James - Best Man
James like everyone on this list played tennis with me at one time or another. For James, it was at CNU where we met as freshmen. From "studying" in the library to a million trips to a Korean BBQ place called Bob Bob we have spent a lot of time together over the last seven years I am very thankful to have such a great best friend. James is as stubborn as a mule and possibly the slowest person ever but he is a very moral and loyal friend. We just have to hope he can get ready for the wedding in time.
Avah - Maid of Honor
Avah has been a constant in my life since the day she made me a big sister. We have shared a lifetime of memories, traditions, and laughter, but sharing my special day with her is something I have been dreaming about since our childhood. Although she is my opposite, her and I have a special bond as sisters that I never take for granted. I am so excited and thankful to have the best side kick, built in best friend and sister as my maid of honor.
Ethan - Groomsmen
One time as a kid a tennis instructor asked what our goals were and thought I said, "I want to be like my brother." We all know that's not what I said. I wanted to beat Ethan. Ethan as my brother pushed me to constantly improve at everything from tennis to school to even board games. Ethan is one of the smartest people I have ever met and when he is not reading math textbooks he's a great brother. He was always supportive and there for me and was the best doubles partner I ever had. Even if I always served first.
Gracie - Bridesmaid
Gracie is my cousin and from drinking yoohoos as children to sipping on margaritas as adults our relationship has grown stronger, just like our drinks. We have built so many memories together including our trips to the river and the mountains. I wouldn't want to spend this special day without her optimistic and happy spirit.
Andy - Groomsmen
Andy was one year older on the CNU tennis team and has always been a great friend. He was always there for me even when times were tough (even if he was making fun of me) and his competitive spirit is always fun to be around. When he's not practicing law he spends most of his time training at golf. One day maybe it will pay off and he'll figure out how to beat me (not anytime soon).
Anna - Bridesmaid
Anna and I have known each other since we were three. A friendship that started as neighborhood girls riding bikes and creating obstacle courses, to now being young adults venting about work and life, either on the beach or at happy hour :) While thinking about which people I would want to be apart of my big day, I knew I wanted to share this day with my oldest friend by my side.
Paul - Groomsmen
Paul is often the life of the party. He's lighthearted and easygoing but always there for his friends. I have many memories of us having fun at tennis practices even if occasionally we had a bit too much fun. Someone needs to keep this dude out of trouble but they will always have a fun time doing it. It's been my honor to try (and sometimes fail) many times and I've enjoyed and remembered all of our time together.
Kyla - Bridesmaid
I met Kyla through Walter and I am so glad I found an amazing friend like you. While seeing Walter and I’s relationship grow, mine and Kyla's did as well. Even though most of our chats are limited to texts and FaceTime calls your friendship is filled with laughter and fun when we reunite. Kyla was there since day one of this adventure and this day would not be complete without her by my side.
Olivia - Junior Bridesmaid
Olivia my cousin from miles away, even though we don’t see each other so often memories with her are always the best. Sharing hoagies, walking miles in King of Prussia Mall, boogie boarding in the waves, and sunburnt days in VB, my day wouldn't be complete without Olivia's support.
