For those of you that may not know, Ian is my brother. When it came to choosing a best man I knew there could be no other. I met Ian on Christmas Day way back in 1988. My parent's brought him home from the hospital and I got a new baby brother. I also got a toy kitchen that year. While the kitchen was quite a magnificent gift, Ian has always been the best Christmas gift that keeps on giving. Speaking of giving I hope you all are as excited about his speech as I am!

Andrea and I met while working at the Institute of Living in Hartford. She's taught me a lot, from how to make the most of a pub crawl to how to network at professional conferences! In addition to being a maid of honor, she's also the amazing mother of twins Louis & Luca, the ring bearers!

I met Andres way back in 2nd grade. I always liked going to his house because his parents kept the house stocked with the best snacks! He has always been a good friend of mine but over the last couple of years I feel like we've become closer than ever before!

Maura and I met because she was assigned to be my peer mentor in the doctoral program at Post. Little did the students matching us know, but we were a match made in heaven! We hit it off and became close friends over the last three years.

Jacqueline is my cousin (mom's side) and is like a sister to me! From being Bitty Baby moms and pool Mermaids together to sharing our famous handshake, she has always been a ray of light in my life.

I first met Chris at a Starbucks, EW! He was apparently scared of my mustache I had at the time. We later became friends and I found out he was born exactly 11 days before me! He helped me choose a limo for the big proposal and even drove to the train station, picked up my car and had it waiting for me at my home so that us newly engaged folk could sleep in without getting a parking ticket!

Peter is Danielle's oldest brother. When I first met Peter we went to Barcade ( it's a bar AND and arcade!) I knew I left an impression on him when I got the high score on the Arkanoid machine. Peter also helped us pick out the wedding suits!

Kate is one of my oldest friends. We met during band in high school and despite time and distance, she has been a constant in my life ever since!

Jon is Danielle's youngest brother. Danielle always tells us we are wired exactly the same way. We aren't sure if she means that in a good or bad way but we are ok with it!

Shannon is in my cohort at Post. We enjoy our coffee and park dates and have helped each other survive grad school!
