Wedding Party
Jaymarie Santana
Maid of Honor
Hi! My name is Jaymarie, but if you’re Alexa, you can call me Jay. Since the first day of gym class in 2008, Alexa has been a constant, important presence in my life. Our sixteen-year-long friendship has been one of great comfort— a gentle reminder that the universe knew exactly what she was doing when the new girl met her lifelong companion. I can’t wait for those little girls to celebrate on the dance floor.
Megan Perrotta
Bridesmaid
My name is Megan! Alexa and I met at college in 2016 in a statistics class. Fun fact: we both HATED it and she has been one of my closest friends ever since. Alexa and Oliver are a once in a lifetime kind of couple. I was honored to help Oliver pick Alexa’s engagement ring and now I’m beyond humbled to stand next to them as they say their “I dos!” You can count on me to bring the tissues!
Laura Berkel
Bridesmaid
Hi! My name is Laura and I co-teach with Alexa! I’ve known her going on 3 years now and she’s simply one of the most genuine and amazing people I’ve ever met. I’m so blessed to know her and Oliver, and can’t wait to celebrate this special moment with them🤍
Haley Nielsen
Best Woman
Hi, I’m Haley! I have been so lucky to be Oliver’s best friend for the past 13 years. Even though we’re over 700 miles away from each other, I know I can always count on Oliver to be there for me. We’ve grown up together and now I have the honor of standing by his side to watch him marry the most perfect person for him. I am so excited to see Alexa and Oliver start their lives together and can’t wait to see what the future holds for them!
Kayla Tisa
Groomswoman
Hi my name is Kayla. About 14 years ago, I met this stranger in middle school and he instantly became my best friend. We even convinced his mom to transfer schools and move towns so we could hangout all the time. He’s been someone I can call a true, loyal friend ever since. I’m so happy to be here and excited to celebrate Oliver & Alexa’s future together!
Hannah Christman-Isaacs
Groomswoman
Hey, I'm Hannah! I've known Ollie for, wow, 12 years now. We became friends due to a shared love of music and have shared so much more since then through all the highs and lows our lives have brought us. I'm proud to share another huge moment with one of my greatest friends, and I'm honored to be a part of Oliver and Alexa's big day!
Mikaela Lagerhausen
Groomswoman
Hello! My name is Mikaela. I went to high school with Oliver, and we have been friends ever since. I am so excited to be a part of Oliver and Alexa's big day!
Kyle Ziemba
Flower Man
Hi my name is Alexas favorite brother and I'm very excited to be the flower man for the couple! I enjoy long walks in the beach or just cuddling up with a good book by the fire and wine (yum!). I am very excited to put on a performance for my sister and Oliver as well as be there for her special day. P.S I'm going to absolutely murder the dance floor.
Jesse Merbler
Officiant
Howdy! My name is Jesse and my life was graced by the presence of an angel 29 years ago when Alexa was born. She is simply the most stunning, kind, intelligent, and funniest person I know. She is never annoying and is so incredibly modest. I often enjoy sharing meals with Oliver and Alexa and have seen first hand how amazing their love is. I am counting down the days until I have the honor of officiating my little sister's wedding! Also I have three pugs and the most drop dead gorgeous fiancé on this side of the Mississippi. *DISCLAIMER: This bio was written by Alexa and is subject to change.*
Tammi Ligouri
Coordinator
Tammi has known Alexa just shy of a decade, all thanks to falling in love with Jesse, Alexa's brother. Tammi is absolutely radiant and full of life. She is a pug lover and owns three perfect pug babies. Tammi works in the wedding industry and will be helping Oliver and Alexa with planning, preparation, and day of shenanigans on their wedding day. Tammi always has a smile on her face and is friendly to everyone she meets. She also must be a saint for dealing with Jesse for 9 years! *DISCLAIMER: This bio was written by Alexa and is subject to change.*
Ashley Mosley
Coordinator
Ashely met Oliver way back in 6th grade when their grandmothers forced them to get ice cream together because Oliver was the new kid in town. What followed was over a decade of friendship, laughter, and love. Oliver was there to see Ashley graduate high school, pursue a career in wedding planning, become a dog mom, move states and meet and marry her wonderful husband Dane. And Ashley has been able to witness firsthand the love story between Alexa and Oliver unfold from just a state away. She is so excited to not only see them embark on their next chapter together, but also help keep everything in line on their special day.
