Lindsay & Chris
Wedding Party
Beth Llyod
Matron of Honor
After Lindsay promised Beth that she was not crazy, Beth agreed to live with Lindsay for their sophomore year through senior year of college. Beth quickly learned that Lindsay lied about not being crazy but that has led to many wonderful adventures such as a winter tour of Europe, attempting to send messages in bottles, and a barely planned road trip to Texas by way of Florida.
Tom Jodon
Best Man
Chris and Tom became friends in highschool, and have stayed close despite living hundreds of miles apart for almost 20 years. Yearly hiking trips to talk philosophy, politics, and the pitfalls of getting old - these two greybeards will continue to rant about the state of the world well in to the future.
Jen Viola
Matron of Honor
One of Lindsay's first friends at UNCG, Jen has Lindsay's best friend and counselor for many years, from UNCG and beyond! Not only is she great for advice, Jen and Lindsay have the weirdest, wildest adventures. There is no one else Lindsay would rather be stuck with tubing down a river during a thunderstorm.
John Chapman
Groomsman
Like Tom, John and Chris became good friends in highschool and have stayed close despite the ever increasing distance between them. The optimist of the group, John helps keep Tom and Chris looking forward to a bright future.
Andrea Kowalski
Bridesmaid
Andrea has been Lindsay's best friend since 2nd grade. They were purposefully placed in the same class every year from 2nd grade until high schools since they could not survive without each other! Andrea and Lindsay were inseparable growing up and Andrea's family is Lindsay's and Lindsay's family is her's. Andrea was Lindsay's first friend and has been the person Lindsay has gone to for everything for over 25 years.
Brandon Cisar
Groomsman
Chris's original best friend, Brandon is the oldest brother of the family. From riding bikes as kids, to epic family beach trips, and on to incredibly fun trips to visit DC and Colorado - Chris and Brandon stay close friends and brothers.
Amanda Kukkala
Bridesmaid
Our story begins with dancing together in grade school (you might remember her from such roles as Clara in the Nutcracker). Then our serendipitous story picks back up when she was attending the University of South Carolina when Lindsay was working for U of SC's admissions office. We found out mutual love for DC adventures, ballet, wine, and stories that take over two hours to tell.
Jordan Cisar
Groomsman
Chris's younger brother and video game teammate. Jordan has made the long journey to see Colorado with his dog Ace, and shares Chris's absurdist humor. A lifelong best friend and close brother.
Amanda DiMartini
Bridesmaid
What started as a random Craigslist roommate in DC quickly turned into one of Lindsay's closest friends! Amanda has been a best friends to Lindsay, a cheerleader for Chris/Lindsay, and the best Bella snuggler around. Even with moving across the country, Amanda makes it a priority to reach out for movie parties or long chats spanning from TV shows to policy debates.
Tom Sparhawk
Groomsman
Tom and Chris worked together a long time ago in Akron, and have stayed friends ever since. Tom (accidentally) followed Chris to Washington DC for work, and Chris returned the favor by following Tom to Colorado. Their conversations are typically indecipherable to the outside ear, but they will be laughing til tears come out of their eyes with whatever they are saying.
Justin Tulloss
Bridesman
Lindsay's first friend and older brother, she has looked up to Justin since the day she was born. Lindsay is so thankful to have a brother that not only include her but also be there for her whether for advice (sound or joking) and fun adventures such as a brother/sister backpacking trip. She is so lucky to call her big brother one of her best friends.
Jack Hiland
Groomsman
Chris's youngest brother. Despite not growing up together, and living across the country from each other, these two can pick up a conversation and talk about anything.
Ryan Walsh
Officiant
Ryan has had the privilege(?) of living with both Chris and Lindsay (separately) early on in our relationship. He started as a random Craigslist roommate with Lindsay. She then reluctantly shared him with Chris as both a roommate and video game teammate. He was a support of our relationship from day one and Lindsay actually was texting Ryan for advice the first time she hung out with Chris :)
Bella Cisar
Best Pup/ Pup of Honor
Bella has been in Lindsay's life since she was 2 months old and Chris joined their duo 10 months later. Since then, our little family has been inseparable. From long hikes to cuddles on the couch, Bella has been a key part of our family for the 10-years we have been together. She will always be our little Stinkus.
Caitlyn Garner & Meghan Flint
Greeters
While Meghan and Caitlyn are truly twins, Lindsay loves to be the third wheel in what she has hence renamed our group to the triplets. Lindsay has loved growing up so close with her cousins and these past few years have been even more fun as we do yearly cousins trips. Our destinations have included Washington DC, Camping in Kentucky, San Francisco, Colorado and Virginia. She is so thankful have these ladies both as family and friends!
