Martina & Brantley
Wedding Party
Kendall Horvath
Maid of Honor
I met Kendall in college and quickly realized she's the sweetest person alive. She's the best travel partner, always ready for the next adventure and trying unique foods, even when it's questionable kidneys in a fancy Parisian restaurant. An incredibly loyal friend that has always had my back, she's half of my heart. 1/3 of the tripod.
Justin Bar
Best Man
Justin is the kind of friend who says yes to driving 8 hours to see Dave Grohl and Jim James play a show in the middle of a blizzard. We've been classmates, roommates, arm chair therapists and everything in-between. Justin has a passion for language, and may love Italy even more than Martina.
Maria Rizzo
Matron of Honor
I met Maria at my birth. She's an amazing sister, a phenomenal mom, and an accomplished artist and teacher. Because of her beautiful paintings, our apartment looks like an art gallery, which is a goal of mine. While we have opposite personalities, she has been the best big sister; always ready to lookout for me and help me stand up for myself. I will always treasure our summers in Sicily, the endless days spent at the beach, the plays we put together for our families, and the pounds of figs we ate from our tree.
James Hester
Man of Honor
It's hard to call him lil bro when he's so much taller than me, but I couldn't be more proud of the man he's become. Now he's all grown up and recently moved all the way to Salt Lake City, where I know he'll continue to thrive (and maybe get big on Twitch).
Jessica Varona-Edwin
Bridesmaid
The other 1/3 of the tripod. She has been to 22 countries so far, so she gives the best travel recommendations. We share similarities in our lives that made our friendship even stronger, we especially love shit-talking about the more non-sensical aspects of American culture. She is someone that I can always rely on when I need advice or a laugh. An incredible friend, and a mesmerizing dancer with the best dimples in the game.
Justin Sherman
Groomsman
What started in Mr. Alexander's 4th grade class is still going strong today. I've never met a person who thinks like me more or who has made me laugh as hard as him. Hanging in Sherman's basement with a box of cheez-its and Moesha on is one of my happy places.
Kristen Donnelly
Bridesmaid
Whether it’s getting stuck in Zach's deathly elevator moments after midnight on New Year's Eve or celebrating her birthday in cat heaven at the Georgetown cat cafe', Kizzy has been a constant in my life ever since college and has been a true friend in so many of life’s big moments. She was the first person that made me feel like DC could be home. She’s witty, will win at any board games you throw her way, and is always someone I could talk to when things get hard. I'm thankful every day that she brought her cat/son in our lives: Marlo.
Dan Novak
Groomsman
His name is Dan, but he'll always be Novak to me. Novak and I started playing baseball together at age 9. Imagine Brian Roberts mixed with Nick Markakis. Now we're old enough to be in the same book club and have game nights, which i'm told almost never usually features your childhood team's starting center fielder.
Jordan Wolfe
Bridesmaid
You will not find a bigger horror movie fan than Jordan. He has a love for everything spooky and will always try to drag you on a midnight stroll in the middle of Rock Creek Park for funsies. THE after-life of the party, if you ever got the chance to see Jordan sing It's Raining Men by the Weather Girls, you witnessed a SHOW. A true ghoul who gives the best hugs.
Jeremy Stoff
Groomsman
If you were to come up to me and tell me you didn't like Jeremy I wouldn't believe you, and I'd kindly ask you to leave. Jeremy is one of the most big-hearted and caring people I know, and it's so amazing to see him flourish as a dad with his beautiful family.
Lauren Proctor
Bridesmaid
Lauren lights up every room she walks in! While we were in the same italian class in high school (don't ask), we didn't become friends until we met again at SU and the rest was history. Our college days were peppered with lots of coffee dates at People's Place cafe, parties in our South Campus apartment, and watching the vampire diaries. She's the jelly to my peanut butter.
Justin Hall
Groomsman
My true day 1 homie. My cousin and I grew up 5 houses down the street from each other as kids, and he truly feels like another brother to me. Nobody else I'd rather grill with and watch the Commanders lose.
Sam Littman
Groomsman
If you consider yourself a movie buff, talk to Sam and prepare to be humbled. His passion is contagious, and we both share a fierce sense of loyalty that's kept us friends since 3rd grade. He cares so deeply about his friends, and is always an incredible hype man.
