Wedding Party

Kate Meiresonne

Maid of Honor

26 Photographer, Traveler Extraordinaire, Amazing Cook From the Bride: Kate was the only cousin I ever hated (and she hated me too), even after years of attending our annual Bull Shoals lake trip in Arkansas. We absolutely dreaded the 2013 trip because Kate and I were the only older cousins going. That year we became so so close; realizing that the only reason we hated one another was because we were so similar. Since then we have shared many memories, one of my favorite being Bull Shoals 2018 when we were again the only older cousins but with the addition of Sam. I couldn't imagine a more creative, beautiful or better friend to stand next to me on this important day!

Tynan Clark

Best Man

24 Redhead. Photographer. Medical genius. From the Groom. Tynan has been my best friend for as long as I can remember. We played multiple sports together and he was the one who got me to join the Air Force which ended up leading me to Siena. He is an avid outdoorsman who understands more about going on adventures than I ever could. Very excited he accepted my invitation to be my right hand on the best day.

Cayleigh Dunaway

Bridesmaid

22 Gamma Phi Beta sister, Former Roommate, Best Nurse in KC From the Bride: Cayleigh and I met freshman year of college but it took a few years for us to become practically inseparable. Sophomore year we were roommates - along with 4 other girls - but to-date we are fairly certain we were the only roommates to never have a fight with one another. Senior year was the most important year for our friendship, especially the last few months. Cayleigh is a forever friend who I can always look to for sound advice and long laughs.

Max Andrus

Groomsman

19 Brother. Future CFO of a Fortune 500 company. Lifelong achiever. From the Groom. My dearest Max has been the thorn in my side since the day he was born. From the moment he took his first breath of air we were forced to share everything. I got my revenge a few times (complete accidents) when we would walk back inside and approach mom with him bloody or bruised and a mile wide grin on my face. In all actuality, Max was the one who taught me patience, kindness and how to be a big brother. I couldn't ask for a better friend nor would I ever.

Jolee Clement

Bridesmaid

23 Sorority Sister, Personal Shoe Shopper, Hates Cows From the Bride: Jolee was my first and best friend in college! We were in the same orientation group and when she said that she hated cows I knew we wouldn't be friends since I absolutely adore them... well, two days later and we were sort of inseparable. We struggled through organic chemistry, genetics and physics of medicine together and I wouldn't have had it any other way! Undergrad would have been a really sucky time without Jolee and I'm glad I didn't have to experience it that way.

Clint Stine

Groomsman

Ciara Slay

Bridesmaid

18 Cousin, Shopping and Ghost Hunting Partner From the Bride: Ciara was always my younger cousin who looked up to me, until she was in about 6th grade when she passed me up in height. She's never let me forget that but I couldn't have a wedding without her style, knowledge of all things pop culture, and crazy antics.

Cody Vadnais

Groomsman

25 Synchronized Swimmer. Fine Wine Taster. Mathematician. From the Groom. Cody and myself have been making memories since freshman year of high school. We began devoloping our friendship through hockey and it always thrived from there (except for 6 straight months where he decided not to be my friend, but we worked that out.) He has driven to visit me where ever the Air Force took me, took care of me after a major surgery and fell in love with a Missouri 4th of July. If you ever have a question about sports or a math question, he is your guy.

Sophia Stahle

Bridesmaid

14 Oldest Collison-side Cousin, Brightest Girl & Best Athlete From the Bride: When I was 8 a little Sophia popped into the world and straight into my arms! Even once she learned how to walk I didn't want to put her down and I was so proud to be a big cousin. She taught me patience and gentleness in those first few years but even more since then. I may always be jealous of her athletic skills but hopefully during the wedding she can balance-out my clumsiness.

Tommy Stark

Groomsman

27 Freedom Maker. Chevy Lover. Party Starter. From the Groom. Tommy has been my right hand in mischief for 5 years in Missouri. We have deployed together, spent countless hours working on a car or truck while sipping the finest of beers and is always there when you need him. I even helped get him to the hospital when his son was born 2 weeks early (WILD RIDE.) There is no better friend than this man. Him and his family took me in as one of their own and have made my time in the Air Force the absolute best.

Marina Carter

Bridesmaid

25 Sam's Other Favorite Girl, Crazy Smart X-Ray Technologist From the Bride: Without the help of Marina I would have never met Sam! Not only did she help him with all things not-athletic during high school but she also helped him to stay grounded throughout his first few years in his military career. I'm so glad that such a sweet and smiling friend gets to be at my side during the wedding.

Al Anderson

Groomsman

26 Mind Reader. Beard Grower. Slightly Over-Educated. From the Groom. Big Al and I have been layin the smack down on engineering since the days of strapping skateboards to a couch and riding it full throttle down a hill, until the cops pulled us over for SPEEDING. Al is a one of a kind scholar who chooses logic and reason over emotions any day. He is the most level headed of any friend of mine and will always be up for a great conversation when it sparks a heated debate. He will someday be the president of a relatively mediocre junior college in Montana if he plays his cards right.

Lieu Nguyen

Bridesmaid

22 Sushi-loving girl and future physician From the bride: Lieu made my last semester of college one of the best ones! We had been in at least one class together every semester but until realizing we were the only seniors in our U.S. History class we hadn't been close friends. Lieu's boyfriend is also in the Air Force so we were able to connect with our love of medicine but also an understanding of what it's like to date someone in the military. She's one of the smartest people I know but also one of the most compassionate!

Ian D'Souza

Groomsman

19 Youtuber. Dinosaur Bone Digger. Long Sock Wearer. From the Groom. Ian is a great addition to the Groomsman group. He's rounding off the list with all the skills and knowledge to keep the rest of us safe and sane. This strapping young gent is Siena's baby brother. He enjoys long walks to his car to go to school. Really digs paleontology, get it? And has a seriously bright future ahead of him when it comes to knowing completely random facts. Which is a pretty solid skill!
