Wedding Party
Erika Gato
Maid of Honor
Sister of the bride Erika is Bianca’s younger sister, ride or die from the start, arguably Josh's favorite "Gato", and Maid of Honor. From cooking and composting to recycling and gardening, she is truly a salt of the earth woman. That's not to say she hasn't pissed Bianca off a time or two, they're sisters it comes with the territory. But if you ask B, being sisters with Erika is both a blessing and privilege that she doesn't take for granted. Erika is 100% that chick who will build you up, keep you honest, and is here to make the world a better place. "So tell me what you want What you really, really want I wanna, (ha) I wanna, (ha) I wanna, (ha) I wanna, (ha) I wanna really, really Really wanna zigazig ah" - Spice Girls
DJ Dunn
Best Man
Brother of the groom Josh was extremely honored to be DJ's best man for his wedding back in March of 2019. He couldn't wait to ask his only brother to return the favor. Josh and DJ have so many common interests including sports and their love for punk rock music. Josh couldn't imagine a better person to stand next to him as his best man. "When it's time to party, we will always party hard" - Andrew WK
Greer Procich
Bridesmaid
Close friend of the bride Bianca and Greer met on the first day of grad school orientation and It. Was. Electric. They shared a "choose your adventure", "take no prisoners", "strive to be kind", and "always choose to be happy" philosophy and became fast friends. Greer is not only someone you can always be yourself around, she is someone who challenges you to be better. Lucky for Bianca, Greer will be with her to share another first. "Lucky for you, that's what I like, that's what I like" - Bruno Mars
Ben Nagle
Groomsman
Best friend of the groom since high school Josh and Ben's friendship actually dates all the way back to their days on the middle school basketball courts, but their friendship reached new heights in high school and college. Ben has always been like another brother to Josh, and he's considered him his best friend for a long time. Some might even call what they’ve built, unthetic. To this day they’ve yet to lose a game of beer pong, cornhole, or flip cup as teammates. All that aside, it wouldn't be the same for Josh to get married without his brother-from-another-mother standing by his side. "Only the strong will continue. Do you have it in you? Come, we've got a journey to go" - Nas & Damian Marley
Jordan Bradley
Bridesmaid
Sister of the groom Jordan is arguably Bianca's favorite Dunn (honorable mention: Gram). She welcomed Bianca into the family with open arms, very fit very toned arms #FITinspo. Since then, they've bonded over their love of chips, fries, pasta, pizza, tacos, and of course roasting her brothers. That said, the family never actually eats (if you know, you know), but there are always plenty of laughs to go around.
Ian Bradley
Groomsman
Brother-in-law of the groom Ian is the brother Josh earned when he married Josh's sister, Jordan. They bonded over bourbon and a common interest in the finer things and the two haven't looked back since. We can't pick our family, or who marries into it for that matter, but Josh wouldn't run this one back for anything. He is lucky to have Ian to return the favor and stand by his side on this day. "Only the good die young" - Billy Joel
Jessica Harper
Bridesmaid
Close friend of the bride from college Of all the sororities on campus Bianca and Jess both decided there was only one for them. After a single meet and greet, weeks of rushing, and several mixers, it was official B and J were Phi Sigs, and salt and pepper was born. Jessica taught B about all things country music, county fairs, farm life, and big swigs. Since then, the pair have shared years of late night laughs and dancing along with just as many early mornings full of sweet tea and Starbucks runs. It's only natural that Jess would be by Bianca's side for her next wild adventure.
Lance Mathews
Groomsman
One of Josh's oldest Chicago friends Lance was one of Josh's first truly close friends he met after moving to Chicago. They became so relatively quickly and played softball, commiserated about their Bengals and Colts, and became pretty much inseparable during summers in the big city. Josh had no doubt Lance would need to be next to him on the big day. "Please allow me to introduce myself, I'm a man of wealth and Taste" -The Rolling Stones
Crystal Baker
Bridesmaid
Close friend of the bride and groom Crystal is a Iowa girl with a big city attitude. She blew Bianca away with her dance moves and wise-cracks. After their first encounter, they knew they wanted to lift their "no new friends clause" and worked hard to cool girl their way into each others lives. If you ask Bianca, it was one of the best decisions she's ever made. Crystal is as true-blue and weird as they come- A perfect fit for the big day! "I'm a, I'm a, I'm a cool girl, I'm a, I'm a cool girl Ice cold, I roll my eyes at you, boy" -Tove Lo
Cory Waite
Groomsman
Close friend of the groom and Live Music Buddy/former bandmate For Josh and Cory to become close it would have to take a strong bond. In a large group of friends that seems to keep growing, Josh and Cory found common ground in their love for music, particularly of the live variety. These two have seen countless (probably hundreds) of live shows together and they don't plan to stop any time soon. Josh needed his LMB by his side. "Take your shower and shine your shoes You got no time to lose You are young men, you must be living Go now, you are forgiven" -Dispatch
Heather Khanna
Bridesmaid
Close friend of the bride and groom Heather, known by many as Heath-RAWWWWW, hails from the great state of Ohio. Thank goodness she found her place in Chicago, this is where she would not only meet her hubby, but begin forging another life-long bond with Bianca. Together, they've founded a movie club, are in process of getting their podcast picked-up, have made some notable investments in TB Corp, and they show no signs of slowing down. With clear eyes, a full heart, and a regular dose of Heather you just can't lose. "Pizza in the morning, pizza in the evening, pizza at supper time, When pizza's on a bagel, you can eat pizza anytime" -Bagel Bites Jingler
Zane Roelen
Groomsman
Close friend of the groom and Live Music Buddy/former bandmate Much like Josh's bond with Cory, Zane also shared their love for live music. These two's bond grew relatively quickly and they shared many deep, late-night conversations about family, faith, and life over a glass (or two) of bourbon. Zane gave Josh the pleasure of serving as his Sergeant-at-Arms at Zane's wedding early in 2019. Josh couldn't wait to ask the same of Zane. "Oh dance in the dark of night, Sing to the mornin' light" -Led Zeppelin
Luz Sandoval
Mother of the Bride
Jennifer Dunn
Mother of the Groom
Josh and his mom have always had an extremely special bond. Some might even call him a momma's boy by many standards. He was extremely lucky to have been raised by a woman so strong, patient, and loving. Josh attributes his soft and caring side to the lifelong example she has always set for him. Jen can't wait to welcome Bianca into the Dunn family.
Alex Gato
Father of the Bride
Jeff Dunn
Father of the Groom
Josh and his dad have the most similarities between anyone else in the family. Many of what we consider to be Dunn traits had been passed down. Josh has always had a deep respect for his dad's example of faith and how to be a great husband and father. Bianca has developed a bond with Jeff as well and you can often find the two in the corner of the room cracking jokes at most family gatherings. “Wanna be young the rest of my life Never say no try anything twice 'Til the angels come and ask me to fly Gonna be eighteen 'til I die, eighteen 'til I die” -Bryan Adams
Anshu Khanna
Officiant
Close friend of the bride and groom and podcast co-host of Josh's Josh and Bianca have become extremely close with both Anshu and his wife Heather. Josh has been lucky to co-host numerous podcasts with Anshu and despite their rooting differences they always seem to find common ground. The four have shared so many laughs together and are excited for many more. Josh has always respected the purpose Anshu carries himself with and he and Bianca couldn't think of a better person to officiate this special day. “For all the places I have been, I’m no place without you.” -Andrew McMahon
