Wedding Party
Natalie Martinez
Maid of Honor
Natalie and I have been friends since day one. Literally, she was my first friend who came to see me in the hospital the day I was born (she was only 2 months old). We grew up together, playing barbies and dress up (we were brides for Halloween a handful of times), and over the past 33 years we have become an important fixture in each other's lives. Natalie is my Maid of Honor on this special day, and both Chris and I are honored to have her stand with us as we say "I do".
Eric Michelman
Best Man
Eric and I met each other in the 7th grade when Eric was laughing hysterically and rolling around on the floor in math class. Since then, we've have been like brothers. Eric is generous, sarcastic, intelligent and I am proud to call him my best man. Rebecca and I are honored to have him stand with us as we say "I do". Hey, whats the secret handshake?
Katy Icelow
Bridesmaid
Katy is my sister, my closest friend, and a huge part of what makes me, me. The two of us grew up like twins, only 13 months apart, and rarely a day goes by when we don't talk or aren't together. Katy has a fierce love for being outdoors, raising her beautiful children Arrio and Juniper, and all things rhythm and creativity. Katy is an artist and a musician and an incurable adventurer. Chris and I are honored to raise our families alongside Katy and Carlo, and to have her stand with us as we say "I do".
Shane Lewis
Groomsman
Shane and I grew up like brothers, playing and spending all our holidays together. Shane is a go getter and always has his hands in some new adventure. He is a hard worker and dedicated to always improving himself. I have always been lucky to have Shane as such an awesome "cousin". Rebecca and I are honored to have him stand with us as we say "I do".
Jenny Koplin
Bridesmaid
A few years ago we joked about who's side Jenny would stand on if we ever got married, because truthfully, Jenny is a best friend to both of us. Obviously, Rebecca won this one, but not without a mean game of ro-sham-bo to decide. Jenny is an amazing friend, and she is the best example of selflessness, kindness, and integrity. She truly sets the bar for giving back to others and being a shoulder to lean on. Her shoulders may look dainty, but they've been their for both of us to lean on throughout the years, and she's been anchor in both of our lives. We love Jenny and we are honored to have her stand with us as we say "I do".
Kyle Shrout
Groomsman
If there are stories to be told, its with Kyle. Kyle and I have known each other since 6th grade, and have been getting into trouble ever since. Everyone always knew something goofy and funny was going to happen if the two of us were together. We grew up having a lot in common from playing Hoop-it-up at ARC to driving down to LA to watch racing events. Kyle is kind, charismatic and always willing to put everyone else first. Rebecca and I are honored to have him stand with us as we say "I do". Let's get that chicken suit!
