Wedding Party

Chloe Post

Bride

As an avid reader (particularly of romance books), I never thought I would be living the stories that have been put on paper. Our relationship has been one of the best experiences of my life and it just gets better. From running around DC to making it through deployment, I am more grateful to have Garin than I have ever been. I can not wait to have all of our friends and family together to celebrate the love we have for one another. Moreso, I am eager to experience a lifetime filled with laughter, dumb jokes, and endless bookstore dates. Oh, and of course, sassy Mushu moments.

Garin Reese

Groom

Meet Garin, a kind-hearted and adventurous soul who is always ready with a smile and a helping hand. A lover of model building and guitar, he brings enthusiasm and warmth to everything he does. Whether he’s cracking jokes with friends or supporting his loved ones, Garin has a way of making everyone feel special. Known for his loyalty, sense of humor, and determination, he is excited to start this new chapter with Chloe, as they build a life full of love, laughter, and endless adventures together.

Gracie Houser

Maid of Honor

Gracie has been one of Chloe’s best friends for nearly 6 years. Introduced by Gracie’s brother, Chloe and Gracie were instantly close. As they have grown up, they have managed to keep in touch despite going to separate colleges and visiting home at separate times. They have made roadtrips to see each other to maintain their friendship. Gracie is easily one of the most resilient and remarkable people in Chloe’s life and is thrilled to have a young woman of this par standing next to her for the big day.

Ethan "Funny Man" Byars

Bridesman

This is Ethan, a beloved Bridesman and self-appointed Chief of Shenanigans! Known for his quirky dance moves and ability to turn any moment into a comedy show, he’s the one who keeps things awkwardly entertaining (in the best way possible). Whether he’s cracking jokes at the most serious moments or ‘gracefully’ tripping over his own feet, Ethan brings a special kind of charm that no wedding party would be complete without. Chloe is extremely grateful for her years long friendship with Ethan and looks forward to having him present on the big day!

Karen Riviera

Bridesmaid

Zeke Houser

Bridesman

This is Zeke, our wonderfully quiet and ever-supportive Bridesman. He might be a man of few words, but when he does speak, it’s always something you would not expect. Zeke has a special knack for keeping things calm amidst the wedding day excitement and brings a steady presence to our crew. While he may prefer to stay out of the spotlight, his loyalty and quiet humor make him an irreplaceable part of this celebration. Chloe met Zeke when he was 14 and they have been great friends ever since.

Lily Golden

Junior Bridesmaid

Chloe has adored her time watching her cousin, Lily, grow up to be the hilarious spit-fire she is today. Lily is the life of the party through her charm and bright spirit. Chloe and Lily have had a sister-like relationship for all of Lily’s life. One of Chloe’s favorite compliments is that Lily is a mini version of her. Chloe is beyond excited to experience her wedding with her (not so) baby cousin.

David DeWald

Groomsman

Say hello to David (better known as Dewey), the perfect mix of nerdy charm and kindness. The groom and David share the exact same sense of humor and love of mechanical processes. No matter what, he’s always there with a laugh and a helping hand. A true friend who brings heart and humor to everything he does. We’re lucky to have him as part of this special day!

Kail Jones

Groomsman

Meet Jones! Jones is the most heartwarming person someone can ever meet. He is always happy to listen to a friend or share a drink. Jones is the perfect mix of wholesome and party animal. Because of his kind heartedness, he will be the perfect addition to our wedding party.

Andrew Lin

Groomsman

Katrina May

Mother of the Bride

Known as Auntie Kai, Katrina has been through this journey with the bride and the groom through her unwavering support in their relationship. She has been a role model for strength and perseverance as Chloe has grown. With a keen eye for detail and an abundance of love, Katrina is ecstatic to see her daughter start a new chapter. She could not be happier with the man who will be her future son-in-law.

Erick Post

Father of the Bride

Meet Erick, the proud father of the bride. Throughout Chloe's life, he has been her steadfast protector, guide, and biggest cheerleader. As he walks her down the aisle, he celebrates not only the incredible woman she has become but also the joy of welcoming Garin into the family. As he likes to joke, Erick is glad for Chloe to be someone else’s headache (he quickly follows it up with “but Chloe will always be my headache too”). With a heart full of love and pride, Erick is honored to share this special moment as his daughter begins her next chapter.

Mitzi Reese

Mother of the Groom

Mitzi has always been a source of strength, love, and inspiration in Garin's life. Her unwavering support and care have shaped him into the person he is today. She is known for her kindness, warmth, and the deep bonds she shares with family and friends. On this special day, we are honored to celebrate not only the union of two hearts but also the remarkable woman who raised the groom with love and grace. We are grateful for her presence and the joy she brings to our lives.

Greg Reese

Father of the Groom

Greg has been a guiding light in Garin's life, instilling values of integrity, hard work, and compassion. He has always been a source of wisdom and support, shaping Garin into the man he is today. His love for family, sense of humor, and dedication are admired by all who know him. As we celebrate this special day, we are deeply grateful for his role in raising such a wonderful son and for the strength and love he continues to bring to our lives.

Richard Post

Officiant

Say hello to Richie, the bride’s brother and, on this special day, your official wedding officiant! Known for his expert skills in embarrassing the bride by being a goober and giving unsolicited advice, he’s honored to be the one tying the knot for his sister and her lucky groom. Get ready for a ceremony filled with love, laughter, and maybe a few awkward moments only family can provide!
