Wedding Party
Signe Nicklas
Maid of Honor
Signe is Alida’s sister, best friend, and longtime spokesperson. Alida has been lucky to live within a 10 mile radius of Signe through a couple cities and now gets to see her sweet nephew James all the time.
Garrett Kitchen
Best Man
Garrett and Conrad met as children as Trinidad locals and have been close friends ever since. Known for both his quick wit and his skills in the workshop, Garrett is the sharpest tool in the shed, which is saying something because he never lets his blades go dull.
Claire Branson
Officiant
Alida's former roommate and the biggest rugby playing softie you'll ever meet. She's a great travel buddy, a diehard Swiftie, and is still waiting for Conrad to challenge her to a 1:1 rugby match.
Cory Powell
Groomsman
Cory and Conrad have known eachother most of their lives, but became close friends during their time as teammates on the Arcata High football team. Cory is a creative powerhouse with skills in photography and music, and is also the one of kindest individuals you could ever meet.
Michael Martin-Kunkle
Groomsman
Another former teammate of Conrad's, Kunkle is a spontaneous adventurer who brings the fun everywhere he goes. A stellar athlete and an even better friend, Kunkle is undefeated against Conrad in Chess, but Conrad has not lost hope that the next strategy he learns will tip the scales in his favor.
Heather Jackson-Pease
Bridesmaid
Alida's friend who she's known since the third grade, who once convinced her that she was a vampire. She's easily one of the funniest people in the room at any given time, her knowledge of working in a lab as a biochemist always goes over Alida's head.
Will Sombric
Groomsman
Will is Signe's husband, Conrad's good friend, and is like a brother to Alida. He is man with a big heart and a love for outdoor excursions, and Conrad does his best to keep up with him whether they are hunting waves on the Lost Coast or bombing hills on Will's skateboard.
Benson Floyd
Bridesman
Benson is a longtime friend of Alida's and the pair were glued at the hip throughout middle and high school. They have too many inside jokes to count and he's one of the kindest people you'll ever meet!
Solomon Reinman
Groomsman
One of Conrad's lifelong and closest friends, Solomon is a renaissance man with a love for rock climbing and the outdoors. You could find them as kids playing "town tag", because Trinidad is such a small town that you could play hide-and-seek across it all and still find each other.
Kaitlin Barrett
Bridesmaid
Alida is incredibly grateful to have been introduced to Kaitlin through mutual friends, and the two hit it off instantly. She has an infectious laugh, is a fantastic photographer, and is sweet as can be.
Will Maas
Groomsman
Conrad and Will met as roommates during their time as students at UC Santa Cruz. A sharp and kind guy, Will is an avid runner who carries with him a contagious positive energy. He will be travelling all the way from Michigan to attend the wedding and Conrad is very excited to see him and introduce him to his friends and family.
Mikaela Stein
Bridesmaid
Mikaela and Alida met during their exchange year in Southern Germany. They've traveled all over together and Mikaela is a hell of a baker, dog whisperer, and an incredibly caring person.
Molly Crandell
Bridesmaid
Alida loves Molly so much so that during high school sleepovers she would wake up far too early to sort of help feed farm animals with her. Molly whips middle school kids into shape all while being a friend who loves to have fun given any situation.
Serena Archila
Bridesmaid
Alida and Serena first spent a semester seeing each other's photos on a Zoom screen. Once they met in person during Model UN they became fast friends! Serena is smart, caring, and hilarious.
