'd heard so many stories of Zach, and when I first met him, he exceded my expectations! He is such a gentleman and is the perfect guy for my bestie. Zach is helpful and kind and so much fun! *What is your favorite memory with Rebecca, Zachary, or both? My favorite memory with Becca was taking her to her first Bear's Homecoming Game, where she didn't have to play in the band! (Even though I loved watching her marching!!!) My favorite memory with Zach was when we designed Becca's engagement ring. Everything he picked was so personalized, and he kept saying that it had to be PERFECT because Becca is PERFECT! My favorite memory with both of them was this past St. Patrick's day. I love spending time with my bestie and her man. :) *Do you have any advice for the soon-to-be newlyweds? Always kiss hello, goodbye, good morning, and goodnight! And say I love you!

Live, laugh, and commit tax evasion together. *What's your favorite song and why? Pride and Joy by Stevie Ray Vaughn. It's apart of the first album I remember listening to.

Watching Zach make a mixed drink out of Bailey's, Baja Blast, and lime juice only for it to curdle throughout the night. *Do you have any advice for the soon-to-be newlyweds? Communication is key!

*Who have you known the longest? I have known Becca the longest! We met at MSU 4 years ago in Women’s Chorus. We then realized we had a class together, and she invited me to sit next to her. We later sang together in MSU Chorale, and were roommates while we traveled the world with the choir! *What was your first impression of the other person? I had heard all about Zach while getting to know Becca and we sort of met while Becca was on the phone with him when we were in Spain! Once we met in person I knew he was the person for Becca, and admired his kind, goofy personality and admired his love for mah bestie! *What is your favorite memory with Rebecca, Zachary, or both? My favorite memory with Becca is not one specific moment, but all the moments we shared while singing and traveling together! I love looking back on those nights we stayed up late giggling, the memories of us exploring the world, and our choir singing in the most beautiful places! I treasure all those moments with her. *Do you have any advice for the soon-to-be newlyweds? I have never been married, but I think it’s important for any couple to never stop dating each other! Never stop flirting, never stop giving each other just because gifts, never stop dancing, never stop writing love letters, and never stop telling each other “I love you”! *What’s your favorite song and why? My favorite song right now is So High School by Taylor Swift! This song makes me smile and feel so giddy!

*Who have you known the longest? I first met Zach in 2017 in our freshman English class and later got to know him and became his friend in 2018 which is also when I first met Becca when she came to visit Zach in Rolla during college. *What was your impression of the other person? My first impression of Becca was being intimidated by how beautiful she was!! I quickly realized there was nothing to be intimidated by, she was easy to talk to and quick to include me in the group ❤️ *What is your favorite memory with Rebecca, Zachary, or both? My favorite memory of Becca is doing our makeup together for the Halloween Party at Swift Hosue, she has an amazing talent for makeup (among many other talents) and I loved getting to spend quality time with just her. As for Zach, nothing beats our “Redbull Vodka Night” during which I felt we really solidified our friendship and also inspired every birthday gift for the last several years 💀 *Do you have any advice for the soon-to-be newlyweds? I have never been married, so take what resonates 😂 Disagreements are inevitable, hurt feelings are unavoidable, but when things get difficult, if you can remember that your spouse is ultimately on your team and not working against you, you can resolve any issue with love and respect. *What’s your favorite song and why? Dance, Dance by Fall Out Boy. It’s the first song I remember my mom introducing me to and thinking “now THIS is music” 💀 the album still holds a nostalgic spot in my heart.

*Who have you known the longest? I’ve known Zach longer (not by much though). *What was your first impression of the other person? My first impression of Zach was that he was a funny and nerdy guy. Our first interaction was through our shared wall between our college dorm rooms when we heard someone shout "hump day" and we shouted back. *What is your favorite memory with Rebecca, Zachary, or both? My favorite memory of Zach and Becca is spending almost every Monday night with them playing DnD as they play their characters! *Do you have any advice for the soon-to-be newlyweds? Marriage is the same thing you've been doing for the past 8 years, just under a different name. Don't let the new name scare you and continue to love each other the same way you have all this time. Enjoy every day together. Go on dates and adventures. Talk and share and continue to keep your relationship strong as you take these new, but familiar steps in your lives together. *What’s your favorite song and why? My favorite song currently is Feed the Machine by Poor Man's Poison. I love their rock and folk sound and the story told.

She is like the big sister I never had and we always have the best time together!

I had just had a baby a couple months prior and it was their way of getting me out of the house and spending time with me before I moved back to England! *Do you have any advice for the soon-to-be newlyweds? Never stop challenging each other in the best ways! Always find new and exciting adventures to explore together! *What's your favorite song and why?
