Bridesmaids

Monica is my older (not oldest) sister. I had the honor of marrying Monica and Joseph at their beautiful wedding in March of 2023. It seems like the universe is throwing signs at us, as she is set to marry us exactly 100 days after her own anniversary. She is a bonus mom to two fiery little boys. Monica is my "twin"... 5.5 years apart in age but alike in every other sense. So much so that we communicate with looks and say the same thing at the same time WAY too frequently for it to be from anything other than a twin-connection in the brain. She is always in my corner supporting me with everything I do. She is the voice of reason in the family, which is a complete 180 from the child that would lick her plate so nobody touched it. Monica is a perfect example of the purpose of life... which is to be happy and always be working to be the best version of yourself. She has evolved through so many stages of life, and each one I find is more beautiful and magical than the last. I love growing through life with her.

Every character enters the story in one chapter or another. Dixi came into my story back when I was in high school, working as a Junior & Senior at Copeland Oaks Retirement Facility. We started as coworkers and quickly became friends. Then college for me in New Philadelphia from 2016-2018 happened and we hardly ever saw each other. We clearly were always meant to be in each others lives because we popped into each others more and more from then on out - and a BEAUTIFUL friendship was born. As our family photographer over the last almost DECADE... she has captured and been a part of so many phases of my life. Better than the pictures though... I got a friendship most only DREAM of. She has been by my side and in my corner cheering me on every opportunity that she has. She is a busy woman- a photographer, a painter, a mother, a daughter, a small business supporter, and still somehow always makes the time to talk through things any time I need. I am beyond lucky to have you in my story and I cannot wait for the rest of it.

Where to even begin... probably Mrs. Scott's class in 2nd grade. There was a little girl with long blonde pigtails who knew the answer to every question and the rest is history. A blonde and a brunette taking on the rest of their lives together. For YEARS we were inseparable. Spending days at the others house, going to amusement parks, dancing around on bales of hay, and begging Mamma Day to PLEASE let us keep the kittens that kept being born in the garage. Kaylie discovered how REAL my fear of snakes was by chasing me into their house with one... a house that no longer stands but the memories will be there forever. The same pictures are hanging on the fridge. Different house. Same HOME. And a home I am honored and BLESSED to have been a part of. We have watched each other go through so many stages of growth and life together. I couldn't think of anybody more fitting to stand next to me once again, just as she has since we were 8 years old.

Denise and Kimberly started out as neighbors and ended up best friends. From watching neighborhood drama on their front porches to becoming honorary aunts to each others boys. All the way to watching each other find the man of their dreams -  it's the kind of friendships they make movies about. Any dilemma, conflict, worry, or gossip- she's the first call. I could tell you every amazing thing she has done but it would take the entire website. She has saved my life... more times than once. If I am drowning hers would be the hand to reach out and save me. And she is one of the smartests nurses I have ever met - she really could save your life someday. Lord knows she's saved mine a few times. The type of person you are lucky to meet in your lifetime - making me exceptionally lucky to have her as one of my best friends.

There's a quote that says, "She didn't grow up with you, but from the moment she entered your life it felt like she had always been there. No long history, no childhood memories - just an instant effortless bond. Now life without her? Unimaginable. Because some friendships are not about how long you've known each other - they're about how deeply you feel seen, loved, and understood." 

This is our relationship to a T. T for TRISHA - one of the best women (and mothers) that walks the earth. A force of 50 hurricanes in a 5 ft glass. She is hardworking, kind, gentle, and thoughtful. If you need a sounding board (or a bitch board) she's your girl. Years of laughing, adventures, and playdates later... and the rest of our lives ahead! And to think... it all started from me becoming a regular at the post office...

The oldest of the Salvino sisters - following suit being the organized one who is incredibly detail oriented. Annette was my protector growing up. She made sure Monica didn't beat me up but would also be the first one to stick me in a time-out hula-hoop in the yard. Over the years, we have all grown up and evolved into very different people than we were as children. That is how it is supposed to go, but as the youngest, I can say a part of who I am is because I watched my sister's live life before me. I am 7 years younger than Annette, so I was absorbing her life lessons and experiences -and growing from it. She walked so I could run. As adults, we both were pregnant with our firsts together and watching her become a mother was such an amazing evolution to her story. Now our children are best friends and have the sibling-like relationship that WE got to have with OUR cousins, which is one of my favorite things in life. I am who I am today because of the sisters that came before me.

Q & A

This is a SUPER nice, magical, woodsy Airbnb in Salem. It gives the feel of seclusion in a beautiful and updated treehouse. It is only seconds from downtown where all the stores and restaurants are - making it very convenient.

The "Dreamcatcher" Treehouse Airbnb

Another charming Airbnb, this one right in downtown. It is within walking distance to a lot of the bars and restaurants on State Street. This house is split into two spaces, this Airbnb is in the top portion (second story) of the house.

Charming Suite in Historic Downtown

The Stables Inn and Suites is in Downtown Salem in the same building as Boneshakers Restaurant. Right around the corner is Quaker Steak and Lube, Coaches, Mikes Penn Grille, and my personal favorite... Totally 80's Icescream!
