Zach Kennedy
Groomsman
Self-appointed Groom’s favorite cousin (the Groom agrees, so it’s official). Lover of sports in all forms, especially the kind you can yell at on TV. Big fan of food...eating it, talking about it, planning life around it. If there’s a game on and snacks involved, Zach will be there early. He is also the very proud husband of his smoking hot wife, who somehow puts up with him and still loves him, which he considers his greatest accomplishment to date. Zach brings the jokes, the energy, and just the right amount of chaos, and he’s honored to be part of such an amazing day...mainly for the open bar, but also for the happy couple.
Nathan Kennedy
Ring Bearer
Ashleigh Kennedy
Maid of Honor
Meet the Maid of Honor: basically The Groom’s twin—just ask their parents, they’ll happily confirm it. She and The Bride share one brain cell, which explains the constant laughter and inside jokes that absolutely no one else is meant to understand. After exactly one sip, she will somehow spill a Dirty Shirley directly into her food (it’s not a flaw, it’s a talent). She’s unapologetically the life of the party and easily the most competitive person you’ll ever meet—games, sports, or casual debates will be treated like championship events. Fiercely loyal, always ready for a pickleball match, and guaranteed to bring both chaos and fun, she’s here to hype the couple, win at everything, and keep the celebration unforgettable.
Talia Bitter
Bridesmaid
Talia is a reader and English teacher. She and Kayla met in 2021? 2022?(It feels like they’ve always been in each other’s lives) when they were both working at Desert Ridge High School. They first bonded over their love of fantasy and comic books, but their bond was solidified only a few months after they met when they went viral on TikTok. Now, they’re separated during the work days, but they still love to get together whenever they can to yap about the good old days.
