Kelly and I first met in our middle school/high school days many, many years ago at a dog show of all places! For those who are not quite familiar with that crowd, there are not too many people under the age of 40 so seeing someone close to my age was a long shot! Dogs were the initial topic Kelly and I bonded over (she got Sera soon after); I am so grateful for Sera and Riley (my dog at the time) because that was the catalyst of our friendship. Our friendship grew to dressing up for fun dinners out, celebrating college graduations, and even sharing an apartment together. Kelly has always been a great friend that is up for a fun night out or a spa night at home sipping wine. I am incredibly grateful for Kelly’s friendship and can't wait to stand by her side as she marries Josh. Just like she stood beside me when I married her cousin John. So now we are family, as well as friends.

My name is Gabby Iademarco, and I’m so excited to be Kelly’s Maid of Honor on her special day! I met Kelly the summer of 2018, at a remote little Dude Ranch in Buena Vista, Colorado. By either a stroke of luck, pure coincidence, or a greater plan, Kelly and I shared Thursdays off together. We quickly grew a strong, lifelong friendship that has endured distance and life obstacles. I’m so grateful to call someone like Kelly a lifelong friend! She cheers me on, comforts me, and supports me through life experiences. I cannot wait to be one of her biggest cheerleaders as she ties the knot with Josh! Some fun facts about me, I’m a Cleveland, OH native, where I’ve lived for the majority of my life. I’ve also lived in Charlotte, NC and Buena Vista, CO for brief stints of time. Some of my favorite past times include running/walking, binging documentaries, sewing, and playing board games with family and friends! I’ve heard Kelly is the champion of parcheesi; however, she hasn’t played against me yet!

After meeting in high school and bonding over the fact that I had the same name as her dog (lol) Kelly easily became one of my best friends in the world. Kelly’s house became like a second home to me in high school, her parents always inviting me to stay for dinner or to join the family for a game of Catan, and Kelly became like a big sister to me. She’s always been a shoulder for me to cry on and is always down to drink wine and watch musicals with me. After almost 10 years of friendship I am so grateful and couldn’t be happier to be by Kelly’s side on her and Josh’s special day.

It means so much to me to be a bridesmaid because I’ve known Kelly my entire life. We've talked about this day for so long, the fact it’s finally here is amazing. It’s such an honor to be a part of the wedding magic and stand by her when she marries the love of her life.

The first time my brother Josh mentioned Kelly to me was when he first met her in New Orleans. Without a doubt, he described her as being his “perfect 10.” Months later, I finally got the opportunity to meet Kelly and I could see the instant connection and chemistry these two shared. We took a short trip up North and Kelly instantly felt like family and the missing link my brother needed in his life. From their banter, communication and devotion to one another, I look forward to the future they have ahead of them and look forward to seeing them grow both individually and as a couple for years to come.

Monster trucks!…… I love my dad and he’s cool and all but…. Monster trucks!!

I’m Peter, Kelly’s older brother. I’ve known Kelly a little over 28 years now, and it’s been a wild ride. Some say the strongest bonds are created when you face adversity with someone. She and I endured attending Pennington for eight years, flip phones, dial-up Internet, and, of course, a little brother. My wife, Megan, and I welcomed Henry into the world this past year and are blessed to have Unk (Josh) and Bells (Kelly) in his life. But the real star may be Leonidas, Henry already thinks he’s the coolest kid on the block

Hello! I'm James (Jimbo). I am Kelly's younger brother and use to be the baby of the family, but have been replaced. Kelly and I go way way back, almost as far as I can remember. I got to witness many of Kelly's phases, the good ones and the weird ones. My favorite phase of hers was her baking phase, for obvious reasons. Specifically when she discovered she could make a mean apple bread. She used to make it for me all the time because she enjoyed bringing me joy. That ship has now sailed, and I have not had that bread in years. I am pretty sure Kelly is now making Josh my apple bread. Josh and his side kick Leonidas have made the holidays a pleasure and having a five year old around has taught me a lot about monster trucks.
