Kristen and Katie have known each other since they were 2 years old and became friends quickly. They went to the same schools from K-12, and both graduated from The University of Florida. After 23 years, they consider each other to be family.

Kristen Toomey

Katie and Corie first met their first semester of college at The University of Florida. They bonded through their love of dance, dedication to school, and detest for bugs. Although they are "long distance besties" now due to grad school, they are as close as ever.

Corie Evans

Megan and Katie first met at Haile Middle School during class, but really bonded in high school over a love for marching band and loathe of chemistry. Megan and Katie became roommates sophomore year at UF, and poorly battled the roaches and navigated Gainesville together for 3 years.

Megan Labrecque

Mel and Katie met during their graduate physical therapy program and became lab partners and fast friends during late nights studying for exams.  They tackled many nerve-wracking practical exams together, explored downtown St. Augustine, and shared lots of laughter and tears through their 3-year program.

Melissa Vanderlinde

Lindsey and Katie met before grad school when she was nice enough to  bring Katie's numerous Amazon packages in while Katie was out of town visiting JJ. They bonded over their love for couch naps with Remy the dog, chasing stray cats for pets, and trying new and fun types of wine. Lindsey is also responsible for introducing Katie to the wonderful world of iced lattes!

What to Wear

Most importantly... feel like a million bucks and be comfortable to dance the night away! If you need ideas for "formal" attire, check out the page below.

For Women:Formal wedding guest dresses include both evening gowns and elegant cocktail frocks, so pick the hemline you feel best in. That being said, you don't have to wear a dress at all. "A jumpsuit is the perfect alternative to a dress and will provide ultimate comfort for a busy day of wedding festivities," says Rivera. We're also big fans of suits and other dressy separates. Check out our favorite styles, below.

For Men:Formal weddings are great because the dress code is fancy (it's fun to get dressed up!) but also flexible. Men can wear a tuxedo, but they don't have to—a dark suit and tie are also appropriate. Dress shoes fit the bill when it comes to footwear. Consider patent leather loafers for a tux or laced oxfords for a suit. A formal wedding is also the perfect time to break out cufflinks. "Pair them with a french cuff (a shirt with a double cuff), and make sure your sleeve extends slightly past the length of your jacket so the cufflinks are visible," says Rivera.
