Elizabeth & Blake
Wedding Party
Aly Fossett
Maid of Honor
Aly and I have been attached at the hip since our first quarter at Ohio University. She lived down the hall from me in Pickering and we quickly became each other's person at college. Our friendship has always been so natural and easy. She has been a constant in my life over the last decade.
Stephanie Woodruff
Matron of Honor
Stephanie became one of my best friends not by choice, but by force. I forced my way into her life our senior year at OU. She has a vibrant personality I wanted to latch onto. We have grown closer into adulthood and she has become my kindred gossiping, dog mom spirit.
Klare Williamson
Officiant
Klare and I became close through Alpha Delta Pi. We started as roommates in the sorority house and quickly became great friends, rooming together 3 out of the 4 years at OU. We spent many nights up laughing in the dining room, running around Athens or going on diet coke runs, and the fun hasn't stopped.
Mackenzie Johnson
Bridesmaid
I have always looked up to and seemed to follow in Mackenzie's footsteps. We share the same hometown, same college, same sorority, same major, same summer job, same profession...the list goes on. I guess you could say she's my blueprint!
Maggie McHugh
Bridesmaid
Maggie is my longest friend. We became a duo on the first day of 4th grade and have spent the last 18 years getting into trouble. Many phases and stages of life have come and gone, but Maggie's friendship has become a cherished security blanket for me.
Colleen Hile
Bridesmaid
I initially met Colleen as Seth's (groomsman) girlfriend. She has become so much more than a friend's girlfriend. As brand new friends, we made a pact and decided to move to Cleveland together. We were roommates our first year in a new city. The rest is history!
Allison Paglialunga
Bridesmaid
Allison and I spent arguably the craziest year of college living as roommates on the "Top Deck" of the Alpha Delta Pi house. I couldn't begin to recount all the hilarious memories we made together. Although my favorite might be when she tore her ACL jumping into my arms after long awaited reunion.
Hannah Joy
Bridesmaid
Hannah and I spent countless days and nights together during our four years at Ohio University. She was such a quick and true friendship for me. Anyone that knows her would tell you, she has a way to make you feel warm and loved right off the bat.
Rosie Ankrom
Bridesmaid
Rosie came into my life when she and my brother fell in love. I always wanted a sister, and Rosie is about as good as they come. We naturally became close. Now I have a sister that shares the same sense of humor and love for TikTok!
Grace Adkins
Bridesmaid
Similar to Elizabeth and Sam's relationship, I felt the need to protect and always be there for Grace when we were growing up. Growing up with two brothers and the roughhousing that occurred throughout her childhood, I'm extremely lucky she will now have a sister figure like Elizabeth.
Colton Adkins
Best Man
Colton and I were best buds from the beginning. We shared birthday parties, a room that had bunk beds, and countless memories playing. Colton is one of the most loyal and generous people on this planet. I'm lucky to have him as a brother, and my best man.
Seth Brown
Groomsman
Seth and I first met at Worthingway Middle School and became quick friends. Throughout the years we have created so many priceless memories from constantly making a Family Guy references, to living together in Tremont here in Cleveland. And now, we even work together!
Mark DiSanza
Groomsman
As the new kid to Worthington in sixth grade, Mark was quick to take me under his wing. I have him to thank for a lot of my friendships and unforgettable memories growing up. I'm really fortunate to have him as one of my longest friends.
Sam Ankrom
Groomsman
Being Sam's big sister was the first job I ever had that I knew I was good at. He was my first friend and playmate and I loved being his "mini-mom". He and Blake share so many interests that sometimes now I'm the one left out of conversations and weekend plans (golf...no thanks) but I wouldn't have it any other way.
Patrick Cain
Groomsman
Pat and I met junior year at Ohio Wesleyan on the SigEp stoop. He just transferred from a small school from Maryland, being a fellow pitcher, we got along pretty quick. Pat, Collin, and I ended up living together our senior year which was easily the best year during my time at Ohio Wesleyan.
Collin Finn
Groomsman
Collin and I grew up playing baseball since middle school all the way through college. Anytime I needed a catcher for a bullpen over the summer or long toss partner, he would answer the call. He is no doubt one of the kindest people I know and about as calm, cool, and collected as they come. Even when he duffs a chip on the golf course.
Ryan Ossenbeck
Groomsman
Being pitchers, Ryan and I spent a lot of time in the bullpen talking about nonsense or the debauchery that happened the night before at the baseball house. Our friendship continued to grow as time went on and as our football teams continued to crush our hopes every Sunday in the fall.
Jon Harnett
Groomsman
When I met Jon my freshman year at Ohio Wesleyan, I found out no one really calls him 'Jon'. He was introduced as Reuben! If it wasn't for his guidance and willingness to help, I might not have gotten my foot in the door with the Cleveland Browns. Reuben is one of a kind.
