Erin & Joe
Bridal Party
Kaitlin Voller
Maid of Honor
Erin's cousin and best friend since birth. They even share a birthday. Kaitie lives in Indianapolis with husband Nic, son Declan, and dog Nash. She has a law degree and is always ready to start a party. If lost, you can probably find her at the closest Dunkin' Donuts.
Mallory Kaehr
Bridesmaid
Mal for short, she's Erin's main squeeze. Mal is from Indy but currently lives in Lexington, Kentucky as she spends her better hours studying to become a lawyer. If you find yourself needing a Jennifer Lawrence lookalike, she’s your gal.
Victoria Trusty
Bridesmaid
Tori is one of Erin's best friends from college and co-survivor of the sorority life. She lives in Nashville, TN with husband Keith, son Nash, and dog Dixie. Tori is currently studying to get her MBA while also working as the Creative Coordinator in the Ag department for the state.
Sarah Goode
Bridesmaid
Sarah is Erin's sister-in-law and fellow cheese lover. She is married to Erin's brother Bob and is dog mom to Sir. She is from the Indy area as well and is currently finishing her PhD in clinical psychology.
Cole Cameron
Best Man
The guy in the wedding party who has known Joe the longest (since 3rd grade!), only Cole can match Joe's passion for Mizzou sports and hatred for kU. Side by side they have sat through countless Mizzou sports heartbreaks...and a few high points, such as Mizzou's win in football over #1 Oklahoma where they both rushed the field, helped tear down the goalpost, and carry it out of the stadium downtown to Harpos. Thankfully, outside of Mizzou sports, they have shared many fun times together for almost 20 years. It only makes sense that Cole and Joe are side by side once again. Cole currently lives in St. Louis and enjoys long, romantic walks through Forest Park with his dog Max. If you're lucky, he'll give you the address to his hideaway cabin in remote Montana...in case of an apocalypse.
Nate Metzger
Groomsman
Nate and Joe are a freshman year random college roommate success story. From late night halo sessions in the dorms freshman year, to countless flip night Taphouse Tuesdays, to living up one last summer of freedom after graduating from Mizzou, Joe and Nate became great friends throughout their time at Mizzou. While Nate tried to get away from Joe after Mizzou and attend the University of Georgia for grad school, he could only stay away for so long and ended up moving to DC after graduating from UGA. Unfortunately, he has once again moved away, currently living in Seattle with his girlfriend Rachel. Nate is known for his dance moves, and if we're lucky, the DJ will play stanky legg and we can all enjoy a free show.
Dave Galbraith
Groomsman
Dave was one of the first people Joe met when he moved out to Bethesda, MD after graduating from Purdue, and they quickly became great friends. Whether it is going out in DC on a Saturday night, skiing in Colorado, or exploring the breweries in Asheville, NC, Dave and Joe have spent a lot of time together in just a few years. He is one of the most youthful (or maybe immature), 37 year-old's you will meet. "Uncle Dave" just purchased his first home and agreed to let Erin and Joe live in the master suite for free to pay them back for all of the exquisite meals they have cooked for him over the past few years. Oh, and if you ever need help negotiating your cable bill, he is your guy.
Brian Burks
Groomsman
Brian and Joe grew up together, first becoming friends back in middle school. From working together at A.L. Gustin Golf Course throughout high school and college, to living together in college sophomore year, to summertime back road drives in his Jeep which sounds more like a go cart, Joe and Brian have gotten to know each other very well over the years. Joe was also a groomsman in Brian's wedding. Brian still lives on the Southside in CoMo with his wife Hillary, and Erin and Joe always enjoy hanging out with them when they visit Missouri from Bethesda. Brian and Hillary recently celebrated the birth of their first child. We will see if the world can handle another Burks!
Matt Goode
Usher
Matt is Erin's older brother and +1 when it comes to Purdue IU games. He lives in Mooresville, NC and works for Lowes Corporate. Matt likes long walks on the beach and deep conversations, perfect for any single lady out there!
Bob Goode
Usher
Bob, who also answers to Boobs, is Erin's oldest brother and fellow Harry Potter junkie. There was never a question as to what our holiday breaks consisted of. Well, that and somewhat unhealthy IU Purdue rivalry games. Bob is an attorney in Indianapolis with his new wife Sarah and fur baby Sir.
