Sara is the very best friend of the bride. Sara and Halimah met at work at M&T Bank. Halimah was wearing a flower in her hair, Sara thought she was extra, and she was right. It's now 19 years later and they don't know what they'd do without each other.

She is a wonderful person, mom, human, and friend and I am blessed to have her in my life. Jack is a man of few words. I think in the last four years, we have said ten of them to each other. Even so, I know that he is a wonderful dad to his kids and a great match for my friend. Best of luck to you both <3
