This is Mandy, she's been one of my best friends for as long as I can remember. It seems like every major milestone in my life she has been a huge part of and our wedding is no different. She's one of the smartest people on the planet and is currently finishing up her Masters from FSU in Information Services. She wants to one day be a head Librarian for a huge library. She loves the Jags, her dog Bailey, books, and having fun! 

Ahh..the other Mandy :) She too has been one of my best friends forever. We've watched her babies grow up, I've gone from being Rielly's "fairy odd mother" to Rielly's emergency contact! Mandy loves to write, love and laugh, and she is filled with the last two. 

Tarasa, my original Jags buddy. We've had so many fun times at Jags games, behind the bar at Bonefish, we're always laughing when we're together. She's so so so brave, she moved to Washington DC on her own and is having a blast. I miss her so much, but distance can't keep us apart! 

Oh Jennifer, I just love her. This is my future sister, and I know now why I didn't have any sisters by birth--Jennifer is all the sister I need! She's so much fun and absolutely hysterical. We traveled the Badlands, cracked up while John was patiently explaining the rules to pinochle. We're going to visit her in San Fran for Thanksgiving and I can't wait to see her again. 

Jake is John's brother, and soon to be my brother! If the world were ending the two of them would be able to hatch a plan to keep us safe--head for North Dakota! Jake is incredibly smart, cracks me up and tells stories better than anyone I know! 

Ohh Steven! One of John's best and oldest friends. Steve lived down here in Florida for awhile but recently moved back up to the ND to be closer to his family. We're working on getting him back down here though :) Steve makes school look easy, loves good rock n roll, and having a good time! 

This is Adam, he was John's first ever roommate. From the stories John has told me Adam is one of the funniest people ever, and can always beat John in Madden...John claims he cheats though :) 

This is Jeff, one of my oldest and dearest friends. Jeff is Mandy's husband, dad to three amazing kiddos, and the hardest working person I've ever met. He's even pulling double duty at the wedding! Jeff is not only a groomsman but also catering our wedding. Jeff is the Chef and Restaurant Manager for the Marriott Sawgrass here in Jacksonville. He can do amazing things with food, and I can't wait for you all to enjoy what he creates.
