Stephanie & Geoffrey
Wedding Party
Alison Burry
Maid of Honor
Alison and Stephanie spent 16 years together under the same roof in Louisville, KY! Alison is the younger sister of the bride and the official, professional, incredible, generous wedding planner of this special occasion! (This event would NOT be possible without all of her amazing work!) Although Stephanie and Alison spent their younger years bickering, they have grown to understand and appreciate each others strengths. Alison is detail-oriented (hence the wedding planning), passionate, driven, and has a sense of humor that could make Eeyore laugh. To Stephanie, Alison is a model of strength and persistence through all the ups and downs of life.
Sean Fries
Best Man
SeanO, the unanimous MVP of the Fries family, has been alongside Geoff since birth. He always has a snarky joke and lame dance move, but he is also always there when needed. Sean could never beat Geoff in FIFA, and still wishes he could. Everyone loves his witty humor and genuine smile. Geoff's childhood would never have been the same without Sean's consistent loving, bickering, and jovial personality. #SturdyKid
Erin Crawford
Bridesmaid
Erin and Stephanie attended Assumption High School together in Louisville, KY. Both girls were boarding a school bus to cheer on the school's volleyball team and there was only one seat left... next to each other. Their shared love for athletics, Assumption high school, s'mores, and fire pit parties was only the beginning of a long and adventurous friendship. Erin journeyed with Stephanie on the road trip to move to San Diego and is willing to be by Stephanie's side at the drop of a hat (literally, ask about the engagement party story)!
Drew Hinnant
Groomsman
Geoff's older brother and idol while growing up. Every chance Geoff got to wrestle and fight Drew he did... Especially if it involved their Everlast boxing equipment (sorry about all the blood Mom). Drew was the one that got Geoff into soccer at a young age, and has always been a great mentor to Geoff throughout his young officer career.
MacKenzie Kerrigan
Bridesmaid
MacKenzie and Stephanie became friends in the athletic department at American University. The friendship began when MacKenzie invited Stephanie to live in her apartment for 3 weeks one summer! Mackenzie has been Stephanie's number one cheerleader through the years; whether Stephanie is playing field hockey, studying in school, moving across the country, trying something new, or getting married to Geoff, Mackenzie continues to be the loudest voice of encouragement, love, and enthusiasm!
Chris Adsit
Groomsman
Geoff's roommate of four years in college, and most genuine man you'll ever meet. Known for his great smile, stellar music selection, and aggressive dance moves. Chris will be an asset to the dance floor, and the amount of work he did to be able to make the wedding weekend is truly incredible and appreciated.
Natalie Marsh
Bridesmaid
Natalie "Nelly" Marsh and Stephanie played field hockey together at American University. Their first bond was over a shared love for the musical talents of Ben Rector and NEEDTOBREATHE. Since then, the two have been to countless concerts together - in Washington, DC and in Denver, CO! But even more than attending concerts, the two could be found in the midst of a spontaneous dance party on any given day... especially since they live less than a 1 minute walk from each other! If you see an "old man" really breaking it down on the dance floor after the wedding, you can assume it's really Nelly.
Josh Feyerabend
Groomsman
Josh "Mr. Varsity" Feyerabend and Geoff met in 9th grade English class. From the start they were destined to be great friends. After a year of recruiting, Josh finally joined Geoff on their local soccer team, and they've been inseparable ever since. Josh has been beside Geoff for the past 11 years and when back together it seems like nothing has changed. Thanks for being a great friend, rival, and brother throughout our life. P.S. Geoff does have a better golf swing, it's been proven.
Grace Parke
Bridesmaid
Grace "Rosa" Parke and Stephanie played field hockey together at American University. Their overlap on the field hockey team was just the start of a friendship full of food, faith, creativity, and laughter. Grace and Stephanie especially share a love for desserts, especially oatmeal chocolate chip cookies, trifles, ice cream sandwiches, and/or pavlova!
Drew Lehew
Groomsman
Drew "Sasquatch" Lehew and Geoff met in high school while both trying out for the soccer team. Back then Drew's diet consisted of CiCis Pizza and SpaghettiOs.... And just like Drews diet, their friendship hasn't changed since high school. Drew is a gentle giant who saved Geoff's team many times as the goalkeeper. Their friendship consisted of Halo 2, and late night CocaCola runs while dreaming of a state championship. Drew has always been a great friend and confidant throughout all these years. #AllState
Caroline Hundley
Junior Bridesmaid
Stephanie's first job out of college was teaching PE in Washington, DC; she worked closely with Caroline's mom, Courtney. Over the years, Stephanie got to know and love the Hundley family. She's spent holidays with the Hundleys, lived in their home for a few weeks, and has joined the fun on their family vacation in New Jersey! While Caroline and her brother, Jamie, are like a younger brother and sister to Stephanie, their parents - Courtney and Brooks - are like a big brother and sister Stephanie never had!
Nour Saleh
Junior Bridesmaid
Stephanie started babysitting Nour and her brother, Waleed, in 2012. Eventually, Stephanie also taught them PE at their elementary school! Afternoons with Waleed and Nour were full of sushi-making, reading books, singing along in the car between after-school activities, eating Udon soup and dumplings, laughing at all of their jokes and learning from their wise dating advice. Waleed and Nour, along with their parents Lara and Imad, are a tremendous source of love and support and laughter - all the way from Washington, DC to southern CA!
Emma Hinnant
Flower Girl
Emma is groomsman Drew Hinnant's daughter and Geoff's niece!
Chance Miller
Groomsman
Unable to attend the wedding due to overlapping commitments with Spokane District Fire Department. Chance has been playing soccer with Geoff since age 8. Better known as "Magic", Chance and Geoff tore up the fields in Oklahoma and grew up together through thick and thin. The best soccer player in Oklahoma, Chance was an even better friend. He will be missed by all during the wedding weekend.
