Matron of Honor
Marin and I have been bonded since birth, growing up just down the road from each other. From summers spent playing with American Girl dolls, baking with her Easy-Bake oven, and spending many nights playing board games, we've shared countless memories. When Marin and her husband Tom got married, I had the privilege and honor to stand by her side as her Maid of Honor. I'm ecstatic for her to stand next to me as my Matron of Honor. Despite living across the country from each other, we’ve remained as close as ever. I couldn’t imagine my big day without her by my side.
Matron of Honor
Courtney and I became friends in 6th grade, when we were locker buddies during my first year back in public school. She is truly the kindest person I know and has always been my guiding light. Throughout middle and high school, we were inseparable, and I often felt like an honorary member of the Gaston family. I had the honor of standing next to Courtney as her maid of honor on her big day, and now she gets to do the same for me! Courtney is now a nurse in North Carolina where she puts her kind heart and caring hands to work every day. She is also mom to two adorable stubby-legged dogs. I couldn’t imagine this day without her.

Kayla and I initially met as coworkers, but it didn’t take long for us to realize we were soul sisters.

Kayla’s passion and drive are nothing short of inspiring, and her contagious positive energy makes every moment with her unforgettable.

Nicole loves fiercely, and her loyalty has made her one of the most treasured friends in my life. Our friendship is raw, genuine, and something I deeply cherish. Now living in Florida with her fiancé, Alec, we still make time for our long talks and share the little and big moments of life together.

Emily and I have been friends since college, and she’s the caregiver of our friend group. Thoughtful down to the tiniest details, Emily’s caring nature is unmatched.

Smart, insightful, and bold, Emily co-plans our yearly trips with Sarah, ensuring we’re always cared for and laughing. Her warmth and joy light up every moment, and I’m so lucky to have her by my side.

My brother and I have shared every phase of life together, and I feel truly blessed to have had him as my partner in everything. From childhood memories to being roommates and teammates in college rugby, we’ve always had each other's backs—celebrating wins and supporting each other through losses. After college, our bond only grew stronger. We now work together and live down the road from each other, and I can’t imagine life without him. His unwavering support, laughter, and love have meant the world to me, and having him as my best man is an incredible honor. I'm grateful for all the big moments and the small, everyday ones we’ve shared.

Miles and I have been friends since we were in 2nd grade, and we’ve shared a lot of unforgettable memories over the years. Growing up, he lived just up the street from me. His younger brother was great friends with my brother, Austin, so we often found ourselves all hanging out as a group. Miles was always the one leading the charge when it came to outdoor adventures. Whether it was a spontaneous backpacking trip or a fishing excursion, he was the one organizing the plans and getting everyone together.

Dan and I also became friends in college at the same time I met David. Our friendship quickly grew as we shared many memorable experiences together. I have also sailed on two ships with him. I have many fond memories of visiting Dan's family in Connecticut. Their warm hospitality and the peaceful surroundings made those visits truly special. I have always enjoyed his easy-going nature, love for adventure, and the joy he brings to those around him. Whether we were exploring the town or he was pushing my limits down a mountain, these years spent together hold a special place in my heart.
