Wedding Party
Eric Manning
Best Man
Clocking in at 6'2" and 170 lbs, this brother-of-the-groom is one tall, lean, mean, CPA machine.
Becky Hixon
Maid of Honor
Dr. Becky Jean is Katie’s younger sister and her best friend since birth. She’s seen it all, knows it all, and still agreed to be in this wedding.
Sean Barker
Groomsman
He coulda gone pro for hockey, but he decided to save some for the rest of us. Fun fact: Although they've been friends for years, Sean and Sean still don't have a photo to prove this.
Tori Penaluna
Bridesmaid
Katie and Tori (TorTor44) bonded over graham cracker ice cream and never looked back. Turns out it was a pretty solid foundation for a lifelong best-friendship.
Jordan Rudolph
Groomsman
The man, the myth, the walking motivational quote owner of @unityfitness. A kettlebell in one hand and a protein shake in the other, you can expect to see him win the Wisconsin ProAm tour sometime soon.
Marina Finehout
Bridesmaid
Fast-tracked into friendship with Katie in under 24 hours, powered by a few drinks and homemade mac and cheese. The rest is history.
Matt Mitman
Groomsman
They asked him to be CEO of Amazon, but he turned it down. Matt "Dartmouth" Mitman is the ideal golf scramble partner and anyone would be lucky to have him as a friend.
Allison Stone
Bridesmaid
Katie and Allison were basically forced into friendship in 6th grade. No complaints there—after braces and every awkward phase, there’s not much left to hide.
Tim Jarog
Groomsman
He's single and ready to mingle; you'll just have to be okay with him being a fan of Chicago-based sports teams.
Megan Manning
Bridesmaid
She could tell you about every native flower of Wisconsin, but she made a promise that she won't. She can drink free at Highland House for the rest of her life...ladies and gentlemen, Megan Manning.
Palani Permeswaran
Groomsman
In college: Usually found between problem sets, exams, and the Fieldhouse dance floor. These days, that energy has shifted into woodworking.
Steph Swiatlo
Bridesmaid
Met Katie right as she was graduating college and quickly got trapped in lifelong friendship. Still stuck with her today, obviously fueled by wine and hours-long FaceTimes.
