Emily & Anthony
Wedding Party
Kristen Pellegrin
Maid of Honor
Kristen was Emily’s first friend. They have been friends since they were 3 years old when they met at Mother’s Day Out. They could tell you countless ridiculous stories about Beanie Babies, dress up, and make believe. Truth be told, they both still like to play dress up. Fun fact about Kristen: She loves food. Maybe even more than Emily, which is hard to believe. She will eat anything, except one tiny thing… rice.
Jeremy Fisher
Best Man
Jeremy and Anthony met in college. They used to regularly run the Happy’s 5k before Fisher moved to Charlotte. Neither of them are winning any races, but they always had a good time, and maybe a beer or two. Fun fact about Jeremy: No one calls him Jeremy. He’s just Fisher to everyone.
Robin Breazeale
Bridesmaid
Robin and Emily did not know each other, but decided to jump into the car together as Sophomores in college and drive to Texas together. They have been inseparable ever since. Crazy adventures to the day-to-day they have done it all. Their favorite thing is still champagne lunch. Fun fact about Robin: She may be small but she’s scrappy! Watch out!
Andy Arnold
Groomsman
Andy and Anthony have known each other since college and lived together while they both finished postgraduate degrees. Before Andy married his wife Allyson, he asked Anthony to come with him to China when he met Allyson’s extended family for the first time. This adventure led to Anthony leaving his passport at an Einstein Bagel. Ask him to tell you the story one day Fun fact about Andy: He’s from Lufkin, which is less fun than one would think.
Jill Wilbert
Bridesmaid
Jill complimented Emily on her Clueless style feather pen in English class Freshman year of high school. The rest is history. They have shared so many great travels and good times, a list would be impossible to make. Fun fact about Jill: She’s always ready for party, even last minute. You got tickets to a black tie event today for tonight and need a date? Jill is always your girl!
Will Hennegan
Groomsman
Will and Anthony met in college. He is currently trying to talk Anthony into installing a pool, which Emily hates. Anthony is always looking for a reason to visit Will and Robin in Houston. And while Anthony thinks Will and Robin are great what he is really looking forward to is taking their son Patrick to the Houston Natural History Museum! Fun fact about Will: He still owns a CB and enjoys using it.
Metin Ahiskali
Bridesman
Metin and Emily met at what they affectionately call “Nerd Camp” before starting their Senior year of high school. They kept up in touch through AIM and free nights and weekends. While distance has always separated them, they have never let that get in the way of being the closest of friends. Fun fact about Metin: He loves terrible movies as much as Emily does. The Fast and the Furious franchise of films is always a MUST watch when they get together!
Josh Anderson
Groomsman
Josh and Anthony met in college. Josh is Anthony’s hook up for duck hunting and his most frequent beer-brewing companion. They often find themselves sitting outside enjoying those beers and discussing the good things about life. Fun fact about Josh: He was a radio DJ in high school and speaks French.
Kelly Andrus
Officiant
Kelly is Emily’s brother. Several years ago some friends of his asked him to officiate their wedding. Turns out, he is pretty good at it, as he has done it a few times since then. When Emily got engaged, it was never even a question of who would perform the ceremony. Fun fact about Kelly: His favorite chant is “Fire it up!” because it can’t rain all the time.
Riley Ahiskali
Flower Girl
Riley may live in Delaware, but that girl loves a parade. She and her family come to visit Baton Rouge for the best day of the year, The Wearing of the Green! Fun fact about Riley: She’s already a tiger. Not an LSU tiger, but we are getting there.
Jack Smith
Ring Bearer
Jack is Anthony’s nephew and godson. Jack is a big fan of Dog Man, Diary of a Wimpy Kid, and most other (good) books, just like his uncle! Fun fact about Jack: He is missing BOTH of his front teeth!
Joey Grace Smith
Flower Girl
Joey Grace is Anthony’s niece. She enjoys the outdoors, all creatures great, small, and fluffy, and cleaning her and everyone around her’s plates. Fun fact about Joey Grace: She loves vegetables! It makes her day when her Mom or Dad brings home a veggie tray from the grocery store.
Adele Breazeale
Flower Girl
While Robin always insists that Adele is HER child, Emily is not so sure. She loves sequins, unicorns, and dress up almost as much as Honey (this is what most kids in Emily’s life call her)! Fun fact about Adele: She has a little crush on Mr. Anthony…
Beau Breazeale
Ring Bearer
Beau is Emily’s godson. He’s perfect. Don’t try to tell her otherwise. His favorite foods are sugar and carbs. Fun fact about Beau: He shared his marshmallow once with Honey and it is possible to greatest act of love she has ever experienced.
