Maid of Honor
Courtney here! I'm thrilled to be Cassie's Maid of Honor and return the favor since she was my Maid of Honor back in 2013. We met at her UTD Orientation (well, technically before on Facebook, but don't tell anyone!) and our friendship was solidified via our Theta sisterhood. Many a night and weekend was spent together studying in the honors lounge listening to our shared playlist (that I listen to regularly still) or driving into the local fancy neighborhoods and "house shopping" while dreaming of the day we'd be neighbors. Even though I live in Portland, Oregon now, Cassie and I still talk almost daily and I'm thrilled to travel back home to Texas to stand by her side as she and Robbie celebrate their wedding!
Best Man
I met Robbie in high school - he's one of the few friends from that part of my life that I still speak with. Honestly, it was an unlikely pairing of friends between very different clicks, but we shared a mutual love for food, culture, and geekdom. We've been friends ever since - sharing laughs, long discussions over dinner, and epic / disastrous gaming moments over a decade later. Robbie has always been a north star for me in a lot of ways. Not just because he's stubborn as heck - but he is always morally sound, considerate, and kind.

My name is Ashley and I was born and raised in DFW, though I moved to the Washington DC area in early 2020. I met Cassie in September of 2010 during our Freshman year at UTD. We became bffs the moment we met and we have been inseparable ever since. I am so excited to stand by Cassie and Robbie as they get married and he finally takes her off my hands.

Cassie, as my older sister and only sibling, was my first friend. Although we often quarrelled as children, today she is also one of my very best friends. We share many passions, like travel, good food, and corgis. She is incredibly authentic, caring, strong, intelligent, and funny, and is an inspiration to me. I am so happy to be able to celebrate with her as she gets married. Robbie is a newer friend, but also one that I am very fond of. It is hard not to appreciate his nerdiness, kindness, and spectacular cooking skills. Most of all, I love that he makes Cassie happy and treats her well. I look forward to having a new brother!

Hi guys! I’m Caitlin, and Cassie and I met in 2013 while we were working as Orientation Team Mentors at UTD (whoosh!). We quickly became the dynamic duo Cass & Cait and began entertaining (annoying?) everyone in our path! The theme parties that we coordinated were silly yet EPIC, and some of my favorite memories that we have together! She is the most supportive and wonderful “big sis”, and was even the maid of honor in my wedding! I’m so blessed to get to stand by her side on her special day!

Hello everyone! I'm Chris. I met Cassie first when we were all still in undergrad. Then came along Robbie. Our friendship started to blossom from one Reddit post about a beta fish. Then I became a source of entertainment for both of them while on their road trip to Ohio. It's been a pleasure being friends with both of them and I can't wait to stand at their side on their big day.

I'm Holly, and I have been lucky to get to call Cassie my friend for the last six years and my sister for three years since I married her brother! In that time, Cassie has also been my pastry chef every Thanksgiving, my competitor in numerous card games and board games, my hostess when we got to work remote in Dallas for two weeks, my adventure buddy when she came to visit us in Mexico, and so much more. Cassie also took me on my first trip to Ikea, which my husband probably regrets. I am so excited to welcome Robbie to the family, to stand beside Cassie on her big day, and to show off my dance moves at the reception!

I first met Robert at the T-Mobile Service Desk. We would regularly visit each other’s cubes once we found out that we both liked WH40k, though he would regularly call me a heretic for running Xeno armies.Our friendship has continued to grow through Warhammer, video games, and sharing memes in group chat. Robert has always been very chivalrous, always aspiring to be a gentleman, but he’s never been above cracking jokes, even if they’re at his own expense, just so long as everyone is having a good time.

Hey friends, I'm Krystal! I met Cassie while at UTD junior year on a Greek intramural team. I loved Cassie's joy, adventurous spirit and genuine friendship. Our best adventure so far has been driving roundtrip to the Crater of Diamond State Park in Arkansas in one day, blasting Disney music to stay awake at 1 am. I'm delighted to support Cassie and Robbie on their wedding day, and for the many years to come that will promise board games, dinner parties and more crazy adventures.

I moved to Texas in 2016 and didn't have any friends. Because let's be real, how do you even make friends as an adult? A few months after moving here I started working at T-Mobile and Robert was one of the first people I met. At first I thought "wow this guy is a jerk because he keeps ripping my hood off my head" and after getting to know him more I realized that is exactly what he is, but regardless he's a great friend, he's always been there for me to vent about life and never judge me for the stupid things I do or say. One time he even offered for me to live in the empty apartment that he moved out of.

Howdy! I'm Becca, and soon Cassie will be my new sister! I met Cassie a little over a year ago, when she started dating my brother. Even before I met her, listening to my brother talk about her, I knew she was special! I'm so excited to have another sassy, board-game loving woman joining our family. Also someone I can talk to endlessly about my cat with and she "get's it". I can't wait for her to marry my big brother and gain a sister!

Robbie and I met a couple of years ago when I started dating Robbie's sister, Rebecca. Knowing Robbie for a couple of years now, with half the time being during quarantine, we've still been able to bond over aquariums, long history lectures, and trying not to get each other killed by dinosaurs while playing videogames together. Robbie is one of the most kind-hearted gentleman I know, always making sure everyone feels included and leaves with a smile on their face.

Hey there! I’m Rosie and am lucky to call Cassie one of my oldest friends. After meeting in my freshman year of high school, we quickly realized how well we clicked. From fast food runs to marching band practices, chatting in our driveways and endless inside jokes; I am ever blessed to have Cassie’s even temper, loving support, and sense of humor in my life. While we grew up together in Ohio, I now call Vermont home. Through distance and time I am beyond grateful for our friendship. I am honored and elated to stand with Cassie and Robbie on their special day!
