Groom's childhood friend

Caitlin is one of Sami's childhood best friends who has been there through everything. Ever since they met, the two have been inseparable. Throughout high school, separate colleges, Sami's move to PA, and now Caitlin's to FL, they remained extremely close and supported each other through every life stage. Once a month when they each have time, they call one another for 3+ hours to catch up on everything. Caitlin is one of the most kind and caring people Sami knows, and is extremely loyal. She will take a bullet for any of her friends, and displays many characteristics of Jesus to everyone she meets. Caitlin is your number one hype woman, and there was no question when it came to making Caitlin the maid of honor.

Serving as Sami's last college roommate, Sophie met the bride sophomore year of college and their friendship blossomed at a random dance party held in a lecture classroom. Sophie is extremely emotionally intelligent, and is the best shoulder to cry on. Odds are, she will cry right along with you and make you feel safe. She gets excited with you over the little things, and her smile has the ability to light up an entire room. Her musical and theatrical talents cannot be overlooked, and she uses them to worship and praise her Lord beautifully. After one conversation with Sophie, you will know the Lord better and see a glimpse of Him in her. There was no question in Sami's mind that Sophie would be an integral part of this big day!

If you think Sami is smart, just wait until you meet Joy. She passed nursing school whilst playing D3 softball and crushed every exam with only one night of studying. She is an ICU nurse who is attentive, intelligent, and caring. Joy met Sami through nursing, and they lived on the same floor for one year, growing closer over brushing their teeth together and walking to class. Joy is honest, an amazing listener, great advice-giver, and just amazing all-around friend. She cares about things other people don't notice, she is always up for an adventure and absolutely loves coffee runs with Sami. As Sami's first (and last) post-college roommate, Joy has played an integral part in the bride's life, and she could not be more grateful for their friendship. Without a doubt, she needed to be included as a bridesmaid on this day.

A true girls' girl, Siobhan is another one of Sami's childhood best friends. The two bonded quickly over Rainbow Loom, silly bandz, Jesus, the pool, and making sandwiches for the hungry. Siobhan is a fearless leader with a bold heart and kind soul. She's not afraid to tell you the truth when you need to hear it, and has a gift for making others feel loved and celebrated. Throughout multiple stages of life, Siobhan has continued to be a friend to Sami and the two always seem to pick up right where they left off when they get together. Siobhan is always the life of the party, and her presence indicates an unspoken rule that she be handed the aux cord during every single car ride ever. She is a crucial addition to the special day.

The newly named Mrs. Hilliard is everybody's favorite person. Liv is absolutely radiant, never without a smile on her face cheering on everybody and anybody. If you ever wondered what it means to be a godly wife, just have a conversation with Liv and you will quickly learn. She is slow to speak, quick to listen, selfless, loving, kind, intelligent, and much more. She was Sami's first friend at Messiah, and the entire reason for this wedding. Freshman year, Liv brought Sami to dinner with friends where she met her future husband. Liv will stick by your side no matter what, and she has a forgiving heart even when it is difficult. Everyone loves Liv, and nobody has anything negative to say of her. She is simply a beautiful person inside and out, and an essential addition to Sami's wedding day.

Yet another college nursing friend of Sami's, Kaitlyn Farah is full of life. She is forever up for an adventure, trying something new almost every week of her life it seems. She is wonderfully spontaneous, incredibly kind, emotionally intelligent, a fabulous dancer, and would be a spectacular model. She carries herself with grace and elegance without trying, impressing everyone around her with simply her presence. A devout Christian, she cares for her ICU patients well and strives to remind them of the Lord's presence during hard times in their lives. She was a dedicated study buddy, the two had so much fun with one another studying that it's a wonder how either of them passed exams. But, Sami wouldn't trade those memories for the world. Kaitlyn has been there for it all, and Sami needed her to play a big part in this special day.
