Marcy Schaeffer-Allred

Matron of Honor

Sister of the Bride Marcy is Ember's older sister. 11 years apart, and many people know Marcy as Ember's second Mom. Marcy has brought Ember on dates when she was young, taught her how to put on makeup, and the ins and outs of what makes reality tv so good. She’s also one of the smartest random fact knower when it comes to trivia, from politics to the latest celebrity gossip, Marcy is a force to be reckoned with when it comes to Jeopardy. Thanks to Marcy, Ember has taken "In her Shoes" to the next level known for stealing Marcy's shoes, could that be Ember's something borrowed?


Joshua Schaeffer

Groomsman

Brother of the Bride Joshua has always looked at Ember as his very little sister. It is hard to believe she is all grown up. Joshua babysat Ember when she was little, and well, her love for Adam Sandler and Jim Carey and her major dislike for peas, is all thanks to her big brother Josh. Josh is a master at technology and a jack of all trades. All Patrick and Ember had to say is that they wanted a computer one day, and by the weekend Josh had built one for them. Josh is so excited for Patrick and Ember and cannot wait to be part of their special day.

Kara Traub

Maid of Honor

Kara is Ember's best friend. Kara and Ember took a trip to Israel in 7th grade, and it was there where the two have not left each other's side. Going through middle school and high school together, they were known to be Frick and Frack, always getting in trouble for talking and laughing during class. The two have a different language with one another, and that's what makes these two best friends. Kara went to Towson University and stayed in Maryland while Ember went to Temple and stayed in Philly, however every weekend Ember could get, Ember traveled down to Maryland to see Kara. Kara introduced Patrick and Ember in 2015 when Ember came to visit. A perfect match thanks to Kara <3


Samuel Bollinger

Best Man

Childhood best friend of the Groom Sam and Patrick have known each other since 2nd grade, and well, they've been pretty much inseparable for almost two decades. There is not a day that goes by that Patrick doesn't think about how great the summers were growing up, as the two would spend every day swimming and nights up playing video games (that hasn't changed too much as they grew up). Patrick can't imagine anyone else standing by his side on his big day.

Natalie Weintraub

Bridesmaid

Cousin of the Bride Partners in crime. Growing up Natalie and Ember were always together. After every family occasion there was always a follow-up sleepover with Mickey Mouse grilled cheeses and Bubbeleh for breakfast. Natalie always let her little cousin Ember tag along to hangout with her friends. Natalie has always had a way with words, and has written Ember many poems including one called a Value of A Cousin, "Now in life we have choices, some people choose to make a cousin just a relative, but I choose to make mine my bestfriend."


Anthony Barkley

Groomsman

College Best Friend Anthony is not only Patrick's college best friend, he is also his old roommate, and the one that was with Patrick when he met Ember for the very first time. While Anthony lived with Patrick, he slowly saw how Ember went from once a month visits in Baltimore to weekly 4 day weekend visits. From late nights in Federal Hill, to all night Mario Party sessions, Anthony and Patrick always have the best time together.

Ali Weintraub

Bridesmaid

Cousin of the Bride Not only ring bearer Logan's mommy, Ali is also Ember's cousin and bridesmaid Natalie's younger sister. Growing up it was always tug of war between Natalie's room and Ali's room. Ember loved all of the attention when she went to her cousin's house with a family of 6 kids. Ember and Ali cannot leave the house without at least 5 outfit checks with one another. The two always need a selfie at every family occasion and know how to pose on command. Ali will look picture perfect with Ember on the big day.


Ravi Robinson

Groomsman

Cousin of the Groom Ravi is more than an Paramedic, he is a woodworker, and death metal aficionado. Patrick and Ravi have always bonded over music and have gone to countless concerts together. Ravi knew it must be serious with Patrick and Ember when Ember agreed to go see a Dillinger Escape Plan Concert with a mosh pit and all. Ravi has always watched out for Patrick and has been more than a cousin, he has been more like a brother. Patrick could not be happier than to have his big cousin by his side.

Gabby Allred

Jr. Bridesmaid

Niece of the Bride Gabby is Ember's oldest niece. Gabby and Ember enjoy doing their nails together and bonding over the latest Tik Tok dance trend. You can definitely expect Gabby and Ember Tik Toking on the wedding day. Ember cannot wait to get all glammed up with her oldest niece and have her by her side.


Giris Robinson

Groomsman

Cousin of the Groom Giris and Patrick have a love for athletics and enjoy a "friendly" competition with one another. Ember may always lose at Kan Jam and not know how to throw a frisbee, no matter how many time Giris teaches her, but Giris is excited that Patrick found his match. Plus now he has plenty of time to get Ember up to speed on frisbee throwing.

Piper Smith

Jr. Bridesmaid

Cousin of the Groom Piper is full of pranks and smiles. At ever family occasion she will sneak up behind you and surprise you. If it is during the August Birthday Cookout at Poppy's, you can bet she is trying to throw watermelon on Patrick, an old family tradition. Ember and Patrick are thrilled to have Piper part of their big day!


Nick Allred

Jr. Groomsman

Nephew of the Bride The oldest of Ember's nieces and nephews, Nick is always outside playing some sort of sport whether it is basketball or baseball.

Ryan Allred

Jr. Groomsman

Nephew of the Bride Youngest nephew of Ember, Ryan is the chef of the family. He enjoys cooking and being part of all the latest adult gossip. If you want the inside scoop on anyone, Ryan is your guy. His jokes and laughter light up a room, and you can count on that at the wedding.


Erin Allred

Jr. Bridesmaid

Niece of the Bride Spunky is the word to describe Ember's youngest niece. Erin is always out and about looking for the next task to help with. From sous chef in the kitchen with her brothers and sister, to being out on the ball field running the bases. Erin will be bringing the energy to the wedding.

Logan Benner

Ring Bearer

Cousin of the Bride Little Logan is bridesmaid Ali's son. He enjoys Paw Patrol, waffles, and his four-wheeler.
