Wedding Party
Ryan Millman
Best Man
Ryan is Chris' older brother and biggest role model. Their shared life experiences are endless, and they always bring the best out of each other. Without Ryan, Chris wouldn't be here, as their parents wouldn't have wanted to try again to see if they could create a child they actually like to have around.
Courtney Kimball
Matron of Honor
Courtney has been Sarah's best friend since middle school. Courtney and Sarah were introduced by a mutual friend who transferred from Courtney's school to Sarah's. Shortly after this meeting, Courtney joined Sarah on her birthday trip to Frankenmuth where they took a photo with the Zehnder's mascot and the rest is (20 years!) history!
Kyle Carosotto
Groomsman
Kyle and Chris have been close friends from the moment Kyle moved to Chris' hometown in middle school (from New York? honestly, who knows). Through the awkward teenage years, crashing each other's family events/trips, and years as neighbors living in South Boston, they've become like brothers.
Kelly Ording
Bridesmaid
Sarah and Kelly met working at a fake designer purse kiosk at Westland Mall. Sarah eventually went on to join the same sorority as Kelly at Central Michigan University where they both attended college. Kelly has been a constant presence in Sarah's life ever since!
Ethan Zink
Groomsman
Chris was the first person Ethan met when he moved to RI in middle school, and destiny has kept them close friends ever since. Ethan's never-ending praises of Ann Arbor, where he grew up as a child, helped Chris feel confident in moving to the college town for residency. Now, Chris' Michigan experience has been enhanced greatly by Ethan moving back to the area himself.
Jenna Williams
Bridesmaid
Jenna and Sarah met when Jenna became an intern in cardiac rehab and stress testing at Michigan Medicine. Jenna was Sarah's mentee and they became fast friends. Jenna and Sarah have a truly special friendship that is a rare find in your late twenties. Sarah and Jenna now work together in a different unit at Michigan Medicine and have been working together for 4 years.
Andy Estrada
Groomsman
Andy and Chris were immediately tied at the hip in college as the two incoming XC/track recruits from RI, and they have remained so (from afar) since. Their shared interest in obscure references to early 2000s hip-hop/R&B, average professional athletes, and people they both kind-of-know from RI have kept them laughing for years.
Lauren Carosotto
Bridesmaid
Lauren and Sarah met when Chris and Sarah began dating. Lauren is married to Kyle, who is Chris' childhood best friend. Once Sarah and Lauren met, it felt like they were the ones who were childhood friends and have been close friends ever since!
Josh Bartosik
Groomsman
Josh is Sarah's older brother and met Chris early into his relationship with her. Josh has been an incredibly gracious and welcoming member of the family for Chris, and questionably over-trusting of Chris' ability to toss his daughters into the air and catch them safely.
Meagan Bartosik
Bridesmaid
Meagan is Sarah's sister-in-law, married to her brother, Josh. Meagan and Sarah have grown close over the years and continue to be both friends and family.
