Wedding Party
Anna Jordan
Matron of Honor
Meet Anna - Matron of Honor Extraordinaire Sister, best friend, and confidante, Anna is a dream. She is simply the life of the party. She adds an extraordinary amount of joy and fun to any room she walks into. I call her, probably an annoying amount of times a week, for advice, straight giggles, or if I just need to vent. I love her with every part of my being.

Chris
Best Man
Chris Pranger is Colin’s oldest (first) friend. They met when they were 4 years old, in preschool together at Cory Elementary, and the two have been intrinsically tied to each other ever since. Only a quick 27 years later, with countless van rides to soccer tournaments, basketball games, Call of Duty sessions, CU classes, Ocean’s 11 references, and Candlelight Lounge nights, they still find their friendship evolving and growing stronger with each passing year. Colin wouldn’t be Colin without his pal Chris, and there’s no one better he could imagine by his side as best man. Here’s to another 27–heck, let’s make it 50–years of friendship together!
Teddy
Groomsman
Colin and Teddy's brotherhood of the strange and absurd began in Mrs. Filholm's AP English class at Mullen High School in 2011, somewhere between the pages of Henry James' Turn of the Screw and DJ Screw's Chopped & Screwed Mixtapes. The two quickly discovered that their shared interests were uniquely aligned, building what would become a lifelong friendship on the core tenants of hip-hop, movies, and Mexican food. After navigating the Boulder college experience together, Teddy moved to California to pursue his Ph.D, but the friendship remains strong as ever, and the two dudes look forward to a lifetime of Larry David references, movie discussions, and Las Delicias burritos in each other’s company.
Nolan
Groomsman
When he really takes a step back and thinks about it, Colin honestly can't remember how or when or where he first really met Nolan in Boulder, Colorado…but like anyone who's ever met the good Doctor himself, life was never the same after. As their friendship has developed over the years, Colin found in his pal Nolan a friend and consigliere of the highest quality—loyal, trustworthy, and positive through and through, all the things Colin hopes to be to his friends, too. Honey, Nolan’s dog, is also Colin‘s niece and goddaughter, which has to count for something.
John
Groomsman
Colin first met John at Washington Park, the summer before his freshman year of high school. John worked alongside Colin’s older sister Melanie at the rec center, and Colin noticed that Melanie laughed a little different when John was around. John was the coolest guy Colin had probably met up to that point, which made it all the merrier when Melanie said yes to marrying John about 7 years later. Since then, Colin has enjoyed spending time with his sister and brother-in-law together, and their boy William and his soon-to-be born baby brother Joey are the light of Colin and Julia’s lives.
Austin
Groomsman
Colin and Austin first met at CU Boulder sometime in the early to mid 2010s. Don’t worry, there’s more! Austin, aside from being one of the best dudes on this side of the Rockies and probably the other side too, is a sweet, silly friend and a damn competent feller. He and his wonderful wife Alexa are quick to plan and partake in a game night, share a cucumber G&T or Coors Banquet, and enjoy some delicious food and delightful conversation. Colin counts himself lucky to call Austin his friend and groomsman, and is looking forward to a Murphy Mule or two with him and Alexa on the wedding day.
Jack
Groomsman
Jack Jack, what a guy. A mensch! Husband to Julia’s sister Anna, father to dog Howdy, and friend to all who are not lame, Jack can make just about anyone in the room keel over with laughter and feel like they’re a part of something cool. Colin remembers that he felt he could truly count Jack as a friend (and soon-to-be brother-in-law) when Jack rescued a very lost Colin on the subway from Brooklyn heading into Manhattan. Jack was kind enough to include Colin in his bachelor party that night, and invite him into his rich world of friends and fun. Colin can’t believe he gets to have another brother so awesome by his side on the big day.
