Our Wedding

From the Classroom to the Altar

Who would have guessed that an email on a Spanish project would lead to a new romance that would lead us to a magical wedding and a future filled with possibilities. For more than 3 wonderful years we have been blessed beyond words to be able to grow, laugh, and love together...even with 100 miles separating us! From trips across Florida to late night runs to Steak n Shake, whenever we are together, there is always adventure to be found. We both know that with each other by our sides and God leading us, there is nothing that we cannot handle. We are beyond excited to be able to celebrate our union before you and before God and we hope that our love can be an example of Christ's love towards you. ‘For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and be united to his wife,&nbsp;and the two will become one flesh.’&nbsp;&nbsp;So they are no longer two, but one flesh. Therefore what God has joined together, let no one separate.Mark 10:7-9

Our Story

My name is Cheyenne and I am so fortunate to be able to say that I have known Sarah since elementary school. Always being a few degrees apart in separate classes though, I didn’t truly get to know Sarah as one of my very best friends as she is now until our high school years. Up until that point, she was always just the smart, quiet girl with the amazing curly brown head of hair who I saw in the halls and who I had some mutual friends with. In high school, I truly got to know Sarah while in classes together and even moreso, through Alyssa Mulroy, our longtime friend who sadly passed away in 2016. I am forever thankful to Alyssa for the incredible bond she helped create between the three of us and for helping me to learn that the pretty, curly-haired girl I always saw in school was also one of the kindest, funniest, passionate, most caring and intensely intellectual people I’d ever meet. Friends like Sarah only come around once in a blue moon and I am so happy that she has found someone as deserving of her as Jacob, who is equally as kind-hearted and wonderful as she is. I’m so excited for their future together and for all the beautiful curly haired babies that are sure to come one day (forever jealous of both their hair). And I know Alyssa, after some heavy vetting and interrogation, would absolutely feel the same 💜

Heyo, I’m Jessica! I have no idea how to write about myself, so I’m just gonna wing it. I can say that, right? Anyway, I’m a Registered Nurse and an avid lover of fun facts. I met Sarah in Elementary School and, while we were never in the same class, I remember seeing her in the library one day and asking her if she’d be willing to vote for my entry for the yearbook cover drawing contest. Whether she voted for me or not remains to be said, but I’d like to think she did. I didn’t end up winning the contest, but in my mind that election was rigged anyway. I can say that too, right? I mean, there’s no way that other kid should’ve won two years in a row. Elementary School Bureaucracy, if you ask me. Tangent aside, Sarah is one of the best humans I’ve had the pleasure of being friends with. I am eternally grateful to her for her friendship and all of the Starbucks and laughter that comes with it. While I haven’t known Jacob nearly as long, I do know he is a wonderful person who would stop at nothing to make Sarah feel loved and happy. I’m so excited for them to begin their new chapter together and am so grateful to be a part of their celebration. With that being said, ¡Felicidades a los novios!

Kaitlin and I met at work and bonded over the misery one only experiences in retail pharmacy. Evidently, it was a strong bond, strengthened by weekly trips to BJ's (for their prime rib special), monthly massages, and girl trips to the salon. When I need someone to listen to me and give me some bold advice... Kaitlin is my girl. As an only child, I never got to experience what it's like to have a sister, but Kaitlin filled that gap in my life. I love you!

This is Brianna and her son Chester. Bri and I met in middle school. She was always the genius in class with a little bit of an attitude problem (it's hard being the smartest person in the room). High school would not have been the same without Bri and her house that very quickly became the favorite hangout spot. Sometimes we meet up and try to solve the world's problems over coffee, or beer. I'm grateful for each one of our conversations and know that I have a lifelong friend!

Jason and I met in elementary school. He has always been one of the sweetest, kindest people in my life. No matter what we end up doing, it's always a good time. We can always vent about our crazy Italian mothers together. Although we have a long-distance friendship now, when we hang out, we can always pick up where we left off. I'm so grateful to have him in my life!

This is my older cousin Brandon. Brandon was pretty much my older brother growing up and it always showed with his teasing of me (it was all in good fun). From making up fake Pokemon to playing countless hours of SmackDown vs Raw there are dozens of great memories. With how big he is he has a personality that is as gentle as they come. He’s wise beyond his years and there aren’t many other people I know who are as Biblically sound as he is. One way I would describe our relationship would be to think about Will and Carlton from the Fresh Prince of Bel-Air.

This is my little cousin Danny. He’s interesting to say the least. I’m pretty sure that his picture is next to the definition of outgoing in the dictionary. He is full of energy but at the same time is an extremely caring person. Danny and I’s relationship has only grown stronger throughout the last few years and he has continually impressed me with his maturity at his young age. Even with his maturity I’m still hoping he gets to the wedding on time because he definitely lives in that Puerto Rican time frame.

This is Greg, my brother from another mother. I swear this is the only person on the planet that can bring out my New York accent without fail. We met in college during my very naïve time and he stuck by me then. Jokes aside he is as dependable and real as they come, no beating around the bush and no sugarcoating things. We have a very adult friendship in that we will go weeks or months without talking and just be able to pick up in no time. Friends like him don’t come around too often and I am glad that we were able to build this relationship...even though he is from Jersey.

Greg

This is Joshua, my brother. It’s weird to think back to when we were kids because I can vividly remember all the times that we would play with power rangers or play Mario Kart together. We weren’t always close through high school but after we were both in college our relationship really just grew from there. I know that I can count on him to have a good time and laugh about just about everything as well as be able to have deep theological conversations in the middle of a Miller’s Ale house. Whatever happens I know I can count on him, even though he is a jíbaro.
