I'm so excited that you said YES to being my bridesmaids! It means so much to me to have you girls with me on my special day, and I want you all to know how much your friendship means to me. You have all helped me through different parts in my life, and your support and advice has carried me to where I am today.
Meet the bridesmaids:
Maid of Honor: Samantha Mullan (AKA Sammysauce)
She and I have grown up together, ever since our bonding experience working at Bob Evans (downonthefarm!) together (My first job). Sammy went to Miami University (Oxford) to get her pre-med degree and came back to Cincinnati (yay!) for med school. She works in a community garden and likes trivia nights.
Matron-of-honor: Alicia Suguitan-Morrow (It still feels weird to type that).
Alicia and I lived together for 3 years (and are still friends, hooray!) in Cincinnati before she moved up to Madison, Wisconson in August with her newly-wedded husband (still feels weird to type that too!) Justin. She asked me to be in her wedding, so I asked the same thing of her!
Bridesmaid: Mere Gehres
Mere and I met at Bowling Green during my one semester there. She and I spent many late nights in the art building fueled by too many Mountain Dews. She's a born nomad, living in Bowling Green, Michigan, New York and Georgia. She's working in Atlanta now, making some
really awesome ceramic figures. We recently took a trip to Nashville, where we had too much fun, listened to awesome music and ate at Waffle House.
Bridesmaid: Christina Burton
She currently lives in Lynchburg, VA with her awesome boyfriend Cory. She's Matt's sister (duh) and so I've known her for almost 7 years! She and Alicia grew up together, too.
Bridesmaid: Katie Brown
Katie and I met at UC through Alicia, or DAAP (I don't remember, honestly). We developed the same group of friends in our first year at UC. Katie is my favorite drinking buddy, she makes me dinner occasionally (once with candles, how romantic!), and she makes sure my bras fit right (she works in the lingerie department at Nordstrom).
