Katelin & Justin
Wedding Party
Coral Matheus
Matron of Honor
Coral was Katy's next door in-the-house neighbor for 18 years. She was known for sneaking into Katy's room for sleepovers to avoid the boogie men of the Brookwood nieghborhood. Years later they would reunite as roommates in New York City, their best years yet. After all this time, nothing keeps these two apart. Especially a good John Mayer or Michael Jackson tune. - Coral
Joshua Matheus
Best Man
Josh and Justin must have been separated at birth. Strangers up until the night of March 2, 2019. A little Mexican food, an Off-Broadway show, salsa dancing, and New York City night life with the Zelon sisters was the start of a brotherhood that would last forever. Having a little more Zelon family experience under his belt, Josh has been a guiding voice to avoiding some of his own mistakes. Josh has learned from Justin too. When life gives you 12 hour car rides with the Zelon family, you just have to say "Shaka brah". Josh can't wait to officially call Justin his brother in April! - Josh
Caitlin Borek
Bridesmaid
Caitlin met Katy in 2015 by running up and hugging her as she walked into rehearsal at 9:00 am exclaiming "John Gurdian told me we were going to best friends!" John was absolutely correct. It took one day for these two to become besties, spending most nights together in Wisconsin singing to Hamilton, playing werewolf, and eating cheese. That friendship only grew when Caitlin moved to NYC, eventually becoming Katy's roommate. Sharing a love for puppies, scary movies, being outside, and bean dip, the Caitlin/Katelins have an unbreakable bond that surpasses time and distance.
Hunter Musser
Groomsman
Justin met Hunter through Scruggs during their adolescent high school days. Hunter almost had to shoot a home invader/party crasher.... That came to fight someone else at his house and refused to leave.... Justin got scared and cried a lot. The rest is history. Hunter met Katy during their adolescent college days. Hunter says it was love at first sight.... Katy's been in love and smitten with Justin ever since. According to Hunter, in recent years feelings became mutual as Justin succumbed to her relentless pursuit of him. Also, Hunter tried to date ALL of Katy's friends. - Hunter
Kaila McWilliams
Bridesmaid
Zelon and Kaila met in the back of the line on night one of college sorority recruitment, and the rest is history. They became fast friends and bonded over their love for musical theatre, choreography, dogs, and Lambda Chi men! Through life's ups and downs and many states often separating them, they've remained the closest of friends. - Kaila
Stephen Burditt
Groomsman
Justin & Stephen first became acquainted in the late nineties, they quickly bonded by ringing the neighbors doorbell and swiftly running away, toilet paper respectfully dangling from the tallest of foliage, obviously. The Dynamic Duo would inevitably develop a fondness for late night video games, firework explosives, and Chinese fire drills, initially allowed by the Hamilton patriarch but ultimately would lead to his follicle demise. Ultimately, Justin moved to the South, Stephen to the West, but the two never missed a rendezvous to continue their adolescent endeavors into adulthood. He will forever be grateful for my friendship with Justin and the Hamilton family. Godspeed on your new life with Katelin! - Steve-O

Whit Hamilton
Ring Security

Meg Chizek
Officiant
Meg and Z met working at Broadway Dance Center. Meg thought Katy was so cool and intimidating and was very surprised that she wanted to be her friend. Meg says Katy taught her everything she knows in the dance world.... and in life. - Meg
Becky Kelley
Flower Brigade
Katy and Becky began their friendship in the halls of Clear Lake High School. Those days were filled with football games, school dances, sleepovers, John Mayer concerts, and Tokyo Bowl sushi. As they've grown up, no matter the distance they continue to be there for each other through life's biggest moments. "The distance cannot matter--ours is a friendship of the heart." -Becky
Brittany Lorin
Flower Brigade
Brittany fell in love with Z the second that Z beelined for her in a studio at BDC and said "You're Brittany? So you're going to OCU next year?" Many Bergasse classes and Blockhead margaritas later, that summer led to them being college roommates and neighbors in NYC. Even though they are on separate coasts, they are always there for the big stuff, good and bad. B is so glad to be here with Z for the BEST day! - Brittany
Elle-May Patterson
Flower Brigade
Elle-May met Katy right as she was getting a ticket for being double parked outside her apartment on 181st St. She then helped Katy carry her two dogs and all their belongings into her sister's apartment before driving 6 hours together as perfect strangers. It was during that rollercoaster of emotions that Elle-May somehow knew she had just found a lifelong friend. It didn't take long for Elle and Katy to attach at the hip during rehearsals for Anything Goes, sharing a mutual respect for each other as people and performers at the foundation of it all. 6 weeks later, they traveled back to NYC and the rest is history! - Elle May
Hope Jameson
Flower Brigade
Katy and Hope met in New York City when Katy needed a last minute replacement on a project. They instantly bonded over their sorority, love for dance, and painful experiences in the NYC online dating scene. Hope likes to think she has been Katy's muse ever since :) - Hope
Kristen Talbot
Flower Brigade
Kristen met Justin through her husband Danny about 6 years ago and instantly loved his laid back personality, depth of their conversations, his openness, drive and amazing engagement with his children. When she met Katy, it was an instant forever type of friendship. Kristen was Katy's first friend in New Orleans and their families have already created many lifelong memories, from baking Christmas cookies to dancing on tables in Tulum. Kristen believes Justin and Katy are a whole vibe and can't wait to get this party started! -Kristen
Lauren Martin
Flower Brigade
Lauren may be the younger sibling, but she never let that stop her from tormenting Justin growing up. She always knew he'd be there to pull her back from the edge or play a game on the Nintendo together. He may have moved miles away to NOLA for college, leaving Lauren all to herself in that long lonesome hallway, but they never miss a beat when they are reunited. - Lauren
Tiffanie Hartenstein

Tiffanie met Justin way back in her first of college. Known to her as "Hammy", they quickly became friends sharing inside jokes that they still laugh about as adults. Tiffanie is now married to Justin's college roommate. When the beautiful Katelin was introduced to her, Tiffanie instantly connected with her as if they had been friends their whole life. So many memories have been built in such a short time and so many more to come! Tiffany is ready to see her two friends tie the knot in true Hammy style!- Tiffanie
