Wedding Party
Annika Thomas
Maid of Honor
Originally, Annika was one of Eriksen's closest family friends growing up. However, on the day that Eriksen introduced Alexa to her... let's just say sparks flew. Annika has been there since day one, both as a loyal best friend and safe space for us both. We love you Anni!
Abbye Koenig
Bridesmaid
Abbye is Alexa's twin sister. Abbye is a driven, fierce, and incredibly supportive individual whom we have both grown up with–Alexa since the womb and Eriksen since freshman year of high school. We couldn't imagine not having her as a part of our bridal party. We love you, Abbye!
Taylor Koenig
Bridesmaid
Taylor is Alexa's older sister and one of her greatest role models. Alexa has looked up to her sister since birth and has had the honor of experiencing her older sister's love, support, and guidance. Eriksen has been able to find a sister in Taylor as well, and we cannot imagine doing this without her. We love you, Taylor!
Caitlin Shea
Bridesmaid
Cait is Eriksen's sister-in-law, as well as one of Alexa's best friends. Cait is the human representation of sunshine and has supported us through it all. She truly is an incredibly special human to us and we are so glad she'll be celebrating with us. We love you, Cait!
Grace Zachau
Bridesmaid
Although Eriksen has been family friends with Grace since childhood, Grace and Alexa have been friends since high school where they became CNAs with one another and kickstarted their careers. Grace has always pulled Alexa out of her comfort zone, for the better, and has supported her from a far ever since. We cannot wait for Grace to be back in Maine for our wedding. We love you!
Maddie Chase
Bridesmaid
Maddie and Alexa met in Physician Assistant school, which was very well some of the hardest years of both of their lives. Maddie kept Alexa sane, as hard as it was, during this time and they quickly became best friends. There's no doubt Alexa wouldn't have made it through that time without her and she is forever grateful to her. We love you, Maddie!
Ashley Nault
Bridesmaid
Alexa met Ashley during her freshman year of college, as their dorm rooms were right across the hall from one another. Once they built up the nerve to speak to each other, it was obvious that their friendship was special and you practically couldn't find Alexa without her for the rest of their time in school. Ashley is a ball of energy and up for anything. We cannot wait to celebrate with her. We love you, Ashley!
Sarah Padellaro
Bridesmaid
Sarah and Alexa met on the field hockey field during their freshman year of college and quickly became best friends. Although Alexa's field hockey career may have ended, their friendship only got stronger and Alexa cannot imagine her life without her. Thank you for celebrating with us, Sarah! We love you!
Jenna Deschamps
Bridesmaid
Jenna and Alexa were freshman-year college roommates and have remained best friends ever since. Jenna has been there through the ups and downs and remains a very important person in Alexa's life. We love you, Jenna!
Hamilton Gray
Best Man
Hamilton is Eriksen's best man. They met in college and quickly became best friends when they realized they would rather go fishing than study for the upcoming test. Hamilton is loving, kind, and adventurous and we are so incredibly lucky to have him on our wedding day. We love you, Hammy!
Caiden Shea
Groomsman
Caiden is Eriksen's big brother. He has, and continues to be, a role model for Eriksen. They grew up exploring and adventuring together, and have only grown closer as the years pass. Caiden is an intelligent, selfless, family-oriented, and loving individual who Eriksen and Alexa are honored to call their brother. Caiden, we love you!!
Keigan Shea
Groomsman
Keigan is Eriksen's younger brother. Since they were young, Keigan has continued to bring out the goofy, playful side of Eriksen–from playing 1 v 1 basketball until it's dark out, to standing in the stands cheering his heart out, Keigan has remained an incredible support for his brother. And with rap battles in the kitchen and never-ending ping-pong competitions, Alexa and Keigan act like siblings already. We love you Keigs!
Noah Koenig
Groomsman
Noah is Alexa's big brother. Although Noah has always been a loving, protective big brother to her sister, since meeting Eriksen it was clear they would become good friends themselves in no time. Noah is a "big teddy bear", as Alexa likes to call it–a kind, loving, and loyal individual who never stops protecting those he loves. Eriksen has found another brother in Noah, and we love him so much!
Sam Larochelle
Groomsman
For those who haven't met Sammy, you are truly missing out. He is a goofy, kind-hearted, easy-going individual who Eriksen and Alexa are lucky to call one of their best friends. Sam is a part of the best double date team in history, as he is Annika's boyfriend. Between Sam and Annika, and Eriksen and Alexa, there is endless opportunity for memory-making when they are together. Sammy, we love you and can't wait to celebrate with you!
Caleb Arsenault
Groomsman
Caleb has been Eriksen's friend since they were little kids. From soccer games to fishing adventures they always knew how to have fun. Caleb is a kind and caring individual who would do anything for you. He is one that you can always count on and we are so excited to have him be a part of our special day.
Cody York
Groomsman
Cody is a selfless person who will do anything and everything for you. He is family oriented individual which is a trait that we all admire. Cody is one of those people that would give you the shirt off his back without hesitation and then he would probably forget he even gave it to you. He is someone that I have always looked up to and we are very excited to have him a part of our wedding.
Nate Burke
Groomsman
Nate is one of the most positive people I have ever met. Through thick and thin he continues to live life with a smile on his face. They always say surround yourself with good people and he is a perfect example of that. While he is the Dad of the group, he fits right in with his childish ways. Nate is a kind and compassionate individual who just wants the best for everyone he is around. We are so excited to have him in our wedding and can't wait to celebrate!
Lori Koenig
Mother of the Bride
Lori is Alexa's mom and has been an integral part of our lives, as well as this wedding day. Although she doesn't hear it nearly enough, Alexa and Eriksen want to thank her for everything she has done for us. She is endlessly supportive and selfless and we love her so much. Thank you for everything, Mom!
Todd Koenig
Father of the Bride
Todd is Alexa's dad and has faithfully supported us through it all. There is nothing he won't do to help those he loves and that's only become more evident while planning for our wedding. We love you so much, Dad. Thank you for everything.

Lynn is Eriksen's mother and has been an instrumental part of our lives and this wedding process. Lynn goes above and beyond for her loved ones and her support has meant the absolute world to us. We are endlessly thankful for her. We love you!

Scott is Eriksen's father and one of our biggest supporters. Scott is always up for adventure and memory-making and supports us to do just the same in our relationship. We are so thankful for everything he has done and continues to do for us. We love you!
