Caitlin & Will
Wedding Party
Samantha Castro
Matron of Honor
Samantha is my wonderful, older sister but she's also one of my best friends. If any of this wedding seems organized and together, it's because of her! She is the person you call to talk any situation through and she'll support you but she'll also tell you like it is. She is such a strong individual, so much fun to be around, and one of the worlds most amazing mothers!! She's always organizing events to bring the family together and share in moments like cooking classes, book club, and sister hangout time. Even though I moved to Huntsville, Samantha and I are just as close, maybe even closer. I would not be who I am today if it wasn't for the support of my older sister. Samantha is the wife of Brandon Castro and the wonderful mother to Elliott Grace Castro and Knox Poston Castro.
Emma Blanton
Maid of Honor
EMMA IS MY SWEET, SUPER CUTE, WONDERFUL, LITTLE SISTER! Isn't she just adorable? Look at how cute she is! OH! I just love her! Emma is my little, my boose, whatever I call her, she's my little sister that I've loved since the day she was born. I could share a thousand memories and moments of me and this kiddo but just know that every single one of them was filled with love and laughter! She's my dancing buddy and sing-at-the-top-of-your-lungs-in-the-car-buddy! She's so accepting of exactly who you are and will be there for you, no matter what. I ADORE this kid! She's such a kind, smart, and caring woman and I'm so proud of her! Emma is the dog mom to a Ms. Daisy Blanton and the hermit crab, Fish.
Alyssa Forest
Bridesmaid
Alyssa is my best friend and one of my favorite people in the world! We've been friends since middle school so she's seen me through every minor or major event in my life. Alyssa is a person who's always so full of life and energy; you are guaranteed to have fun while being around her! She's my go-to person to ask for advice, to vent to, to go dancing with, for everything! Alyssa and I are such good friends because we have so much in common; we're both nerdy, we're always down to dance, we can both can quote any Disney movie or song, we both love Supernatural, and we're both awesome people! Alyssa is the wife of Eric Forest and the wonderful mother of the cutest little puddin' Heath Forest.
Sarah Williams
Bridesmaid
Sarah and I have been best friends since middle school! She's so amazingly wonderful! We've supported each other through all events in each others lives, small or major, and I can't imagine doing my wedding without her. Sarah is always passionate about everything she does and cares about those who are important to her with all she's got. Sarah is a nerdy individual with great taste in music and she LOVES Harry Potter and cats! Sarah is also my hair stylist and the reason my hair always looks so good! (thank you, Sarah!) Sarah is the wife of Rachael Williams, her two kitties Gypsy and Aiden, and her new little baby daughter, Liliana.
Diane Aloisio
Bridesmaid
Diane and I met through work and we INSTANTLY became great friends!!! She's originally from New York and moved to Huntsville shortly after I did. Diane is someone who you can talk to, who will support you, but isn't afraid to tell you how it is and I LOVE THAT! She's always down to go on little adventures around Huntsville with me from candle making class, hiking, painting and wine class, or just hanging out watching The Great British Baking Show! She's made my life in Huntsville so much better and I'm so glad to have her in this momentous event in mine and Will's lives. Diane is the wife of Matt Aloisio and the dog momma to Cooper!
Ashley Rainey
Bridesmaid
Ashley is my older brother's wife; his lobster!!! She's such a kind and compassionate soul! This compassion helps her in her job and true calling as a vet tech tending to animals. Ashley and I immediately bonded when Nick brought her to meet everyone, not just because she has great taste in music. And, if you've met Ashley, you understand why. She's so fun to be around! She makes any event that much better by just being her positive, happy self! Ashley is the wife of Nick Rainey; the dog mom to Ren, Kanga, Little, and Boo; and a new mom to the newest addition to our family, Tiny Turd (name TBD).
Jim Young
Best Man
Jim has been my big brother for as longer as I can remember. There is a pretty significant age gap between me and my siblings, so by the time I was starting to record memories, they were moving out of of the house. Jim coming home to visit was always magical for me. He always had the coolest music, did the coolest things and he had a significant impact on making sure I knew there was more to life than living in rural Alabama. I was so intent on not having a southern accent that I apparently even modeled my own voice after him. To this day, we sound very much alike. Jim has been an excellent big brother and has had a huge impact on the person I am today and I am thankful for that. Jim is the cat dad to Merde
Garin Morgan
Groomsman
I first met Garin when I was in 5th grade. It wasn't until 7th grade that we really interacted with each other. I pretty much hated him until about 9th grade when he became good friends with one of my friends and we were more or less forced to hang out together. I was talked into learning to play bass for their band and we eventually bonded over hanging out at whoever's house would allow us to play our music and doing things we probably weren't supposed to be doing at those places. After high school, I moved to Pittsburgh for a few years. When I came back, Garin and I reunited and we decided to get an apartment together. I have a lot of treasured memories of that time together. This guy has seen me at my best and worst, just as I have him.
Mark Sanchez
Groomsman
I first met Mark in 9th grade when I went to the Limestone County Vocational school for half of my school day everyday to take computer electronics. Mark was from a different high school and we bonded over making fun of our incompetent teacher. Mark invited me to play trumpet in his ska band. I didn't do that very long, but Mark and I became good friends regardless. I eventually introduced Mark to Garin and other folks from my high school and we all ended up joining a band together. We spent many afternoons playing music in Mark's upstairs rec room and going outside to smoke, way too often. Mark and I have stayed friends through our adulthood and while we may not see each other super often, we always pick right back up where we left off whenever we do see each other.
Nick Rainey
Groomsman
Nick is my awesome older brother and he's a big ol' teddy bear! Seriously, the dude is 6'8"! I used to always call Nick when I had exciting news; it was my favorite! I would call him in my excited high pitched voice and at an ungodly rate say the exciting news then say "Ok, that's it! Love you! BYE!" and hang up! Oddly enough, he always understood what I said. And, it would always make him laugh! Nick has ALWAYS looked out for me and been the protective older brother and I'm so excited to have him as part of the wedding party! Nick is the husband of Ashley Rainey; the dog dad to Ren, Kanga, Little, and Boo; and a new dad to the newest addition to our family, Tiny Turd (name TBD).
Zachary Blanton
Groomsman
Zac-a-man is my LITTLE BROTHER!!!!! I freaking love this kid! He's the sweetest little puddin'! Zac put up with me through my angsty years and our relationship is stronger because of it. He and I have the same taste in music so we're constantly talking about bands. Well, that and video games. And books. And movies. And shows... We have a LOT in common! When Zac and Em were younger, we used to snuggle up with my computer and sift through memes for hours and laugh our heads off! A lot of inside jokes between us from back in the day. This little guy, (well, again, not very little; he's 6'4") immediately bonded with Will and has supported our relationship from the beginning and I'm so glad to have him in the wedding.
Brandon Castro
Groomsman
Brandon is my older sister, Samantha Castro's, husband! Brandon has been a part of my life and my family for almost half my life and it's been awesome! Brandon is so much fun to be around. He's always full of energy and jokes and is always down for anything. Brandon has always been supportive of me and acted like an older brother to me and the rest of my family. He's always there for me when I need advice; whether in work or in life. He's an amazing father and makes the cutest and funniest videos with his children which I adore. They make it easier to be a part of their lives when Will and I are so far away. Brandon is the husband of Samantha Castro and the goofy father to Elliott Grace Castro and Knox Poston Castro, and dog dad to Koda.
