Bride
Bekah lived a parallel life to Chris for 25 years. When their paths crossed, there was no way that they would separate again. Her smile brightens every room she enters. Resilient, energetic, adventurous, lovable; Bekah is delightfully empathetic, athletic and loyal, she's the REAL DEAL. She is the One Ring to Chris's Smeagol, the peanut butter to his pie, the sunshine to his chlorophyll; you know?
Groom
Chris is amazingly kind, lovingly sweet, deeply thoughtful, SO funny, incredibly talented at soccer, and wicked smart. Literally, his job title is Scientist. When they first met, he bonded with Bekah over their shared love of the Sounders and Lord of the Rings. He is the best cat dad around to their eight year old Siberian, Miko, and the best dog dad to their one of a kind Walnut.
Matron of Honor
Hannah is Bekah's older sister and oldest friend (literally since birth). They have traveled to over ten countries together, lived together, and shared moments that only sisters would understand. Bekah could not celebrate this day properly without her.
Best Man
Being only 2 years younger, Tadeas (Todd) was the test subject of all of Chris's early science experiments. He's parlayed those years in a burning passion for movie making. With multiple films and several shorts under the belt, the sky's the limit for this goof.
Bridesmaid
Ivy is one of Bekah's oldest friends from elementary school. She is the kindest human on the planet and a joy to be around. They share a love of dogs and a passion for traveling. She recently moved to the U.K. with her husband Rik, but is known to come visit whenever you need her to.
Groomsman
Russell writes excellent restaurant reviews. When Chris first met Russell he was admittedly a bit overwhelmed by his loving energy; but that quickly turned into open arms and friendship. Russell is just such a gentle loving soul that really knows how to make you feel included. He's a real Fungi. Also, hide your dance floor, he's gonna tear it up!
Bridesmaid
Nicole is another one of Bekah's oldest elementary school friends. She also loves to travel (I'm sensing a pattern??) and has lived in Germany, Thailand, and now currently resides in Switzerland. Both Bekah and Chris stayed with her two summers ago in Geneva during their trip to Europe and are forever grateful for her generous hospitality and fun spirit.
Groomsman
Good ol' Boosters! Clark and Chris met on the pitch in high school when Chris towered over Clark... After graduating and living their lives, they reunited over drinks and proceeded to become great life friends. Sounders games and Flatstick nights, Clark even visited Chris's family in the Czech so you KNOW its legit. You got beer questions? Clark is your guy.
Bridesmaid
Hailey is Bekah's cousin and one of the most genuine people in the whole world. She is the best dog mom and trainer (@darrelthedoge) and will show support and love whenever you need it. She has worked for Alzheimer's Association after their Oma was diagnosed and, although she works for a startup now, she still fiercely supports the cause. She also loves animals and has been a vegan for many years #govegan
Groomsman
Nick The Vibes Guy™ Adair. This guyyyy, am I right? Being the husband to Hailey, Vibes Guy met Chris at a family event and they hit it off immediately with Mr. Tickles. This quickly progressed to the whole of Emotion Wheel and Pokemon cards. This guy just knows how to vibe. Sky Zone MVP!
Bridesman
Ben is Bekah's younger brother. He lived in Alabama for seven years but moved from the South in 2023 and now resides in the PNW (rightfully so) working as a personal trainer/fitness guru. He is a gifted musician and plays guitar, trombone, and piano beautifully. Ben can make anyone laugh and turn any event into a bitchin time (see photo above).
Groomsman
Jonas is Chris's younger brother by 15 years. Bona-fide baller, certified shot caller. You can find Jonas with The book and a ball anywhere theres room to kick. After finishing up High School at Nathan Hale, Jonas may be training/ studying abroad in Prague but a lot can happen between now and then, he's got all it takes to make anything happen.
