Wedding Party
Elizabeth Beck
Bride
Absolute goofball, complete and utter clown, commensurate buffoon. I can't wait to see you all there!
Christopher Ledford
Groom
Aspiring historian, descendant of horse thieves, voracious reader and coparent of two lovely greyhounds.
Christina Volz Stomackin
Matron of Honor
We met through a comedy of errors 15 years ago and have been clowning ever since! She's criminally talented on a violin, came with my family to Vancouver over spring break our senior year of college, and has been there through all of my insufferable phases. Honestly, bless her.
Stephen Payne
Best Man
Meredith Beck
Maid of Honor
My dang sister! Future MD, will definitely get a text every time I think I need to go to the doctor. Insanely smart and determined, I am hyped to have her on the bridal squad. She's a force of nature and goes through interesting phases, my favorite of which would be when she watched White Chicks and baked a cake after school every day for a month straight. She made me a Ferrari cake for my 17th birthday party (thank you for the inspiration for that one, South Park). She's incredibly artistic, too, and you should add her on Snapchat (beckmere) because she's got the most incredible snap game on the planet.
Bethany Blair
Bridesmaid
She may have a law degree and have passed the bar, and I may be six years deep into a career in real estate, but deep down we are both 12 years old. I've known Bethany since high school and I'm so lucky to have not lost touch with her even after six years of living in/farting around different cities. I still have the Günther shirt you bought me!
Kate Maynard
Bridesmaid
We met at orientation at UGA and I subliminally convinced her to change her major to English. We took 10 classes together during our four years in college, and I got to be in her wedding, too! For my birthday one year in college, she got me an L. Ron Hubbard interview on DVD. I actually watched it out of curiosity and had to get rid of it immediately.
Ella Broadbooks
Bridesmaid
Believe it or not, we met on the internet five years ago and then hung out for the first time at my grandma's house in Illinois. She's coming all the way from Des Moines and baked all these beautiful wedding cakes!
Shey Wilkin
Bridesmaid
How do I even begin to justify this absolute cinnamon roll of a human being? When I was looking for a roommate for my future dorm, Shey sent me a Facebook message while I was in Vancouver on spring break. She seemed like an utter delight, so we got to talking some more and decided to live together. Unbeknownst to me, she had actually watched a video on my Facebook of me talking in the most god-awful, grating, goofy voice about how "I can't believe we got robbed at Cleveland Dam, surely the beauty of the mountain would have stopped it!" She said oh, okay, she sounds like that, her profile says she's from Budapest (I'm decidedly, absolutely not Hungarian), and somehow was okay with that? What a saint. She's a new mom, too, so be sure to get your flu shot and say hi to baby Alexander!
JJ Bergren
Bridesmaid
JJ was Ella's friend who I immediately became friends with, too, because how could I pass up the friendship squad opportunity? The future is truly incredible - you can meet and befriend people online who don't turn out to be serial killers and instead become lifelong friends.
Jason Mallory
Groomsman
Alex Barnes

Alex Teich

John Ledford

Grace Barnes
Ring Bearer
Grace is the coolest kid and we are so happy to have her in the wedding! One of our many nieces, she rocks at softball, is funny as heck, and joined Lily and Emma in teaching the ancient art of how to tackle someone in a bouncy castle without them seeing you.
Guinevere Bucsko
Flower Girl
Y'all aren't ready for this. No one child should have all this cuteness.
Scott Friedman
Officiant
Scott is your friend's dad who psychically adopts all of his daughters' friends as their own. It is an honor to have him officiate our wedding, and we are tickled pink by how seriously he has taken this. He's been such a supportive figure in our lives (and in our dogs' lives, too!) and makes the world a better place by being exactly who he is.
Ross Keong
Ring Maker
I've known Ross since the 6th grade, and I honestly cannot believe he's put up with me for this long. Aside from being the coolest person I know, he's also an extremely talented artist. This guy 3D-printed our wedding bands - so check 'em out up close and get you one! And check out his website while you're here: fatesny.com.
