Danielle & Spencer
Wedding Party
Danielle
Bride
Danielle was born in the Windy City. After moving around the country, she arrived in Vancouver, Washington, hungry for success (and oreos). Immediately, she started to thrive, meeting two of her future bridesmaids, achieving her AA while attending high school, and joining her high school cross country team with zero running desire or experience. After a brief stint at the University of Washington, she took her talents south to Oregon State. An engineer by trade, Danielle spends her days getting swag apparel out to the masses in a timely fashion. When not working, she can be found baking, hiking, and trying to beat Spencer's sudoku times. At the wedding, you can find her at the front of the ceremony.
Spencer
Groom
Spencer was born in Portland. His parents knew he was going to be a handful from an early age due to details that cannot be shared in an online forum. Spencer was raised in Vancouver and lived in the same house his whole life, but you'd know that from looking at his room decor. After graduating high school, Spencer spent a regrettable three years in Tacoma going to school. He then went to Chicago for grad school and Ann Arbor for law school. Spencer is emotionally damaged, having watched his beloved Oregon Ducks every week in the fall. When not working as a lawyer, Spencer can be found watching sports, looking at pugs, and pumping iron in the gym. At the wedding, Spencer can be found at the dessert table.
Tiffany
Maid of Honor
Danielle has a very distinct memory of meeting Tiffany on the Chinook Elementary playground in 4th grade. It was not until 5th grade, however, that these chronic overachievers really hit it off as their class schedules aligned with each other. Their friendship continued to grow all to the soundtrack of the mix CD Tiffany made Danielle consisting of Taylor Swift, Backstreet Boys, and Disney musicals. These two friends have been at it long enough to know each person is a phone call and one play of "Our Song" away. When not asking for money for UW's nursing program, Tiffany can be found making cards, retweeting gymnastics twitter highlights, and tagging her close friends in Instagram giveaways. At the wedding, Tiffany can be found keeping the wedding on schedule; despite Danielle's protests.
Gregg
Best Man
Spencer and Gregg met in law school. They didn't like each other at first: Spencer disliked Gregg's cheerful attitude; Gregg disliked how Spencer wore a tank top everywhere. They learned to overlook their character flaws and forged a relationship that Danielle and Natalie (Gregg's wife) became jealous of. Their relationship reached new heights on a cross-country trip from Michigan to Washington. When not promoting economic freedom for large corporations, Gregg can be found listening to live music, eating cheese steak sandwiches, and instilling discipline in his dog Clovis. At the wedding, Gregg can be found reliving his fraternity days.
Morgan
Bridesmaid
Morgan blessed Danielle with her presence on a rainy February day in Mrs. Anderson's class. Though they attended different middle and high schools, they maintained their friendship through church small groups and summer camps. After finishing grad school and interviewing for a job in Vancouver, Morgan called Danielle asking her to be her roommate. Despite their different personalities (Middle School teacher and an Engineer), they wouldn't have quarantined with anyone else. When not influencing the youth of today, Morgan can be found bowling with her team, scouring the home decor section at Marshalls, and forgetting the coffee she made that morning in the kitchen. At the wedding, Morgan can be found with a glass of red wine in hand, shaking her head at Spencer's obscene jokes.
Laurence
Groomsman
Spencer met Dr. Laurence Batmazian, J.D. M.D. in law school. Dr. Batmazian lived with Spencer for 1.5 years of law school and they bonded over being the most normal people in the house (which is very alarming). Dr. Batmazian taught Spencer about the wonders of Canada and its tasty Pocky; Spencer taught Dr. Batmazian about American healthcare. When Dr. Batmazian is not busy saving lives, he can be found watching reality T.V., taking 45 minute showers, and reading reviews on the best credit cards. At the wedding, Dr. Batmazian can be found drinking moscato with the bride.
Haley
Bridesmaid
Danielle met Haley at the University of Washington. During her sophomore year, Danielle lived in an all Christian girl's house. At the meet and greet for the residents, Danielle met Haley. What followed was a year of friendship built over an overconsumption of Oreos, lamenting over their respective academic experiences, and providing input on their other roommate's love lives. Despite living thousands of miles apart, their friendship continued to grow with regular trips. When not outfitting NYC with sustainable fashion, Haley can be found walking her dog, playing tourist with her out of town guests, and going to bed early after watching a rom-com. At the wedding, Haley can be found looking longingly at the dessert table, cursing her gluten intolerance.
Chuck
Groomsman
Spencer met Chuck in law school. Spencer and Chuck became fast friends: going on a boy's trip to Cincinnati, celebrating Chuck's victory as law student representative, and participating in a debate club. Spencer and Danielle were able to celebrate at Chuck's wedding, so they are excited that Chuck and his wife will be able to celebrate at theirs. When not receiving shifty calls at work, Chuck can be found making memes, sipping on tequila, and posting on Reddit. At the wedding, Chuck can be found editing his novel, which will be available for sale soon at your local bookstore.
Elise
Bridesmaid
Elise is Danielle's sister. Growing up, Danielle loved bossing Elise and her other siblings around. Their relationship, however, was especially close as they shared a room together. Over the years, they have watched each other succeed academically. Danielle takes personal credit for Elise also pursing a career in engineering. When not consulting on engineering matters, Elise can be found cooking food for her friends, watching Anime, and ordering miscellaneous items from Amazon. At the wedding, Elise can be found people watching all the wedding guests.
Winston
Groomsman
Winston is Spencer's older brother. Winston works as an athletic trainer for Oregon State, mentoring the next generation of football players. Spencer and Winston's relationship blossomed when Spencer lived in Winston's apartment in Corvallis. Together they bonded over the lack of air conditioning and smoked meat on the Traeger. When not working as an athletic trainer, he can be found playing Pokemon, hiking mountains, and drinking wine. At the wedding, you can find Winston providing his recommendations on the wine and beer.
