Wedding Party
Macy Chilson
Maid of Honor
My sister Macy has been my built-in best friend since I was 6 years old. She is my favorite person to blast music, shop for lipgloss, and try new Crumbl flavors with. She will be the best maid of honor - when Macy found out Matt and I got engaged, she made a pinterest board for our wedding that had 3 times the number of pins than my own wedding board did!
Brandon Bolino
Best Man
Growing up with my older brother Brandon by my side was easily the most memorable part of my childhood. We did absolutely everything together. Although we’re no longer kids and are much older now, we definitely still act like it when we’re together!
Brynn Martsching
Bridesmaid
Brynn is my brother Cole's, fiancée. She is the sweetest and I am so excited that she will not only be my bridesmaid, but also my new sister! Brynn was the only one who believed Matt was flirting with me when he initially messaged me, and sided with me against my whole family. Thanks Brynn, turns out we were right!
Cole Chilson
Groomsman
Cole is my soon to be brother-in-law and current part-time free-of-charge golf instructor. Not only did he teach me how to golf, but he also taught me how to wake surf and water ski for the first time. I am really excited to hopefully someday beat my future brother-in-law in a game of golf!
Grace Lawrence-Stong
Bridesmaid
My friendship with Grace started when she timidly asked to be my buddy during our first clinical lab. I remember how nervous we were our first skills sign off... handwashing. It was then I met the person I would go on countless hikes with, watch dumb shows with, and most importantly find constant support in.
Dylan Guynn
Groomsman
Dylan is one of the most selfless individuals I’ve ever known and one of my childhood best friends. We went through every phase together. Initially it was skateboarding - we thought we were going pro. Eventually it was lifting - Dylan is actually going pro! He’s now my lifting coach and educator on all things muscle.
Josie McKey
Bridesmaid
Josie was my go-to-gal to escape the nursing school campus with. Whether we were going out to Bushwhackers, exploring downtown Seattle, or visiting her cute little hometown for the weekend, it was always a relief to get away with my favorite line dancing PNW girl - and personal PNW tour guide!
Jakob Horwitz
Groomsman
Back in 2016 Jakob was my pledge brother in SAE, and now he’s also my financial advisor. Jakob was the Vice President when I was President of SAE. During that time we took a memorable trip to Chicago together to meet with the national office, go to music festivals, and eat 16 ounce ribeyes at Gibsons Steakhouse!
Katie Huxley
Bridesmaid
Katie and I became friends when she walked up to Grace and I at dinner and said "can I sit here?" That simple moment marked the beginning of a friendship with one of the most compassionate and warm-hearted people I’ve ever known. I can't help but smile every time I recall Katie and I being "school nurses" during our senior year.
Mike Lyons
Groomsman
One of the first people I remember when rushing SAE was Mike because we were both from the San Jose area. He always held high positions in SAE right before me and would mentor me to ensure my success. After college, we lived together for a year… nobody Door Dashed and watched YouTube better than us!
Maddy Evans
Bridesmaid
I have known Maddy for so long that she practically feels like a sister. She is Macy and mine's paddle board buddy, pedicure buddy, and make-fun-of-our-brothers buddy. I'll never forget the fun we had on our annual family house boating trips. Growing up would not have been the same without her!
Skyler Villasenor
Groomsman
Skyler is arguably one of the funniest people I have ever met. I first met him in 2018 and immediately knew we were going to laugh a lot together. Everything Skyler and I did involved humor of some sort, like the time we would dance in the middle of the gym like idiots while attempting PRs on squats and deadlifts.
Nadini Gamage
Bridesmaid
Although Nadini was Matt's friend first, I am happy to call her my friend now too! Nadini always has the biggest smile on her face and she has the biggest heart to match it. She is one of the funniest people I know - if you see Matt and I laughing uncontrollably on the big day, it's probably Nadini's fault!
Tanner Gorski
Groomsman
I have countless memories with Tanner. We lived in the same fraternity house but often slept in each other’s rooms and watched YouTube until midnight. He’s the best football player I’ve played with - when he was the receiver and I was the quarterback for SAE we went undefeated all 3 seasons we played together!
Taylor Boatright
Bridesmaid
Fun fact! Taylor is the first person I met in my first class in college. We grew closer during our senior year of nursing school, after playing lots of Farkle and pickleball. Since graduating, she’s been the person that always has a funny comment to make me smile when a nursing shift is particularly rough.
Yared Golla
Groomsman
Yared and I met when he rushed SAE. As his member educator when he was a pledge, I got to know him very well. After college, Yared lived with me for over 2 years. We talk every day and hold each other accountable for our diets, gym, and work. Yared was also there for my baptism, which made it even more special for me!
