Angel and I met in OT school at West Virginia University. We instantly hit it off and lived together our final two years of college. Angel is no nonsense, driven, and an honest sounding board that I've called on many times over the years. Angel has always been an inspiration to me and is the reason I returned to school to pursue my doctorate. I couldn't imagine not having Angel by my side on my big day.

Fallon and I met through Instagram, of all places. We both represented the same company and were drawn together through our dogs. Fallon took a leap of faith in March of 2019 and flew internationally to meet me and stay with my family. We've been 'inseparable' ever since. I can count on Fallon for just about anything, she is diplomatic, honest, and gives the most well-rounded advice.

So I met this dude in 1992. He was okay, a little whiney, but I got over it. From wanting to constantly kill each other to now; things have certainly changed. For starters he was always a little guy I could pick on, but unfortunately now I’m the little guy. I have always had this kid’s back, mom and dad made me do it. As we have grown, I’m finding that having a brother is pretty sweet. Chris is my best friend and is always there for me, I couldn’t imagine not having him stand by my side on the big day.

Josh is the cousin I never knew I had. After reconnecting with my family in Maryland I met Josh back in 2015. Since then it has been like a Step Brothers and Hangover movie redux. I can always count on him, especially for advice, not that I always take great advice well. Even though we live far apart he’s never more than a phone call or drive/ flight away. I’m so glad I get to call him family, cousin and another brother.

One of my favorite things about marrying Mike is that I also get to add Emelia to my life. I love this sassy little chick as my own and obviously there was no question she’ll be standing right up there with us.
