Wedding Party
Kaylee Robinson
Maid of Honor
Hey everyone! I’m Kaylee, Karissa’s Maid of Honour. Karissa and I first met through mutual friends in 2014, when I was given the impression she was rude and a bad friend. Later we reconnected through high school curling and have been inseparable ever since (shout out to Nik for putting us on the same team). Being a bridesmaid means supporting one of my closest friends, keeping her laughing, and making sure she eats tons of tacos on her wedding day! I’m so excited to celebrate Karissa and Josh and be part of their big day! Can’t wait to see you there!
Samarpit Paul
Best Man
Hello my name is Samarpit. I am the best man. I've known Joshua since grade 7. He will tell you that one the first day of school, he was trying to help me with my lock because I was allegedly struggling. Allegedly I was a hob goblin in response. I do not remember any of this. hence it did not happen. Joshua simply popped into my life and hasn't left. I am most looking forward to busting out my excellent single ladies dance at the reception.
Mary McBeath
Bridesmaid
Hi! My name's Mary, and I'm a bridesmaid for Karissa! I met Karissa because (for some crazy reason) she decided to marry my brother Josh. Being a bridesmaid means so much to me because Karissa is like the older sister I never got to have, and I can’t wait for her to officially be family! I’m super excited to spend time with all the girls, and I’m soooo excited to see Karissa walk down the aisle.
Silas Klassen
Groomsman
Hi, I'm Silas, and I'm one of the groomsmen for Josh and Karissa's wedding! While I first met Karissa at Mill Creek Camp, Josh and I have attended the same church our whole lives. Although we didn't interact much until camp, when Josh and I became good friends, we would participate in games and pranks with other cabins. I'm looking forward to helping the couple as the day approaches to ease the process and make it the best day of their lives (thus far).
Jenna Knott
Bridesmaid
Hey! I’m Jenna Knott: Karissa’s bridesmaid, lifelong friend, and personal hype girl. Karissa and I have been friends since kindergarten (15 years and counting!) and have grown up together through every phase imaginable. I’m so grateful to stand by her side as she starts this next chapter with her person. To me, being a bridesmaid means cheering on a friend for life, keeping the vibes high, and supporting such an incredible couple. I’m so excited to celebrate with you all—see you on the dance floor!
Jacob McBeath
Groomsman
I’m Jacob, Josh’s young and fit brother. Josh has known me since he was the age of 2. We have done many things together that will best not be mentioned in this paragraph (as now is neither the time nor the place). He is a great brother and someone I could always count on especially to beat the pod racing level on Lego Star Wars. I never imagined he would be married before me, but I know he is going to be an amazing husband and I am very happy for the both of them and look forward to keeping him in line during the wedding.
Julia Roth
Bridesmaid
Hi! My name is Julia and I am one of Karissa’s bridesmaids. I have known Karissa for quite sometime. I was blessed to attend the same elementary and high school with her, and ever since then we have been good friends. Karissa has been a constant friend in my life for many years. She is someone who is intentional with her time, continues to show up for people and has the kindest heart. For anyone who knows Karissa this will be no surprise to you. I am so honoured to be a part of her and Josh’s wedding. I have been able to watch this couple grow together over several years and I can’t wait to stand beside them as they begin this new chapter of life together. I am very excited to see Karissa on her wedding day, she glows on a normal day, but I know she will make a beautiful bride. And of course I can’t wait to celebrate and dance the night away!
Corbin Roberts
Groomsman
I'm Corbin, one of the groomsmen, and I first met Josh on a bantam football team almost 8 years ago. We shared many of the same classes in high school, and we're teammates on the football, basketball and golf teams during our time there. Lots of road trips, practices and early morning workouts, as well as the endless quote dropping of studio C, Dude Perfect, and random references are a large part of how I know Josh. The thing I am looking forward to most is seeing the efforts of Karissa and Josh come to fruition for their big day! So much work is put into this by the two of them, and it will be a great moment to see it all come together this summer.
Ezra Isleifson
Groomsman
My name is Ezra Isleifson. I am one of the groomsmen and I am in this wedding party because I was lucky enough to witness the first time Josh and Karissa met while working at summer camp together and I was there on that fateful camping trip where they chose each other for life. I am looking forward to partying all night with my friends and making lifelong memories.
