Kaitlin & Chad
Wedding Party
Ashley Miller
Matron of Honor
Ashley is my older sister, best friend, and all-around amazing human. She’s the best mom around to my adorable nephew Mason and has a baby on the way! We haven't always been the closest of friends, but ever since I lived next door to her during college, we have never been closer! She is always the first person I turn to when I need advice or just need someone to talk to. Ashley will likely be very busy on the big day helping me deal with any of my unnecessary anxiety, as well as delivering a top-notch speech!
Samantha Stull
Bridesmaid
I have known Samantha since we were two. Our parents lived in the same neighborhood, and since they became best friends, we obviously had to as well! She is a lover of exercising. is always hysterical, and is an amazing mom to her adorable daughter. Samantha and I also danced at the same company, which meant we needed to have the same knee surgeries done. Don't let the injuries stop her though, she will be busting a move during the entire reception!
Hannah Lagasse
Bridesmaid
I have known Hannah since 6th grade. We have been through so much together: boyfriends, dances, fights, parties, and secrets. After high school, Hannah moved around a lot, but the distance has not changed our friendship at all! We always make sure to catch up with each other's lives and talk about all of the important updates. She is also the mom to 4 amazing kids. You will definitely find her cracking jokes and bustin out those fiery moves on the dance floor!
Olivia Schrader
Bridesmaid
Olivia and I met while teaching at a school. I never thought that I would meet one of my best friends at work! Our classrooms were right across the hall from each other. Olivia is notorious for keeping me organized and making sure I stay on top of my to-do list (especially when it comes to praxis exams). We have had countless game nights (which typically ends when Chad starts losing--which he hates!). She will definitely be keeping me sane and organized on the big day!
Clancy Hoekzema
Bridesmaid
Clancy is my soon to be sister-in-law. She immediately welcomed me into the family and made me feel loved! This woman is one of the most caring and giving people I have ever met. She is not only caring to the people close to her but all of the people that she sees while working as a nurse. She is also an amazing mom to my adorable nephew Cal! We have had so many memories together, from our trip to Oregon to our many family get-togethers. I can't wait to officially call this lady my sister!
Emily Skeberdis
Bridesmaid
Although Emily and I met because of our boyfriends (now fiances), we quickly became friends! She loves being outdoors and going hiking. Even though she loves spending time outside, she can always find time to watch a movie with me! Emily and Sean even lived right across the street from me and Chad; which allowed for dinners, drinks, and scary movies; which Emily always closed her eyes too! Next year, she will also be getting married and I will have another sister!
Sean Hoekzema
Best Man
Sean is Chad's younger brother. I met Sean the same night that I met Chad. After Chad graduated, Sean I lived together for a year. Although we may have argued and disagreed about some things, I am so happy that we were able to spend all of that time together. Sean loves to play video games (some times all night), cooking fantastic meals, and spending time outside. Be prepared for a hysterical and probably very intellectual speech during the wedding. Oh and you can bet he will be busting some moves with his brother!
Trevin Hoekzema
Groomsman
Trevin is Chad's older brother and Clancy's husband. Trevin is one of the most dedicated and hard-working people that I have ever met. He is also a wonderful dad to our adorable nephew Cal! He loves to travel around the world on missions trips and he recently became a paster. Trevin makes everyone feel so welcomed and cared about from the first time that he meets them. He is also a lover of fishing, and fine cigars and bourbon. I can't wait to officially call him my brother!
David Hoekzema
Groomsman
David is Chad's dad and my soon-to-be father-in-law. He is a lover of fishing, great movies, and of course cigars and bourbon. We always have a great time sitting outside of their house by the bonfire. Dave is always giving great advice and is always there to help. I always enjoy our conversations; especially when we discuss movies! During the wedding, you can definitely expect him and Trevin sneaking out for a bit to share a short story (aka a cigar)!
Mark Hoekzema
Groomsman
Mark is Chad's uncle. He loves to fish, as well as spend time at his cabin in Deep Creek. Since Mark is so knowledgable about the weather, he is always the first one we go to when we want to know if there is a chance of snow lol. Mark also enjoys spending time with his adorable puppy, as well as spotting bears lurking around his cabin. Also, he makes one mean blueberry pie!
Nicholas Jackowski
Groomsman
Nicholas is my younger brother. Chad and Nick bonded immediately over their love of anime; much to my dismay lol. Although Nick and I weren't always close, we have definitely grown to be great friends! I always enjoy our conversations when we catch up on each other's lives. Nick is goofy, funny, and once he has a few angry orchards in him, he will be the life of the party!
Ryan Miller
Groomsman
Ryan is Ashley's husband and my brother-in-law. Ryan is one of the most giving people. He is also one of the best party planners around! Anytime we have a birthday or something to celebrate, Ryan makes sure that it is done right. We have spent so many great times together; from concerts and vacations to our trip to Punxatawny for Groundhogs Day. Ryan is also a very outgoing person. He will definitely be the life of the party at our wedding by showing off his amazing dance moves!
Mason Miller
Ring Bearer
Our amazing nephew Mason is one of the sweetest, most adorable, and funniest kids ever! He enjoys listening to (and gesturing) baby shark, multiple times in a day. He also loves playing outside and swimming. Mason is also super smart and enjoys saying his ABC's, counting (in English and Spanish), and coloring. He also loves to dance and listen to music! Mason will definitely be on the dance floor trying to get everyone to join him!
