Joy Regitz
Mother of the Bride
Mama Joyseph is Kristen's mom! None of this would be possible without her and her father's hard work! This section is to just thank you for all you do! <3
Breanna Yarnell
Sister of the Groom
Bre and James are not just siblings, they are best friends. They have been each other's rock when life has gotten hard. Their relationship is like no other! Kristen actually used to coach Bre and that's how she met James, so Bre is a huge part in their relationship and they are so thankful for her!
Mike Regitz
Father of the Bride
Big Mike is Kristen's dad! He has been so patient and generous throughout this process. Thank you so much for all you do! <3
James Yarnell Sr.

Aliza Wagner
Matron of Honor
Kristen and Aliza have been best friends since high school. They connected through their love of cheerleading, but soon found many other interests in common. They both love a good wine night and traveling together. Although Aliza lives in Myrtle Beach, SC now, their friendship remains unmatched!
Jake Sabo
Best Man
Jake and James have been friends since they were little. They easily bonded over football and even played together. They used to go to Taco Bell before all their high school football games. Even through the distance when James was in the Marines, they remained the best of friends and still hang out all the time.
Abbey Borroughs
Matron of Honor
Kristen and Abbey have been friends since they coached at Easton together. They both had a passion for cheerleading. Once Kristen no longer coached at Easton, her and Abbey's friendship didn't stop. They vent to each other all the time about every inconvenience, and love to just chill at home with some wine together for hours at a time. Abbey is also a wedding planner whose colors are truly showing throughout this process. Kristen is very thankful to have someone to go to about all the questions related to the wedding. She's a true blessing!!!
Casey Curley
Best Man
Casey was James's mentor in the Marine Corps. These two would hammer a six pack and golf during their downtime. Even though they argue like siblings, their bond has become unbreakable.
Tia Allen
Bridesmaid
Kristen and Tia have a special relationship. Tia has been with Kristen's brother, Michael, for several years and will be Kristen's sister-in-law in November (officially). Both Kristen and Tia are getting married this year, so it's been a great time for them to converse and wedding plan together. They share the common interests of drinking wine and coffee. ;)
Michael Regitz
Groomsman
Michael is Kristen's younger brother. Him and James have grown close over the past couple of years and enjoy playing video games together.
Brennan Morell
Bridesmaid
Kristen met Brennan in college on the Bloomsburg cheerleading team. Brennan and Kristen were immediate friends. Brennan basically lived with Kristen during her senior year. They were inseparable. Whenever you saw one of them, the other was not far behind. Even though Kristen graduated first and moved back home, they remained super close and try to visit each other once a month!
Dakota Wise
Groomsman
Dakota, better known as Wise, is another Marine buddy. Wise definitely came on lots of dates with Kristen and James when Kristen would go out to California to visit. One of the first times Kristen met Wise, James had a meeting and Wise actually spent the day with Kristen exploring the California coast. Even after getting out of the Marines, these two have remained friends and once Wise moves back to Maryland, they will hang out a lot more.
Tiffany Dennis
Bridesmaid
Tiffany was actually Kristen's very first friend! They have known each other since basically Kristen was born! They grew up on the same street and would hang out almost every day making up dances, playing hide and seek in the dark, and eating a tablespoon of sugar to stay up as late as they could. Even through all of these years, they still consider each other best friends!
Edward Fritts
Groomsman
Edward, better known as Fritz, is an all around legend. Even though James met Fritz recently, they have grown extremely close. Fritz is always at the house coming up with absurd plans for him and James to do such as going to see Disney on Ice, going to the strip clubs, and teaching James to snowboard.
Ally Brown
Bridesmaid
Ally is Kristen's cousin! They have been close ever since Ally was born. They love going to the winery, especially if Ally is singing, Kristen loves to go support her little cousin and enjoy the fun atmosphere. Kristen and Ally have also gone to many concerts together with their most recent being Carrie Underwood on February 19!
Ethan Coon
Groomsman
Ethan, otherwise known as Coon, worked in the same duty station as James in the Marine Corps. James and Coon loved going to Raising Cane's together. Coon went with James when he got his chest tattoo. Their friendship is unbreakable.
Steph Kocher
Bridesmaid
Although Steph isn't technically Kristen's cousin, Kristen always refers to her as one. Steph has been there since Kristen was born. They grew especially close when Steph had kids, and Kristen would babysit her kids. Now, Kristen and Steph share a love for wine (she even got Kristen to drink red wines!) and Carrie Underwood!!
Greg Kocher
Officiant
Greg couldn't be a better fit for James and Kristen. He will absolutely make it fun and short, yet super meaningful. Thanks so much, Greg!
Madison Kocher
Junior Bridesmaid
Madison is actually Steph's daughter! Kristen watched Madison, so Steph could go to work when Maddy was little. Madison loves gymnastics and used to be a cheerleader. They love talking about that when they are together! Kristen calls her Maddykins. FUN FACT: Kristen and James are getting married on Maddy's birthday, so if you see her this day, don't forget to wish her a happy birthday!!
Liam Kocher
Junior Groomsman
Liam is Steph and Greg's son! Kristen also helped babysit Liam when he was little, so Steph and Greg could go to work! Liam loves to talk about NFL football, especially the Bills, any chance he gets with Kristen. He also is super into playing football and wrestling this year and does an awesome job at it!
Nikki Ness
Bridesmaid
Nikki is Kristen's cousin! Kristen has always looked up to Nikki growing up. Even though Nikki is now living across the United States, Kristen has so many fond memories of her cousin growing up. Particularly when Kristen went to visit Nikki out in Washington state, Nikki taught her how to drive a stick shift car!! Nikki has always looked out for Kristen growing up, and Kristen can't wait to have her cousin by her side!
