Wedding Party
Aspen Waddle
Bride
Ross McCabe
Groom
Bailey Waddle
Maid of Honor
Bailey is Aspen's younger sister. Bailey makes herself useful to Aspen by being her personal shopper/beauty advisor, and knowing what song Aspen is thinking of when she can only remember three words of the chorus. Bailey is a liberal studies major at San Diego State University, and hopes to stay in San Diego when she graduates in 2024.
Christopher McCabe
Best Man
Christopher is Ross' older brother. He is an Emergency Medicine physician based out of Phoenix, Arizona. Christopher and Ross spend most of their time together outdoors, drinking good beer and arguing over trivial things. Christopher's main hobby is exercising more than any human should, as he is an avid Ironman participant.
Kaitlyn Dewey
Bridesmaid
In 2017, five long days of a miserable sorority recruitment became worth it when Aspen found her little sis Kaitlyn. In 2022, their paths merged once again when Kaitlyn decided to join George Washington’s nursing program (imitation is the best form of flattery). Kaitlyn played a huge role in making sure Aspen got her nails done before the proposal, and was therefore promoted to bridesmaid.
Nick Fotos
Groomsman
Nick and Ross have been friends for over 10 years. After attending high school together, Ross and Nick remained in contact, reconnecting in San Diego and Los Angeles. Nick's hobbies include listening to Ross yell about video games, listening to Ross yell about politics, and listening to Ross yell about sports. Nick currently resides in Pleasanton, CA.
Jen McCabe
Bridesmaid
Jen is Ross and Aspen's sister-in-law. Whether she is intubating a sick 10-year-old, or catching Emma when she tries to dive off the play structure, Jen's speciality is saving kid's lives. Known for her untiring helpfulness, Jen can probably be found trying to aid our wedding planner.
Harit Patel
Groomsman
Harit attended UC San Diego with Ross, where they met through their fraternity, Tau Kappa Epsilon. Despite living across the country from one and other, Harit and Ross always manage to meet up a few times a year and attempt to relive their college days. The hang-overs are worse now. Harit lives in Washington D.C. and works as an engineer at Anduril.
Kelly McCabe
Bridesmaid
Kelly is Ross' sister and has known Aspen for over ten years. Kelly is an executive at SimpleLab. In her free time, she can be found drinking white claws at the dog park, watching her pup Domino bully other dogs.
Jacob Ibrahim
Groomsman
Jake and Ross attended USC Gould School of Law together, where they spent their time trying to do everything other than learn the law. Whether it was golfing, poker, or weekend trips to the mountains, they were united in their focus on procrastination. Jake works at Latham & Watkins in Los Angeles.
Felicity Sherfy
Flower Girl
Felicity is the beautiful daughter of Mark and Summer Sherfy (Aspen's cousin). Felicity has been anxiously awaiting this day for the past four years, every time she saw Aspen her first question was "Where is Ross?" and then "When are you getting married?". She is taking her flower girl duties very seriously and will definitely be showing little Emma the proper way to throw her flower petals.
Emma McCabe
Flower Girl
Emma is Ross' beautiful 2 year old niece. A bundle of energy, Emma can often be found offering her toys to the nearest dog or singing the theme song to Aristocats. Emma will be throwing flowers like the pro she is, and stealing the show.
Barrett Sherfy
Ring Bearer
This handsome man is the son of Summer (Aspen's cousin) and Mark Sherfy (brother to our flower girl Felicity), Barett is also taking his ring security duties very seriously. He will definitely be seen busting a move on the dance floor with his Uncle Brian.
Jesse Ferguson
Ring Bearer
Jesse is the son of Nik (Ross's cousin) and Susie Ferguson. We are so fortunate that they are traveling all the way from Australia for the special day! Jesse, Aspen and Ross bonded on Aspen and Ross's last trip to Australia over their mutual love of legos. He will be head of ring security as he and his colleagues walk down the aisle.
Mason Wood
Ring Bearer
The son of Aspen's cousin Paige, and her husband Jesse Wood. Mason will be visiting San Diego for the first time for the wedding - and is so excited to be responsible for helping to secure the rings down the aisle.
Taylor Ferguson
Ring Bearer
Taylor is the son of Nik (Ross's cousin), and Susie Ferguson, and Jesse's younger brother. Taylor was the best hype man when Aspen and Ross went skydiving for the first time in Australia. His mom is hoping his two front teeth come in before the wedding next year. We are on the fence - we like the rugged no teeth look.
Brian Waddle
Father of the Bride
Brian has been an instrumental role in the planning and execution of this wedding - mainly watching money disappear from his bank account. He will definitely be seen busting a move on the dance floor, holding a vodka on the rocks with no twist (grab him one, after all he is buying) and giving an awesome speech.
James McCabe
Father of the Groom
As the Father of the Groom, James has formally requested that we keep with South African tradition and play/perform the one and only "Chicken Dance" at the wedding. He will be leading, of course, and we apologize in advance.
Nichole Waddle
Mother of the Bride
Nichole’s crafting skills have been an integral part of Aspen and Ross’s relationship, from sporting event posters to graduation signs. Any handwriting you see at the wedding is almost assuredly Nichole’s.
Janette McCabe
Mother of the Groom
Janette and Ross spend most of their time together intellectually sparring over things that don’t matter, because who doesn't love a good argument? If you need to communicate with Janette, make sure you have a firm grasp on to vs. too. You’ve been warned.
