Kimberly & Kerrick
Wedding Party
Katie Andersen
Matron of Honor
Been by my side since day 1! So happy to return the favor of having her be a part of the biggest day in my life. We've always been opposites, but now we've learned to love our differences and have grown closer with every year. Now her expanding family has become another light in my life. Kerrick and I always look forward to Facetimes with our niece and nephew. Love you sissy!
Adriana Mattei
Maid of Honor
While two maids of honors isn't traditional, neither is anything about Adriana. She's been my loving, loyal and unique best friend for almost half my life. 11 friendiversary celebrations later, she deserves a special spot.
Somer Charanek
Bridesmaid
Somer is a member of the Core Four - the best high school squad that still remains best friends. We met junior year of high school when our little friend group instantly fell into place. Somer has ventured the furthest since high school, living in London, NYC and now Philadelphia. She is able to tackle a challenge better than anyone I know!
Alexa Tello
Bridesmaid
When Lex added her contact name into my phone sophomore year of high school as 'Lexi Tello is my best friend <3', I had no idea how right she was! Lex and I met almost nine years ago on our softball team and since then we've all been there for her graduations, 21st birthdays and anything else. Lex is also a member of the Core, but we also lovingly call her our child.
Noelle Hobaica
Bridesmaid
Noelle is a member of the core and was my first 'friend crush'. After meeting Noelle freshman year of high school on our softball team, I knew I wanted to be this girls friend. Luckily enough, we became best friends! Noelle is my go-to for anything sporty and is always down for new adventures with me. Thanks for making life more fun!
Payton Wright
Bridesmaid
No longer my 'baby' sister, Payton has evolved into an independent little teen! We first met when I babysat her as a 3-year-old, so it is still crazy that we have morphed into friends now. I love having Payton keep me in the loop of every new thing she gets to experience and for reminding me to keep trying to be a good role model. Love you sis!
Kelsey Eagle
Bridesmaid
Sometimes I think that Kelsey and I are more alike than me and Kerrick. Kerrick's whole family has become such a big part of my life, and having Kelsey nearby has made post-college life so much better! Kelsey is energetic, sweet and maybe even as weird as me. She's become one of my best friends, but I'm looking forward to having her as a sister as well.
Jasmine Jans
Bridesmaid
Jazzy is quite possibly the craziest gal I've ever met - and it's what makes me love her so much. When we met freshmen year at Gonzaga in our dorm, I thought this girl was way too cool to ever be my friend. When we actually hung out thought, we instantly hit it off. Jazzy always makes me laugh, we have the craziest stories together and I'm lucky enough that she even toured our wedding venue with us!
Alicia Slick
Bridesmaid
Congrats Alicia! Our lovely lady got married this past October and made the most lovely bride. Besides my sister, Alicia is the bridesmaid I've known the longest! Meeting on a softball team together when we were 10, our mom's even got to know each other! After that we went to high school together, college together and eventually both moved to Seattle. If our lives couldn't cross any more, even our partners became great friends! Alicia became my double date buddy, my guidance during wedding planning, and my light on our cloudy Seattle days.
Avery Andersen
Flower Girl
Avery is the best niece Kim and kerrick could ask for. When she is not out on the dance floor, Avery can be found getting her nails done or at chipotle. She is so excited to be a part of our day and we love her so much!
Andrew Andersen
Ring Bearer
Andrew is the smiliest little nugget we’ve ever met. There is a good chance he will try to make a run for it with the rings, but he will wear a little tux better than anyone. We love our little nephew!
Kiel Kenning
Best Man
One of the three musketeers during our childhood. Kiel has practically been by my side since I started my life here in the States. He genuinely enjoys telling the story of how we met back in second grade, which always meant a lot to me. I will always remember the day I was invited to my very first birthday party, and telling my mom I made a friend named Kiel. We've been through everything together which is the reason why he will be standing by my side once again on the wedding day.
Matthew Froehlich (Fro)
Groomsman
The other third of the three musketeers during our childhood. I met Fro on my very first day of Second grade when I was seated right next to him and he proceeded to introduce himself (I had no idea what he was saying to me at the time). We grew up playing soccer together and quoting the movie Anchorman. I'll never forget all the laughs we've had together growing up. Him and his family have always been my second family growing up and we've been through everything together. I'm grateful to have a friend like him forever.
Lars Berglund
Groomsman
I met Lars in middle school when he joined our Japanese class. When we found out that we were both attending Gonzaga, we decided to become roommates, which continued throughout all four years. We've both admitted that we hated each other at times, but he still always had my back when I needed him. We went through the ups and downs of college life together, but came out as best friends in the end. Looking back, I couldn't imagine going through college without him and I'm grateful to have a best friend like him.
Nathan Foster
Groomsman
Nate is the only groomsman that isn't from Alaska. I didn't meet Nate until junior year of college, but it didn't matter because we instantly hit it off. Our love for food and Chelsea Football Club sparked an instant friendship and by the end of college, we were like brothers. Nate recently married his Gonzaga sweetheart Kennedy, and I was honored to be his best man. I'm so happy to have him be a part of my big day this time and I'm excited to see where both of our lives go from here. I'm lucky to have a person like him in my life.
Ben Froehlich
Groomsman
I met Ben back in elementary school when I became friends with his older brother Fro. There were often times where Fro would be too busy since he was Mr. Popular in high school, so Ben and I got to know each other quite well. Ben was always part of the gang and jokingly called the "Cooler" Fro. I was so happy when I found out he decided to go to Gonzaga, and loved seeing him around Spokane. I was even happier when him and Hannah moved out here to Seattle. We've had a ton of fun together over the years and I can't wait to continue it!
Jeremiah Lee
Groomsman
Jeremiah and I went to the same high school but I actually didn't get to know him until we found out we were both going to Gonzaga. I'm so grateful that we became really close because I felt like our personalities were the same. We're both home bodies and antisocial at times, but most importantly, we love the same music. To this day, he still regularly sends me new songs to listen to because he knows I'd like them. He always makes sure that others are doing well, and has also gotten me through some tough times in college. I couldn't imagine not having him in my life.
Jacob Lee
Groomsman
Even though we went to the same high school in Anchorage, I didn't get to know him until we went to Gonzaga together. Even so, we immediately became very close through all of our college shenanigans. He is one of the kindest people I have ever met and he's always thinking of other's before himself. One of things I respect most about him is that he isn't afraid to tell people what's on his mind. He's always a calming person to have around and I'm glad I've met someone like Jacob.
Matthew Marino (Marino)
Groomsman
I met Marino back in elementary school when him and his friends wouldn't let me play football with them at recess. They eventually caved and let me join, which lead to a great friendship down the road. Marino is best known for his famous molette that he surprisingly pulled off. We grew up playing soccer together and wrestling each other to prove who was stronger. For some reason, him and I have always been competitive with each other which actually drove our friendship closer. I'll never forget all of the hilarious memories of us pushing each other's buttons and I can't imagine not having someone like him in my life.
Colin Higbee (Higbee)
Groomsman
Higbee was also among the group that wouldn't let me play football during recess back in elementary school. But ever since they let me join in, him and I have become really close. Higbee has been one of the only few people that have been shorter than me throughout my life. We were always able to bond because of our similar heights. Higbee is known for his infectious laugh which Kiel calls the "Higgy Giggys". I've made so many great memories at his family's cabin, and I've gotten to know him really well through our many deep one-on-one conversations. I'm grateful to have made a friend like him and I hope everyone gets to hear his laugh!
