Lexi is my forever best friend and I’m so lucky to have grown up with her. She is caring, funny, and loyal. I love watching childhood movies with her and laughing at our favorite parts. She will make the most perfect Maid of Honor on my special day. 🤍

Katie makes ordinary moments fun and we can talk for hours about anything. She is the one that hears my jokes in a crowded room (or turf bay) and I can be myself around.

Aly is the most thoughtful friend. We’ve been friends since Kindergarten and have stuck together through middle school, high school, and college. We enjoy scrapbooking together and love talking everything wedding planning. You know she’s special when I take her to the Taylor Swift concert with me 💕💕
