Kristin & Petar
Wedding Party
Andrew Brennick
Man of Honor
Andrew and I became friends during our junior year of high school. Our friendship began in the swim lanes at practice, talking, making jokes, and just passing the time. Our friendship continued to grow during our time at the University of Florida, where Andrew was my closest friend and confidant during the college years. We've been roommates for the last 3 years and there's never a dull moment when he's home. He is always there to listen, be a shoulder to cry on, and my biggest cheerleader. I'm so excited to have him as my Man of Honor!!
Branko Stefanović
Best Man
Branko is one of my dearest friends. Years ago, at the beginning of our friendship, when he moved from Botswana to Serbia, I realized that I gained older brother than I never had but wished for. Branko is one of the few people that has been through it all with me; through thick and thin, good and bad, he simply stuck by my side no matter what. Looking down the memory lane and all the things that we've experienced together, I couldn’t be happier to have him once again standing by my side on the day.
Rachel Stapleton
Maid of Honor
Rachel and I met on the first day of our jobs at Duke. She thought I looked mean, but once she got over that we became friends. She & I are the original co-founder of the "Carpool Crew." Our friendship truly blossomed on all our rides too and from work where we caught up on life, gossiped, and just kept each other sane. She's always there to listen to my problems and so supportive whenever I need it. She's the biggest hype girl and my go to karaoke partner. We can't wait for the wedding day to party it up, sing, and dance!
Radovan Lakić
Groomsman
Radovan, or simply Raša, is one of my very first rivals on the tennis court, almost two decades ago. Looking at it now, tennis didn't just introduce to me an amazing competitor, but also an amazing friend. Always ready to listen, sympathize, and provide some sort of solution is the man that I am honored to have in my corner through all these years. Even when I was down, his comedic character managed to lift me up. So be prepared for the jokes, because they are coming!
Izzi Faircloth
Bridesmaid
I met Izzi when I was in nursing school. For my final semester I was assigned to work with her at the PCICU at Duke. Izzi was so nice and welcoming, and we got along great. She made me feel so comfortable and welcome, that I decided to stay and work there. Our friendship continued in my first two years at Duke. Izzi became like a big sister to me (mostly because she likes to pick on me). But she has always been so supportive of me inside and outside of work. Izzi is so fun and carefree and truly an amazing friend. I am so happy to have her stand by my side on my wedding day!
Alex Gosman
Groomsman
Alex is one of my best friends from Elon, one of my partners in crime from college days. During my transfer from Auburn to Elon, I moved in with him and other two guys (Eric & Neal) without knowing them and turned out that I gained friends for life. His quirky humor and his friendly spirit won me over immediately. I can't be more honored to have by my side a person who's always willing to help and go out of his way for his friends. While being funny, he is also reasonable, sharp, and ready to give you brutal reality and keep you in check which I desperately needed sometime. So be ready for some funny, but very insightful convos.
Lauren DelVecchio
Bridesmaid
Lauren and I also met during our first year in Kappa and she is the other member of "The Trio." Our "big sisters" were roommates and we began to hang out frequently. From nights in midtown, to frozen yogurt dates, Lauren is always a friend I could talk to and trust her opinions and advice. Lauren lived down the hall from Caitlin and I in Kappa and my favorite memories are those we spent with nights on the couch or studying together. One of my favorite nights was when we shared a whole pizza while watching Katy Perry perform during the Super Bowl halftime show. Lauren is always there to talk and support me as a friend. I'm so happy to have The Trio reunited in Serbia!
Eric Bernstein
Groomsman
Eric is another essential part of my Elon friends that I am honored to call my family. Even though his laid back mentality sometimes drove us all crazy, his actions actually always reminded me that there is nothing more valuable than friends and moments spent together. His compassion and willingness to go to the end of the earth for the people that he cares about is something that I deeply admire. This man, whose actions speak louder than his words, is someone I am honored to call my friend and to have him stand by my side.
Allie Blum
Bridesmaid
I met Allie when I began working at Duke. She is such a great friend and always making people around her smile and laugh. We bonded working many night shifts together and love laughing about the height difference between us (don't let the picture fool you, its a whole foot difference). Not only is she a great friend but she makes the best cupcakes and the coolest flavors (#AllieKakes). I always have so much fun when Allie is around and am so happy to have her by my side on this special day.
Neal Port
Groomsman
Last but not the least, Neal is the final piece of my group. The best part of our small brotherhood is that each one of us brings something different to the table that other three are missing in some way. Neal is the guy who's gonna get things done. When everything else fails, his persistence in helping the ones he cares the most about will overcome any obstacle and he will not return with a "no" as an answer. His kindness will never allow him to disappoint people close to him, which makes him an incredible friend. A friend that I am honored to have in my wedding party.
