Wedding Party
Claire Stemann
Maid of Honor
"During quarantine, I’ve had to adjust to no longer sharing a room with Callie after four glorious years of life together ;) I’ve been spending my days finally reading books that Callie recommended to me long ago, finding and cooking recipes that are far too complicated for my skill level, and losing every game of Catan that I’ve played."
Evan Withrow
Best Man
"During quarantine you can find me waiting in the Chick-Fil-A drive-thru line, watching Fuller House on repeat, or (trying) to play golf."
Valerie Lundeen
Bridesmaid
“Recently in quarantine, I’ve been introducing adventure into my life by having to sleep on various couches and unused beds in my college rental house, as my own room has become infested with insects and paint fumes. In between finding a safe place to lay my weary head at night, I enjoy taking long walks approximately 57 times per day. At the beginning of quarantine, I was blessed to be able to take a few of those walks with Callie Gaskins herself!”
Mitchell Saunders
Groomsman
"During quarantine, I’ve enjoyed binging new Netflix shows (Outer Banks, Space Force), starting the Marvel series on Disney+, and getting to spend some quality time with my wife and pups! Life hasn’t looked too different with work, but I’ve enjoyed staying young by downloading TikTok and watching the ridiculously creative things people can come up with!"
Sarah Macris
Bridesmaid
"This quarantine, I’ve finally given in and downloaded TikTok. I’ve spent far too many hours keeping up with the cool kids and chuckling over Dadosour videos - ya know if ya know."
Jamie Gaston
Groomsman
"During quarantine I pass the time working remotely and usually watching tv shows at the same time (don’t tell my boss!). I also enjoy reading, working out, and podcasting with Ryan and Evan on our new show “Shake 'n Take.” My wife Kali and I have been spending much of quarantine with family in Virginia and Indiana, but are excited for life in Raleigh to return to some semblance of normalcy soon."
Anna Scott
Bridesmaid
"My favorite quarantine hobbies include begging my roommates to go on walks with me, tanning in the yard, waiting patiently for the UPS man to bring me things I’ve ordered online, and watching squirrels out the window...wait, did I turn into a golden retriever?!"
Daniel Haskett
Groomsman
"During quarantine, I haven’t stopped “grindin’” (lol coffee shop owner jokes) [editor's note: Daniel owns Canvas Coffee House in Newport News, VA. Check it out: canvascoffeehouse.com]. Also, I’ve been hanging with my wife a lot more."
Elizabeth Weller
Bridesmaid
"Quarantine has meant extra shifts for me — and not only as an “essential employee” (no zoom calls for nurses!). I’ve also taken on the task of singlehandedly supporting the local restaurant scene in Charlottesville and keeping the online retail industry afloat! Not all heroes wear capes."
Palmer Jones
Groomsman
"What I’ve been doing in quarantine: taking walks, lifting weights, driving across the country, drinking coffee, waiting tables, and washing dishes."
Megan Goyer
Bridesmaid
"My quarantine hobby is being forced to watch the same 8 British actors in every British tv show ever, thanks to my parents."
Will Gaskins
Groomsman
"During quarantine, you will most likely find me buying and selling boats and spending time out on the water fishing. In between boat projects I can be found suffering through an online calculus class."
Claire Goyer
Bridesmaid
"My favorite hobby through this quarantine is sleeping until 4 pm."
Tucker Gaskins
Groomsman
"Throughout quarantine, I've enjoyed some nice rounds of golf as well as some peaceful nights alone watching Netflix."
