Claudia & Katie
Wedding Party
Brooke Weinreich
Matron of Honor
Brooke and I (Katie) have been best friends for more than 12 years and known one another for most of our lives. From nights I don't remember, to laughs I will never forget- you have been my main. Thank you for being the person I need when I am at my most ratchet, and leaving the judgement at the door (and being ratchet with me lol). This woman has always had my back, and I am honored to say we have chosen one another as family! I could not begin to imagine my life and wedding day without my ride-or-die by my side!
Katie James
Maid of Honor
Katie and I (Katie) met in college when I was a freshman, and has been my little since 2010. Katie is a spicy ball of southern sass, but always made sure to have my back. College had some ups and downs, but she was my silver-lining! What started as a drunken-duo, ended in a lifelong friendship! I am so excited to share my day with you!
Jamie Baker
Bridesmaid
Jamie and I met through my ex-girlfriend... and even though that was a flop (lol) she stuck! She opened her heart and home to our friendship, and I wouldn't be the person I am without her!. From coffee dates to homemade moscow mules, I am so blessed to have this selfless human in my life to celebrate with!
Brittany Mobley
Bridesmaid
Britt and I met in my senior year in college. We played basketball together at Mars Hill College during my final season. Even though it was a short time together, the bond we created has become unbreakable! Britt never misses a beat in my life and having her by my side is a MUST! I cannot wait to throw down with my bro on the greatest day of my life!
Rick Brown
Bridesman
Capt has been the father I (Katie) often needed, the brother to protect me, and the best friend I never saw coming. This man has filled a void in my life that had been empty for quite some time. Claudia and Capt have been working at Tampa Fire together for years and have formed an unbreakable bond. We are so honored to be two of "his girls" and endlessly thankful for all that he does for our family. We are blessed to have him with us on the most important day or our lives!
Kate Wenzel
Bridesmaid
Kate has been one of the brightest beams of light to come into our lives. She is constantly going above and beyond for our family to make us feel loved and supported- and is the greatest karaoke singer we have ever met! We may not go back as far, but the impact she has made on us is one for a lifetime. We are blessed to call this gorgeous creature our family and are honored to have her with us on our special day!
Katie FIler
Bridesmaid
Katie and I (Katie) met at GIW in 2018 and have been "busy" building our friendship ever since. From concerts and clubs to relaxing beach days and Tupperware dates- we have rallied through the good times and bad, always finding a way back to each other. This girl is such an inspiration to my life and one of the most loyal humans I have ever met. This day will be the most epic rally yet, and it just wouldn't be the same without her with me! #thekatiesarebusy
Kim Robinson
Matron of Honor
Kim and I (Claudia) met in 2015 at Girl's in Wonderland. She came up to me and said, "I know you from Instagram, and I know girls like you aren't usually friends with girls like me. So can we be friends?" Thus the creation of the truest form of friendship I have ever known. Kim has been by my side with unconditional love and support, and even surprised me on my 30th and flew to Montana! She is a ball of fun and completely unpredictable! Kim always makes our time together memerable and I never regret a second (well, maybe not lol). From car karaoke to mosh pitting- I am honored to have you by my side on the best day of my life!
Stacey Flemming
Bridesmaid
Stacey and I (Claudia) met in 2009 at Ocala Fire College. She asked to become my roommate, because the other girl she lived with was "gay"...so clearly we were a match made in heaven. From the late night (underage) shenanigans to watching her become the greatest mother I have ever known, Stacey has been a whole different definition of family. We share a family at Tampa Fire, but choose each other regardless. I am so excited to share another memory together on my wedding day!
Nicole Seidman
Bridesmaid
Nicole and I (Claudia) have been best friends for 15 years. We met in 2005 at a mutual friends party over a game of beer pong (we were "totally" 21 lol). What started as a party acquaintance, became an everlasting friendship. We have been through some ups and downs, but our friendship always came out on the better side of things. After watching her grow personally and professionally, I am so excited to create another milestone in our friendship!
Jaime Filer
Bridesmaid
Jaime and I (Claudia) met in 2018 at Pensacola Pride. We found out quickly that we shared many of the same passions, and became inseparable. As my "fellow Canadian" and I battled through some ups and downs, our friendship grew stronger than ever. She has supported me in every venture, and I am so blessed to have her supporting my greatest moment in marrying my best friend.
Katie Williams
Bridesmaid
Katie is my younger sister (Claudia) and mother to my two beautiful God-Children. From sharing a bedroom when we were younger (and her holding my hand when I had nightmares) to happy hour on a rough day, my sister and I have always shared a very strong bond. I have watched her go through some of her hardest and most beautiful moments, and am blessed for her to be apart of mine. I am so happy God chose her as my blood, but I get to chose her in every other moment.
Joshua Nadeau
Bridesman
Joshua is my younger brother (Claudia). I spent most of my days training him for fake battles, teaching him how to hit a home runs, and watching him get stitches from hitting him in the face with the bat. We played cops and robbers, rode our bikes, and played shark attack in the pool at night. Josh may have had a rough childhood with all three sisters, but I have watched him become a great man and even greater husband. I am sorry for all the bruises, but I am thankful to have you by my side on my wedding day!
Jessica Nadeau
Bridesmaid
Jessica is my older sister (Claudia) and mother to my canine nephew, Theodore. Jessica has been my O.G. car karaoke, and Mario Cart partner since we were old enough to walk. We share a love for the beach and spent some of my favorite moments together there. Although we used to kick our shoes as far as we can (to see who was better lol) my walk down the isle will be much different. I couldn't imagine doing this day without her by my side.
