As my younger brother, he plays a special role in our lives. Although he didn't choose either of us, he wouldn't have it any other way. He is the leader of the crew in dropping movie quotes into every conversation and let's be honest, Karmin typically has no clue what he's talking about. When you put us in the same room together, it never ends. You can likely find him at the swim-up bar in Mexico!
Arguably, Drake takes the credit for kicking off this relationship. As one of my best friends from college and working with Karmin at the hockey arena, he has been there for us since the first night we met. It was a battle to see whose side he would stand on at the wedding, but you can see who won. Drake has a very special place in both of our hearts and we couldn't imagine this day without him.
Jake (Bo) and my friendship dates back to the days of freshman year football. It took some time, but eventually I took the "Carriage Hill Crew" to the "Carriage Hill Crew + Drew" to what is now known as the "Filthy Five." As everyone went their separate ways for their college years, Bo was really the one to keep me in the loop. It was during those years that we grew even closer. We can't wait to be a part of his (& Kendra's) special day and we are so happy that they get to be part of ours.
Another member of the "Filthy Five," Dalton is my go-to for advice and a good time. No matter what or where, Dalton will always be there for whoever needs him. And that's what we love the most about him.
They say the best way to learn about someone is to live together, vacation together, and spend basically every waking moment together. Sarah and I met freshman year of college and have been best friends since. Although Drew ruined Sarah's engagement plans, she still somehow agreed to come to the wedding!
Claire and I have been friends for about 20 years. From toddlers at daycare to growing up playing sports, and spending every weekend together from about the time we were in 6th grade on, it just wouldn't be right to not have her by my side. She is the life of the party and nobody makes us laugh harder!
