Jesus and I have known each other going on 8 years now. We met while working at the same cafe, and have been friends ever since. We both have a similar sense of humor, and we goof around a lot.

Jesus is easily one of the most genuine people I have ever met. He is my brother and there is no one else I would rather have by my side when I get married.

Chrissy Senechal is my older sister, and my Maid of Honor. I did not choose Chrissy to be Maid of Honor just because she is my sister, I chose her because she is one of my best friends. Chrissy has had a huge role in my life, and I can’t imagine getting married without her standing by my side. Chrissy has joined Jared and I on many of our trips out to national parks, and loves to act as our day planner and tour guide, which meshes great with our go-with-the-flow travel style. Plus, as the annoying younger sister, I love to see how Jared fits in with her, acting like an annoying younger brother who tries to bother her about as much as I do. (Though he could never!)

Adam Brudz-Rodríguez was just this guy I was aware of in high school. Then on senior prom night, we rode in the same limo, and I swear I have never clicked with anyone like I have with Adam. We ended up going to college together, and made sure to take as many classes as we could with each other. No class was ever boring having Adam in it. There were several classes I remember crying in because Adam made me laugh so hard. Whenever life gets tough, Adam is always there for me, and can always make me feel better with his outstanding sense of humor. I never get tired of talking to and hanging out with him. Adam is truly one of the best people I have ever met, and I can’t wait for him to be a part of my wedding party.

As far back as I can remember, Anna McGinley has always been a part of my life. She may not be related by blood, but Anna is without a doubt my younger sister. With how much time we spent together growing up, she is far more than just a family friend. Whenever someone asks if I have any siblings, I always say I have two, Chrissy and Anna. This wedding would not feel right if Anna was not involved, and Anna has been so kind to make us beautiful crocheted centerpieces for our tables. Seriously, they look professional, it’s amazing. Anna has always been a constant in my life, and I am so excited to have her involved in this exciting new adventure with me and Jared.
