Mother of the Groom
Mom is originally from New York and lives in Morristown, New Jersey in the house that Mom and Dad purchased before John was born. Mom and Dad, Henry A. Berleth, celebrated fifty five years of marriage together before his passing in 2016. Mom has a beautiful garden that includes some special specimens that her father planted many years ago. She always cooks delicious meals for us and provides delicious treats every time we see her. We tease her that she's our Trader Flo's. Mom adores her two grandsons Naoki and Sota.
Mother of the Bride
Mom is originally from Germany and grew up in Santiago, Chile were she met Kristin's late father Herbert (aka Perico) Müller. They moved a lot during their adventurous marriage and enjoyed thirty years together before Perico's passing in 1995. She is the mother of five children and step mother to three and is a grandmother of twenty-two people.
Maid of Honor
Karli is Kristin's eldest daughter. She's a Landscape Architect currently living in Miami. Karli, her boyfriend Jason, and two cats (Annabelle and Barnaby) will be moving to Cambridge, MA just before the wedding so Karli can begin working for Reed Hilderbrand.
