Over the past year, I’ve had the great honor of standing beside not one, not two, but THREE of my best friends as they tied the knot. In May 2011, I was a bridesmaid in Shaun and Rachel Grahe’s wedding, my bridesman and honor attendant. A few months later, I rode out Hurricane Irene as maid of honor for my
