The Lovely Ladies

Sarah Brown
Maid of Honor

Sarah is - obviously - Josie's younger sister. She currently attends Arcadia University, just outside of Philadelphia. She is going into her senior year this fall and is a Communications major. She currently works at Hollywood Tans and spends a lot of time with her girlfriends and boyfriend Nick in Wyncote, where she lives in a totally swank apartment building that is nicer than our house.

Ashley Pontius
Bridesmaid

Ash and Josie attended American University together and lived together in Hughes Hall, where they mostly horrified the populace with loud commentary on politics and the Annual Christmas Elvis Presley/Mariah Carey Dancefest. Interestingly enough, Ash and Josie were also born at the same hospital in Harrisburg, PA. Ashley is currently working as a news producer in Amarillo, TX and lives with her boyfriend Jon and their dog, Lucy.

Cecilie Huseby
Bridesmaid

Cecilie stayed with Josie's parents as an exchange student from Norway. She and Josie spent a lot of time together during her year here, not least of all on a Carribean cruise with Josie and Ashley, which all survived unscathed. She is currently preparing to take exams to begin school to become a doctor, and spending her free time travelling to fabulous locales to the envy of all.


Celia Ozereko
Bridesmaid

Josie and Celia have known each other since college, and even though Celia has moved to her home state of Washington with her husband, Jarrod, another college friend of both ladies. Celia is the mom of two (two!) adorable children, Zoe and Dominic. Jo and Celia spend most of their time developing Russian conspiracy theories and discussing literature, politics and music. Celia also shares her extensive wisdom in the areas of green living and cooking (...seriously guys, WOW the cooking), which Josie takes in but rarely has the skills to imitate. Someday! Someday.


Luciana Herman
Bridesmaid

Lucy and Josie are writing and fashion addicts who have built their friendship on an affinity for sarcasm and profanity. One of last year's best adventures was a trip to the Harvard Bookstore (that involved chasing a commuter rail train to Framingham...no lie) to see mutual favorite David Sedaris read from his latest, When You Are Engulfed in Flames. Lucy lives with her husband, Lee, near Scranton, PA and is currently working on her Masters thesis - a feminist western eagerly enticipated by freaking everyone.
