Alexander & Satie
Wedding Party
Hunter Darby
Matron of Honor
Hunter is Satie's adventurous younger sister. You can routinely find her traveling to Africa and other exotic worldly locations for work! Hunter is one of Satie's biggest supporters in life and can always be counted on for a fun night out on the town. Satie is grateful Hunter and her husband, Marcus, only live a short 15 minutes away in Charlotte, N.C.
Trey Poole
Best Man
Alex and Trey met their Freshman year of college at UNC-Wilmington where they became instant friends. Throughout the years they became even closer as fraternity brothers and formed a lifelong bond. Trey and Alex enjoy discussing cars, playing video games, and on occasion going to UNC-Chapel Hill football games together.
Alaine Jacobs
Matron of Honor
Alaine is Satie's older (and probably wiser) sister. Alaine has been Satie's ally through life and is the friend everyone deserves. When she is not cheering on App. State, the Hurricanes, or nestled in a good book, Alaine hosts a podcast (@raisingdeafkids) from her home in Hillsborough, NC where she lives with her husband Michael, Satie's nephews Patrick & James (ring bearers), and Satie's niece Leda (flower girl).
Adam Harris
Groomsman
Adam is Alex's older half-brother and he recently relocated to Norway! Growing up Adam and Alex enjoyed building model planes and researching cars together. Alex and Satie hope to have a chance to visit Adam overseas sometime in the future!
Robert Byrd
Bridesman
Rob and Satie attended rival high schools in Raleigh, N.C. and had numerous mutual friends, but they didn't meet until their Freshman year at Wake Forest. From that day forward they were friends for life. Rob and his husband live a short 1.2 miles from Alex and Satie's house in the Plaza Midwood neighborhood of Charlotte, making it easy to meet up for neighborhood walks, cheering on the Deacons, a fancy dinner, or a cozy wine night sharing stories!
Andrew Harris
Groomsman
Andrew is Alex's younger brother and he loves to be outdoors. Growing up Alex and Andrew enjoyed fishing, hiking, and spending time together on their uncle's boat. Andrew lives a short distance from Charlotte in Mooresville, N.C., and he manages a cattle ranch full time.
Catherine Jewett
Bridesmaid
Catherine has been Satie's best friend, adopted sister, and partner-in-crime since they transferred into the same high school as Sophomores. They've shared too many adventures (and misadventures) to count over the last 20 years! Catherine runs a successful furniture, home goods, and vintage store (@winstonscollection) from Winston-Salem, N.C. where she lives with her husband, son, and daughter Eliza (one of Satie's goddaughters and flower girls in the wedding).
Matthew McDonough
Groomsman
Alex and Matt grew up together as neighbors in Davidson, N.C. Growing up they enjoyed riding bikes, exploring their neighborhood, and playing street hockey. Alex can always count on Matt for some video game or YouTube time, and they are always there for one another. Matt has a fluffy Siberian Husky, Kupo, that Alex has enjoyed taking a part in raising.
Katherine Pearlman
Bridesmaid
Satie and Katherine met at Wake Forest University when they both lived on the same Freshman hall and were later roommates for several years. Katherine and Satie shared many adventures together while studying abroad, living in D.C., and on the West Coast while Katherine lived in Seattle, where this photo was taken in nearby Willamette Valley. Katherine and her husband now live in Alexandria, Virginia with their daughter.
Spencer Mitchell
Groomsman
Spencer is Alex's co-worker and they became friends two years ago when they both started working at CIT - First Citizens Bank. Spencer and Alex enjoy riding motorcycles together, playing billiards, and meeting up around Charlotte to catch up over dinner. As friends and co-workers, Spencer and Alex are always bouncing ideas off each other and learning from one another.
Alexandra Turrentine
Bridesmaid
Satie and Alex met during their first year of law school at UNC-Chapel Hill, and they became fast friends! In the last decade there have been many nights spent together cheering on the Tar Heels, weekend trips in the Blue Ridge Mountains, and hours long phone conversations when Alex and her husband lived in Sydney, Australia (plus a visit from Satie in November 2022). Satie is thankful Alex is back stateside, living only an hour away in Elkin, NC with her husband and son.
Worth Williams
Groomsman
Alex and Worth met in fifth grade and were instant friends. They enjoy exploring the outdoors, camping, riding dirt bikes, and shooting together. They attended high school and middle school together and have supported one another throughout the years. Worth and his fiancé, Brita, live a short distance away in Durham, NC.

Anderson Chang
Officiant

Anderson is a veteran officiant, having been trusted by seven other couples with this honored title. Satie and Alex are lucky to be couple number eight! Though he now lives outside Boston, MA with his wife and daughter, Anderson frequently travels back to NC for any reason he can find (also for the airline miles).
