Maid of Honor
Carolyn is one of my closest friends and, by living with her for four years at St. John's, I've learned that I can always count on her to be quirky, considerate, and compassionate, to plan a dinner party with a days notice, to listen to my problems no matter how ridiculous, and to be always prepared with thoughtful advice.
Matron of Honor
Emily is the sweetest friend! Whether we are writing essays at St. John's at 4 a.m., jamming to of Montreal, sharing a picnic in the aspens, or planning our weddings via Skype, I know can count on her to remain silly, generous, thoughtful and kind.
Bridesmaid
Jenna has been Robbie's and my roommate for the past two years in Austin and has grown to be one of our best friends. Jenna is always ready for a trip to Trader Joe's, to go on a hike, to help me improve my push up form, or to play a Finnish lawn game. She is also one of the most bubbly, tolerant and verbose people that I know and I know I can rely on her to cheer me up when times are difficult.
Bridesmaid
Kedzie has been Robbie's and my friend since we were at St. John's College. She is an incredibly determined, ambitious, and kind person. She is a blast to hang out with and will persevere no matter the set back in order to help a friend. Kedzie is always ready to help provide a solution, a recipe, an ear, or a drink. We are so glad that Kedzie lives so close to us!
Best Man
It is very rare to have friends who have grown up with you and continue to grow with you. Axel and Same have been my best friends since elementary school. When we were kids, we used to wander around Wailuku Elementary Field pretending to be wizards or sci-fi characters as we grew our concerns grew from spells to the great questions of life, but either way Axel has been someone who I could have confidence in.

Groomsman
Much of my growing up I had Sam as a friend. We hiked Iao Valley, followed stray cats, or played "wizards or magic" with Axel. Later, we still hiked, but our discussions matured and he was awed by my dreams as I was by his. Dark nights star gazing, he was still the first to spot a stray cat. My home has a Celtic knot Sam painted for me, which came from a boast and was presented three years later as a surprise.
