Wedding Party
Selma Kaidi
Daughter of the Groom
Smart, fun, and friendly, Selma is 10 years old. She loves to bike, practice cartwheels, and play piano. She has great taste and has been incredibly helpful in planning our wedding.
Greyson Kaidi
Son of the Groom
Greyson is the life of the party. He is 8 years old and will be practicing his dance moves like the "gritty" until the wedding.
Sarah Whitters
Maid of Honor
Sarah and Jess have been friends since attending the University of Iowa. After countless RAGBRAI and ski slope shenanigans, they're still close friends, even 3 states away. Sarah has run the Boston marathon twice, and enjoys skiing and mountain biking. Challenge her to a foot race in heels, and she will still probably win! Please enjoy the throwback photo from our Denver days, circa 2014.
Erik Martel
Best Man
Erik and Mo go way back to Mo's early Cargill days in Cedar Rapids. They have developed their love of bags and darts together over the years. Some fun facts about Erik: -"Walking in Memphis" is his "go to" trivia song - He was the MVP of the track team his senior year of high school; rumor has it, the trophy is still in his office -He's a master at baseball trivia (go ahead and quiz him at the wedding!)
Emily Martel
Personal Attendant
One of the craftiest ladies you'll ever meet, Emily has an eye for design and can make literallty anything. Emily's Old Fashion skills are competitive with Mo's, making her own designer simple syrups. She was also a competitive golfer in high school and was a cheerleader for Minnesota State. Word on the street says she's friends with Paul McCartney too, but you'll have to ask her... We are so lucky to have her as part of our wedding team!
