Our People
Rachel Thompson
Maid of Honor
Favorite memory: Finding two $50 bills on the ground in NYC and deciding it was fate to go to a fancy rooftop bar.
Jordan Thiem
Best Man
Favorite memory: Driving from LA to Portland along the Pacific Highway in two days, because we were too stupid to research that it should be done in four days.
Jessica Lund
Bridesmaid
Favorite memory: Geeking out together over the Lady Boys in Koh Lanta.
Wes Ellis
Groomsman
Favorite memory: Picking a random summer afternoon to drive into the Texas Hill Country and just shoot some film. Also being niche Internet micro celebrities in 2018.

Favorite memory: Spending almost every New Year's Eve together since we met. Our tradition!
Brad Fikac
Groomsman
Favorite memory: Getting to know him for the first time in Iceland over several Brad-a-ritas while Jordan went to pick his girlfriend Fay up at the airport. Also when we met Bushwick Bill outside Conway's in New Braunfels. RIP a legend.
Leigh Mingle
Bridesmaid
Favorite memory: Rafting in Glacier National Park (and the whole trip in general!)
Ben Gilliland

Alex Recek
Bridesmaid
Favorite memory: Struggling to hike up a Swiss mountain together while our future husbands kicked our asses.
Doug Harrison
Groomsman
Favorite memory: Hiking in Vail, Colorado and accidentally letting go of a tree branch laden with snow that whipped back and hit him square in the face with ice and he got so mad and yelled so loud that the snow melted off of him from pure rage. Lmao, sorry Doug.
Ann Sheehy
Bridesmaid
Favorite memory: Laughing hysterically as we added our own dialogue to Thai soap operas.
Nikki Llorca
Groomsman
Favorite memory: When I came home to our apartment and he accidentally double-bolted the door and was in such deep sleep that he couldn't hear me knocking so I climbed the rear of the building and got on our balcony but those doors were locked too so I had no choice but to call the fire department to physically break our front door down to let me in and wake him up.
Olivia Steinhafel
Bridesmaid
Favorite memory: Talking for hours in Jordan's hot tub. We bonded and also learned an important lesson.

Kelly Wilson

Favorite memory: Going to not one but THREE Beyoncé concerts together.
Ben Weaver
Groomsman
Favorite memory: The time that Brooke was in tears because of a sweet text message she received from Rachel Thompson and she turned and said "you'll never understand the power of female friendship" and in that exact moment, Ben texted me and the boys a picture of a lasagna with the caption "guys I just ate this really big lasagna."
