Wedding Party
Olivia Bennett
Matron of Honor
Olivia is Liz's day-one best friend, and she wouldn't have anyone else by her side! Olivia and Liz have known each other since our brothers were in boy scouts together, and were in the same Kindergarten class (see photo) and fifth grade class. They've spent summers living at the local pool swimming from sunrise to sunset, and supported each other as they learned how to navigate adulthood after college in Columbus. Olivia and her husband, Jeff, have two daughters Blaire (6) and Paige (2).
Nick Bachler
Best Man
Nick is Matt's older, and sometimes wiser, brother. Growing up together they played street hockey for hours, and made efforts to maintain a strong relationship in adulthood with annual summer hiking trips with their sister, Laurie. Nick and his wife, Jessie, have three kids who will each be Flower Guys and Gals - Jack (8), Elliot (6), and Leigh (5).
Jack, Elliot, & Leigh Bachler
Flower Child
Jack (8), Elliot (6), and Leigh (5) will be our Flower Guys and Gals! We are so excited for them to spread their infectious energy and joy to ready the aisle for our ceremony to start!
David Bright
Officiant
David is Liz's older (and wiser!) brother. He is the most upstanding and thoughtful person we know, and we are honored that he is willing to lead us into our future together. David and his wife, Heather, have been together for 23 years and married for 19, sharing two daughters Lainey (14) and Lydia (13).
Lydia & Cute Bear Bright
Flower Gal and Ring Bear-er
Lydia is Liz's mini-me and youngest niece, and Cute Bear is Lydia's most loyal stuffy. Lydia and Cute Bear help each other do brave things, so together they will be Flower Gal and Ring Bearer!
Lainey Bright
Wedding Coordinator
Lainey is Liz's eldest niece, and a smart, sassy gal who loves to orchestrate events and experiences. She is far beyond her years - she is responsible and organized, appreciating a job well done, especially if it has to do with glam! Even as a young girl she has had a quiet empathy for other's feelings and a desire for equity, and easily sees other's perspectives. We're glad to release control to her capable hands on the day of our wedding!
