Father of the Bride
James was born and raised in Dallas, TX. Before he joined the Air Force, he ran track and played football in high school. Dad is always there when you need him; even if it’s a shoulder to cry on. James always knows how to make you feel unique. For example how you were born stories. He has made it out alive with a house of girls and a pocket full of great stories.
Mother of the Bride
Have you ever thought " they were born to be a mom?" I know my mom was. If you have a crying baby, she’ll put it to sleep instantly. You’d think the sandman was her best friend or something. Ha! The Air Force has been a influential part of her life. Kris worked side by side with her dad until 1990. It’s also where my parents met. She’ll be your best friend and confidante. You can always ask her to join you in a little poolside siesta! Mom for the win!
Mother of the Groom
Joanne is from northern MN where she grew up with 9 siblings. She met Caseys dad in Crookston MN, which led to four boys. Now, most of you know, the guys never let up. Just ask Joanne about the frying pan she chucked near Casey. As a reminder, never under estimate a mother with boys. She is fearless!, Just a couple years ago she went white water rafting. Best family workshop EVER!
Brother of Groom
Jason is the eldest of 4. He is married to Shiloe and have a child, Gavin. In 2020 they moved to Pennsylvania from Florida. Jason is in tech; better protect your personal devices. :) Shiloe is an educator and loves antiques. They’re always on the move. I mean I think they’ve been Disney over 50 times, as well as, the infamous white water rafting trip in Ohiopyle, PA. Top 5 best family workshops ever. You’d think they made the movie “The boy who could fly” after Jason. Seriously just ask! They’re living their best life and love trying new things
Brother of Groom
Chris is the 3rd child and Father to Macy and Maddie. Chris is another family member who served in the military. Just last year he was blessed with a beautiful service companion; a yellow lab Rascal. Thinking back, I would say the best story is about the red Tommy Hilfiger jacket and the frying pan. I would ask each of them what they remember from those moments. Chris has a talent for making you feel special, ever need a moment to smile or laugh; He’s your guy!
Sister of the Bride
These two are SPECIAL! I have many new experiences because of Katherine. My first sister, my nephews and giving me a brother Brendan. Dad was excited to hear that boys were joining the family LOL! Wyatt was their first and Waylon is the youngest. Katie and Brendan were married last fall in October. It was a beautiful intimate ceremony. Brendan is part of the union. Ask him about any of the many fun stories from work. Casey and i are happy he is handy. He assisted us with installing the railway beam in the living room.
Sister of the Bride
Kimberly is a Scorpio and loves anime. She’s even been to the Great Comic Con in San Diego, CA. She has many hobbies and interests. Now, what you may not know, is that we love movies. You can say a quote and she’ll finish it. She is the middle child and such a caring person. Late-night talks and snuggles are the best.

Kathy met Lincoln in Kentucky while attending PA School. After graduation they moved to Virginia. The Chasteen’s are such adventurers. One important memory is Paris, France.
