Wedding Party

Meet the 15 people who mean the most to us! We're so honored to know each of them and even more honored that they'll stand with us on our wedding day.

Matthew Simoes

Groom


Annalise Hite

Bride

Timothy Streuer

Best Man

King of the Train-track Mansion. Timo is Matt's closest friend and best man. One of his favorite activities is wrenching on his 1987 Toyota MR2. He can fix anything he puts his mind to and is one of the smartest engineers you will ever meet. His hobbies range from helping manufacture and designing formula cars to salmon fishing. He is always down for anything and will have your back at any moment.


Sam Lewis

Matron of Honor

Daytons biggest fan. YoungLife's best area director. Always down for a 7/11 soadie run. No one else the bride would want to share a bunk bed with. Sam has been a rock in the brides life, championing her in every move, loving her from near & far.

Hayden Krause

Groomsman

The best salmon researcher north of the Klamath River. He can recite any Bad Bunny song lyric forward and back. Hayden is one of the most athletic people we know and is proficient in many outdoor activities. From spearfishing to certified rescue diving, he's done it all.


Lilia Chapman

Maid of Honor

Bride's best Oregon gal! Big hobby starter, turtle studier & Subaru driver. She's the best at sitting on the end of the bed to chat, gym buddy & the best person to sing (scream) early 2000's music. Her cat, Rue, and the bride do have a rocky relationship though.

Michael Case

Groomsman

Yipeee! A Maryland transplant who moved to Oregon. He is the meme master and rocks a snuggie better than most can. I've witnessed him rip a crab straight from the sea with his bare hands. In his past time he enjoys designing liquid rockets, hiking, and a cold Coors banquet. He is one of the funniest people I know, and I cant imagine a get together without him.


Cailin Cobb

Bridesmaid

Cousin of the bride. Friend of 26 years. The best to call & chat with on long car rides. Loves Biggie (English Bulldog) & the OCMD coast. Scorpio.

Sean Anderson

Groomsman

My go-to guy to get a Los Pericos burrito with. I can always count Sean in to go on a hike, with or without a trail. He can climb a face of granite like none-other and knows Yosemite like the back of his hand. He is the most outdoorsy person I know, and my favorite person to share a walk with in Big Basin.


Xiomara Stafford

Bridesmaid

BFF of the bride. The most compassionate & giving human being. Known for always having a dead phone & wearing blue crocs. Loves her two bunnies & is the best of friend to everyone.

David Simoes

Groomsman

Oldest brother of the groom. One of the best hustlers and businessmen out there. A diehard Toyota fan, I have fond memories of him working on his countless trucks and cars in my childhood driveway. His love for EDM, bass and 16" subs are some of my favorite traits that he has.


Cassandra Sunblade

Bridesmaid

Cassie Kay! The best homemaker & band manager around. The most intentional human the bride has ever met. Cass loves Hozier, socks and sandals, and her black-three-legged cat, Jane, who is sometimes insane.

Josh Simoes

Groomsman

Brother of the groom. The middle brother, he taught me how to grind Runescape and video games late into the night. He wouldn't miss a Warriors or Giants game if he doesn't have to. He knows and owns some of the best colognes you can buy, and loves collecting the most up to date basketball shoes.


Hawley Sharkey

Bridesmaid

The bride's best long distance best friend. Hawley & the bride have been friends for 15 years. Hawley has seen it ALL. She enjoys sleeping in, a wine night, and any kind of dog. Ask Hawley about the time we went to Oregon & how long it took us to get home!

Aidan Hite

Groomsman

Brother of the Bride. Very first friend. Sometimes greatest enemy. The one who knows news first. The guy who takes in the strays, loves his people fiercely & wears his heart on his sleeve. Neck & neck for Diet Coke's biggest fan. Worlds worst driver, worlds best built in best friend.


Nicole Anthony

Bridesmaid

Step-sister of the bride. The best person to laugh with. Huge bird fan and an even bigger fan of her husband, Dustin. Will 100% point finger guns at you.

Andy Hite

Groomsman

The bride's baby brother. Tallest of the group, youngest by 7 years. Loves the gym, chipotle, and blue blankets. The quietest of the three, wittier than most, also cleaner. Best hug giver, terrible texter. The final addition completing the Hite siblings.


David Durkin

Officiant
