E & P
Our People
Ashlyn Kurtz
Matron of Honor
Coolest Cousin in the Game. She has been the best role model for Emily and has really filled the role of "big sister". She has permission to be the "Matron of Dishonor". Much love <3
Zach Russell
Best Man
Zach, better known as Gooyah. Pat's big bro and the OG red-bearded Russell. He will be standing right next to Pat on the big day...let's hope he doesn't drop the rings.
Susannah Peck
Maid of Honor
A Sister of Saint Basil. Susannah and Emily have been through it all together. No one can make Emily laugh like she does. There is absolutely no one more suited for this role. Endless love.
Peter Valle
Best Man
Peter Piper 1. The guy who has seen it all- the good, the bad, and the ugly of Emily and Pat. He never waivered... he always agreed with Emily (especially when it came to chicken wings). He will also be standing next to Pat...but we can't trust him with the rings.
Megan Russell
Bridesmaid
SISTERS! Megs is the sister Emily never had and a soon to be Philly girl. Emily is so happy she thinks she is cool enough to hang with. Emily will always think Megan's at least 5 years older than she is. That's a fact.
Ryan Farris
Groomsman
Ry Guy! Emily's little brother and the first guy to order a dirty shirley over the age of 17. Look out for him on the dance floor if Dolly Parton plays. He's workin 9 (pm) to 5 (am) as a new dad and a PGW rookie.
Leah Keefe
Bridesmaid
THIS GIRL IS IT. Best friends of all time for a long time. Leah is the Tommy to Emily's Chuckie; the Barnacle Boy to Emily's Mermaid Man, and so much more. Emily blames Leah for everything weird she did in high school.
Brendan Boehm
Groomsman
B-Rob. Co-Creator of Tub Laundry (TM) and the best painter Pat has ever met. These two goons lived together in Albany, NY in college and we're all surprised to see they made it. Check him out on the dance floor- he'll be the guy in the fedora.
Erin Raleigh
Bridesmaid
Peanut is Emily's heart and soul. Soul sisters from the beginning. We all have Spanish Class Freshman Year to thank. You will never meet a more thoughtful person than Peanut. She keeps the tunes playing and the laughs rolling!
Al Dietrich
Groomsman
Al- the Italian Stallion. Don't be fooled by the profile pic- he's the stallion. This newly-wed is one of Pat's best friends since 1st grade and can offer Pat the best marriage advice out there. Plus- he makes a mean sauce ("gravy").
Caroline Goree
Bridesmaid
EMILY'S BIG! ZLAM her so much. They have such great memories together from college, DC, and beyond. No one can keep up with their wit...except maybe Pat. Fun Fact: Emily used to stay at Caroline's apartment even when she wasn't there.
Tom Henson
Groomsman
Buckets O' Buckets- Pat's Special Boy. They may have a closer relationship than Emily and Pat. If you catch them making out on the dance floor- ignore it. That's just them!
Abigail Rollenhagen
Bridesmaid
Gail the Snail. Her contagious laugh and quirky personality made her and Emily fast friends. She is thoughtful, intelligent, and so much more.... plus she talks with her hands. What's not to love?
Maksim Malukoff
Groomsman
One thing about Max- you will never know if he's kidding or not. This is also one of Pat's best guys since 1st grade. We still don't know what Max does for a living. Supposedly something with "data" and "analytics".
Brittany Matters
Bridesmaid
The VEEP and the GOAT. An unlikely pairing of roommates turned best friends. Brittany is the matching pajama set to Emily's groufit. peace, love, and dominos personal pizzas forever.
Tim Henke
Groomsman
The kid with the million dollar smile (literally). Keep him far away from water fountains and shallow pools. One of the original Rhinebeck boys turned lifelong friends. He holds the record for taking the most unflattering photo of Emily to date. He claims it was an accident....
Shana Harton
Bridesmaid
Emily will admit it...Shana's funnier than her. While Emily may think she had her beat in high school, Shana's stand up comedy tour takes the cake. Shana is so driven and so adventurous and we are lucky to call her a friend.
Dan O'Halloran
Groomsman
Better known as Beans. He is best known for his taste in Guinness. You will definitely hear him before you see him- but he's a great time. He's a New York City native, who is a die-hard Celtics Fan. We think it's just the four-leaf clover.
Liana Nathan
Bridesmaid
This girl has it all together. She is oh so fabulous, energetic, and a beyond impressive party planner. Emily is so glad their paths crossed and they can call each other best friends. Berners for Life.
Derek Schultz
Groomsman
Pat and Derek, better known as Emily's Secret Service in Law School. Pat and Derek were quick friends because they had the same sized hands. They also took all of the same classes, interned at the same law firm, and have all the same interests.
Regan Houck
Jr. Bridesmaid
This girl is a star. Dare we say she is a mini Emily. You never know what Regan will say to make you laugh next. We love her beyond and are so happy she is in on this day.
Tyson Houck
Jr. Groomsman
The Chicken Man! This future Marine Biologist/NFL Player is Emily's Godson and the coolest kid out there. You can catch Emily rockin' Upper Moreland Bears gear for #99. We know he will bring that same energy to the wedding day! Love this kid!
Greycen Prychka
Jr. Bridesmaid
Grey is such a cutie! She is also a star performer extraordinaire and a tiktok queen with a great sense of humor. We cannot imagine this day without her!
Peter Giordano
Jr. Groomsman
Peter Piper 2 and Blair's Big Bro. This Karate Choppin 2nd Grader will beat you at Operation any day, any time. Not to mention he's freakishly good at math. He is such a sweet, smart kid and is the best nephew ever! We're so happy he's a part of our day.
Lucas Farris
Ring Bearer
Our little Looki. Auntie Em and Uncle Pat love this boy beyond measure. It is so special he is here.
Blair Russell
Flower Girl
This little precious neice of ours will make her debut down the aisle, red hair and all! It is so special she is here.
Raelyn Houck
Flower Girl
This sassy, spunky 3 year old is ready to take on the day. We can't guarantee she will be smiling though (just like her dad)! She is so smart and so funny. Love her to pieces.
Woogie
Officiant
This guy started out as Jay Russell's childhood neighbor, and now he is a full-blown member of the family. Woogie's chill/woke vibe is the perfect match for Emily and Pat's wedding day. So happy to have this Rockstar officiate the wedding. If he tells you he signed an NDA... don't let him finish the story. That's strict advice from his legal counsel.
