Kelly & Jake
Meet Our Wedding Party
Rachel Starnes
Maid of Honor
My Alpha Gam sister and fellow U of M grad. From football tailgates and fraternity parties; to New Years Eve dancing and afternoon tea in the city, Rachel has always been a great partner-in-crime!
Vimal Nair
Best Man
My cousin and partner-in-shenanigans, Vimal has always been like more of a brother to me since I first moved to the US in '02. From Super Nintendo sleep-overs to the Russian Ice Cage, we've seen a lot, although we don't remember much of it....
Devi Pillai
Bridesmaid
Jake's sister, and it's never a dull moment with her around! Devi has been our personal wedding planner, with coordinating the proposal and engagement party, and lots and lots of dress shopping!
Kyle Hall
Groomsman
Kelly's younger brother, and just like Devi, it's never a dull moment with Kyle in the room. Keep an eye out for his impromptu dance performances throughout the night, and you will not be disappointed!
Bri Ward
Bridesmaid
Bri was one of the first people Kelly met at the University of Michigan. Living on the same floor at our dorm, there were lots of fun times shared during freshman year and beyond.
Shahin Behnamian
Groomsman
Shahin and I have been friends since Freshman year at George Mason University. After graduation, we continued our friendship by catching up whenever I was back in VA over the past 6 years, and i'm honored to have him as one my groomsmen on this very special day.
Marnie Scheinberg
Bridesmaid
Marnie and I met in our freshman year math class at the University of Michigan. Although Kelly cannot say she did well in that class, I did gain a friend, senior year roommate, and bridesmaid from it all!
Sai Gunda
Groomsman
Fellow GMU graduate, long-time friend, and unofficial tutor, Sai is probably the main reason why I got through college with my degree! I'm very excited to have Sai up at the altar with me on this very special day.
Molly Cartwright
Bridesmaid
Molly is one of Kelly's oldest friends from her hometown in Michigan. Although both of us no longer live around the corner from one another, we love catching up over vacations. Look forward to having her by our side.
Fletcher Ta
Groomsman
Fletcher and I met in our summer calculus class between Freshman and Sophomore year in college. Since then we have become good friends eating our way through town, and pulling all-nighters with our soldering irons and micro-controllers.
Stacey Krause
Bridesmaid
Stacey is another hometown childhood friend. Love catching up with her when Kelly is home in Michigan. So honored to have her part of our special day, especially since she's planning her own wedding the following month!
Michael Downey
Groomsman
One of my oldest and closest friends from high school, Mike was the first friend I made after moving to the US in 2002. I super happy Mike accepted my request to be a Groomsman and look forward to spending more time with him on my way to the Big Day!
