It’s only fitting that my two built-in best friends stand beside me on the most important day of my life.

Annika, My twin sister, my built-in best friend, my wombmate — Annika has been by my side since the very beginning. She’s someone I’ve admired my whole life, the best half of me, and the person who’s always known how to show up without being asked.

We served in the military together, and I can tell you firsthand: you can’t expect many people to stand up to a drill sergeant for you — but Annika did. That’s the kind of love and loyalty she carries, fierce and unwavering. I can always count on her to protect me, to challenge me, and to remind me who I am.

Having her by my side on this day means everything, because she’s been there for every moment that led to it. strong, loyal, selfless, and brave. You’re my best half and my truest friend, and I couldn’t imagine this day, or any day, without you.

Brielle, My little sister Brielle has been one of the brightest parts of my life — a constant source of love, laughter, and late-night companionship. She’s my Christina Yang, the one who knows me inside and out, and the greatest auntie my babies could ever have. Josh has learned by now that if he finds someone asleep on his side of the bed, it’s probably her — and we wouldn’t have it any other way.

She’s my movie night buddy, my Trader Joe’s run partner, my escape room teammate, and the one I can always count on to say “yes” to spontaneous plans — no hesitation, just love.

Brielle has this quiet, steady presence that makes everything feel lighter. She shows up in a million small ways that speak volumes, and she loves with her whole heart. Having her by my side as co-maid of honor feels like the most natural thing in the world — she’s always been right there beside me, and I know she always will be.

Together, you two have been my heart and my hype squad. Thank you for standing beside me — and sometimes carrying me — through every season of life. I love you more than words can say
