Wedding Party
Erica Lampert
Bride
Wes Goings
Groom
JJ (Juliana) Lampert
Maid of Honor
Not only is JJ my little sister, but she is also one of my very best friends. While she may know how to push every single one of my buttons, JJ is also one of the fiercest, funniest, and most authentic people I know. When I first started dating Wes, she was the one who encouraged me to follow my heart and take the leap of dating my best friend. JJ also has AMAZING taste and has kept me up to date with the newest and latest trends (she will likely be the inspiration behind my wedding nails, make-up, and hair). JJ will be one of the most stylish and beautiful maid of honors out there! I love her so much and I could not walk down the aisle without her by my side.
Alec Kuhn
Best Man
Alec and I have known each other since high school. We got to know each other over the years while running track together and both decided to attend the University of Cincinnati after high school. We lived together for almost 10 years and he is one of the best humans that I know.
Andrea Lee-Murphy
Bridesmaid
Andrea and I have been best friends for almost 20 years! We quickly bonded over our quirky, bird-loving, middle school teacher and the rest is history. We have gone through so much together, from crashing on the ski slopes to wild Mandarin Chinese classes, to silly high school dances. We were inseparable throughout high school and beyond. In fact, people always mixed us up and we were even able to convince people we were sisters! When Andrea bravely left to attend college in Switzerland, we thankfully continued to stay connected (thank goodness for Facebook messenger) and be there for one another. I could not image my wedding day without this amazingly kind, supportive, and beautiful human being!
Stevie Murphy
Groomsman
Stevie and I were introduced when he married one of Erica’s best friends. We have grown close over the years and Stevie reminds me of a nice pint of Guinness, nice and relaxing at first, but if you have too much over time it turns into a party.
Kate Sause
Bridesmaid
You would never guess that Kate and I became life long BFFs after I pushed her elementary school boyfriend down (by accident) on the playground...Whoops. Thankfully we were able to move past that to become the best of friends during our college years at Xavier University! I would not have survived college, or life in general, without this wonderful woman. Kate is the person I can call at anytime and I know she will be there for me (with a bottle of wine in hand). She always listens to me yap and is always there for those she loves. She is one of the most loyal, driven, and strongest people I know and I am blessed to have her by my side on my wedding day!
Tim Sause
Officiant
Tim and I got to know each other via Erica and Kate. Over the years we have grown into great friends and Tim is doing us the honor of being our officiant for our special day.
Tiffany Walker
Bridesmaid
I actually met the amazing Tiffany through Wes during my 3rd/4th year of college! Although she was a UC Bearcat, she accepted me as a Xavier Musketeer and we quickly became one of my closest friends. Tiffany is someone you can always count on and have a fantastic time with. Additionally, she has the funniest sense of humor and the biggest heart. I would not have survived my early twenties without our wine nights, 2000s dance parties, spontaneous activities, or her constant positivity. She was also one of the very first people to know Wes and I were dating and did not hesitate to give us her support. Our wedding would be incomplete without her standing by us!
Ruben De Jesus
Groomsman
I am not sure I can accurately describe the relationship that Ruben and I have other than an instant good time since we have known each other. Vibes are always high and it’s constant laughs.
Rachel Wolen
Bridesmaid
Rachel and I met during my graduate school years and she quickly became a person I couldn't live without! We bonded over the craziness of our clinical psychology program and it was not long until we became the best of friends. Rachel is one of the most honest, resilient, and determined people I know and I cannot wait to watch her rule the world one day. I could not survive in this world without our FaceTime talks, instagram reels, her sense of humor, and her constant support. She also loves to learn and debate all kinds of topics and would be a great person to chat with during our wedding! Having this beautiful woman by my side during my wedding day is a huge blessing and I could not imagine it without her!
Aaron Stoller
Groomsman
Aaron and I go way back, and by way back I mean little league baseball. From then to spending the summers throughout high school together, Aaron and I have always been close and I am the proud godfather of one of his kids.
Chloe Holmes
Bridesmaid
Chloe and I met during our middle school years and continued to become great friends from there. We not only hung out like every weekend, we also survived crazy soccer coaches and our terrible summer gym classes. She once shared a quote with me to describe our friendship: "It seems they had been and would always be friends. Time could change much, but not that," and I'd say this continues to ring true. No matter where we are and what we are doing with our lives, Chloe is always there for me through text, calls, or our 2 year meet ups. I will forever cherish our late night trampoline talks and how we can literally sit around and do nothing together and still have the best time. Chloe is so supporting, resilient, and beautiful and I am honored to have her stand by my side on my wedding day!
Noah Stoller
Groomsman
Over the years, from being kids to high school together and after, Noah has grown into a close friend of mine. I was lucky enough to be the officiant of his wedding and I am extremely happy he will be up there with me for mine.
