Wedding Party

Aaron Potter

Best Man

Shannon Potter

Matron of Honor

Shannon and Gretchen met in college in 2014 at WSU Vancouver and braved painful high heels to continue a conversation that led to a firm friendship where we bonded over accounting classes and good beer. Shannon's catch-phrase for the first six months we were friends: "You really need to meet my brother!" And the rest is history, as here we are eight years later about to be sisters!

Adrienne Achenbach

Bridesmaid

Adrienne is Kevin's youngest sister and she and Gretchen hit it off over a shared enthusiasm for dry humor, prosecco, and a quest for awesome beauty products! Adrienne's pup Stella is also our Lily's best doggy friend and they love to run around together despite their 80-pound size difference.
