I met Justin around the year 2005. From the beginning, I was looking up to him like the older brother I never had. I admired his intelligence and the way his thought process worked. I often felt as though we communicated cryptically, and continue to do so:) We shared many common interests but none more dominant than our fine taste in quality music. Music was always such a huge part of my life, and remains one to this day. Not only do we continue to share in our friendship, we've been making our own music together since the year 2008! ;)

Jenny and I have known each other since we were sunbeams. Although we weren't always each other's biggest fan in the beginning, we became family in Jr. High. This lady completes me, and understands me better than anyone I have ever met [well, besides David of course ;]. She is one the most non-judgmental, outgoing, and creative girls I know. Jenny has this magic power of turning my tears of sorrow into tears of laughter. She has seen me at my ugliest and yet manages to convince me I am beautiful. She's my PIC! I admire that this little lady sets such a high standard for herself, yet she'll be the one right next to me when we end up in a jail cell... I hold my Jenny so dear, and look up to her more than she will ever understand.

I met Dave back in Junior High School! He was one of the first true friends I made after transferring schools, and remains one of my best buds to this day. In our heyday we quite literally did it all! From hijacking an already "poorly" purchased mini-van in order to dominate the Brighton Bump, to playing in a high-school band. Together, we've shared in some of the most memorable moments, most fit for a movie! One of which includes the first time I picked up a microphone. If it wasn't for "Malmy," I would have never dared to pursue my passion for music, and I most certainly wouldn't have made any friends. lol:)

Cassiopeia C. Clarke has been my best friend since before we were born. Our mothers were best friends so we're basically sisters from different misters! We have grown up together--even when we have been miles apart. Although we don't talk as much as either one of us would like, when we do, it's like no time has passed. We just click!!I admire this beautiful soul so much. She has shown me that no matter what, you can work hard and get what you want. She is gorgeous, and I have always admired her confidence, as well as her ability to make friends with everyone. Cassi has shown me such strength in life, and I am so honored to call her one of my best friends.

I met Lauren when she started working with me at IMC about seven years ago. She has been there for me since I was kissing frogs, and was there when I found my Prince. She has set such a great example for me throughout the years, and has been my nursing school buddy for the last two of them. This lady is the life of any party, and will be the one to get you to push your limits.I admire her straight up honesty and her willingness to help me in any situation life brings. Lauren is always there at 3 am when I need to talk, and knows what coffee to bring me when 6 am hits. Plus, she is kinda cool too;) I am so flattered she is one of my best friends, and is willing to be one of my bridesmaids!

I may have met Geoff around the year 2005 but I wish I would have met him much sooner! His passion for life is both admirable and contagious! I wish I had as much enthusiasm for anything as much as he does for the world around him! Often times I will watch his snapchat or facebook feeds and find myself wondering what the heck I'm doing with my day! I'll never forget the time he picked me up from school in his Dodge Viper, "Chloe." I looked around at all my classmates at the time and was like, "Yea, this IS happening!"

Holy crap, I can't believe I have known Carm over six years!!! We met through mutual friends back in 2010, and have shared the most unforgettable times ever. She always dresses to impress and brings the excitement to anything-- wherever we may be. She is the first one to stick up for herself and her friends, which I freaking love about her. She has been there for me throughout thick and thin, and always manages to lift me up, no matter what.Her strong spirit and courage throughout the years has been an inspiration for me. I look up to her confidence and the fact that she can be a bitch when needed and completely rule it. [shhh, I secretly want to steal her closet full of clothes too.] I love her guts out.

This lady is one of the sweetest souls I have ever met. She is seriously so nice, so pretty, and so down for anything, at any time! Tara has the biggest heart, and is so chill with anyone and everyone. Her sincere kindness is something to be admired, not-to-mention she is one amazing and hot mama to top it off.Tara and I have been friends since 2012 and although our lives have kept us both pretty busy, I still consider her one of my besties. She is one of the most genuine people I have ever met, and I would trust her with anything. We have had some crazy adventures and I cherish every last one of them especially that one time in Vega$ ;). I'm so happy she is willing to be by my side on my biggest adventure yet.

I met Brian in 2005! At the time he was shredding guitar in Milicent with (Justin and Geoff) and now rules the drum throne in our band, A.L.G. Not only is he multi talented, Brian is one of the most sincere friends a person could have. I always enjoy explaining to him about the most recent band or piece of music I've listened to. Brian will sit there patiently and 9/10 times respond with, "oh ya, I've heard those guys/that song. I have a few of their albums." One of these days I'll impress him with something!

Eric is one of the greatest guys I've had the pleasure of meeting in this life. We met back in 2005 in the same setting I met most of the other groomsmen. Eric has always been a "go-to" and loyal friend, with a willingness to do anything for the ones he loves! I'm a firm a believer that Eric just might be the inventor of the timeless tradition of "work hard, play hard" because I've never known him to work less than two jobs yet always find the time to support his friends and out-party us all.

I cannot believe I dated David for over a year before I got to meet this gem! Samantha was in Norway serving an LDS mission when we started dating, and I only got to meet her on Skype at first. We even have mutual buddies!!As far as "Sister-in-Laws" go, I think I win the prize! This lady is as darling and talented as they come! She has so much energy, and is always laughing. I just adore the crap out of her. I'm so delighted she is willing to be a bridesmaid, and I am freaking thrilled for such a rad sis. I can't wait to get to know her better and have some crazy adventures of our own.

What to say about the young man who says so little? :) From the time I met Jessi's little brother I truly knew there was much to know of him. You don't need to look very hard to notice one of Noah's many incredible talents. From snowboarding all the way to calligraphy, and everything in between, he's a legit stud! My teammate for sure and forever;)

Thank you to both our family and friends that have supported us since day one! We love you guys!
