And we have a wedding party!

Phew!  After two months (Wow! We've been engaged for two months!) of waiting for and missing opportunities, Justin and I have finally managed to ask each of the people we wanted to be a part of our big day to be a part of our big day, and they've all said yes!

I apologize, in advance, for the lack of information about and insight how the groomsmen were chosen.  I am not Justin, and I don't want to speak to why he chose to ask the men he did.  Perhaps this will inspire Justin to blog..... ;)

So, the players will be....

Maid Of Honor:
  • My sister, Margaret, who I didn't need to ask when she was the first person to find out we were engaged, because she's always known she'd be my maid of honor!
Best Man:
  • Justin's brother, Dan
Bridesmaids: 
  • My best friend, Erica, without whom there would be no Justin and Monica!  We've been friends since a mutual high school friend, Jess, started calling me "Erica" and Erica "Monica" when we were 15, and we've managed to be friends despite the distance ever since!
  • Rachelle, my very special friend from my Buffalo days who has always been there when I needed her, including when I needed a date to my brother's wedding.  Rachelle has been to lots of holidays at Dad and Pat's house, and I can't imagine my wedding without her!
  • Nicole, who began teaching on the same team at the same as me, and who I quickly realized was someone I feel like I've been friends with my whole life, and who I hope I will be!
Groomsman:
  • Justin's brother, Phil
  • My brother, Ken
  • Justin's friend, Mike Jones, who you will most likely only hear referred to as "Jones"
And there you have it! Justin and I are super excited to have these amazing people stand with us when we get married!
