Erin & Deb
Wedding Party
Colleen Jadach
Bridesmaid
My first friend and big sister. Colleen fills my life with the biggest laughs, wildest nights and best hugs. It’s not easy trying to be the leader of the Crazy McKenzie kids but she does it well. She’s a die hard loyalist to the people she loves and always there when I need her. She’s always down to party, and her kids are proof that our Clan of “Crazies” lives on. Colleen’s best dance moves were learned in Ryan’s gym so don’t hold that against her. She thinks she can “drop it like it's hot.”
Sean Ounan
Bridesman
My oldest brother tells one hell of a story. Catch him at the bar, get a beer recommendation, and ask him about literally anything. Got an electrical issue, ask Sean. Need someone to cut the BS out of any situation, talk to Sean. Need advice about raising girls (little sisters and daughters included), Sean is 100% your man. He is giving and magnanimous and personable and one of the most important people in my life.
Maureen McKenzie
Bridesmaid
Find her on the dance floor. My little sister brings a ton of energy to any party. When we kissed the Blarney Stone, she, even more than Terri, was blessed with the gift of gab. But don’t trust all the stories she tells you about me, I only cried about cake once. Maureen’s loyal, fun loving and adventurous. The perfect addition to any wedding party, and an obvious choice for me!
Timmy Ounan
Bridesman
Timmy is the consummate goofball. He has been known to wear lederhosen to family parties completely unannounced or grow weird mustaches just for laughs. Don't be fooled by all those antics though, underneath all of that hilarity is a sweet sentimental guy who would do anything for his family. At the wedding, you will likely find him practicing some of the best advice I have ever heard him give: be funny and know how to dance.
Sarah Novosedlik
Bridesmaid
Sal and I worked taught together in Seoul and quickly bonded over the idiosyncrasies of being raised Irish Catholic. From hiking Machu Picchu to ringing in the New Year at a Full Moon party in Koa Phan Yang, Sarah is down for any adventure. Her and I have spent a million hours in the back of cabs, on trains, boats or planes talking endlessly about our past present and dreams of the future. She’s always a great ear to listen. Don’t let her nickname, “Sarah No Smiles” fool you, Sal is down for a good time and a great conversation. Just add Jameson!
Liz Litchfield
Bridesmaid
You may say Liz is a dreamer, but she's not the only one. It is impossible to not get swept up into Liz's positivity. Her hard work has been an inspiration to me thorough out my life. Competitive to the core, we have spent our lives as teammates: soccer, board games, school projects, 2nd grade messengers, housemates, and now bridesmaids. She is truly the Vanna to my Pat. Find her on the dance floor and challenge her to a dance off, you won't be disappointed by her signature moves.
Kierstin Slade
Bridesmaid
We met in the 8th grade in Calvary’s kitchen when Sister Mildred put us to work selling ice cream. First talking about our favorite Beatle, our conversations took a quick turn into full belly laughs. She is my replacement in the family Thanksgiving football game and my dad’s “favorite daughter.” Kier is one of the most genuine, sweet and intelligent people I have ever had the pleasure to meet. She’ll dance and drink her heart out with you until Eric gives her the signal that it's time to go.
Heather DeWar
Bridesmaid
Heather is our wild card. Throw her into any situation and she will inject her weird, bringing laughter and joy every step of the way. If you find yourself in conversation with Heather, buckle up and ask her expert advice on: making up holidays honoring C-list celebrities, being a dog whisperer, or framing selfies for your visual band. Now that you two are friends, Heather is loyal to the bone, she'll have your back forever.
Carrie Marston
Bridesmaid
Carrie and I met in an Irish pub in Seoul, South Korea. We first became sidekicks over our love of whiskey and then our love for eachother! She’s my go to call to whine, laugh and cry. Her competitive spirit gets her in trouble but always leads to great stories! Although, drunk Erin has tried tackling her a million times, she always picks me up and makes me laugh. If we run out of whiskey, she’s why.
Colleen Ounan
Bridesmaid
Colleen has made me feel like a little sister since I was a very nervous bridesmaid in her wedding 20 years ago. You might be surprised to learn that I was not too excited to be in a dress and heels in front of everyone. My teenage, self conscious panic was eased right away when Colleen described the dresses as navy and as simple as possible. Throughout that whole process I was so relieved that my brother was marrying someone that was so down to earth and such a good match for him. Colleen is smart and funny and such a good mom. She has been an excellent example for me to look up to.
Sarah Tull
Bridesmaid
Although we first met at Franklin Towne, Sarah had been hearing stories about my crazy antics for at least a decade! Luckily, she was on board and even wanted to be my roommate. We took Jenkintown by storm and haven’t looked back! She’s my go to work friend and my favorite Jenkintown bar crawl partner. If she invites you back to Buckets after the wedding….your night is about to get wild!
Michele Ounan
Bridesmaid
Despite a wild shamrock shuttle introduction, Michele and I hit it off right away. Mostly, we bonded over our shared love of Philadelphia sports, good food and drinks, and making fun of Tim. Michele likes to remind Timmy and I that she loves us so much separately, but together we are ridiculous. Even with that assessment, you will most likely find her trying hard not to laugh at our shenanigans. Michele has a super impressive ability to crush projects while making sure that everyone is having a good time. I am officially stealing the advice that she gave everyone on her wedding day: Eat fast and get back of the dance floor!
