Bridesmaids

Ashley is my best friend and person who has cheered on Chris' and I's relationship the most. I met Ashley freshman year of College when we both joined the Zeta Zeta Zeta sorority. During our senior year, we lived together and survived student teaching with each others support. After graduating, Ashley and I got an apartment in Charlotte and made so many memories during those two years. Last July, I had the honor to be a bridesmaid in Ashley's wedding. Thankfully, after she was married, she only moved a street over. I am so blessed to have a best friend that lives 5 minutes away and that I know I can look forward to seeing  every Tuesday night to watch the Bachelor.

Jenna is one of my closest friends who I know can always put a smile on my face. I met Jenna my Freshman year of college and had the best time rooming with her during our Sophomore year. Jenna is one of the funniest people I know and always knows how to make any day fun. Jenna also played a huge role in Chris' and I's engagement. She talked with Chris on the phone many times to help him pick out the ring. For the engagement, Chris flew Jenna to Charlotte to surprise me and take pictures of the special moment. I am so grateful that Jenna was there to celebrate with us!

I am so blessed to have Caitlyn as my amazing sister-in-law! I first met Caitlyn in  2015 when she first started dating my brother, Josh. Throughout the years, we have made so many great memories together on family vacations and holidays. One of my favorite days ever was being a bridesmaid in her and Josh's wedding. I was so honored to be a part of their wedding and I am so excited for her to be a part of mine and Chris'!

Amanda is not only my future sister-in-law, but has also become a friend. From the moment we met, she welcomed me into the family with open arms and made me feel right at home! One of my favorite memories with Amanda was when Chris and I went to visit her and her husband David in Austin, TX. We had the best time eating Texas BBQ, trying out breweries, and playing with their cute dog, Kirby. I am so excited to become family and share many memories together for years to come!

When Chris and I first started dating, he told me that he wanted me to meet his roommates and their girlfriends. I was so nervous before that first dinner with all of them. Chloe was dating Cody (Chris' best man) at the time, and now they are engaged! From the moment I met Chloe, I knew we were going to become good friends. Ever since that first dinner, Chloe has become one of my closest friends in Charlotte. Chris and I love going on double dates with her and Cody to try new food or have a cozy night in. I am so grateful for Chloe and her friendship with both me and Chris!

Stephanie met Chris at Forest Hill Church in 2021. They became close friends because of their close knit friend group at church. When I started dating Chris, he introduced me to Stephanie and her soon to be husband Alex (one of Chris' groomsmen). Stephanie has quickly become one of my closest friends in Charlotte and friend to go on double dates with. One of my favorite memories with Stephanie was over memorial day when Steph, Alex, Chris, and I took Stephanie's dog to the dog park at the White Water Center. There, we spent the day walking around the lake and talking about both of our weddings and what we are both looking forward about the future. I am so happy to have gone through the season of engagement with Stephanie and I am so excited for the double dates to come as two married couples!
