Wedding Party
Sarah Hays
Maid of Honor
Sarah met Sarah in preschool at The Gagie School, and that’s when "Sarah C and Sarah H" came to be—the names they still call each other today. They've been best friends for 27 years.
Kyle Blankenship
Best Man
Kyle and Chris met playing hockey in Chicago and built a strong friendship over the 10 years they spent living in the city together.
Allison Stevens
Bridesmaid
Allison and Sarah met in their dorm building as freshmen at the University of Michigan, and have since mastered the art of long-distance best friendship across several cities.
Dillon Reid
Groomsman
Dillon and Chris met playing hockey in Chicago. In an unsurprising turn of events, Chris is now Dillon's boss.
Laura Sweatman
Bridesmaid
Laura and Sarah met as freshmen in high school and went on to attend the University of Michigan together, where they lived together all four years.
Reed Hays
Groomsman
Reed and Chris met at MIT and have since become inseparable golf partners. They’re known to frequent member-guests, often showing up in unconventional outfits.
Natalie Shaffer
Bridesmaid
Natalie and Sarah met at the University of Michigan and lived together for junior & senior year. They later deepened their friendship during three fun years living in Chicago.
Kyle Creyts
Groomsman
Kyle is Chris’s older brother. They share traumatic childhood memories of dual rat-tail haircuts that were occasionally braided on vacations (thanks Mom).
Macy Christ
Bridesmaid
Macy is married to Sarah's brother, Andrew. While family may be what first brought them together, they have become best friends and sisters in every sense of the word.
Andrew Christ
Groomsman
Andrew is Sarah’s older brother—though to her, he’ll always be “Andy.” She’s always looked up to him, as shown by her life choices that mirror his (nursing school, moving to Nashville, then to Chicago).
Sophie Christ
Bridesmaid
Sophie is married to Sarah’s brother, Jon. Though they became sisters-in-law by chance, they quickly formed a bond that grew into a close friendship and sisterhood.
Jon Christ
Groomsman
Jon is Sarah’s older brother. Their sibling journey got off to a bumpy start thanks to sharing a bathroom for 16 years, despite this, they've grown very close in adulthood and share a strong bond today.
Penny Christ
Flower Girl
Penny, the daughter of Andrew and Macy Christ, is Sarah’s first niece. The wedding will take place during her 2nd birthday weekend, and we’re so grateful she’ll be celebrating with Aunt Sarah and Uncle Chris—helping to throw petals and do one of her favorite things: blow bubbles.
Henry Creyts
Ring Bearer
Henry is son to Kyle and Megan Creyts. Uncle Chris and Aunt Sarah are thrilled to have Henry's help on the big day.
