Wedding Party

Kileigh Badagliacco

Matron of Honor

Kileigh is not only Hillary's big sister but best friend as well. It wasn't always rainbows and butterflies though. We spent our earlier years bickering and arguing, driving our parents crazy. Things started to mend themselves when we first attended community college together, sprinting across campus to the classes we had together. It only continued to become stronger when we each went away to college and the college visits began. After all the time I was spending in Whitewater, WI, her home began to feel like a second home to me. Kileigh has been a great big sister, going through all of life's ups and downs together. One of our most special moments was when I officiated Kileigh's wedding, marrying her and her best friend. It's now an honor to have Kileigh as my Matron of Honor.

Karen Pethan

Bridesmaid

Our friendship began back in high school, I'll never forget that very day. Kileigh and Karen were originally best friends and hanging out at our house one summer afternoon. Kileigh had to go to work and as she was leaving the house Karen and I began chatting. Kileigh came back later that evening to realize Karen had never left. While Kileigh wasn't so happy back in high school we have since all become best friends. From swimming in Karens pool, college visits, to standing in each others weddings, we've been through it all together.

Kirstin West

Bridesmaid

Hillary met Kirstin while getting ready for a bodybuilding competition back in 2015. It was best friends at first sight. We endured all the long hard days at the gym together to then eventually eating our weight in either sushi or donuts. We spent all our free time together and after many days and nights in Chicago we decided to make the big move downtown and where we were roommates in our first "big girl" apartment. If you couldn't find us at Federales or Bombobar you'd likely be able to find us dancing the night away in River North. We have since grown up a little and much prefer brunch and getting home at a reasonable hour.

Rosemary Austin

Bridesmaid

Rosie is the funnier and smarter Austin sibling. Due to the distance from Chicago to San Francisco though, we did not get to meet in person until Christmas 2020. However, as soon as conversations started though Zoom or FaceTime, we naturally clicked and it felt like Rosie was already a sister. Meeting in San Francisco over my first Austin family Christmas only confirmed those feelings. Rosie presented us with an unforgettable blind wine tasting event and I knew then Rosie was the coolest future sister-in-law and Zach had to propose because it wasn't going to get any better than this!
