Wedding Party
Sarah Wilson
Matron of Honor
Sarah is my older sister - but so many things beyond that. A best friend. A role model. A mentor. I literally cannot remember a time without this lovely person and cannot imagine a time without her - from us fighting over rooming together as kids to growing up and becoming closer friends, Sarah has been with me through it all. As the uber cool person that she is, she resides in Alaska with her husband and 3 kiddos (which I adore!) She runs her own essential oil business, homeschools the kids, and adventures and entrepreneurs with her husband, Ben. I'm so stoked she gets to stand by me as my Matron of Honor.
Alicia Fogle
Bridesmaid
Alicia is my sister-in-law of three years, a friend, and late night adventure partner - yes even if we call that making cookies, having picnics on the back porch, and randomly driving to middle of nowhere free way exits. She is beautiful, fun, a little crazy, and a joy to have at any family event and party. Alicia is a nurse who works in the emergency department - she loves fitness, do it yourself, researching, and exotic adventuring. She is a firm believer that sharks are misunderstood and sharing facts about them. I'm so glad she is a sister by marriage and one of my bridesmaids.
Hannah Lindblom
Bridesmaid
Hannah has been one of my very best friends for about five years - which is a scheme come true. Our parents went to college together and we knew each other existed, but when we were reintroduced my junior year of high school, I was immediately scheming about being her best friend. Hannah is fun to do anything and nothing with - from hammocking and hiking adventures to just taking a nap across the room from each other on off days. Once we decided to just walk down a trail for hours together to see if we would get tired of each other - we didn't. Hannah is a softball coach who lives just a hop, skip and a jump from me in Colorado Springs . She is a strong, encouraging, and loyal friend and I'm blessed to have her stand with me! (She didn't really have a choice).
Kallie Kaiser
Bridesmaid
Kallie showed up my junior year of high school and despite my shy, introvertedness, decided we would be friends and promptly made me her bus buddy to track meets. Sleep overs, "late night" talks, hiking, and hanging out commenced shortly after and Kallie has been a faithful friend who has been there through it all. Kallie has a Masters in Criminal Justice and is currently pursuing a career as a police officer. She loves dogs, talks constantly in movies, and will be an unshakable friend if you let her. I'm so glad that we've gone from bus buddies to here and that Kallie will stand with me on my wedding day!
Luke Schimpf
Groomsman
I’ve known Luke for literally all his life since he’s my younger, not so little brother. Sure we don’t always get along and he can get on my nerves but he is always willing to help and if I ever needed him to be there for me, he would.
Matt Fogle
Groomsman
My soon to be brother-in-law, Matt never fails to make Anna and I laugh. He is usually the life of the party and there have been countless times where we couldn’t stop laughing because of a funny story from work or just a random thought that he had. I’ve definitely gained both a brother and friend with him.
Kevin Graves
Groomsman
I don’t really know where this friendship started but one day it just did and from there, we have had some wild adventures from standing at the top of Pikes Peak to the hiking to bottom of the Grand Canyon. We’ve had elevated fun from the very beginning.
Dean Danis
Groomsman
Dean first appeared on the scene at high school youth group as Kevin’s friend from school. A three amigos mentality quickly formed between Dean, Kevin, and I. After we all graduated, I went off to Montana State University and Dean stayed in Colorado Springs at the University of Colorado. When I transferred back a year later, Dean and I resumed a close friendship and have always been in at least one class together at UCCS.
Carson Anderson
Groomsman
I met Carson on a mission trip with the UCCS Navigators my junior year of College and since then I have gone on several trips with him- from snowboarding excursions to trips to Moab. When my mom found out at the end of the mission trip that that was the first time I had met him she was very surprised and thought that we had known each other for way longer than just a week. Some people you just click with, and Carson is one of those.
Seth Cariaga
Groomsman
Seth and I had been friends in college but last summer we got to live together on a team at the Navigators’ Summer Training Program. We became a lot closer and have created many memories together. We both rely on each other very heavily to make it through engineering classes- or at least to have some distracted fun.
Julianna Wilson
Flower Girl
Jules is all things girl run together with a mini adrenaline junkie- and of course the beloved little niece of the bride. She loves unicorns, dressing up, being stylish, animals, being "boinged" in the air by her Uncle Andrew, and gymnastics. Jules smile, laughter, and personality are completely contagious and we can't wait for her little personality to be added to the wedding mix.
