Kathryn & Robert
Wedding Party
Erin Gaines
Matron of Honor
Erin and Kat met at Good Intent Cidery, when Kat had the pleasure of training her on her first shift. After spending a few hours together, they both had a sense that they would become great friends. If their friendship could be captured in a picture, it would be them sitting on the roof talking about life, love and Jesus over a glass of cider. Her genuine heart, her innate wisdom, her fun-loving nature - these are just a few of the countless reasons why we love her!
Nathan Stupar
Best Man
Nate and Rob have been each other's sounding boards and biggest fan since they were kids - best friends by blood and by choice! Get them together and it's football talk, words of encouragement, and friendly competition!
Jami Adams Fili
Bridesmaid
One fateful day in 2008, Kat had just started a hostess job at Chili's, when Jami the waitress approached her to hang out after work. They had a Stepbrothers "did we just become best friends?" moment... and the answer was yes! Jami exemplifies patience, as loving Kat through her teenage years and helped her grow as a young woman in years that followed. Never has someone made Kat ugly-cry and laugh coffee out of her nose like Jami has!
Jon Stupar
Best Man
The eldest of the Stupar boys has been entertaining the masses with his tall tales and unique theories since the mid-eighties. He’s #2 on this list, but #88 in our hearts - and on the 2009 Buffalo Bills roster! Kidding aside, Jon is an amazing brother, husband and father of three. His heart for people is something to be admired!
Whitney Buterbaugh
Bridesmaid
Whitney was Kat’s first true friend in State College! Whitney lives passionately, follows her heart, works hard, and inspires everyone around her. From those early coffee dates to the now double-date dinners, complete with baby Kennedi, growing with her has been a highlight of Kat’s life! Her friendship has blessed us beyond measure.
Tony Marrara
Groomsman
As Rob’s “Redneck Dad,” Tony has spent many a hunting season sharing the fundamentals of sportsmanship. Their friendship is deeper than hunting and fishing, though; Tony’s loyalty, sense of humor and generous spirit are qualities that make him such a joy to be around. And, he’s the best dang chiropractor on the Benner Pike, we guarantee it!
Laura Faro
Bridesmaid
Laura and Kat became quick friends when she came to a Wednesday night small group at church. A ray of sunshine in any situation, her bubbly warmth was apparent from their first "hello!" She is the definition of "fun," bringing a healthy dose of enthusiastic kindness wherever she goes. Beyond that, though, her friendship runs deep and her compassionate heart is as extraordinary as it is sweet.
Jason LaMora
Groomsman
Jason’s friendship means the world to Rob, and he’s so glad to have another brother through marriage! Jason is wise and slow to speak, which is interesting because he drives way too fast. Thanks, Jason, for your “get out of jail free” card! #cops
Danielle Laird
Bridesmaid
You know that feeling of closeness you have after sharing a bed with someone for two weeks in Madagascar? Danielle and Kat do. They have a special bond that only traveling the world together can bring! Her sweet, mushy heart is matched only by her incredible strength and intuition - she is Wonder Woman. Her friendship is a delight, and she challenges us for the better each day!
Noah Taylor
Groomsman
It was a sunny day in Youngstown, OH, when Rob and Noah’s Step Brothers-esque friendship began to bloom. College roommates in the “Dirty Dub C’s”, they’ve seen each other through some of their greatest challenges, always ready to offer support and celebrate the victories on the other side. Noah’s humor and wittiness have brought Rob much joy over the years. But don’t get him on the phone unless you have 90 minutes to spare!
Brock Albitz
Groomsman
Good ole reliable Brock! What’s not to love about a good friend, an excellent father, and a true American. He has always been an encouragement to Rob, his cheerful nature spilling into every conversation.
