Wedding Party
Kristin Gavaza
Maid of Honor
Sister, Best Friend and Maid of Honor. Though these two did not always get along, they were always looking out for each other. From fighting off the coyotes in California to supporting each other through the stress of grad school. They even supported each other while going through the world of online dating and ironically entered into their long term relationships at the same time! Kaitlyn is very happy to have been given the gift of a sister she loves and a best friend to go through this crazy journey called life.
Chelsea Parker
Bridesmaid
Chelsea and Kaitlyn have been best friends since middle school, maybe even before Chelsea realized it haha! They were Cali girls stuck in a small town and grew up in each others houses. They have had countless adventures and even went on a cross country road trip together! When the world is not on their side these two always had a partner to cheer them on or a shoulder to cry on and know they can always count on each other. Their friendship is unbreakable and I bet you can find them sipping a glass of wine on the porch in their 80's side by side.
Sarah Robertson
Bridesmaid
Sarah and Kaitlyn have been friends since childhood (even if Sarah can't remember it) and were neighbors when Kaitlyn first moved to Poquoson. They worked at Subway together, were on the sailing team together and were roommates all through college at ODU. Sarah and Kaitlyn have gone through life together side by side and they would not have it any other way. You can find these two best friends constantly laughing at nothing and ready for any ill planned trip at the last minute!
Alexis Higgins-Jessup
Bridesmaid
Alexis and Kaitlyn have known each other since college but became friends working in the ER together and then became great friends in PA school. It seems they were destined to be friends going to the same college, working in the same ER and then going to the same PA school and soon they bonded over their love of wine, games, Harry Potter and a healthy dose of dry humor and sarcasm. Alexis was Kaitlyn's sanity through PA school and now great friend and partner in crime.
Elizabeth Ward
Bridesmaid
Elizabeth and Kaitlyn met in college and through mutual friends began to realize all they had in common. Through their love of races, Harry Potter, games and Happy Hour they soon became great friends. They have been there for each other through the ups and downs of life and always have each other's backs. Their silly attitude and excitement for all events keeps life fun and their friendship strong. Elizabeth is always sure to bring a smile to Kaitlyn's face and be down for any adventure!
Fuzzy Speakman
Best Man
Best man, best friend, and absolute best drinking buddy.
Josh Hinkle
Groomsman
One of the best friends anyone could ask for. Josh will go out of his way to give you the last piece of pizza....what could be a better definition of a best friend than such a selfless act.
Matt Hinkle
Groomsman
Matt has been an amazing friend through the years. Whether we were working on the ferries together or Fuzzy and I were making impromptu visits to Atlanta to see him, Matt is always down for a fun time. And with all the fun he is going to have at our wedding I am sure he won't have a problem keeping his shirt on.
Chad Evancho
Groomsman
Just one word to describe this guy and that is amazing. Chad is one of the most fun people to be around and never met a stranger, from the first time we met it just seemed like we were old friends catching up. Some of my best fishing experiences were all made possible because this guy would drag me out there with him and his family regularly to enjoy a nice beach day.
Chad Shields
Groomsman
Chad is like my brother from another mother. While we can both have pessimist attitudes at times this guy is always down for a good time. Whether we are golfing, bar hopping or just talking about work Chad is always there to lend an ear and hand you a beer.
