Wedding Party
Katlynn Craig
Maid of Honor
Katlynn and I met through mutual friends back when we both worked at Northwestern. Over the years, Katlynn and I have gone on so many adventures together and have had so many laughs. She is always up for new experiences and she is always there to lend a helping hand. Katlynn is an extraordinary person and I am so thankful to call her my best friend!
Dawn Harvey
Bridesmaid
Dawn and I love to joke that we have been friends for 80 years. Dawn was one of my very first friends that I made when I moved to Kokomo. We met at the gym, which has ultimately led to us competing in powerlifting together. A lot of my best memories in my adult life have Dawn in them. I would not be who I am today without the love and support of my best friend!
Joel Harsh
Bridesman
I met Joel through a referral for a massage back in 2020. My body is always in shambles from lifting and he is literally the only reason I can still compete in powerlifting and do what I enjoy. Sessions with Joel always include lots of laughs, useless but interesting facts, and swearing. Joel is an amazing human being!
Taylor Anderson
Bridesmaid
Taylor and I met when I was working as a counselor at Carroll Jr./Sr. High School. She is one of the funniest people I know and she can always get me to laugh. Every year, she lets me go to her house to hunt mushrooms and pick raspberries, which have created some of the very best memories. She is an incredible mom and her boys are the very best!
Hank Sarzynski
Best Man
My brother has always been a significant person in my life. Growing up, he was always there for me. We enjoyed sporting events and spent lots of time together. As we have aged, he is always there to talk to and get advice from. I am grateful to have such a great relationship with him and have him stand by my side on such an amazing day.
Melissa Gustafson
Groomswoman
Melissa and I met through powerlifting as lifters, referees, and volunteers. We have spotted each other in the gym and in life. Over the years we have become great friends and babysitters for each others' fur children. She is a great person who is always there to help. I am excited for her to be a part of our special day.
Tracey Murphy
Groomswoman
Tracey and I have known each other for years through powerlifting. We have had many road trips together to ref powerlifting meets where we've had lots of laughs, Popeyes Chicken, and listening to Cardi B. She is a joy to be around and it's always fun to shake our butts in the gym together. Tracey is the reason this wedding is happening and I couldn't be more thankful for her to be a part of it.
Justin Wishork
Groomsman
Justin and I met when I worked at TD Bank with his wife. The first time hanging out, we clicked immediately. We have spent many nights over the years playing video games, drinking beer, and just having a good time. Justin is an amazing person and it has been great seeing his own family grow over the years. I am thankful he has been a part of my life for so many years and I look forward to the many years yet to come.
