Sarah & Chris
Wedding Party
Anne Machian
Matron of Honor
Sarah met Anne during her first week at K-State and they became fast friends after joining the same sorority. Anne and Sarah have shared so many fun memories throughout the years - ask her about the time they ran a 5K dressed as Minions! Sarah couldn't imagine her special day without Anne by her side, just like she was that day at the Rec Center all those years ago.
Jeremy Davila
Best Man
Chris and Jeremy met at Avila University in 2008 when they were teammates on the football team and became good friends during Chris's first semester in school. Chris and Jeremy have also worked together at Sugar Daddy's Lemonade for the last decade at various shows and festivals around the region. They can often be found trading recommendations for the latest movies and TV shows they have seen.
Diane Bretz
Bridesmaid
Sarah met Diane through Alpha Chi Omega and they became close friends after spending a semester as roommates in the chapter house. Diane is always the one to suggest spontaneous, fun ideas and it makes friendship with her the best kind of adventure!
John Hicks
Groomsman
Chris has known John since the second grade. John was one of Chris's first friends when he moved to Blue Springs from the Baltimore area. They stayed good friends through their years at school and were roommates at Avila University both in the dorms and off campus.
Kathryn McDaniel
Bridesmaid
Kathryn is Sarah's little sister - not by blood but by choice! During their time in Alpha Chi Omega they were paired as Big & Little and the family bond has lasted well beyond college. Sarah and Kathryn share a love of musicals, a capella singing, and their goofy pet's antics.
Marc Witt
Groomsman
Chris first met Marc during his freshman season of football at Avila University. Though Marc moved to Florida after one year at Avila he and Chris kept in touch. Marc moved back to the Kansas City area in the summer of 2017 and joined the Sugar Daddy's Lemonade crew. He and Chris have been working weekend festivals together ever since.
Patricia Murphy
Bridesmaid
Sarah and Patricia first met in their sorority in college and they became good friends and roommates. They shared their first apartment after graduating from K-State, where they spent many a late night hanging out in the living room working on crochet projects and trying out new recipes.
Chris Morefield
Groomsman
Chris Smith and Chris Morefield, known as Smitty and Morefield respectively to avoid too much confusion, first met during their high school years as opponents on the football field. Despite attending rival high schools, they were able to set aside those differences once they got to college as teammates at Avila University. They became good friends and then roommates in an off-campus house. These days they are almost neighbors and live just a few blocks from each other.
Frankie Northern
Flower Girl
Frankie is Chris's niece - but if you ask her, Sarah is her favorite because she is "cute and adorable"!
