Our Wedding Crew

Amy Green

Bridesmaid/Sister/Badass Mama

"Amy Green, sister in law to the beautiful bride. I’ve been blessed to know Jessie for the past 7 years, sharing in many adventures, family celebrations, and competitive game nights! However, the best part of these past seven years, was bearing witness to the love story of Jessie and Ben. I saw their love grow and deepen into something magical. I couldn’t be more excited to share in this big day with Jessie. She is the best friend, sister, and Auntie that anyone could ask for."

Rachel Slovin

Bridesmaid/1st Friend/Poet

"From preschool to now, there’s so much to say, but I’ll try to keep it short as to not dismay: From tadpole searching in the creek, to going off into the woods to ride four-wheelers we’d sneak. From making “experiments” that we’re simply concoctions of soap, to eating all things chocolate until our stomachs said “nope!” Growing up with you has been full of oh so many laughs, and I’m so excited for Oct 3rd when you finally marry your other half <3 Mazel Tov Jessie!"

Sarah Donovan

Bridesmaid/Super Planner/Love at First Site

Sarah is (according to Jess) the "one who is good at planning," but seriously, that's just because she likes having fun with her people. She met Jess several years ago at Postino, where they instantly bonded over long distance relationships (and how much they stink), Italian wine, dogs, hiking, word games and musicals. Although Sarah and Jess are TERRIBLE at taking pictures together and cry way too often at movies, they are above-average adventurers and excellent statement earring models. Love you, Jess!

Ruth Randall

Bridesmaid/Plant Mama/1st Wife

Jess and I met in college and became besties soon after. My favorite part about her is I can totally be myself when I'm with her. My Fiancé says I spend more time talking to her than him and we call Jess "my wife" :).

Lexie Dorn

Bridesmaid/Adventure Buddy/Craigslist Roomie

Lexie met Jessie via the wide world of the internet. As two young twenty-somethings, both girls were looking for a place to live in Denver; Jessie searching from home in Ohio, Lexie searching from home in California. By way of the click of a button on just the right Craigslist ad, Lexie stumbled upon Jessie's listing looking for another female to be her roommate. As we do in the 21st century, Lexie looked up Jessie on Facebook, saw that she had lots of outdoorsy photos and decided that was enough to say yes to being her roommate. As fate would have it, a Craigslist connection turned into a friendship and five years later, Lexie said yes to being Jessie's bridesmaid!

Alexa Zuber

Bridesmaid/Sotto Sister/Travel Buddy

Hi, I'm Alexa! I had the honor of meeting Jess while working at a restaurant in Cincinnati. We bonded over a love of red wine and pasta that turned into a European adventure and some of my favorite memories. I can't open a bottle of Italian red without thinking of my best Italian loving girl ;) I was also witness to the early years of Ben, and lots of late night conversations about how her perfect match couldn't be anyone else. Some people are just truly meant to be, and I'm so happy to be able to share this special celebration with them!

Kia Ranney

Bridesmaid/BeatBoxer/Naked Lap Partner for Life

Jessie and I met singing a cappella in college, and it's been love ever since. Our friendship grew through beat-boxing and rapping on our bike rides to volleyball games, living together in Boulder, and sharing countless memories in the mountains backpacking and drowning in deep powder. I'm so excited to celebrate this day with such an amazing couple!
