Katelyn & Chad
Wedding Party
Emily Corridon
Maid of Honor
Emily is Katelyn's middle sister. From youth softball tournaments, high school sports, college fun traveling back and forth between JMU and UVA, to all they have tackled since, they have always been side by side. Emily is always there for Katelyn for anything from outfit advice, to venting about work, to sharing her deepest secrets. Katelyn feels so lucky to get to call her sister her best friend!
Zack Britt
Best Man
Zack (ZTB) and Chad have been friends since they were three years old and Zack has always been like a brother to him. For 27 years Zack and Chad have been together for the good times, some questionable times, and some they just can't talk about. Zack was even there to help make Chad's proposal to Katelyn perfect. He couldn't imagine a better man to stand by his side. Zack has always been there for Chad and he is super thankful for their friendship.
Jamie Corridon
Maid of Honor
Katelyn always enjoyed reliving her days at UVA and in Alpha Phi whenever she went back to visit Jamie. Katelyn even followed her all the way to Spain to continue to take advantage of her cool youngest sister’s adventures! Katelyn always appreciates Jamie's honest advice - in wedding planning and in life and is very thankful for her built in best friend.
Jacob Bailey
Groomsman
Jacob and Chad are actually cousins, but if you didn't know that you would think they were brothers. He is one of Chad's best friends, and despite the age difference, Jacob is someone that Chad greatly respects. He has been there for some of Chad's hardest moments in life and Chad wouldn't be the man he is today without Jacob's kindness and accountability.
Brooke Duncan
Bridesmaid
Brooke is Chad’s older sister and Katelyn couldn’t be more thrilled to be getting the older sister she always wanted. Plus three fantastic nieces! Holidays, beach trips and football weekends in Auburn are the best with Brooke!
Joseph Bailey
Groomsman
Joseph and Chad are as close as cousins can be. From family vacations, to holidays, to late night hangouts, Joseph and Chad have grown an inseparable bond. Chad can trust Joseph with anything in his life and he is very thankful to have such a great friend in his cousin Joseph. He couldn't imagine his life or his wedding day without him!
Kelly Cranfill
Bridesmaid
Kelly and Katelyn are so much alike they would constantly butt heads when they were younger, but these cousins grew into the closest friends. Katelyn loved getting to stand next to Kelly on her wedding day and is thrilled to have Kelly as one of her bridesmaids.
William Martin
Groomsman
Will and Chad...where do we begin. They have been through it all together since high school and some even joked that Will's family adopted Chad. Chad would come up to Athens every other weekend to visit in college and the tradition lives on. Katelyn and Will's wife Sarah have now become great friends allowing Will and Chad to continue to have weekends filled with grilling, drinks and golf. Chad really looks up to Will as a great example of a husband and father and is so thankful for his friendship.
Christina McGarry
Bridesmaid
From drives to and from UVA to road tripping up the west coast in a mustang convertible for their 25th birthdays, Katelyn can always count on Christina for long talks and quality time. Their love of wine, cider and beautiful Virginia views even landed them at Castle Hill many years ago where they remarked at how it would be a gorgeous venue for a wedding!
Jon McRae
Groomsman
Jon and Chad's relationship is one of a kind. It started in middle school and still to this day grows even stronger. Jon and Chad were high school teammates on the baseball field and they continue to push each other to grow and be the best versions of themselves. Chad can always count on Jon to carve out time for them to spend together despite how busy life can get. They enjoy golf weekends, wings, and just hanging out and Chad can always talk to Jon about anything....but Chad is definitely stronger.
Melissa Kolazyk-Fonte
Bridesmaid
Fate threw Katelyn and Melissa together in too many ways at once for them to not end up becoming fast friends. They have made it through Pure Barre teaching, a terrible PT school clinical rotation, and golden retriever puppy parenting together and Katelyn couldn’t be more thankful that Melissa introduced her to Chad. How different life would be if Melissa and Katelyn never had met!
Peter Fonte
Groomsman
Peter and Chad met in 5th grade and Peter has played an enormous role in Chad's life. They lived together in Auburn for 2 years, and if it wasn't for Peter's wife Melissa, they would probably still be living together. Peter is one of Chad's closest friends and he knows Peter will always be there for him, no matter what. Chad would never have met Katelyn without Peter and Melissa! Peter and Chad have so many good memories together but they most enjoy quality time together on Saturday afternoons watching Auburn Football, goofing off and having a few cold ones.
Bonnie Pascal
Bridesmaid
After both finishing masters programs at UVA and moving to Atlanta within weeks of each other, Bonnie and Katelyn became inseparable. They have enjoyed watching UVA baseball and basketball National Championships together (Wahoowa!) and have won 4 Intermural Dodgeball championships of their own! From wine nights to trips to Spain, these two friends have shared all kinds of adventures.
Zach Braun
Groomsman
Zach and Chad met in college and became great friends when they accidentally became neighbors in Buckhead. They hung out every day and even had a standing Thursday night Mexican food tradition that Chad would love to re-instate. Zach and Chad enjoy so many things together, but their favorite are Saturday golf adventures and seeing how many holes they can get in before their significant others start calling. Zach is Chad's go-to for words of wisdom and admires what a great husband and father he is. Chad stood up with Zach on his wedding day and now it's his turn!
Jessi Jaeger
Bridesmaid
Katelyn and Jessi have been friends since early in high school where they both played on the varsity softball team (Katelyn at second base and Jessi at right field). Their type A personalities made them great co-captains and not much has changed since then! Katelyn can always count on Jessi to organize anything from a last minute girls night to a 7 day trip to Peru. Despite being far apart, after being friends for nearly 14 years when they do get to see each other it’s like no time has passed.
Andrew Washburn
Groomsman
Andrew and Chad have been friends since they stood next to each other in every pledge lineup at Auburn. During college they developed a bond over late night study sessions and Auburn Football - including the time Chad threw Andrew in the air in Jordan Hare Stadium to celebrate an Auburn touchdown. Andrew's failed attempts to tackle Chad are still some of Chad's fondest memories of him. Chad wishes Andrew was still in Atlanta so they could enjoy game days and spending time together more often.
Jennifer Delman
Bridesmaid
Jenn is a friend Katelyn can always count on. After meeting in PT school they have road tripped to Florida and Auburn on last minute whims and Katelyn even convinced Jenn to run a half-marathon with her that Jenn hadn’t trained for! They’ve competed together in Peachtree Road Races and Savage races and in most of their pictures together you’ll see ponytails and sweat but lots of smiles. Jenn is luckily always willing to patch up Katelyn’s injuries and join her for a movie night and Indian food too.
Robert Gordon
Groomsman
Rob and Chad's story began with them as KA pledge brothers at Auburn. The first day they met they instantly became best buds and were immediately inseparable. One of Chad's favorite memories was when Rob invited him to his family's home on Ono Island in Orange Beach, making Chad feel like a member of the family. Rob and Chad always manage to have a good time, no matter what the circumstances. Chad is forever thankful for the memories made and lost.
Camille Croy
Bridesmaid
Cami and Katelyn have been inseparable since the beginning of PT school. When Katelyn was Cami’s maid of honor she told Cami that all she wanted was a date to Cami’s wedding. Chad came around not long after Cami and Ryan got engaged and easily proved his worth as a great wedding date. Cami’s husband Ryan is now one of Chad’s best friends and groomsmen! Katelyn is so thankful for her kind, thoughtful and dependable friend Cami.
Ryan Croy
Groomsman
Ryan "Big Ryan" Croy and Chad became friends through Katelyn and Ryan's wife, Cami. They met three years ago and on that day Chad knew that Ryan was going to become one of his closest friends. They bonded over their love of SEC football, despite the constant disappointment Tennessee is to Ryan. Chad admires Ryan for his kindness and selflessness, and Chad enjoys blaming Ryan for all UPS shipping issues.
Alexis Theuring
Bridesmaid
Katelyn and Lexi quickly became friends in PT school, often laughing that they looked enough alike to be sisters except for the height difference! Despite now being all the way in California, Lexi is always there for Katelyn no matter how big or small the moment. Lexi is always the life of the party, full of laughs, and has been known to dive for a bouquet toss. Katelyn can’t wait to get Lexi back on the east coast where she’s so missed!
Tyler Henderson
Groomsman
Tyler and Chad have been friends since in high school. Chad had his first beer at Tyler's house and Tyler was one of the first friends Chad brought Katelyn to meet when he brought her to LaGrange for the first time. Tyler, Chad and Zack always make it a point to spend time together like the good ole' days. Chad is forever grateful for their friendship and all of the memories they have made over the years.
Eiland, Ellison& Bailey Duncan
Flower Girls
Chad's three nieces make the most beautiful flower girls and we are so excited to have them there with us on our big day!
Sadie Corridon Whitlock
Ring Bearer
Chad teases Katelyn that he fell in love with Sadie first, but can you blame him? Chad and Katelyn both love their fur baby and it was only right that she join them on their big day!
