Erin & Ian
Wedding Party
Jaclyn Royster
Matron of Honor
Erin and Jaclyn met at Penn State and became close when they both moved to the DC/VA area after graduation. Jaclyn's home became Erin's "suburban escape" filled with puppy cuddles and winery trips!
Carolyn Wallace
Maid of Honor
Erin and Carolyn share an "Italian Love Story" meeting on a study abroad trip to Todi, Italy! The shennanigans continued when they returned to Penn State and they've been tailgaiting it up ever since.
Quinn Shollenberger
Bridesmaid
Quinn is Ian's younger sister and met Erin when, shortly after they met, Ian said "My sister is coming home from Germany this weekend and wont be back for awhile so if you see this going somehwere now is the time to meet my family." Luckily, it was a great weekend and the rest is history!
Brittany Tomaso
Bridesmaid
Erin and Brittany grew up together in Hershey and became close when they lived a 2 minute walk from each other at Penn State! Since then there has been no shortage of jojo's pizza, couch dates and spa days.
Maggie Lavelle
Bridesmaid
Erin and Maggie also grew up together in Hershey and became close at Penn State! Maggie served as Erin's run coach for a short bit hearing plenty of explatives along a half marathon course in New Orleans... since then their hang outs have been much more low key.
Natalie Hill
Bridesmaid
Erin and Natalie worked at Wellness Corporate Solutions in Bethesda and bonded over happy hours, irish exiting and fitness! They became even closer when they both moved to Philadelphia in 2018 sharing weekly SweetGreen dates exploring a new city together.
Elsie Ebeling
Bridesmaid
Erin and Elsie met in Arlington, VA despite growing up 20 minutes apart, both attending Penn State and sharing many mutual friends. Their friendship blossomed with many a wine night, sushi date or tailgate! Elsie has had a front row seat to Erin’s dating sagas and it’s safe to say without her and Brandon we wouldn’t be celebrating on November 13th!
Dylan Shollenberger
Best Man
Dylan is Ian's older brother and oldest friend. Growing up with Dylan always pushed Ian to be better in every way and their fiery competitive nature hasn't changed much over the years. They grew much closer over the past few years spending time together golfing and in Florida where Dylan currently resides. Don't be surpised if Dylan tries to play his favorite game at the wedding, guess who is older.
Chris Baker
Groomsman
Chris is the oldest of the Baker children and most certainly the trend setter. Chris grew up playing sports but always had an artistic side. Now, Chris is a copywriter who enjoys photography, videography, and most importantly, golf. In the past three years Chris, Ian, and younger brother Joe have bonded over many rounds of golf and the occasionally ribbing from Pop-pop Baker about not shooting a certain score.
Joesph Baker
Groomsman
Joseph (as Erin affectionately refers to him) is the youngest of the Baker siblings. Also a talented athlete and videographer, Joe and Ian have grown close over the past few years with golf, being dog dad’s, and as the subjects of Erin’s loving scrutiny.
Michael Headly
Groomsman
Mike and Ian met freshmen year of college at the University of Pittsburgh. Both were fortunate enough to be placed on the 4th floor where most of their college friendships started. They lived together Junior and Senior year at 8 Welsford with a group of raucous individuals who are sure to be seen cutting up a rug this coming November. Mike currently resides just south of Charlotte with his Fiancé Jenna and two dogs.
Jared Palubinski
Groomsman
Jared and Ian have been friends for close to thirty years. They were introduced before they could remember, Jared’s parents Tom and Lori are family friends of the Shollenberger’s and would do annual family vacations together. Growing up, Ian and Jared turned everything into a competition, from golf, to backyard baseball, to all day drive way basketball tournaments. Jared’s been there thru thick and thin with Ian.
Michael Jurgielewicz
Groomsman
Michael and Ian first met at youth soccer and grew up going to school together. In high school they grew close, with Michael’s indescribable charm eventually wearing down Ian. He’s always been impressed with Michael’s ability to just speak the truth, no matter how blunt (which might have rubbed off a little bit on Ian). Always smiling, laughing, and throwing sarcasm around like rose petals at a wedding, these two have had some incredible times over the years.
Brandon Ebeling
Groomsman
Brandon and Ian first met at Saint Michael’s Church when they were four or five and the friendship was cemented when Ian found out Brandon had a “jumping table” (trampoline). Ian and Brandon grew up playing basketball, soccer and baseball together, and there was a short period where their bowl cuts made them almost indistinguishable. These two have more stories than can be listed on this short page, although some of them shouldn’t be!
