Jessi Scully (Maid of Honor)
I met Jessi in a dark and sketchy alleyway at Will Rice College in 2007, but fortunately she wasn’t scared away and agreed to be my roommate a couple years later. Lucky for me, she’s ok with messy roommates and people who press the snooze button 10 times before getting up. She’s a master at creating shower playlists for the Will Rice girls’ 3rd floor bathroom. She and her sister Alli share many things, including red hair, beings twins, elite athleticism, the same major, a love of board games, graduating dental school, and being my maid of honor.

Alli Scully (Maid of Honor)
You might think that red-headed girl is all over the place, but there are in fact two of them! I also met Alli in a dark and sketchy alleyway at Will Rice College, but she WAS scared away… just kidding. She’s the originator and reigning champion of the Game Room Triathlon, consisting of competitions of pool, ping pong, and of course, foosball. She can beat you in any competition, from Nerf Wars to Wii games, but is nice enough to play with you anyway.

Avery Cate (Bridesmaid)
Avery has a family legacy at Rice University and Will Rice College, so it was more than just fate that brought us together in 2007. Avery is certified to be hardcore and issue patents. She was a mean center on Will Rice’s championship powderpuff football team and a natural surfer on the Hawaiian waves. Her fabulous roommate is Sage, the oh-so-sweet rescue greyhound with people-food-stealing ninja skills. Avery has powerful friends and is powerful herself, so watch out!

Amara DiFrancesco (Bridesmaid)
Idaho is best known for potatoes and, of course, Amara DiFrancesco! Amara’s love for animals (particularly manatees!) has only grown since I met her at Rice in 2007. Her pet bird, Ripley, and pet dog, Rowsie, are a constant source of interesting stories, and she now works with animals 24/7! As with many of my important decisions in school and in life, I have consulted Amara with numerous plans for my wedding, and she has been more than willing to help. Thanks, Amara!

Carissa Huq (Bridesmaid)
I never had a sister growing up (other than trying to make David play dress-up), so I am overjoyed that David finally asked Carissa to marry him so she could officially be the little sister I never had. I couldn’t have asked for a kinder or sweeter person… I raised her well. Like David, she went to UT, but I think she has fewer burnt-orange articles of clothing than he does, so we don’t have to worry about any rivalries among the sports-ers

Gina Leano (Hostess)
Gina and I have been friends since I was her advisor during orientation week (Bellagio-Week) at Rice in 2007. Over the years I have found that Gina is such a free spirit that she is often as hard to find as a sport she isn’t good at. However, we’ve managed to spend enough time together to realize we both love adventures and girls’ nights, although I’m not as adept as she is at trying new things like aerial yoga and learning Portuguese for fun.
