Jennifer Wisz - Maid of Honor
Jessica met Jenny about 10 years ago while working at a restaurant together. Whenever they get together there’s always something to talk about; whether it’s the latest celebrity gossip, the newest reality show or recently their 2010 weddings they are planning. No matter what is happening in life they seem to always be going through the same things at the same time. I’m so grateful to have Jenny as a best friend and Maid of Honor.

Katie Thrun - Bridesmaid
Katie came into Jessicas life during gym class sophomore year in high school, 13 years ago. Katie instantly had Jessica laughing with her comedic personality and has kept her laughing in all situations ever since.

Arvind and Jessica both strongly feel their wedding day just wouldn’t be the same without Stacy being a part of it.

Jessica and Kristen have been in each other’s lives for 24 years through family friends. The two started working together in early 2001 and they soon realized how much they had in common and became the best of friends right away.

Jessica feels so blessed to have Kristen at her side on her wedding day.
