Our Wedding Party
Meet our Wedding Party: {How we met}{What they do}{A little fact about each}
Julie Herbert
Matron of Honor
Maria's Sister, Julie, lives in New Jersey with her husband Chris and 3 kids: Chrissy (6) & Grace (5) and Ethan (1). She has been a bartender at a sports bar for 13 years now. I wish we lived close to each other, but we still talk about everything and anything! She is the best and I always have looked up to her. I love how I can have an older sister like her to be able to share things with and to get advice with whatever is on my mind. And I myself am honored and very excited to have her as my matron of honor!
Nichole Libretto
Maid of Honor
Maria's cousin, Colie, (what I call her for short) is a paramedic and absolutely loves her job! Colie and I grew up together here in our hometown doing everything together. She is not only a cousin, she is an amazing friend to have. In her spare time, when she is not working or studying, she loves watching movies. Growing up with a great cousin close to me has led to fun times especially traveling with our family. I know she would do anything for me and I would do anything for her and it is my pleasure for her to be my maid of honor.
Melissa Schoolcraft
Bestest Bridesmaid :)
Melissa and I began seriously from day one. Her parents and mine were best friends and they were in the hospital waiting for me to born. We have been through everything together growing up and her family is mine and my family is hers. It has been fun having the experience with her growing up, getting married, and having children. Melissa is married to Brad with an amazing little one: Austin (3) who is also a ring bearer. She is a full time stay at home mom. I was honored to be Melissa's Maid of honor for her wedding and I am honored for her to be bestest bridesmaid. I would do absolutely anything for her!
Danielle Martinez
Bridesmaid
Danielle and I met in high school and were friends in a group to start and then became friends on our own. She is the best friend to talk to with whatever it might be. Danielle is married to Mario and they now live in Wisconsin where Mario is attending grad school. Danielle graduated from USF (tampa) with a bachelor's in physcology. Till this day we talk weekly about everything that is going on in our lives and I absolutely love having long conversations with her. I was also one of Danielle's bridesmaids and I can't wait to have more fun with her being one of mine.
Sara Hallas
Bridesmaid
Sara and I grew up in the same neighborhood from elementary school through the end of high school. Sara is attending college to become a grade school teacher. She is great with kids and an all around peoples person. And yes, people all the time say we look alike. (lol) We have had so many good times together from school bus stops through high school to legally being able to drink. (Especially with our birthdays 2 days apart) She is such an amazing friend to have and to just be around! I am looking forward to having fun times with her as one of my bridesmaid.
Christine Gorski
Bridesmaid
Pj's sister is the sweetest thing! Christine is married to Grant and has a little one herself, Kailyn (our flower girl) who is just beautiful. Christine works with children who have disorders such as autism. It is awesome for her to be doing that for the children and she absolutely loves to help them. It has been so much fun becoming friends and soon to be family. I am so excited for her to be one of my bridesmaids and I couldn't ask for a better sister in law.
Grace Herbert
Flower Girl
Maria's niece, Gracie, is 5 years old and loves to dance (taking after her aunt (me) with dance lessons at an early age) Grace is Julie and Chris's daughter who live in New Jersey. I love spending time with her when I get the chance to and I can't wait to see her all dressed up for our wedding and dance the night away.
Kailyn Gorski
Flower Girl
PJ's neice, Kailyn, is just so happy smiling all the time. She is the daughter of Christine and Grant Gorski. I think she looks like Christine especially in this picture. It has been fun watching her grow into a toddler with her amazing personality. Kailyn will put you in a good mood because she is so happy and so darn cute! I also can't wait to see her all dressed up in a little dress for our wedding.
