Chamberlain Standridge
Chamberlain and Anne's journey traces all the way back to their middle school days, a time when their friendship kindled over a simple act of generosity. On the back of a school bus, Chamberlain offered a share of her 3-Muskateers to Anne, sparking a connection that would endure the tests of time.
From impromptu VH1's top 20 countdown sessions in Anne's living room to navigating the precarious territory of almost getting arrested for a late-night school adventure, their bond only deepened. Even the mishaps, like temporarily misplacing a neighbor's dogs during a well-intentioned dog-sitting episode, became cherished chapters in their shared history.
Now, as Anne stands on the brink of a new chapter—her wedding day—Chamberlain will be right by her side. Anne couldn't fathom this significant moment without her true and steadfast friend. Gratitude fills Anne's heart as she reflects on the years of laughter, adventures, and unwavering support that Chamberlain has brought into her life. Their friendship has weathered the whims of time, emerging stronger and more enduring than ever, a testament to the depth of their connection. Salt & pepper forever <3
