Wedding Party
Erin Altschuler
Maid of Honor
Erin and I (Katie) became friends junior year of college when Erin was my senior resident assistant. Our friendship evolved into the world's most iconic roommate duo, and now the rest is history! Erin is one of the most helpful and selfless people on the planet.
Kathryn Vaughn
Bridesmaid
Kathryn is my (Katie's) oldest friend. I met Kathryn when I was just six months old. Our friendship has gone from participating in church Christmas pageants and sleepovers to weekly dinners in Brooklyn in our adult lives. Kathryn is one of the kindnest human beings in the world and also makes some bomb meals (no, sorry, she can't cater our wedding. She's busy that day).
Grayson Mathews
Bridesmaid
Grayson and I (Katie) met during our first years of teaching together at Margaret Brent! I knew Grayson was destined to be in my life when I heard her rapping in the doorway of her classroom across the hall. The rest is history. Grayson's strength (both inside and out, MMA style) has been a constant example to me and for that I am so grateful.
Shannon Keene
Bridesmaid
Shannon and I (Katie) met when we were both in grad school! Our friendship grew so quickly when we just so happened to get a job at the same school our first year of teaching. Shannon will always be my one true "teacher bestie". Shannon is the type of person who will go to the moon and back for you if you are lucky enough to be her friend.
Laney Parrott
Bridesmaid
Laney was my (Katie's) mentor when I was a first-year teacher in Stafford County! After Laney asked me if she wanted to grab a beer before the school year started, Katie knew this friendship was meant to be. Laney is literal sunshine in a human, just wait until you meet her!
Jacob Atkinson
Best Man
Jacob has been my (Jackson's) best friend since we were roommates freshman year of college (after not exactly getting along for a few months). Jacob is truly one of the kindest people I know and I am so grateful to have such a caring and loyal friend.
Pierce Downey
Groomsman
My brother, Pierce, has always been there to support me when things get tough. Pierce is the type of person who is always unapologetically himself, and for that I admire him so much. But if he says that he’s better than me at Smash Bros, he’s lying.
Connor Downey
Groomsman
Connor and I (Jackson) go way back. Not only do we have being brothers in common, but we also share the same sense of humor and a passion for making the world a better place for all.
Marc Krudop
Groomsman
Marc and I (Jackson) met during college freshman year. Throughout college and in the following years, Marc has proven to be one of the hardest-working and most inspiring people I know. I am so grateful for his friendship.
