Wedding Party

Michelle Gabriel

Bride

Daniel Sommerfeldt

Groom

Nicole Bonczek

Maid of Honor

The A1 since Day 1...well since 4th grade. The myth. The legend. The one Michelle promised could be her Maid of Honor on the playground and regrets the decision daily. Totally joking. Nicole threatened me for the position. Again. Joking. If Nicole asks, I am honored to have her as a best friend and Maid of Honor.

Matthew Sommerfeldt

Best Man

Jeremy Bowman

Bridesman

Michelle's Brother from another mother, thank you to Mary Bowman! Jeremy has been one of Michelle's best friends since high school. They followed each other through most of college. Living across from each other, seeing each other almost every day, going longboarding, and having each other's back through everything. Michelle's always wanted a brother, so the universe gave her Jeremy!

Aly Domantay

Bridesmaid

Aly, or as we call her Lil' Aly, is the sweetest, most loving friend. Aly and Michelle met during the retail days. From the first day, it was an instant connection. Aly and Michelle have shared many moments of laughter and endless nights of fun. She has the most beautiful singing voice you have ever heard. Now we wait for her record deal.

Brisa Valencia

Bridesmaid

Michelle could not imagine a world without Brisa. I don't think there is a world without Brisa. Life with Brisa started in retail 8+ years ago, and then the friendship took over. They followed each other through jobs because they couldn't stand to be apart. Brisa is like Michelle's adopted mom. She is such a special, incredible, and beautiful friend. Michelle couldn't imagine getting married without Brisa by her side.

Kelly Wallace

Bridesmaid

College Best Friends to now being Bridesmaids at each others weddings. Kelly and Michelle survived the KSU Education Program together. Michelle saw Kelly one day in one of her classes on the first day of class and immediately decided that she would become her best friend. True Story! Michelle sat next to Kelly and made it a point to make sure they were paired together in all projects from that moment forward. The friendship turned into an inseperatable love of each other. Kelly has just welcomed the most wonderful nugget into the world, Everett (or as we call him, Bean). Michelle vows to be the best Titi to Bean!!

Ciara Wilkie

Bridesmaid

Michelle could not be where she is without Mrs. Wilkie ;)! Ciara and Michelle met their first year teach at Norton Park Elementary. I don't think they could have gotten through Virtual and Hybrid teaching if they didn't have each other. Ciara is probably one of the most stylish people Michelle has ever met. She thankfully has the same sense of humor as Michelle. She was also there after Michelle's first date with Daniel. She was the first person Michelle told about their first date and how she knew he was the one she would marry. Of course, Ciara thought Michelle was insane, but after meeting Daniel she quickly agreed. Michelle is loving being able to prove Ciara right by making her a bridesmaid so she can be front row at the wedding that she once thought Michelle was crazy for thinking would happen. Totally joking! But she still deserves front row!

Aria and Roland Rey

Flower Squad

The Duo!! Aria and Roly Rey!!!! The flower squad!!!! Michelle couldn't get married without her cousin squad being there to through petals on the aisle and in your face. Wait until you see how cute they are though! They will also be the cutest nuggets breaking it down on the dance floor with Michelle. These are 2 of her best friends, mainly because they have no choice but to put up with Michelle, but also because they weirdly like having her as a cousin.
