Wedding Party

Maria Luetkemeyer

Bride

Just a girl from Virginia who loves movies, writing, and the new ruby ring on her finger — and who clearly has good taste in a man!

Paul Denley

Groom

A philosopher and pianist with a Tennessee heart, San Diego sense of adventure, and Colorado skiing skills. Can fix your furniture or beat you in chess, whichever mood he's in.

Rachel Luetkemeyer

Maid of Honor

The bride's younger sister. Prettier than all, funnier than most, and can probably bench press you.

John Selle

Best Man

The groom's friend and former roommate. Sarcasm, wit, theology, Russian literature and Japanese film all rolled into one proud citizen of Spokane.

Emily Tate

Bridesmaid

The bride's oldest sister with three sweet babies of her own. She runs a household and several businesses, so don't mess with her on a Wednesday night — she's either packaging orders or lunchboxes.

Alex Denley

Groomsman

The groom's older brother. Connoisseur of good theology and IPAs. Loves Friedrich Nietzsche, Dostoevsky, Mussorgsky and Alex Jones. Can cook the best Asian short ribs known to mankind — stole the recipe from a restaurant at Disney World but somehow makes them better. Mama's boy.

Kate Martin

Bridesmaid

The bride's second oldest sister, who got married earlier this year! A self-made woman who is an incredible listener and tells it like it is. Great with kids whether it's social work, teaching, or just being a rocking godmama.

Gabe Denley

Groomsman

The groom's younger brother. A man of many talents with a heart of gold. Brilliant conversationalist who always makes everyone feel welcome. The only bespectacled Denley who arguably has the best hair.

Clara Luetkemeyer

Bridesmaid

The bride's youngest sister. A second mama to her niece and nephews. Has been able to change a diaper since she was basically still in diapers herself. A lover of good music and dramatic TV shows. Impeccable interior decorating sense, too.

Matthew Luetkemeyer

Groomsman

The bride's younger brother. Can play any sport and loves to get down on the dance floor. Tough guy but always has a hug for you if you've had a bad day.

Cecilia Denley

Bridesmaid

The groom's oldest sister. Dancer extraordinaire and one of the best teenage chefs you'll meet. Smart, tough, and can probably beat you in a skill she just learned ten minutes ago.

Nick Larkins

Groomsman

The groom's friend and roommate. A man of many hats. Craftsman, guitarist, actor, Harmonium Project volunteer, and owner of two sweet modes of transportation. Makes a mean chicken pot pie.

Sophia Denley

Bridesmaid

The groom's second oldest sister. Fun, caring, and thoughtful cheerleader and babysitter of many small children. Makes you feel like you've been friends with her forever, even though she's (definitely) cooler than you.

Clement Harrold

Groomsman

The groom's friend. British citizen currently NOT on the lookout for a green card. Academic, St. Paul Center assistant, and lover of McDonald's.

Nicolette Smith

Bridesmaid

The bride's friend who is marrying her sister's husband's twin brother. Quick wit, great sense of humor, life of the party, and always down to dance to terrible pop music with you.

David Willey

Groomsman

The groom's friend. British citizen whose last name is impossible to say without an accent. Kind, well-dressed, and will always give you a nice compliment that you probably didn't earn.

Brigid Ambuul

Bridesmaid

The bride's best friend and roommate. The definition of chaotic energy. Artist, writer, FOPer.

Josh Feibelman

Groomsman

The groom's friend and housemate. Never seen without a bowtie or his lady love.

Lanie Bratt

Bridesmaid

The bride's best friend and roommate. Impeccable taste, fashion Nazi and quite possibly the only female to take on the endeavor of the Philosophy-English major. And do it all in various shades of linen.

Jake Tate

Groomsman

The bride's brother-in-law. Responsible for personally developing the bride's music taste and sense of humor. Living proof anything can be cooked in an air fryer.

Aisy Hilgeman

Bridesmaid

The bride's best friend and roommate. The voice of an angel and the wardrobe of a variety of movie characters. Can make a mean dish but probably stole the ingredients from Lanie.

John Martin

Groomsman

The bride's brother-in-law. Gentle heart and killer swimmer's form. The curliest hair south of Latrobe.

Marcella and Philomena Denley

Junior Bridesmaids

The groom's third and fourth sisters

Maggie and Lucy Denley

Junior (Junior!) Bridesmaids

The groom's twin fifth and sixth sisters

Gemma&Stella Denley, Mimi Tate
