    My MOH is my best friend. We met in June of 2001 at summer camp, so we were both 5!

    My Matron of Honor is my mother, she is my best friend and we do so much together. I couldn't imagine having anyone else standing beside me on my wedding day.

    My maid of Honor and I have known each other almost 15 years. We met back in middle school but weren't that good of friends until high school. She's an amazing woman and I love her! I couldn't imagine having my wedding without her standing next to me.

    My MoH is my cousin. We were always super close when we were younger, and lost contact with each other for few years. As soon as we got in contact again it was like we never stopped talking!

    My matron of honor and I met in 1997 during our Freshman year of high school.

    I've known my MOH for almost 3 years. When we met she was having a bad day at work and was on a smoke break and basically I went up to her, told her we were going to be friends, and then said that I had to go back to work, and went back inside. She was a little confused by me, wasn't quite sure if that actually happened, and didn't think we were going to be friends. I then proceeded to hang out and talk with her on my breaks, and basically forced myself into being her friend. I'm so grateful that she's in my life and don't know what I'd do without her.

    No other bridesmaids, just my mom. My younger brother is also going to be best man, It's a very small ceremony; family only at the ceremony.

    About eight years we met freshman year of college she’s more like a sister though. (Which is nice since I grew up with two brothers)
