Ryan & Elizabeth
Wedding Party
Margaret Jackson
Maid of Honor
Margaret needs no introduction. If you know her, you probably already love her. She is the Bride's little sister and the life of every party.
Chris Kunkle
Best Man
Chris is the Groom's older brother. Chris is an artsy architect and relies on Ryan to keep him updated on all things sport. Ryan dreams that one day he will understand and be an Eagles fan! When it counts, they always lean on each other for encouragement and guidance in all areas of life.
Caroline Fletcher
Bridesmaid
Caroline is the Bride's cousin, but she may as well be a sister. They grew up together collecting American Girl dolls and playing notorious pranks on Margaret. Although the pranks have subsided, you can still find the two exploring LA and laughing about the silly things they did as kids.
Devon Cataldi
Groomsman
If anyone knows the Bride and Groom, it's Devon! He has been along for the ride since DAY ONE, and they wouldn't want it any other way! Devon was there the first time they met, the night Ryan got Elizabeth's phone number, the first date (not kidding), the second date (still not kidding), and honestly every date until the couple left Hawaii! When the three are together there is no shortage of laughter and good times.
Sophie Minteer
Bridesmaid
Sophie is the Bride's best friend. The two met in kindergarten at the craft table and the rest was history. If you've had the pleasure of spending time with Sophie and Elizabeth, you probably felt like a big third wheel as the two laughed about an inside joke or planned their next NYC shopping expedition.
Rob Krynicki
Groomsman
Rob is the Groom's longest and closest friend. Rob and Ryan met in high school and although they are technically older and wiser, you can still find them deep in a rap battle, dancing to groovy tunes, or hysterically laughing about the time they hid in a corn field overnight.
Kate Liang
Bridesmaid
Kate met the Bride in high school dance class. It was friendship at first sight when they immediately bonded over their mutual love for Harry Potter and the Twilight Saga. In the spring of 2015, the two went into mourning upon the announcement that Robert Pattinson was engaged to be married. Several years later, they celebrated when the engagement was called off. Kate and Elizabeth have remained close, even traveling together in the UK, Greece, and most recently to Denver for the Taylor Swift Era's Tour!
Ben Yonak
Groomsman
Ben met the Groom in high school. Over the years they have bonded over their devotion to the Eagles and their legendary golf trips. If you run into Ben in the wild, there is a 90% chance you're at a Chick-fil-A, but you will have no shortage of laughter and great times.
Bella Lefante
Bridesmaid
Bella met the Bride while attending the University of St Andrews. As two of the only Americans in their dorm cohort, they immediately bonded over homesickness and laughing about the silly cultural differences. They traveled all over Europe together and have stayed in touch since graduating. If any of Elizabeth's friends have seen her more embarrassing phases of life, it's Bella!
Paul Pammer
Groomsman
Paul met the Groom in high school and has been a great friend ever since. Ryan knows he can rely on Paul for most things and will often seek his advice. The two have shared amazing memories and will continue to do so as they both start new chapters in life.
Jen Gannon
Bridesmaid
Jen met the Bride while working at a hotel in Honolulu. Nothing brings two working gals together like having a homeless man die in a hotel room while you're the managers on duty (true story)! When the two are together you can find them at Orange Theory or scouring any Christmas-themed bar in a 100 mile radius.
Phil Reed
Groomsman
Phil met the Groom through mutual friends in Hawaii. Phil was stationed in Hawaii for the Army and Ryan was finishing graduate school. Don’t be fooled by Phil’s Jack Reacher-like appearance… He is a gentle giant with endless Harry Potter trivia knowledge. The two spent most evenings together playing poker and smoking cigars. Phil has been an important part of the couples life, since he has witnessed their relationship grow from the very beginning.
Kristin Fox
Bridesmaid
Kristin met the Bride one evening when Ryan brought a date over for a game night. Kristin and Sam (who is also part of the wedding party) have become some of the closest and dearest friends to Elizabeth and Ryan. Even after both couples left Hawaii, they have stayed in touch and tried to arrange quarterly weekend trips to get together. They all hope to one day live next door to each other with a lazy river connecting their yards. If this dream does come true, you can count on weekly Harry Potter movie nights!
Sam Fox
Groomsman
Sam met the Groom in Hawaii while the two attended graduate school. Ryan forgave Sam for being a Raiders fan, and the rest was history. The two have explored Hawaii and created the best memories along the way. Ryan is even the Dog-father to Sam and Kristin's adorable pup, Leo.
Brad Hackett
Officiant
Coach, author, preacher, mentor, future Emmy award winner, and most importantly, the Groom’s step-father. Brad is a man with many stories. He came into Ryan’s life in his early teens and Ryan had to step up as best man at his wedding to his mother, Lorie. It only seems fitting to have Brad by his side on the big day.
