Wedding Party
Maddy Erickson
Matron of Honor
Maddy is the bride's twin sister. They have been connected from day one, and she is the perfect person standing by Kaylah's side when she says, "I do." Maddy is married to the groomsman, Colin, and they have two children together. Asher, who is one of the ring bearers, and Lucy! This day would not be complete without her! She flew all the way down from Minnesota. She is such an important person in Kaylah's life, and it only makes sense for her to be the Matron of Honor!
Lexie Walstad
Bridesmaid
Lexie is Kaylah's younger sister by 1.5 years, so she is often considered Kaylah's second twin! They went to college together at St. Leo University (where she met Bruce, Long-haired and all!), played lacrosse together, and lived together in Orlando until 2022. They were INSEPARABLE! She lived with Bruce for many of those years and considers Bruce her brother already. She got to see Kaylah and Bruce's relationship grow and is the perfect person to stand by their sides on their big day!
Kelly Walstad
Bridesmaid
Kelly is the youngest of Kaylah's sisters. Kelly would often visit college and Orlando, so she has had the opportunity to see their relationship throughout the years and has always been by their side. Bruce and Kelly already act like brother and sister, whether that be through sending memes on Instagram, poking fun at each other, or just joking around at family gatherings. Kelly brings the goofy side out in them both. We are so blessed to have Kelly part of our big day!
Leah Sherman
Bridesmaid
Leah and Kaylah met in college back in 2016. She was part of the Lacrosse team, but was also Kaylah's (and Lexie's) roommate. Lexie, Kaylah, and Leah were a trio in college and still have an extremely tight relationship. Despite living all the way in Philadelphia, Leah is one of those friends who is always there for Kaylah and has the biggest heart! She also had the opportunity to meet and hang out with Bruce quite a lot in school (being Kaylah's Roommate) and knew they would be married one day!
Katie Larson
Bridesmaid
Katie was the first person Kaylah knew when she arrived at St. Leo. They are both from Minnesota, and she helped Kaylah get into the swing of things as a new college student! They both played lacrosse, so they spent a lot of time together. Their friendship is one of those that stays the same no matter how far they live apart or how much time passes! It only makes sense for her to stand next to Kaylah on the big day!
Anna D'Aoust
Bridesmaid
Anna and Kaylah met back in 2015 when they were freshmen in college at St Leo. They both played lacrosse, and their friendship really grew when she started dating her now husband, Jason! Bruce and Jason were roommates and are best friends to this day. Anna has always cheered on their relationship and has been waiting for us to say I do for a very long time. She has always been a supporter and someone they have always imagined by their side!
Anthony Galarza
Best Man
Anthony and Bruce have been best friends since they were kids. They lived in the same neighborhood growing up and were inseparable. Anthony's family treated Bruce as one of their own. Anthony helped shape Bruce into the person he is today.
Jason D'Aoust
Groomsman
Jason and Bruce met in college; they were roommates and teammates all four years and continued their friendship. Kaylah met Jason when she was a Freshman and was the cupid to his now wife Anna.
Gabriel Agular
Groomsman
Gabe and Bruce knew each other before they could even talk. They lived across the street from one another, and Bruce always felt like part of his family. Gabe lived with Kaylah, Bruce, and Lexie for a year in Orlando and really grew a strong bond. Gabe has the biggest heart, an infectious laugh, and will always be a big part of Bruce and Kaylah's lives. They couldn't be more excited for him to be part of their big day!
Nick Walstad
Groomsman
Nick is Kaylah's big brother! He has a personality that can light up a room and knows how to have a good time! He blessed our family with his daughter, Ellie (one of our flower girls), and we are so honored to have him part of our big day. Bruce and Nick clicked the first time they met, and Nick is more than excited to add another brother to the family!
Colin Erickson
Groomsman
Colin is the matron of honors' husband, the father to one of the ring bearers (Asher), and to little Lucy Lee! He is like another big brother to Kaylah, and he and Bruce always know how to have a good time when they are together. The three of them are the best fishermen on Lake Inguadona! Kaylah and Bruce are blessed to have him as part of their wedding!
Conner Knarsboro
Groomsman
Bruce and Conner met at a high school lacrosse tournament, then shortly after became teammates at Saint Leo. They were roommates and teammates throughout college. Best friends on and off the field.
