Matron of Honor Toni
I was born August 4th, 1975 in Bellevue, Wa as Toni Hill. I grew up in Bellevue, where I met my "sister" Brenda at Sammamish High School while in an extra class called Reader's Theater the second half of our Freshmen year. Over the next few years we did many thing together and I learned to love my Short but Superior sister. I had just started dating a wonderful guy named Mark when I graduated from high school with Brenda in 1994. Three years later, Mark and I were wed on May 3rd, 1997, and Brenda was the Maid of Honor. We have two beautiful children. My son Matthew, (10-24-97) was truly blessed by the fact that Brenda happened to be visiting from college and got to witness his birth. He immediately won her heart and so she became his honorary "Aunt." Tiffani blessed us only 17 months later (4-9-99)and also stole hearts. I am extremely lucky to get to stay at home with them and do what I am finding to be God's highest calling, to be a professional Mother. We also are also homeschooling our kids, an adventure I never thought I would be doing, yet one I am excited to do. Maid of Honor Ann 
When I was in 7th. grade I met Brenda through a pen-pal service and little did they know that they were introducing me to my "psychic soul sista"! I remember being amazed from the very first letters I received as to how much we had in common. Even through the years and all the changes we've experienced I know that we will always have many shared interests... such as being feminist, feline-admiring "foodies" (obsessed with cooking, cookbooks, kitchen gadgets and always in search of the perfect coffee drink), and don't forget thrift shopping marathons, women's folk music, and having Libra husbands...the list goes on and on. Brenda is one of my oldest & dearest friends and I am so honored to be part of their wedding. My greatest wish of all, besides for their happiness always, is that someday we will live in the same state or at least within a days drive of each other! Bridesmaid Lara 
Do you know those people who you meet and instantly become friends with? Brenda is a friend like that to me. We met orientation week at Reed college, and freshman year we did all our favorite things together: cooked, danced, ate coffee icecream, dressed up ... Brenda was there in the spring of freshman year when I met a new and incredibly exciting guy, now my fiance! It isn't hard to tell that Brenda and I have a lot in common - we both studied Chinese in college and have kept studying in grad school. I'm working on a Chinese history Ph.D at Princeton right now. I'm very excited that Brenda and Justin are planning on teaching in Japan, since I taught there for two years after college, and loved it. Maybe I was Japanese in my past life. I think it is pretty special that with all of our travels, Brenda and I found this time to celebrate together at her wedding. Bridesmaid Andrea 
Brenda and I met in graduate school at the University of Colorado where I think we were both still feeling our way through the program, not sure how it would all turn out. We have gone through a lot of changes together - watching friends and relationships come and go, and I think we have proven that we are steadfast friends for sticking together through it all! We've had great fun at gourmet dinner parties, going out for drinks on Pearl Street, making sushi, etc etc. I am so glad that Brenda and Justin have found love together and am very honored to be part of the wedding.

COMING SOON! Groomsman Craig 
Justin and I met when I was 5 years old... or was I 4... or maybe 6? Come to think of it, I can't actually remember when I met him. I think I've known him practically my entire life, after he and my older brother became best friends in grade school. Over the years I've spent my fair share of time with Justin - watching TV after school in high school, hearing tales of Semester at Sea in college, and journeying to England and Wales just a few years ago - and through it all I've never seen him as happy as when he is with Brenda. I look forward to knowing both of them for the rest of my life, and only ask that they set up a guest bed for me so that I can visit them in Japan or wherever else their journeys take them.
