Adrienne & Dorin
Wedding Party
Felicia Dimitrov
Maid of Honor
Felicia is Adrienne's younger sister and Maid of Honor. Dorin, Adrienne, and Felicia played on a coed softball team together, so she knew Dorin before most people in Adrienne's life. She knew before most that Adrienne had found the one. Adrienne has always valued her sister's advice, so her approval was crucial. Dorin still says she was the one he had to win over first in order seal the deal. Felicia is driven, determined, and always speaks her mind - so of course, we are looking forward to her speech! Thankfully, she is getting married to her long time love, Alex in January, so she can't embarrass Adrienne too much!
Zach Ehret
Best Man
Zach is Dorin's cousin from the Killian family. As members of the very close Killian tribe, Zach and Dorin grew up spending countless hours together. As kids, the two were inseparable. Whether it was playing sports, listening to music, or playing cards, the two have built a bond that has only continued to grow with time. Zach was the first person to know about Adrienne. While Zach has much to share about Dorin, thankfully up to this moment he has spared Dorin much of the embarrassment knowing how good of a catch Adrienne is for Dorin.
Sarah Deaton
Matron of Honor
Sarah is Adrienne's older sister and role model. When Adrienne first spoke to Sarah about Dorin, she knew he was someone special. She has always been a supportive sister and encouraged Adrienne to follow her heart. Adrienne has always looked up to Sarah's passion towards family, healthy living, and positive attitude towards life. Sarah is an incredible mother to junior bridesmaid, Audrey and our nephew Maximus and a wonderful wife to Dan.
Tim Jackson
Man of Honor
Tim is Dorin's younger brother and Real Estate Agent. As kids, Dorin grew up teaching Tim everything he knows and it is clear Dorin's mentorship has truly paid off. Tim is married to Liz Jackson and is a great Dad to two wonderful children (Bode and Josie). Dorin is thankful to call Tim his brother and has leaned on him for guidance and help over the years. Much like Zach, Tim also found out about Adrienne early. Upon realizing she was the former Strongsville softball coach, he couldn't believe Dorin's luck. Again, he has thankfully spared Dorin of many embarrassing stories in the hopes of keeping Adrienne around.
Elizabeth Jackson
Bridesmaid
Liz is married to Dorin's brother Tim and is the mother of our ring bearer, Bode James Jackson and our new niece, Josie Loretta Jackson. Liz is one of the kindest people you will meet, loves dogs of all kinds (please share pictures), and is the country music queen! Liz has always been worried about Dorin and his love life. However, upon hearing the news of a possible love interest in Adrienne, Liz went out of her way to make sure Adrienne felt welcomed in the family. It was with Liz's help, that Dorin was able to seal the deal!
Joe Wathey
Groomsman
Joe is one of Dorin's closet childhood friends. Joe is beloved by everyone who meets him. Dorin spent much of his high school years hanging out at the Wathey's playing video games, swimming, and enjoying the fire pit. Joe invited Dorin on many trips to Myrtle Beach with the Wathey family. Joe and his family have become a second family for Dorin. Joe is married to Lauren and have a beautiful daughter named Chloe. As the encouraging friend, Joe made sure Dorin went after the girl of his dreams. It was during a late afternoon dinner at Buffalo Wild Wings where Joe helped Dorin hatch the idea for what would be the eventual proposal.
Allison Bury
Bridesmaid
Ali is Adrienne's longest and dearest friend. What started as tee-ball teammates turned into years of wonderful memories, pushing each other to grow, and always being a shoulder for each other. Ali is married to her high school sweetheart, Ben, who was kind enough to play Three's Company with Adrienne and Ali for years. Together, they have a beautiful baby girl, Ava, and two fur babies, Mylo and Fiona.
Dave Salisbury
Groomsman
Dave Salisbury is Dorin's "other Brother." Growing up, Dave was always around the Jackson house. Dorin considers Dave to be one of the funniest people he knows. Dave is married to Elyse and has two beautiful daughters (Clare and Eloise) with a third arriving shortly. Dorin is thankful for online gaming as playing Madden online has allowed Dorin to maintain a close bond with Dave despite the distance.
Natalia Roca
Bridesmaid
Natalia and Adrienne met at Miami University and became quick friends. There's something special about the people who help us survive our college years because they help us become who we are today and they love us through the process. Natalia was able to meet Dorin on the infamous two week road trip the couple took early in their relationship. In Austin, she taught us about Chicken-Shit Bingo, real country line dancing, and how to "Keep Austin Weird." Her laughter is infectious and when Brittney music comes on, you'll see her rocking the dance floor!
Nate Jones
Groomsman
Nate is one of Dorin's closest friends from childhood. Dorin first met Nate while attending St. Angela Merici school in Kindergarten. Nate was accepted into the U.S. Naval Academy and upon graduation became a lieutenant in the Marines. Despite the distance, Dorin has been lucky to maintain his relationship with Nate and his family. It was during visits to see Nate that Dorin was able to see many different places throughout the United States. Nate currently is living in New York City and enjoying the life of the big city!
Megan Bricker
Bridesmaid
Megan and Adrienne met teaching together and became quick friends. They shared a love of softball and all things Cleveland/Ohio, although we will forgive her for her allegiance to the team up north. They spent years coaching together and Megan always looked out for Adrienne's love life. Megan and her fiancée Alex like to claim responsibility for Dorin and Adrienne FINALLY getting together. Along with Felicia, they played on our softball team and knew from the beginning that at some point, we would figure it out. Megan (and Alex) watched our relationship grow from the beginning and she knew that we were meant to be!
Ricky Dimitrov
Groomsman
Ricky is Adrienne's older brother and one of the easiest people to get along with. Most of their childhood, Adrienne tried to tag along with her brother and his friends. At one point, she even pretended to enjoy his juggling club and the school marching band so she could hang out with them. Ricky is musically one of the most talented people you'll ever meet -- give him an instrument and he will figure out how to make a melody. His biggest fan, his wife Sarah, will jam out to his music with you!
Annie Jackson
Bridesmaid
Annie is everyone's favorite Jackson! While Dorin and Tim reject this notion, Annie's life demonstrates her sizable favoritism gap. A few examples are as follows: 1) Annie attended Hawken School while her brothers went to public school for high school, 2) Annie always drove the "new car" as compared to her brothers who drove a mini-van without a driver-side handle, 3) Annie has been allowed to go on two Spring Break (in two years) trips while her brothers were allowed zero trips & put to work during their Spring Breaks. Annie is currently a member of the Cleveland State University women's soccer team and is studying to become a Physical Therapist. She is affectionately known as "Annie the Nanny."
Joey Dimitrov
Groomsman
As a common theme with the youngest child, Joey is the favorite of the Dimitrov family. Growing up, Joey got away with everything with his signature Bieber hair flip and charming style. Thankfully the long hair was just a phase, so he no longer looks like Adrienne's twin sister. Joey is a loving husband to Selina and wonderful father of two rambunctious boys, Marino and Leo. We have been lucky to have Joey home from military duty for the last two years while he has worked towards his bachelor's degree at the University of Akron.
