Maid of Honor
Kathleen and Taryn met on the soccer field and have been inseparable ever since. Kath and Taryn have lived a million lives together - from their hometown in Massachusetts, to the Colorado mountains when they lived in Boulder, then to the PNW forests - and out of Taryn's Jeep for a month roadtripping - these two have had one heck of a time living it up and have stories for ages.
Bridesmaid
Kristin and Taryn met in Boulder in 2016. They refer to each other as platonic soul mates and have a unique bond that has kept them best friends through the years although they live apart. Taryn and Kristin share a love of epic outdoor adventures, riverside beers, late night dance parties, and traveling as much as they can together.
Bridesmaid
Kristen is Taryn's younger sister and godmother of her son, Casey. Growing up they were 4 years apart, but as they got older they developed a sisterhood that became more like best friends. Kristen and Taryn are close sisters that have spent a lot of life seeing music together, skiing, and spending time with each other as much as possible even though they live on opposite coasts!
Bridesmaid
Taryn went to high school with Sarah and met while playing lacrosse. Sarah also moved to Boulder, Colorado, so fortunately they were able to become close friends through those college years - Sarah famously would sleep on Taryn's couch after fun nights out, a lot! Partners in crime is an understatement to describe the relationship of these two, and they love to be the life of their own party :)
Bridesmaid
Maria is Taryn's youngest sister. Maria was just a toddler when Taryn was growing up but they grew close through the years getting older. Taryn is extremely lucky to have a sister like Maria - she TRULY light up the room, is loyal, kind, and so much fun to be around. Taryn and Maria laugh non stop while together and share a lot of adulthood memories making inside jokes and creating music.
Officiant
Taryn and Parker worked together in Portland and quite literally asked each other to be friends the day they met. Parker is a huge part of Taryn's life in the PNW, and they have been lucky to experience a lot of life's milestones together. You can find the two of them together laughing to no end at dive bars, dancing on the river while fly fishing, and now hanging out with their babies together. Parker has one of the best senses of humor and an otherworldly charisma - so naturally, she is the honored officiant.
Ring Bearer
Casey is Taryn and Dave's son who will be the ring bearer. But a mere 9 months at the time of the post he is still learning the ways of the world but loves his mom and dad so much. He can't wait to be apart of their big day!
Best Man
From early high school to late 20’s we’ve been eachothers biggest assholes and best friends. Making sure we occasionally check in and if we’re in the same town we’re probably together drinking, golfing, disc golfing, pickle balling, bowling or just finding something to do. He’s my biggest turd. Herb turd

My fuel to being more competitive, if there’s something to compete in. We’re throwing down, we’re probably pretty close to even on betting for ourselves against each other, and I wouldn’t want it any other way. We can party and let loose together, shirts off we’re the life of the party you want to be apart of.
Groomsman
What haven’t we done together? We have a music festival, Mexico trip, splitting a boat. Dozens of rounds of golf. And a lot of drunken nights. The friend you want when you’re in a bar. Never know he could break the ice with the love of your life, and you bring her home.
Groomsman
The quickest click, from meeting at a music festival we partied all day only to find out he was roommates with Avery. From multiple golf trips and hours of playing video games, and many more of both to come he’s my guy.

Go on an odyssey. Read a self help book. He’ll help you figure it out.
