Jacob's brother, they've had their differences but have always been there for each other. Especially now, giving a place for Jacob to live no questions asked.

One of Jacob's best friends, they have known each other since kindergarten, and have been roommates since 2018.

Jacob and Ben met in middle school and became fast friends, and they have been playing nerd games ever since.

Jacob and David have known each other since first grade and living down the road from each other meant they hung out a lot. Now despite the busyness of adult life they still get together for DnD at least once a month.

Jacob and Alex have known each other since elementary school although they went to different schools. After high school they ended up playing many nerd games together like Warhammer and Warmachine. Alex was also Jake's first roommate when Jake first moved out over 10 years ago.

Lucas's best friend, growing up Jacob and Pete only spent time together if Luke had Pete over. As times change and people get older who's friend is who's gets blurred and now they all play Magic together on Fridays.

Gabrielle's husband, Maria's brother-in-law. Josh was a massive influence in Jacob's conversion to Catholicism. Now Jacob is the Godfather of Josh's first born.

The bride's radiant older sister, certified architect and new mama to Maria's precious nephew and Godson, Nathanael. Their sisterhood grows sweeter each year, cultivated through a weekly women's group to grow in their faith, fun board game nights, adventurous camping trips and puzzling local trivia. This bridal season has certainly allowed Gabrielle's thoughtfulness, selflessness and organizational skills to shine in a big way!

The bride's amazing younger sister, stylish trendsetter and world traveler. Maria got to spend an extra special 25th birthday staying with Olivia while she was living in Hawaii. Olivia's love for family burns strong and her returns home are always highly anticipated. The sisters love having sleepovers, chatting about life, making new recipes and binge watching shows together. This MoH has brought nothing but the royal treatment, a supportive demeanor and good vibes all wedding season long!

A random college roommate survey pairing 10 years ago blossomed into an unbreakable lifelong friendship. Taylor and Maria roomed together all 4 years at Lesley University and worked many shifts together at J.P Licks in Harvard Square. The two continue to enjoy their shenanigans, New Girl fandom, day trips, all things Disney, and the newest addition to Taylor's life, sweet baby Miles. The engagement season has brought forth Taylor's joy in celebrating others, her open and welcoming heart, and explosive love for a good time!

Finding friendship at Lesley University freshman year, the bride treasured staying up all night in the common area of Doble with Ileana and being serenaded by her mesmerizing vocal performances in the campus' 'Harmageddon' accapella group. Ileana and Maria continue to cherish get togethers where they share their love of crafting, board gaming, indulging in a bottle of rosé, beach trips and picnics. Ileana's free spirit along with her gifts of compassion, tranquility and creativity have been paramount in the bride's readiness this wedding season!

A fellow Lesley graduate and White Hall resident, known to the bride as 'Reedy'. They met at a gamenight hosted in Maria and Taylor's dormroom freshman year. Reedy continually showed her care for others by chefing it up for all in the dorms, especially around each holiday. Although her recent move to Pittsburgh for work makes visits rare, her love and support know no bounds. Maria was even able to spend time last year preparing Reedy for her own wedding where the two got to relish cracking up together (feat. Reedy's contagious giggles), an escape room, good cuisine and DIY crafting!

The life of the party! Also having attended Lesley University with the bride, Emily and Maria were introduced by Taylor and quickly became kindred meme queens. Emily showcases her warm hospitality, abundant generosity and endless energy by hosting frequent gatherings for the whole college friend group, entertaining all with her fun-loving personality and slaying in her teaching position. The two have also been sharing a season of engagement, helping each other with ideas, DIY crafts and an array of support.

One of the bride's longest friendships. The pair first crossed paths junior year of high school in Mr. Drummey's history class. Their shared fondness for the art room, evenings at the pool hall and speaking in silly accents quickly drew the two together. They've since expanded their mutual interests to Spanish language, the EMS field, trying new recipes, and yoga. Jess has been there for so many of Maria's firsts, and her generous heart continues to provide steadfast dedication, encouragement and helping hands throughout the bride's engagement. Plus, she is always down for a silly goose time!
