Wedding Party
Alyssa Loggarakis
Maid of Honor
Alyssa and I met our freshman year of college and have built an everlasting friendship. I honestly could not imagine my life without Alyssa in it. I cherish the bond we have built over the last 10 years and look forward to as many as we are lucky enough to receive. Soul mates don't have to be someone you marry, to me they're just people who make your life complete, and Alyssa is one of the handful of people I would bring into that category.
Jordan Hellriegel
Best Man
Jordan and I have known each other since Freshman year of High School. We somehow managed to always have a class together every semester and year in High School. Even with him living out in California now, I can always count on him to be there for me to talk about anything. He's so ingrained in my family, even my parents pseudo adopted him as their second son.
Caitlin Bailey
Bridesmaid
Cat and I grew up together after becoming friends when I was 9. She hasn’t always lived close by, but we have always stayed friends regardless of distance and time doesn’t seem to have any negative effect on our relationship. Cat is a wonderful mother and a great friend! ❤️
AJ Rohde
Groomsman
My cousin AJ and I have shared tons of great moments together. From bowling together, playing video games together, and taking random trips to Wisconsin or St. Louis. Even though he lives in Washington, I am excited that he is also able to stand up and be able to come out here for my wedding!
Natalie Hobbs
Bridesmaid
Natalie and I met our freshman year at Lewis in our second semester. We were both pledging Sigma Delta Fratority, and bonded through our process together. Since then we have stayed great friends and I'm so happy to have her in my life, even though she now lives in Texas.
Robert Espinosa
Bridesman
Bobby and I have known one another since 2005. We started dating when I was a freshman in high school, and while that relationship didn't work out, our friendship has lasted through the years. His two children are my godsons, and I know that I can always talk to him about anything. It's hard sometimes not being able to see them due to his active military status and being stationed in San Diego, however it's always as if no time has passed.
Ashley Harris
Bridesmaid
Ashley has literally been by my side my entire life. We grew up together and we still see each other every day at work. Even on a bad day, I know she's someone I can always rely on to get me back on my feet and ready to conquer the rest of the day. I couldn't be happier that she is going to be supporting Katie and myself at the alter.
Jake Harris
Groomsman
My sister married Jake into the family and since then he and I have had a strong bond over very similar hobbies. He has taught me a lot about building computers, we have had drum jam nights, and we've played plenty of games together. I'm very happy to have Jake as my brother-in-law and i'm glad we've been able to have such a great friendship.
Mary Trost
Bridesmaid
Mary and I met in college thanks to Sigma Delta. Mary pledged with Alyssa and we all became close friends. Although Mary lives farther away than we would like, we always try and make the effort to see one another as frequently as possible.
Parker Higgins
Groomsman
I met Parker through an online game called Guild Wars 2. I got to know him a lot while playing the game and after we stopped playing GW2, we started to play a lot of other games together. After getting to know him better, I visited him and his wife Allie, where they live in Arizona. Since then, we've met up with them a few times and kept a distant but strong friendship.
Allie Higgins
Groomswoman
I met Allie when I went to Arizona to visit Parker for the first time in 2014. Allie is Parker's wife and even though she did not know me as well as Parker, she still treated me like a friend when I first met her. Katie and Allie became fast friends when I took her down to Arizona again in 2015.
Deirdre McCormick
Bridesmaid
Deirdre and I met in college and have stayed good friends. We love getting together with Alyssa, enjoying some wine, and laughing the night away.
Johnny Ephraim
Bridesman
Johnny and I met our freshman year in college. We were both part of the connections program and had multiple classes together due to that. Over the years Johnny has become one of my closest friends, and in turn my family. Johnny and his parents are one of the best things that have ever happened to me and I treasure our friendship.
Dana Rybarski
Groomswoman
I met Dana back in high school through my best man, Jordan. She's always been like another sister to me and has helped me through a lot. Dana always has an ear open and is the easiest person to talk to about anything. From the late night bonfire chats to trips downtown, Dana can make an adventure out of anything!
George Lessmann
Groomsman
George is my cousin and him and I have always been close. Even with our busy schedules lately, we've still had time to hang out, hit some golf balls, and watch a few marvel movies. I'm very happy he is able to support me on my wedding day.
Christianna Kraus
Bridesmaid
Chrissy is my second cousin on my maternal grandfathers side. We have always been close despite our age difference and living in other states. My favorite vacation was always visiting my east coast family, almost every year for a while. I stood up in her wedding just 5 years ago!
