Wedding Party
Elena Bedel
Maid of Honor
"My favorite memory with Katie was watching us become so close freshman year of college. I had no idea the kind of friendship we were missing out on all those years growing up."
Ryan Bovard
Best Man
“I’m Ryan, and I’m proud to stand beside my brother Zach on one of the biggest days of his life. Over the years, we’ve shared plenty of adventures and memories that shaped who we are today. Seeing Zach and Katie together, I’ve never been more confident in two people that are meant to be together, and I couldn’t be happier to celebrate their love and the life they’re building. I’m very proud of the man my brother has become, and I couldn’t be happier to see Zach and Katie grow together.”
Cece Larrazabal
Bridesmaid
“I met Katie during a history class at Butler and we instantly became friends. That same year we both lived in the sorority house, and she quickly became one of my best friends. We’ve now been roommates for five years and I honestly don’t know what I’ll do without her when she moves in with Zach. I have way too many favorite memories to count, but some of my favorites with Katie and Zach are the late nights talking about everything from Zach’s vacuum job to all the sports we played growing up!”
Luke Bovard
Groomsman
“I'm Zach's youngest brother and one of my favorite memories of Zach is playing wiffleball with him when we were kids.”
Chloe Janssen
Bridesmaid
"Katie and I met sophomore year at Butler when we lived in the sorority house. We spent lots of time together studying in Holcomb and I was always in her Tri Delta room or at her senior house. The biggest thing I admire about Zach and Katie is that they are #gymcouplegoals, lifting and running half marathons together!"
Nolan Dieselberg
Groomsman
“I am Zach’s cousin, also known as the undisputed favorite cousin. My favorite memories with Zach were all the countless weekends I would spend at their house growing up playing wiffle ball, Wii, fishing, and a lot more. It feels like yesterday when we were just kids and now we’re all grown up. Can’t wait to celebrate them two becoming one.”
Maria Geis
Bridesmaid
"I am Katie's second cousin, so we have always known each other, but we really became close in intermediate school when we rode the bus together! I really admire Zach and Katie's dedication to each other and respect that they have for each other. A fun fact about me: I love gardening, hiking, & collecting antiques."
Matthew Doll
Groomsman
"I am the brother of the bride. After nearly a decade together, it's safe to say Katie and Zach are definitely built for whatever life throws at them!"
Ellie Strotman
Bridesmaid
"Some of my happiest childhood memories with Katie are the beach vacations together: building drip castles, tie dying t-shirts, and swimming with stingrays and dolphins. Those days remain some of the best memories we share."
Michael Doll
Groomsman
“Fun fact about me is that I am the youngest of the four siblings. I admire their commitment to each other.”
