Ellie & Andy
Wedding Party
Julia Goodin
Maid of Honor
Julia and I have been best friends ever since I found out she lived right next door to my grandparents. She is quite literally part of the Barrett family, and I couldn't imagine life without her. Julia is my go to for anything and everything, and I feel so lucky to have her by my side through life and my wedding!
Rosie Barrett
Maid of Honor
Rosie is my youngest sister and baby of the family. She is probably the strongest person I know, as it takes a lot to be the youngest of 5! Rosie will do big things in the future, I'm very confident of that.
Katie Barrett
Bridesmaid
Katie is my oldest sister and biggest role model in faith, teaching, and almost anything in life! She has been a great example for not just me, but for all of my siblings as we all navigate through life together. Her kind and genuine heart make people gravitate towards her, which is something that inspires me every day!
Annie Barrett
Matron of Honor
Annie is my second oldest sister and someone I go to for everything. She's helped me through so many different aspects of my life, simply because that's part of her selfless personality. Annie is always there to help me with anything I need and any adventure I want to go on!
Savannah Meiss
Bridesmaid
Sav has been my best friend since freshman year of high school. I am so thankful for her easy-going, carefree self. She is one of the funniest people I have ever met...you will never have a dull moment with Sav!
Maddie Hill
Bridesmaid
Maddie is one of my older cousins but also one of my best friends. I am so lucky I have someone in my family who I'm so close with. Her calm, silly personality is contagious. Maddie is someone who will be with you every step of the way, and will make you laugh any time she's with you!
Anna Moore
Bridesmaid
Anna is my younger cousin, but someone I've looked up to to better me in my faith journey. She is such a bright light in this world and I am so excited to see her grow up and become an even more amazing woman than she already is!
Gretchen Moore
Bridesmaid
I am blessed with an amazing family, including my beautiful cousin, Gretchen! She is a loving person filled with so much joy. Everyone needs a fun-loving and easy-going friend like Gretchen.
Tom Ohlman
Best Man
Tom and I ran together in middle school and high school and now coach cross country and track together at Guerin Catholic. We are often thought of as a package deal - I've showed up to certain events before knowing in advance that I would be asked where Tom was. He is incredibly loyal and dependable, with a caring heart and is always putting others before himself.
Eddie Stage
Best Man
Eddie and I have been best friends since before I was in elementary school. He lived across the street and was always playing basketball in the driveway (wearing a Reggie Miller jersey). Eddie is the older brother I never had - I spent most of my childhood trying to emulate him. I look up to him for his determination, drive and great sense of humor.
Joe Barrett
Groomsman
Joe is Ellie's brother. He and I met during his junior track season at Guerin Catholic when I began coaching there. He is the type of person that other people gravitate towards - for his humor, authenticity and ability to bring others up. I used to be able to drop him in workouts with ease, have since lost all bragging rights and could not hold a candle to his current running fitness.
Kyle Brinkworth
Groomsman
Kyle is Ellie's brother in law and someone I've grown close to the past 3 years. I admire his caring nature, his work ethic, and his willingness to put up with the Barrett family's many attempts to turn him into a runner. I'm looking forward to following in Kyle's footsteps and finally being admitting to the Barrett family group chat after the wedding.
David Crull
Groomsman
David and I met in middle school at church and ran cross country and track together in middle school and high school. He is someone that I aspired to be more like growing up. I admire his work ethic, patience, wisdom and the love he has for his family and friends.
Jake Cowen
Groomsman
Jake is the greatest brother in the world. We have been to Chick-Fil-A, Fazolis or Freddy's hundreds of times together for "Guy Night" - a Thursday night tradition for the past 10 years. Jake loves pretending he's the lead pastor at church or hosting game shows like Wheel-of-Fortune. As my high school cross country coach says "to know him is to love him".
Sam Stage
Groomsman
I've known Sam since the day he was born. He is Eddie's younger brother and has been great friends with my brother Jake since they are the same age. Sam and I grew closer when he was at a high school and I was coaching him in cross country and track. He is very driven, is always is making those around him laugh and constantly coming up with new ideas.
Noah Norris
Groomsman
Noah and I met at work where we used to sit next to each other. It wasn't long before we grew close and shared a love for Jesus and pulling pranks in the office. He is younger than me, but someone I've always looked up to for his wisdom, contagious laugh and willingness to serve others.
