Kerri is my Maid of Honor and has had the pleasure of being there for me for over 40 years! Choosing her to be by my side on this day was a no-brainer ❤️ She takes care of everyone and everything and has a bigger heart than anyone I know. Kerri has always supported me no matter what crazy idea I have come up with! She gives more than she gets and is happy to do so. Buying herself new shoes? Kristin gets a pair too! Decides to go to Punta Cana, Kristin gets to go too! So happy to have her by my side on my big day and everyday!

Melissa has been my ride-or-die since we were 10! Melissa is the embodiment of everything you could ever want in a friend and, along with my sister, knows me better than I know myself. Melissa and I met at 10 and spent the next thirty years having one adventure after another. Whether it was taking modeling pictures or walking to the mall when we were younger, traveling around the Northeast going to raves or biking around Amsterdam in our early twenties, or driving with me back and forth to Louisiana, I could not imagine a world in which my friendship with Mel did not exist and I cannot imagine a wedding day without her by my side!

Christa and I met at Penn State. She was one of the first people I met and now is one of my oldest and dearest friends. Christa's nature is to nurture, and she has been taking care of me for over 20 years. Whether it is tossing a can of soup at my head when I was sick or moving me out of my house when my first engagement went south. She has always been there for me, and I have no doubt that she will always be there for me. She has been helping me plan my upcoming wedding for almost two decades and I am glad she stood by me all these years and will be standing by me on October 5th!

Erin and I also met at Penn State! Erin and I bonded from the moment we met and have had a connection for over twenty years, despite distance always being between us. Over the years, we have managed to have our share of fun whether it was me visiting her in California, she visiting me in NOLA, or us joining Christa in Austin. Regardless of time and distance, Erin has managed to stay a major part of my life. Erin is fiercely loyal and undeniably strong. Any person is lucky to have her in their life and I am incredibly luckily to know that she is only a phone call away. I am lucky to have her by my side in life and on my big day!

No party is complete without a Houseparty! I wanted to make sure that my close friends that I see and talk to everyday would be a part of my big day! My first memory of Amy was dancing in a club together back in 2010. This amazing woman and I had fun then and still continue to have fun today! Next is my wonderful friend Janna. We met at the gym over a decade ago, made a connection, and have spent every day since then talking and hanging out! Often mistaken for my twin, next is Kristen. Her loyalty and love of skincare made us a perfect match as friends! Finally, the newest person to my team is Amanda. Amanda and I met a few years ago, IYKYK. Her fun personality and loving spirit have made us inseparable since we met!

Jeremy and Mike hit it off several years ago and their friendship has only gotten better over the past few years. We acknowledge how funny this is, but we are grateful that we all have such a strong friendship!
