Wedding Party
Katie Inglis
Maid of Honor
Katie and Jaclyn go back just a few years, about a quarter century to be exact. Technically Katie is Jaclyn's "little sister" though she has out grown and out-matured Jaclyn in many ways.
David Pezley
Best Man
Starting in second grade, Dave and Aaron have been inseparable -- not surprisingly they both ended up in the same city - their favorite city: Cleveland. Ask Dave about some interesting Hilton Head trips with the Clarks and his undying belief that the Browns will indeed win the Super Bowl this year.
Emily Janata
Bridesmaid
Another kind of sister. Emily and Jaclyn first became friends on the softball field and then quickly bonded over the difficult maintenance of thick curly hair on top of other things. It wasn't a far stretch from that to nearly sisters with the friendship mostly paid for by Emily's dad's Friday Thanksgiving spread, including DELICIOUS sweet potato soup.
Nick Laskaris
Groomsman
Another member of the 2nd grade possy, Aaron and Nick have stayed close even with 370 miles between them. Ask Nick about that time he tackled Jaclyn in the snow and beware of beer taps and any games involving questions when Nick has a drink in hand.
Alyssa Cohen
Bridesmaid
Another kind of sister. Alyssa and Jaclyn met in Middle School and became closer in high school sharing lunch, French class and some commentary on said French teachers along with Emily and Megan. Without planning to follow each other on the next step, they then both ended up at University of Rochester.
Matt Vanderhoff
Groomsman
Another second grade buddy from Marion that has made his way up to Cleveland. Aaron and Matt continue to hold down the roles of smallest guys in the group but like Aaron, Matt's personality tends to make up for the lack of height. Ask Matt about the Pezley bachelor party -- actually avoid that topic at all cost...the wedding IS happening on a date that has 9,1 and 1....
Megan Findling
Bridesmaid
Another kind of sister. With multiple elementary schools, Shaker Heights Schools set up a pen pal program for young students across the district. That's how Jaclyn and Megan were first connected but it wasn't until a number of years after they actually met in person, realized their connection and became friends. The rest has been a pretty fun history.
R.E. Lewis
Groomsman
R.E. owns CTOWN, the gym where Aaron works and the minute Aaron was hired almost exactly 2 years ago, R.E. and Aaron became instant friends. Jaclyn is convinced they are actually the same exact person, just in different bodies. (Ask Jaclyn how she feels about 2 of Aaron...) Ask R.E. about his Tesla...and the rules of the road when it comes to red lights....
Heidi Clark
Bridesmaid
The second most important Clark sibling in the wedding party, Jaclyn is very impressed by Heidi's ability to put up with Aaron's antics for 3 decades. On top of looking forward to getting some more advice on that for the upcoming decades, Jaclyn is also excited to gain another sister in this process.
Dmitriy Levin
Groomsman
Dmitriy was the friend of one of Aaron's personal coaching clients when he recommended that Aaron attend a mobilty seminar at this place called CTOWN taught by this guy named R.E. Well the rest is history. Dmitriy and Aaron have stayed close as he continues to train at CTOWN. Ask Dmitriy about his views on "taking it easy" in workouts...
