| The Wedding Party |
| The following are the Bridesmaids and Michele's explanations of why she chose them. Like the groomsmen, each bridesmaid is special and has a unique bond with Michele. |
| Bridesmaids |
| MATRON OF HONOR: LYNNE GRAVES Since my earliest days in school Lynne has been the friend whom I could always talk to. It�s a rarity to have someone in your life who has known you through all of the years and challenges that life has to offer. That very rare perspective has allowed Lynne and I a special bond that could never be duplicated |
| MAID OF HONOR: MELANIE ESTRE . Having a high school buddy to hang around with is one thing, but having a special friend like Melanie around is something entirely different. Over the traditional friendly get togethers such as eating at Olive Garden and shopping, Melanie and I developed a connection that goes deeper than just friendship. Melanie is a devoted woman, spiritually, emotionally, and to her family. She is strong of heart, yet graceful at the same time. All of the these traits have made her unique in my life and someone whom I will always be able to look up to for inspiration. |
| BRIDESMAID: JAMIE FREEMAN Where to start? There are so many things to say about the little sister I never had, I don�t know where to begin. Jamie has a joy in her personality that is a wonder to behold. Her undying happiness and the ever present smile on her face has always been infectous to me. Her companionship and upbeat attitude have reminded me in the dark times that sometimes we can make those dark times go away just by force of our own will. Life can be a happy thing if we make it so and Jamie becomes my wise old teacher in that regard. |
| JUNIOR BRIDESMAID: KRISTEN PELUSO I chose Kristen as my junior bridesmaid to symbolize my new family. Kristen is loving, affectionate, intelligent, and sweet. Therefore she is the perfect representative for the Bridal party. Those traits are found throughout the Peluso family and she exemplifies them all. |
| FLOWER GIRL: KAYLA STUCKEY I chose my niece to represent the traditional ideals of innocence and new family that are the privy of the flower girl. Also, as my marriage grows and blossoms, so will her life. |
