Hailey & Douglas
Wedding Party
Erin Kieny
Maid of Honor
Erin and Hailey have been friends since Kindergarten. They grew up together in Memphis, TN and loved dressing up, listening to Avril Lavigne, and playing mancala on the entrance sign to Erin's neighborhood. They both attended Saint Louis University (SLU) together, where Erin continued on to become a Physician Assistant. She lives and works in Chicago, IL and is a big city girly! Neither Hailey nor Erin have a biological sister, so they've basically adopted each other as sisters for life.

Audrey Pittman

Hailey always says she is thankful for Audrey every day for putting up with Cam ;) Audrey always makes sure Hailey knows about the latest and greatest beauty products. The four of us (Me & Douglas + Cam & Audrey) love to enjoy meals and the occasional Escape Room together.
Michael Røise
Best Man
Michael is one of Douglas's seven siblings (6th in the birth order with Douglas being the 8th). Growing up they played paintball, tennis, soccer, and hockey together in North Dakota/Minnesota. They now often play online games and most recently did a backpacking trip in Colorado.
Mason Ronan
Best Man
Mason and Douglas met through mutual friends during high school. They both share an interest in cars, motorcycles, business and having a good laugh. They'd often hang out in Fargo, ND and get Buffalo Wild Wing and then drive around to the car dealerships just to see the inventory. The latter resulted in cars being purchased on more than one occasion.
Lewis Røise
Groomsman
Lewis is Douglas's nephew who is just five years younger than him. While not always being close geographically or otherwise, they ended up playing Call of Duty together back in 2019. One night, Douglas managed to convince Lewis (a gifted musician) that he should move to Nashville with him and try his luck. It worked and they moved to Nashville together in 2021. An unusual friendship came about and they have been close ever since.
Jeremiah ("Jak") Røise
Groomsman
Jak is another of Douglas's nephews and is part of the same gaming group that includes Michael, Lewis, and Douglas (RGG - Roise Gaming Group). They often swap jokes and memes via a group chat. Jak is a tech wiz and assists his competent yet vastly less knowledgeable uncle with how to setup, run, and troubleshoot a Linux server.
Cameron Boyer
Groomsman
Cameron is Hailey's younger brother. Douglas and Cameron first met at a family gathering in the Boyer's home. After bonding over video games, cars, hunting and more, it was apparent quickly that we'd get along. Cameron is full of jokes, Hailey often states that he is "the funniest person I know." ... or was it "funniest looking person" she knows?? Can't remember 😉
