Wedding Party
Anna Meyer

In her spare time, she fosters cats for Second Chance and has given the bride her love for cats.
Brianna Considine
Bridesmaid
Brianna is the bride's sister. She happens to be the middle sister and often mediated arguments between the bride and their other sister, Mary, when they were children. Bri now works at Shakespeare's Pizza and is the reason that Dj and Katie met! In her spare time, she loves improving her makeup artist skills. (You'll get to see some of her handiwork on the bride on the wedding day!)
Mary Considine

Mary is the youngest of the three Considine sisters. Mary and the bride have become much better friends since their days of childhood arguing. Mary works at Harold's Donuts in Columbia, where she gets to use her baking skills. She loves to bake in her spare time as well and you'll have a chance to taste some of her awesome creations during the wedding reception!
Chelsea Cross
Bridesmaid
Chelsea is one of the bride's best friends. They met while teaching at the same school during their first year of teaching! Chelsea's favorite grade to teach was Kindergarten--so it's no surprise that she is an incredibly trustworthy, encouraging, and fun person.
Gwen Eveler
Bridesmaid
Gwen is a friend of the bride. Katie met Gwen because Gwen's brother, Nate, was dating his now wife, Danelle, who happened to be Katie's roommate at the time!

Gwen is that great friend that listens, rants, and eats junk food with you when life seems not so great--no matter what time or place.
