Matron of Honor
My sister and my life long best friend. She’s been there for me through it all. Of course we fought all the time growing up as typical sisters do. But once we got older, we realized how much better we would be as friends. I would never survive this life without kylee. She has been there through everything. Shes a mentor, a therapist, cheerleader, support system and a reality check when I need one. She was my rock through all the rough stages of my life, especially as a new parent. She jumped in at all times to help with Brayden. She’s also the best aunt in the world ❤️ Shes the best sister and aunt. Shes the initial catalyst that caused Danny and I to meet. My best friend. I wouldnt be able to make it without her. Favorite food: Perogies and Desserts Drink: Coffee Things: Miles, books, cats. At the wedding you will find her: dancing with the kids, holding my dress or hanging out at the cookie table.

Bridesmaid
Mary Jo (also known as MJ) and Jessica met at shadyside hospital when they worked together in the ER. Rough shifts in the ER brought them together. You know when you meet those people as adults and you just click. You never have to pretend of put on a front around them. That is who MJ is to me. I've always been able to be my pure authentic self around MJ. She takes the good, bad and ugly with no judgement. Shes also just unapologetically honest, which I love. Favorite food: waffles Drink: Coffee Things: Books, camping, outdoors, mushrooms At the wedding you will find her: doing some hilarious party trick, at the bar, making people laugh, cuddled up with Michael Fun Fact: MJ is also getting married this year in October of 2024.

Chris is Danny’s little brother. I guess not so little due to the fact everyone thinks he’s the older brother and also after getting fitted for suits we are exactly the same measurements. I can’t remember much from when we were younger but we hung out all the time. We did everything together. Home videos always showed us working with dad doing projects around the house and digging out the backyard for our pool. Years later we had a house fire and we lost everything. Living in a hotel for 5 months we only had each other. Sadly we had different groups of friends and we werent as close for a while. I joined the army and Chris went to the Marines. But when our dad passed away, everything changed. Chris and I became closer than ever. Chris has always been the person you can call and he would stop what he was doing to help you. Out of us two, he is by far the better brother. Love you brother ! Thank you for always being you and putting up with me and my shenanigans! Favorite food: pizza Favorite drink: Pepsi Favorite things: anything that gets his adrenaline pumping At the wedding, you’ll find him anywhere but the dance floor. Most likely with his new fiancé Angie, picking on the kids or helping their mom Jeri
Bridesmaid
Mackenzie and I met at a mutual job at Juniper Grill over 10 years ago. We went to different schools but realized that we were both from the same town and hung out with the same people but during different time periods. We were instant friends. I spent almost everyday at mackenzies house or her parents. We were always together, going to south side to dance, lunch dates, late night christmas wrapping parties with her crazy neighbor. Weve been through so much together; different relationships, kids, moving to different states. No matter how close or far apart, we always pick right up where we left off. Favorite food: Drink: Things: lifting weight, running, traveling At the wedding you will find her on the dance floor with her husband. Fun Fact: Mackenzie and John currently live in Colorado. John fight professionally with MMA and Mackenzie competed in multiple bikini competitions this year and won novice!

JD and Danny met while serving together in the army. Now JD is actually Jessicas brother in law. Small world. Best friends marrying sisters. From Danny: “I didn’t know the day I signed my contract for the army would have led to this. My first drill weekend was JDs first drill weekend after returning from a deployment. We didn’t know each other but first impressions were not good. Long story short Joseph Mojica realized damn this guy is much cooler than me, I gotta be his friend so the nice guy I am I brought him under my wing. We became closer through drills, going away for military etc and became really close when JD and Kylee got together. Which made this love story possible. Because of meeting JD in the military led to us dating sisters ( even tho Kylee was very against it ) and us becoming the “ the 4 amigos “. So hats off to you JD for not knowing that first drill weekend would have started this journey. Motorcycles, tattoos, running journeys, 4 amigo vacations and always trying to one up each other. Now we have families and it’s only getting better from here. Love you brother!” Favorite food: Tacos Favorite drink: whiskey (something expensive) Thing: Tattoos, miles, weight lifting and running At the wedding you’ll find him on the dance floor, grinding on somebody or at the bar taking shots.
Flower Girl
Our little peanut. Our sassy girl. Our little babe, Rilyn. Rilyn is definitely the typical second kid. She gives us a run for our money. She’s wild and sassy and loves to point a finger and say no. But she’s also the sweetest, most empathetic little baby. She’s always the first to come give you a hug and see if you’re okay if you get hurt. Favorite Food: applesauce Favorite Drink: milk Favorite things: snacks, causing a ruckus, being sassy, hanging with her brother
