Michelle's "high school sweetheart", these two have been joined at the hip since a fateful math class senior year. Michelle was honored to be her maid of honor in 2012 and all these years later, the favor is returned. Niki is always Shelly's cheerleader!

Kristin and Michelle have been two blondes palling around together since elementary days at Miller School of Dance. Their friendship has blossomed like a well nurtured garden over the years; Kristin is a beautiful and integral part of Michelle's life!

Alex is Michelle's first cousin who was like a little sister to her over the years. They have had many fun adventures together, from playing "house" together as kids to actually being roommates! "Big Al" has been a constant source of support and joy for Michelle.

Julia is Michelle's rock-solid first cousin who was like a big sister to her over the years. They've shared countless laughs (some to the point of tears), a plethora of family memories, and a passion for helping others in the medical field.

Caroline and Michelle have a unique story, where they are sisters that did not meet each other until they were in their late teens. But, they have more than made up for that fact, with being together for many pivotal and everyday life events! Caroline inspires with her zest for life!

Katie and Michelle have been extremely close since their high school days (meeting through dance). Michelle always felt welcomed not only by Katie, but by her people too, including beach trips and many local shenanigans! Katie's down-to-earth humor is always a highlight!

Amber and Michelle bonded through the art of dance, and have continued to clap for one another throughout the years! Simply put, Amber makes everything better. Whether it's enjoying a silly inside joke, a much needed girls night, or a life milestone, Amber has faithfully been there.
