Wedding Party
Alan Kitchen
Best Man
Elario and Alan’s friendship is the kind that runs on laughs, inside jokes, and a healthy dose of sarcasm. Whether it's the next golf trip or just hanging out and watching a game, they keep things fun and effortless. Saturdays in the fall are basically sacred—quick 9, college football, questionable predictions, and plenty of yelling at the TV (mostly the officials). They’re also each other’s go-to sounding board, swapping advice that’s sometimes wise, sometimes chaotic, but always appreciated. Through the ups, the downs, and the “did-that-really-just-happen” moments, they show up for each other every time. According to Elario, "he is the brother I never had and one of the greatest blessings I now do have." It’s a friendship powered by good times, shared passions, and unwavering support… with the occasional reminder that a mulligan is absolutely a legitimate life strategy.
Erin Langseth
Matron of Honor
Caitlin and Erin’s story started long before either of them knew just how special their friendship would become — back in Grammie Jo’s backyard, running around at 4th of July BBQs with sparklers in hand and endless cousins by their side. After college, both found themselves in the Denver area. Erin and Caitlin became roommates, though “ships in the night” might be more accurate. While Caitlin was off to Stryker for her daytime hustle, Erin was holding down the fort as a charge nurse on night shifts at Swedish. Even with opposite schedules, they’ve celebrated every milestone together — Erin cheering on Caitlin’s milestone birthdays in Texas, Caitlin proudly watching Erin earn her DNP from Creighton University, and of course, standing beside each other through all of life’s biggest moments.
