Wedding Party

Meet the actual and chosen family in our lives who will be by our side on our wedding day.

Heather Snell

Maid of Honor

We met in 2008, in Los Angeles, on a student film and became fast friends. Then came the era of roommates...and co-workers...and sisters. Heather has been by my side through it all, near and far. She's like a big sister, she has helped shaped me, challenged me, supported me, and now she will intimately share the most important day of my life with me!


Paul Unterstein

Best Man

Paul is Chris's older brother. He resides in Cookeville, TN with wife, Christi, and daughter, Isabella. Even though there is 12 year age gap between the three Unterstein boys, the bond we all share is undeniable and unbreakable thanks to many years of brotherly love and shenanigans. We are blessed and thankful that Paul can share this special day with us

Justine Katzenbach

Bridesmaid

When Ryan met Justine, I knew she'd be in our family for life. I am so wildly lucky to have a sister-in-law that is someone I would independently choose as a friend. She is one of the most kind and patient people you can hope to meet, she loves to laugh, host and enjoy great dinners like I do, and she makes you feel like the only person in the room.


Alix Watson

Bridesmaid

Alix and I went from barely-known acquaintances to "let's be roommates" in one night of good 'ol college fun. We share a deep love of food and wine, and even traveled to Portugal together in 2019. Alix would give you the shirt off her back- endlessly generous, funny, laid back, with a great sense of direction, I can't imagine this day without her.

Ana Raab

Bridesmaid

Ana and I met quite possibly the first day of Santa Clara University freshman year move-in, and I was instantly charmed. She is disarming, witty, kind, and so much fun. Ana and I can go from cracking up to deep conversation in half a second, and I can always count on her for authenticity.


Kristin Swenson

Bridesmaid

It was so nice to meet another tall girl who had me beat right off the bat during college move-in. Kristin and Ana were roommates and lived one floor above me in the luxurious SCU high-rise dorm, Swig. We called their room the "trust tree," and I spent a whole lot of time in there. Kristin is always good for a belly laugh, excellent restaurant recommendations, sound advice, and a mean air guitar- which will be required at the wedding.

Lisa McGaffey

Bridesmaid

Lisa rounds out the Santa Clara friends, and she brings utter hilarity to all situations. She's a caring teacher and mom who makes everyone laugh, and is as reliable as you could want from a friend.


Ryan Brown

Groomsman

Ryan is Laura's brother and a best friend of both Chris and Laura. He lives in Asheville, North Carolina with Justine and their adorable daughter Genevieve, and Chris and Laura visit often. Ryan is always good for a laugh and warm hospitality, and we're both so grateful he's not too far away and can be part of this day.
