Maid of Honor
Emily and Amy met at West Virginia University when they were both college freshman. They were both members of the WVU Marching Band and in the 5 year teacher education program. Our friendship has grown so much since we met!! We both love to be outside hiking, camping, traveling, and exploring new places and have made it a priority to go on a road trip every summer since we have graduated college. So far we have been on 4 trips to a ton of places across the US and we are already planning for our next adventure!
Bridesmaid
Maura is Emily's cousin. Growing up as Emily's only girl cousin was always so fun. I can remember her painting my nails, having sleepovers, etc. One thing that creates our special bond is that we are both teachers so we always have something to talk about with each other. I am so blessed to be apart of her special day!
Bridesmaid
Katie is the sister of the groom and future sister-in-law of the bride. When she met Emily she instantly knew that she was Bryan’s perfect match! She loves any beachy or outdoor activity and chases 3 little boys around each day- AKA the Ring Bearers to Uncle Bryan & Aunt Emily!
Bridesmaid
Emily and I met when we both got hired as Life Skills teachers at Ruth Ann Monroe Primary School in Hagerstown, MD. They were a dream team at school and soon became close outside of school. Madison’s husband, her "best friend", and Madison kidnapped her a time or two to go on late night donut runs or go eat some pretzels at the Dutch Market. When Emily left Hagerstown, they stayed close and are always just a call away for teaching and life advice. I am so happy that Emily and Bryan found each other and I can't wait to see what life has in store for them in the future.
Bridesmaid
After almost 15 years of friendship and many adventures together, Rhiannon is so excited to stand by Emily on her biggest adventure yet! Since becoming friends freshman year of high school, they grew closer over the years with their common love of corny humor, adventures, and general mischief.
Bridesmaid
Emily and Elise have been friends since high school. We met after being cast in similar roles for a fall drama show. During high school, we shared many other similar roles in the fall dramas and spring musicals, including being cast as Thing 1 and Thing 2 together. This sums up our friendship over the last 14 years, as it has been filled with hours of laughter, silliness, and shenanigans. I am so excited and honored to be a part of Emily and Bryan's special day!

Emily and Alyssa met on their first day of college at WVU at a campfire and became instant friends. They lived together through college and went on many crazy adventures. Emily and Alyssa were also in the Pride of WV Marching Band together.
While Nicky might just be Bryan’s sister-in-law, her and Emily quickly became friends while volunteering for the South Hills Special Needs Color Guard. Nicky can’t wait to ‘officially’ have Em as a sister and the future Mr. & Mrs. as the sweetest aunt and uncle to Baby Boy!
