Alexandria & Przemyslaw
Wedding Party
Stephanie Sebastian
Maid of Honor
Friend, colleague, and roommate for the last two years. Teaches fourth graders science and grammar, sings polyphonic Latin hymns during recess, and never cooks the same thing twice.
Karol Grzesiak
Best Man
Friend and big brother. Lives in Chicago with his wife, Megs, to whom he was married in December.
Alexandra Harrison
Bridesmaid
Friend and roommate at The King's College. Her favorite animal is the elephant, and she is, appropriately, engaged to a Republican. Her resume ranges from interning at What Not to Wear to working Big Law in D.C., so she'll be the one in four-inch heels.
Tomek Grzesiak
Best Man
Friend, little brother, and co-teacher at Founders Classical Academy. Lives in Dallas, TX with his wife, Bitsy, and his bilingual 2 year old baby. Expecting another near the wedding day.
Marietta Grumbine
Bridesmaid
Friend from Phoenix. Marietta has both German and Irish heritage, which is why she can, on the one hand, teach full time, get a counseling degree, host a Bible Study, and volunteer with a youth group, and, on the other hand, claim all the....virtues....for which the Irish are known.
Jordan Adams
Groomsman
Friend from Hillsdale and roommate of six years. Lives in St. Paul, MN with his wife of two years, Mary-Catherine and 1 baby.
Monika Grzesiak
Bridesmaid

Katy Doran
Bridesmaid
Friend from D.C. and Philadelphia. A Florida girl, Katy now lives in Princeton, NJ, where she works to promote family values at Canavox. Katy has the unique talent of being able to sleep at any conceivable location, make anyone feel like her friend, and hide sweatshirts under academic robes.
Gannon Hyland
Groomsman
Hillsdale friend and fraternity brother. Looks like an angry little Irishman. Is an angry little Irishman. Lives in Grand Rapids, MI where he teaches at a small classical Catholic school.
Krystina Skurk
Bridesmaid
Friend and roommate. A hot-air balloon and Jane Austen enthusiast, Krystina loves a variety of good things. If she is not frolicking through a field of sunflowers, having a snowball fight, or throwing a Narnia party for third-graders, she is probably writing academic essays on Russell Kirk or Winston Churchill. In any case, she's having a great time.
Robert Swantek
Groomsman
Friend from high school. Now a cop in Grand Rapids, MI where he works the night shift. For fun.
Sasha Brunson
Bridesmaid
Friend and sister. A good-humored, competitive girl with the reflexes of a cat, Sasha can beat just about anybody in a game of foosball or war. Together, we have traipsed all over Italy, endured countless 12-hour car rides, and played I don't know how many rounds of Russian hand games. Now, she lives in Columbia with her adorable son, Trystan.
Zack Miller
Groomsman
Friend from Hillsdale and fraternity brother. Hillsdale College President-in-Waiting. Recently married to Heather with whom he lives in Hillsdale.
Natalie Weisse

Friend from Phoenix, colleague and friend in Dallas. An extrovert with a ten o'clock bed time, Natalie teaches middle school science, talks physics just for fun, and reads fairy tales and Dostoevsky on a whim. She is flying to the wedding from Spain.
Andrew Kuenstle
Groomsman
Friend and former roommate in Dallas. Professional student seeking his Master's degree in Theology. Single and looking. Ladies....
