"Haley and I met in college while both working at Dead End BBQ. From dog parks to Cool Beans to the gym, we were inseparable and decided to move in together (best 2.5 years ever). Haley has been my best friend since the day I met her and has gone through a lot of life's rollercoasters by my side. I am forever grateful to have her in my life."

"Cecilia and I have known each other since 1st grade. I practically lived at her house throughout high school and her parents always toted me around and joked that I was their 3rd child. Cecilia and I found each other glued together by Bon Iver, Which Wich milkshakes, karaoke in her bonus room, and binge watching How I Met Your Mother. She is more of a sister than a friend and I know she will be in my life forever because she still liked me even when I had braces."

"Rachel and I met freshman year of high school and discovered that we were the funniest people in the entire world. We could laugh for an entire hour simply because of talking in a funny voice or capturing each other doing something strange on camera. College was filled with many parties, sleepovers, and mischief. Although living in separate cities rarely allows us to see each other, we are the type of friends that pick up exactly where we left off."

"Claire is the oldest of the Thoni gals. She has always taken care of her 3 younger sisters by pouring the bowls of cereal in the mornings, bringing home cookies from her cafe job, and keeping the peace when we would all inevitably go for each other's jugular over a special fork or shirt. She taught us how to burn CDs and navigate Limewire before it crashed our home computer (sorry, mom). My favorite memories with Claire were always Christmas Eve when she would sleep in my room and we would draw, listen to music, and catch up on all of the things going on in each others lives."

"Emma shares the middle child spot of the family with me. Growing up, she was always the smart and funny sister that I wanted to follow around. She proof read my papers, yelled at me when I stole her clothes, and kept it lighthearted whenever things were tough. I wasn't scared to start high school because I knew that I had a senior on my side. We listened to My Morning Jacket everyday on the way to school and she would always put money on my lunch card when I had spent it all on sour candy. Be sure to join Emma on the dancefloor at the wedding- it will sober you up to see a sight like that!"

"Maggie is the youngest (and most fashionable)Thoni sibling. They have always been my biggest cheerleader and supported me no matter what I did. In middle school, we begged our mom to buy 2 small pulleys so that we could pass notes up and down on a string between our bunkbeds. I wish there was a pulley big enough now to send notes from Knoxville to New York, but I suppose texts will suffice. While I was not always the best older sibling, Maggie always was the best younger sibling."

"I have known Will since college and there has not been a day since that he has not made me laugh. Will's energy and humor are unparalleled. He is the best guy a gal could keep around."
