My best friend since middle school... Leah & I share a true obsession for Red wine, late night dancing (damn near professional if you ask us), our favorite TV show “Friends” and Whole Foods. Leah actually gets full credit for introducing me to Whole Foods; I thank her from deep down every day. She's seen every relationship of mine, and witnessed my very first FaceTime call with Zak after we had Bumbled for a couple weeks. (LOL) I couldn't stop smiling. We've broken through windows together (our own Shadyside apartment, but still) and tried alcohol the first time together. Not sure where I would be without her. She's like the sister I never had.

My Go-to girl when I need to let loose and get back to my roots. Neeshy has been an incredible friend since high school. We roomed together at PSU and basically lived together in Pittsburgh as we spent every Thursday at Nakama for Girls' Night, somehow followed by awkward dive bars where we’d sing Alanis Morissette karaoke until closing time. She has such a fun energy that is contagious & uplifting. Countless memories at Seven Springs/Foggy Goggle with this nut. I love her family like it's my own...her beautiful baby boy, Zeke, is just awesome. Watch out if “Timber” by Kesha plays at our wedding.

My crazy, loud, very Italian best friend from NJ. I first met Jackie in our freshman year at Penn State, and we grew so much like sisters in those 4 years. Roommates Junior year, memories of making a half hour commute to the Smeal College of Business 3x/week, never missing a College football tailgate - always staying through the 4th quarter regardless of the glorious Happy Valley weather (we’re die-hards). Always blasting Bieber, Rihanna, and our staple “Look Ma No Hands” from the Graduate... trips to Coachella, Aruba, and visiting her in NYC are my favorite memories to this day. Now bring your ass back from London!!

The most kind and sweetest soul on earth. Megan can brighten up your worst day. I met her early freshman year at PSU through mutual friends. We shared a house Senior year, worked together at the Phyrst, and had so much fun between Daylongs, Hockey house parties, & dressing up as Four Lokos (back when they were cool & dangerous) Megs and I established a close bond even after college living close by in Pittsburgh, introducing me to her Deer Lakes crew, and our pups became pals too. She is expecting a new baby January 2021! You might accidentally think Natalie Portman is at our wedding.

I met Marissa through Megan upon moving to Pittsburgh. Spent summers at her house swimming, grilling, and going to bon fires with the deer lakes crew. Marissa, Megs and I spent countless weekends together in Southside (remember Sky Bar & Urban Tap Sunday Fundays?!) Cavo, and our fav, Cabana Bar. Maris and I are big on “Ravens week” and like to earn free tickets at McFaddens when possible. 😂 froze our asses off, but what a memory that was. I adore her and her whole family. She’s a real-life Pocahontas.

My half-marathon running bff :) Bri and I met after PSU, spending many fun weekends together around Pittsburgh. I will never forget our trip to Cleveland for a Steelers game, where we slept in my SUV under a parking garage (0 degrees outside)🤣 and exchanged Christmas gifts. We met up with Zak that weekend as he lived in Cleveland. Bri got to witness all of my nerves & butterfly emotions for Zak. Her and I spent a Sunday at William Penn Tavern later that month with Zak's Munhall crew, where she then met her future husband, Nick. Absolute fate <3

My future sister in law! :) Her & Matt’s girls, Klara and Madison, will be our flower girls. They are just as funny as their parents, and so sweet. Kait is incredibly talented at the game, Clue (completely dominates at every holiday get together). We share a love for hiking, ice cream cake & beach days 😎

My awesome sister in law, whose laugh is absolutely contagious. Her and Eric’s son and our nephew, Lucas, will be one of the ring bearers. Watch out for Lucas - he may sprint down the aisle straight to Daddy! Jess was actually my inspiration to start running races - she’s a crazy person when it comes to running. I may just hire her as my “virtual” personal trainer this spring/summer to get my butt in wedding shape. ;)

My other awesome sister in law! Her and Evan’s sweet youngsters, Landon and Brooke, will be ring bearer and flower girl. Mina is uber intelligent and has a big heart. She’s amazing at charcuterie boards... and we share a deep love for cheese and wine. Landon and Brooke are basically fluent in German and Farsi so we may ask them to welcome everyone in a different language, just for fun.
