Wedding Party

Meet our family and friends who are walking down the aisle with us

Danielle Friesen

Maid of Honor

What started off as coworkers quickly grew into an inseparable bond of friendship and family. Dana is someone I can always count on. Whether we are heading to an event for my son or we are off to travel to new places, she is always down for the ride! Dana has a heart of gold and I am so lucky to call her my best friend. I am so honored to stand next to her and Dan on such a momentous day for them. Cheers to their happily ever after!


Brad Barnwell

Best Man

My name is Brad Barnwell and I am Dan’s best man and older brother. I met Dan when my mom gave birth to him in 1991. I live in Durham, North Carolina with my wife, Julie, our dog Oscar, and Rookie the cat. How long does this bio need to be? Should I talk about how annoying Dan was as a younger brother? How awesome of a younger brother he is now? All the broken bones and trips to the ER, or do I save that for the best man’s speech?

Heather Catron

Maid of Honor

I’ve known Dana for the last 8-9 years. I’m lucky enough to call her my right hand gal. We’ve been through it all together. All the moves, covid (where I NEVER left their house) traveling, survivor/big brother nights (gives us an excuse for wine night), and being their roomies for awhile. (What’s alone time?) But I can honestly say all the same things about Dan. Both have huge hearts and would do anything for the people close to them. They’re both not just my best friends but I can honestly say they’re family! I can’t wait for our fur babies to grow old together! And I CANNOT wait to watch these two get hitched! Cheers to forever my humans!


Adam Doty

Groomsman

Hello, I'm Adam. I met Dan through a mutual friend about 10 years ago. We didn't start hanging out until we regularly started gaming together around 4 years later. We have been going out for dinner, drinks and double dates ever since. My wife and I are privileged not only to call Dan a close friend but Dana as well. I am so honored to be a part of an incredible ceremony and the start of a new chapter of Dan and Dana's lives.

Leah Rice

Bridesmaid

I met Dana about 5 years ago through work. I don’t even remember how we became friends so quickly; either bonding over daily work stresses or our mutual love for all things spooky and our dark sense of humor. Dana was there when I first became a mom and never let that change our friendship, she loves Hayden ALMOST as much as I do and I could not be more grateful for someone who cares for my son like she does. FYI, Hayden hates weddings and does not want Dan and Dana to get married due to the fear of them changing so ignore his attitude that day. ❤️


Ryan Rice

Groomsman

Hi All! I'm Ryan and I've had the pleasure of knowing Dan and Dana for a number of years. First meeting Dan back in high school where we both grew up in Mason and then Dana after they started to date. Along with being school mates, Dan and I worked together at Dotloop for about eight years. Throughout all of those years, I've always considered myself incredibly lucky to call them both my friends and I couldn't be happier to see the two of them tie the knot! Looking forward to being a part of the big day!

Ana Fleisher

Bridesmaid

Hey everyone, I’m Ana Fleisher! I met Dan in 2015 when I first started working at dotloop. We became fast friends once I got to know his charming personality. Once I met Dana, it was game over. We’ve all been best friends since. I am so excited to be standing on Dana’s side in this wedding to celebrate the rest of their lives together! I love you both and am so happy for you #danA


David Wolfe

Groomsman

I met Dan after Dana and Dani hit it off in 2018. We quickly realized our shared interest in bourbon and sports! You can find us on double date night, sipping bourbon on my roof or watching a game or Formula 1 racing. I am honored Dan asked me to stand with him when he says "I Do" to his best friend and forever partner, Dana. Congrats to the newest future Barnwells!

For all the days along the way
