Andrew & Tara
Wedding Party
Allison Northey
Maid of Honor
Tara's original best friend, Allie is the younger and much cooler Northey daughter. Although it was probably annoying for Allie to grow up as "Tara's Sister," Tara would like to point out that people still ask if she is the gymnastics daughter. Tara loves no one more than her sissy and she is thankful to have Allie as her Maid of Honor!
Nathan Alley
Best Man
Andrew and Nate grew up playing sports together; however, they became best buds after becoming locker partners in the 7th grade. Andrew was the Best Man in Nate's wedding and is excited to have Nate as his Best Man this July!
Christine Hart
Bridesmaid
Chrissy is the big sister that Tara never had the best cousin she could ask for. Tara grew up mimicking everything Chrissy did (except for being good at sports) and Tara wants to thank Chrissy for giving her cornrows on the first day of 6th grade. Tara also loves being an aunt to Chrissy's wiener dog son Kevin.
Trevor Gill
Groomsman
Andrew and Trevor met playing little league baseball and are lifelong throwing partners, starting this tradition during their first practice together at 9 years old!
McKenzie Carlson
Bridesmaid
Kenzie and Tara met in the dorms their freshman year of college at Washington State University. Kenzie is one of Tara's most favorite people because of her love of sports, dogs, and a long phone call. Tara is thrilled that Kenzie is stuck with her forever due to their neighboring family cabins on Whidbey and their annual trip tradition.
Kyle McGuire
Groomsman
Andrew and Kyle have known each other almost their whole lives. Longtime soccer, basketball, and baseball teammates turned roommates and golfing buddies for 4 years! Andrew and Tara are also the favorite Uncle and Aunt of Kyle's puppy, Murphy.
Heidi Fielden
Bridesmaid
Heidi is one of Tara's oldest friends, spanning back to their middle school years. Everyone who knows Heidi, knows that she is hilarious, smart, and the kindest friend. Tara loves sharing the Teaching Career with Heidi and knows they have years of memories and trips ahead of them (hopefully without missed flights).
Tyler Thompson
Groomsman
Andrew and Tyler met in middle school playing sports and the bond was sealed immediately. Tyler is exactly one day older than Andrew, something he never fails to mention around birthday time.
Kaity Perez
Bridesmaid
The single best thing to happen to Tara at Washington State University, Kaity has been Tara's best friend since their sophomore year of college. Kaity is always down for a good time, will organize your life if necessary, and she can even handle your Tax Law in a pinch. Tara is so happy to have Kaity in her life!
AJ Baer
Groomsman
Andrew and AJ met senior year of high school when AJ moved to Seattle. Nowadays, together they form the most fearsome Fortnite duo in all of Xbox Live history.
Haley Oswold
Bridesmaid
Haley is Tara's friend from high school, college, living together post-college and now the two are only minutes away from each other in Queen Anne. Tara loves Haley's thoughtfulness, her giggle fits, and how much she loves the Cougs. Tara can't wait to have Haley with her on the big day!
John Roka
Groomsman
Andrew and John met playing on the same youth basketball team in the 3rd Grade. Since that fateful season there has never been a dull moment with these two; between competing in Tiger Woods Golf on Xbox, working random side jobs, being college roommates, golfing partners, and enjoying everything E-40 related, the memories have really piled up!
Alexa Padilla
Junior Bridesmaid
Tara met 5 year old Alexa when she was being interviewed to babysit for the Padilla Family. Little did they all know that Tara would become like their 5th child and the kids would become so special to Tara. The day would be incomplete without Alexa to share it with :)
Chloe Strandwold
Junior Bridesmaid
Chloe is Tara’s cousin on her mom’s side. Tara is so impressed by Chloe’s intelligence, hard work, and bright personality. Tara loves having Chloe in her life and she is honored to have Chloe as part of her day!
