Kara & Josh
Wedding Party
Kirsten Zelenak
Matron of Honor
Kirsten is Kara's older sister, although the two are often mistaken for twins. Kirsten is a hardworking mom who balances work and time with her family. She has two beautiful kids, Abigail (flower girl) and Wesley (ring bearer). She is a very active mom and keeps her kids busy between dance classes, swimming lessons, and fun adventures to new places! She and Kara are very close despite the distance between them.
Scott Dunagan
Best Man
Scott from Scotland. The Best Man. Scott and Josh met sophomore year at Mines and have been close buds ever since. Scott may be a foot taller than Josh, but they don't let it come between them. Scott graduated with Josh in Petroleum Engineering. They were roommates for a couple years when they moved down to Houston and enjoy getting together whenever they can in between their busy work schedules.
Victoria Williams
Bridesmaid
Victoria is Kara's long time friend; since middle school! Even though she went to college in Philadelphia and has lived in the Northeast ever since, they are still very close and can spend 5+ hours talking on the phone at a time! Victoria is a hardworking nurse and is currently working on her Master's to become a Nurse Practitioner. She loves to travel the world, and she and Kara love to travel together too - just last year they went to Bali and experienced a trip of a lifetime watching monkeys, exploring temples, and doing yoga!
Tamer Elsayed
Groomsman
Tamer's first encounter with Josh was in the freshman dorms at Mines. His first thought was "Who is that annoying kid down the hall making all of that noise?!" He eventually got to know Josh, and they became good friends. Tamer graduated with Josh in Petroleum Engineering and eventually made his way down to Houston where he enjoys his free time watching Game of Thrones and Hodge Twins.
Bethany Ho
Bridesmaid
Bethany is the second oldest and arguably the smartest of the Ho family. She graduated Summa Cum Laude with a BA in Biology from Scripps. She is currently in her second year of med school, working hard and excelling as always. Bethany is a talented photographer and deserves all the credit for how great Kara and Josh's engagement pictures turned out. She also enjoys out-performing her older brother by doing crazy things like climbing four 14ers in one day.
Stephen Dunn
Groomsman
Another Scottsman that Josh met in Houston. Stephen and Josh traveled the entire state of Texas together and narrowly escaped being abducted by aliens at Area 51. Stephen enjoys photography and partaking in excruciating, but inspiring trail ultramarathons. Don't worry if you don't understand his accent, you aren't the only one!
Grace Ho
Bridesmaid
Grace is the third of the Ho gang. She is currently studying to become a Mechanical Engineer at Colorado School of Mines, and is interested especially in biomechanics. When she's not busy studying, doing homework, or working on campus as a barista, she enjoys working out, being creative (she is a talented artist!), and spending time with her dog.
Luke Allen
Groomsman
Luke is one of Josh's great buddies all the way back from freshman year of high school when they were in cross country. They crossed paths a few times in college and then again when Luke moved down to Houston last year. Luke enjoys being a world traveler in between 60 hour work weeks!
Michaela Ho
Bridesmaid
Michaela is the eldest of the infamous quads. She is 5' of pure positive energy. She has been voted at school as "most likely to be your boss". She, like Bethany, is also the smartest of the Ho gang, and she aspires to be a veterinarian.
Levi Ho
Groomsman
Levi is the second oldest of the quads and is a force to reckon with when playing board games. He always has a positive outlook on life and enjoys his time doing anything he can not to think about school!
Elizabeth Ho
Bridesmaid
Elizabeth is the youngest girl of the Ho gang, but just as smart and ambitious as the rest! She is busy taking a full academic load with several AP classes despite it being senior year, and is debating all the different career paths she could embark upon. Like Kara, she loves cats, and helped take care of Kara's foster kittens this past summer!
James Ho
Groomsman
James is the youngest of the Ho gang. But don't you worry, he has a personality that more than makes up for it! James aspires to be the best engineer in the Ho family. He is a diehard Broncos fan, even though they can't manage to pull a season together; but it is ok because Notre Dame is going all the way!
