Wedding Party
Kaylee Christensen
Matron of Honor
Kaylee is Emma’s lifelong best friend & role model. She also happens to be her sister and favorite comedian. And so many other amazing wonderful things, but you probably won’t get to learn about very many of them at the wedding because Kaylee doesn’t appreciate small talk. If you happen to catch Kaylee, be sure to thank her for all she's done to make Emma & David feel so loved and celebrated for this wedding. Also, make sure she doesn't need a refill.
Selena Mencia
Bridesmaid
Selena is Emma’s sophomore-year-nemesis-turned-lifelong-best-friend. Selena is one of the kindest, and funniest individuals you will ever meet. You will probably find her on the dance floor with her husband Juan at the wedding. Ask them about their recent move to Nashville, and especially ask Juan about how thrilled he is that Selena and Emma are within driving distance of one another again!
Shaylee Aitkenhead
Bridesmaid
Shaylee is David's youngest sibling and his only sister. Luckily for Shay (and Emma), she now has a sister! Shaylee has become one of Emma's closest friends, and is always ready for a good time. Not only is Shaylee a fashion icon, but she is also basically a travel influencer. Be sure to ask Shaylee about any upcoming travels she has or for some local recommendations to check out in Chattanooga!
Veronica Volz
Bridesmaid
Veronica was Emma's very first friend in Chattanooga, and has stayed as a consistent rock for Emma. Veronica has a talent of making anyone a friend, and she'll always make you laugh. Veronica is a friend, wife, sister, aunt, and so many wonderful things - but first and foremost, she is a dog mom to her dog Weenie (yes, Weenie). You can ask Veronica about her wedding last Spring or how excited she is for her husband to get home, but she will most likely talk about Weenie.
Montana Pickett
Bridesmaid
Montana is kind of like a real-life angel. She is the kindest soul you will meet, and is fortunately Emma's bonus sister (sister-in-law). Montana is effortlessly chic and so much fun to be around. You can catch her laughing and smiling in any situation, and she's always down for a fun time or Mario Party game night.
Audrey Parker
Bridesmaid
Audrey is Emma's bonus sister, and attitude / enneagram twin. Audrey has been a wonderful & hilarious addition to the family, and has brought our cool levels up tremendously. You'll probably see Audrey strapped to Hazel (unless she's walking and decides to bring us all to tears) at the wedding, be sure to say hi to them both and ask how excited Audrey is for a Summer break from teaching 6th graders!
Matilyn Christensen
Bridesmaid
Matilyn is Emma's little sister and soon to be video game creator (if you want to take note of her name now). Matilyn gets to ditch her last day of school a few hours early to attend our wedding, but be sure to ask what her plans are for Summer break or how many times she may watch the new Wonka movie?
Peter Case
Best Man
Peter, "Petroph" (as nick-named by David), is David's oldest friend, known for his passion for good food, his sharp wits, & travel instinct. He always has an encouraging word & will surprise you with his humble insight. Be sure to ask Peter & his wife Abbey how it's been as newly weds these past few months!
Josh Aitkenhead
Groomsman
Josh is David's true brother and ALLEGEDLY is the one who set David & Emma up. While this is only partially true, he has been a good friend to Emma & has always been there for David. Known for his ability to entertain an audience (any audience), be sure to ask Josh if he's working on any fun tunes.
Dallin Christensen
Groomsman
Dallin is not only a brother & friend to Emma, but has been there as brother & friend to David. He is in the unique position of having been a room mate to David & Emma before, after, and during the woes of the pandemic. Dallin is known for being the life of the party and challenging anyone to enduring his collection of hot sauces.
Luke Pfennig
Groomsman
Luke is David's oldest friend in Chattanooga and has been there for David through thick & thin. Luke is a genius self-taught car enthusiast, and has bonded with David over their shared love for the Mazda Miata & the great outdoors. If you see Luke, be sure to ask him what's he working on in his garage these days!
Cooper Pickett
Groomsman
The man, the myth, the legend. Cooper is Emma's youngest sibling and only younger brother. Cooper also happens to be one of Emma's best friends and chaperone on many of her dates with David. Cooper is the necessary comic relief and kind heart in every room, he also claims to have the best playlist in the room. If you happen chat with him be sure to ask how he is feeling about high school this Fall!
