Annie & Joe
Wedding Party
Elisabeth Tarzwell
Maid of Honor
Elisabeth and Annie are sisters by birth, but also two people that really enjoy one another's company. Elisabeth is a proficient crafter, dog mom, and lover of all things comfy. A new Baltimore resident, make sure to ask her about Old Bay Seasoning. Voted most likely to dance after the DJ leaves.
Jake Crawford
Best Man
In their youth, Jake and Joey's favorite activities were building tree houses, playing with firecrackers, and wrestling (Jake usually let Joey win). Throughout their lives, Jake has always made an effort to include his little brother Joey in whatever he was doing, from neighborhood roller hockey tournaments, to road trips across states. One notable adventure was the time they lived together in a vegetarian co-op house after college. These days, Jake is living in Chicago working on a computer science degree. Joe says Jake is the best brother anyone could have, which is why he is the best man.
Amy Blanton
Bridesmaid
Amy and Annie braved Moscow winters, making new friends, and the first two years out of college together. Amy is the master of a perfectly brewed cup of coffee, grower of plant babies and real babies, and a really good cook. Amy is the reason Annie has a cat, make sure to ask her how that came about. Voted most likely to request the song that gets everyone dancing.
Steven Enriquez
Groomsman
Stephen and Joe met at a 6-week college summer program. Stephen was planning to transfer to the University of Illinois after the summer program and their experience at the summer program helped them hit it off. It has become customary that before major life events Joe travels somewhere with Stephen. Before starting graduate school Stephen and Joe went hiking in the Grand Canyon. Before getting engaged, Joe visited Stephen in Barcelona Spain where Stephen was living.
Anna Wilson
Bridesmaid
Anna and Annie have known each other for over twenty years and still aren't sick of one another. Anna has the biggest heart, best phone voice, and has never said no to a dance party. Anna was also the only other person at the proposal, so make sure to get the scoop from her. Voted most likely to cry tears of joy before the ceremony starts.
Florin Nemes
Groomsman
Joe and Florin met the day before Florin married Joe's sister, Lauren. Jake and Joe think they won the brother-in-law lottery with Florin. The Nemes, Lauren and Florin, have a beautiful daughter Izzy (the flower girl) and currently live in Branson, Missouri. Joe's favorite thing about having Florin in the family is the fun and lightheartedness he brings to family gatherings.
Allison Miller
Bridesmaid
Allison and Annie spent most of the first year of their friendship taking care of babies (we both worked at a daycare). Allison loves sweet potato fries, a good walk around the town, and reading books/ watching movies on how to live to 120+ with the help of food. Allison and Annie once went on a weird cult documentary binge, you can ask about it, but be prepared for us ranting for 30 minutes about "Wild Wild Country". Voted most likely to talk Annie out of a last minute little detail freak out.
Brandon Singer
Bridesman
Annie and Brandon met in the 6th grade, and have stayed close ever since. Brandon is a really good and loyal friend who never fails to bring the fun. He's a proud dog lover, a frequent guest at every Kornberg holiday, and loves to put Annie in embarrassing situations. Annie and Brandon have countless memories, but Annie will never forget Brandon riding into 8th grade on a razor scooter dedicated to win an ASB election, so ask him about that. Voted most likely to make Annie laugh during her vows. p.s. he won the election.
Blair Hogan
Bridesmaid
Blair and Annie became insta-friends over a game of cards, and stayed forever-friends through college and into the real world. Blair is a very caring person, who loves to make jokes, and always brings the party with her. Blair just got engaged, ask her about that, and fawn over her bridal beauty. Voted most likely to embroider @hairblogan onto her bridesmaid dress.
Pradeep Shenoy
Groomsman
Pradeep and Joe met at a 6-week college summer program, but they were attending different universities. A few years later, to Joe’s shock, he ran into Pradeep on the University of Illinois campus where Pradeep started his PhD. Seemingly unrelated, after graduating, Joe and his brother Jake moved into a shared-food vegetarian co-operative house and one of their roommates was Gloria. What do you know, Pradeep and Gloria met, and started dating! Pradeep would come to the Harvest House for dinners with Gloria, Jake, Joe, and 15 other people and enjoy quite mediocre vegetarian food! Regardless, there are many memories of Gloria and Pradeep at the Harvest House. They were married and they now live in Dallas, TX with their daughters Hope and Joyelle.
Katie Bineham
Bridesmaid
Katie and Annie met in their freshman year of college, and bonded over watching the entire series "Boy Meets World". Katie is on the brink of being a full time teacher, is Annie's go-to fashion advisor, and loves a good smoothie. Katie has an amazing knack for making any conversation interesting, but, be sure to ask her about all the times she's scared the living daylight out of Anna. Voted most likely to get everyone laughing during pictures.
