I met Courtney in Kindergarten and we've been friends ever since. From sleepovers and trips to California, to living together in college, I knew she was going to be a lifelong friend. Courtney and I have shared countless memories that I will cherish forever. Especially visiting her at her new home in England this past summer. She was the first person to celebrate our engagement with us! Courtney is one of the most caring, adventurous, and funny people I know. Whether it’s adding a person and artist touch to something or offering words of encouragement when I need them most, she’s always there with a smile (and with her dog Ruby for doggie snuggles) . Choosing Courtney as my maid of honor was such an easy choice— she’s been there for me for ever major life event and I can’t imagine this day without her by my side.

Haley and I have been friends since we were freshmen in high school, and from the very first day, I knew we’d be in each other’s lives forever. She’s the kind of friend who’s always there and ready to comfort me by sending me memes from The Office. Her kindness, humor, and loyalty are just a few of the reasons I’m so lucky to have her by my side. Haley and I are both speech pathologists and spent hundreds, if not thousand of hours studying at our kitchen table together. Haley brings out the edgy side of me and always has the best taste in music. Having her as a bridesmaid means the world to me!

I met Anna at work! I was sitting in our work room talking to someone else about how I was looking to move and she said that I should move in with her. At that point, Anna and I had only talked maybe once or twice at work but I thought why not and it was one of the best decisions I've ever made. From long hallway chats, to carpooling to work together, and now being neighbors. Her warmth, intelligence, and sense of humor have made her a truly wonderful friend. Anna has been a constant source of support and laughter, and I’m so grateful to have her by my side on this big day.

I’m so lucky to have gained Kristen as a sister-in-law! Even though we just recently became family, it feels like we've known each other forever. Her sweet nature, kindness, and easygoing personality not only make her an amazing person but an even better sister. Having Kristen by my side as a bridesmaid means so much to me — she’s been an incredible support, and I’m so happy to call her family.

Zach, my younger brother and best man, has been by my side through so many of life's moments, both big and small. Growing up, we spent endless hours playing mini sticks and home run derbies in the backyard—games that often ended in heated arguments or fights, but that never stopped us from jumping back into the action an hour later. His infectious sense of humor has always kept things light, even in the most intense moments, and he's always been incredibly supportive. What I admire most about Zach is his motivation and drive; he tackles everything with a determination that inspires me. Having him as my best man feels like a full-circle moment, as I’ve watched him grow into someone I truly look up to.

Jacob has been one of the most supportive friends I could ever ask for. We first crossed paths in grade 9 drafting class, where we bonded over our shared interest in design and engineering. Over the years, our friendship grew even stronger, and we ended up living together for four years while completing engineering school. During that time, Jacob was not only a great roommate but also a constant source of encouragement and motivation. His unwavering support has meant the world to me, and I feel incredibly lucky to have him by my side as a groomsman on this special day.

Brayden and I go way back—our friendship started when we were just 5 years old, and since then, we've shared countless memories on and off the field. From playing hockey, volleyball, and baseball together to enduring countless practices and road trips, Brayden has always been by my side. We also made it through engineering school together, supporting each other through late nights of studying and the pressure of exams. I’m so grateful for the bond we’ve built over the years, and having him as a groomsman feels like the perfect way to celebrate our lifelong friendship.

Max, my future brother-in-law and groomsman, has been an incredible source of support and inspiration. From the moment we met, his adventurous spirit and passion for travel have always stood out. I admire the way he embraces new experiences, whether it's exploring new cultures or taking on exciting challenges. I’m grateful to have him by my side on this special day, and I look forward to continuing to share many more adventures with him in the future.

If you know us, you know how much Winston means to us. He is the center of our world and throughout the wedding there will be plenty of Winston touches to honor him since he is not able to make the wedding. He enjoys sharing food with his parents (especially when they make chicken or steak), going to the park, barking at the them and getting spoiled by all of his grandparents.
