Wedding Party

Jessica McGill

Bride

I am so excited to celebrate this joyous occasion with you all as Patrick and I tie the knot!

Patrick Marchal

Groom

Can’t wait to welcome all our guests from near and far!

Haley Arena

Maid of Honor

Haley and Jess have been (almost) lifelong friends, having known each other since kindergarten. Haley has been hard at work the past several years becoming a veterinarian to care for sick and injured animals with a focus on exotics and pocket pets. She's been in Florida the past year working at UF honing her skills.

Andrew Marchal

Best Man

Andrew is Patrick’s middle brother. Some would say that Patrick’s training as childhood sparring partner kick-started Andrew’s success in wrestling and jiu jitsu later in life, although this claim has been disputed (not by Patrick). He works as a firefighter in Louisville but grudgingly roots for the occasional Cincinnati sports team.

Paige Owen

Maid of Honor

Paige has been close friends with Jessica since meeting through their college boyfriends (now fiances). You can find them catching up on podcasts, books, or movies over coffee and cocktails, or competing to see who is the more extravagant party host. Paige lives in Cincinnati and works as a financial analyst, although scouring the racks for her latest thrift find sometimes feels like a full-time job.

Henry Marchal

Best Man

Henry is Patrick’s youngest brother. Patrick has only recently forgiven him for being a notorious candy thief throughout his childhood, and wary wedding guests are encouraged to keep a close eye on their goodies. Henry works as an aviation mechanic in Florence, and has been instrumental in introducing Andrew to the delights of the greater Cincinnati area.

Jason McGill

Bridesman

Jason, tech wiz, graduating May 2026 with a degree in Computer Science! Is Jessica's little brother, he's seen her through every life phase and is a true champ standing up as a Bridesman for his sister.

Toni Hale

Groomsman

Toni and Patrick bonded in the finance department of a Cincinnati eye‑health company—proof that spreadsheets can bring people together. Their friendship grew through countless movie debates and whatever their latest hyper‑fixation happened to be.

Madeline Gongos

Bridesmaid

Maddy (DD) and Jess grew up cousins and had the pleasure of growing even closer while at rival Universities in Cincinnati. DD is a HR Generalist working remotely with a data driven marketing firm and can be found at most home Guardians games during the season!

Martin Schram

Groomsman

Martin and Patrick were dorm neighbors their first year at UC and decided to upgrade to roommates the next year after bonding over music and Adult Swim programming. After many late college nights (studying and otherwise), he resides in Charlotte and works as a construction project engineer.

Samantha Lyle

Bridesmaid

Sam is your go‑to girl for a good hype‑up, currently in Marketing and Sales for a machinery manufacturing company in NKY. As cousins who’ve always been as close as sisters, it feels perfectly fitting to share this moment together.

Jonathan Brown

Groomsman

Jonathan is Patrick’s cousin and occasional hairstyle inspiration. He introduced Patrick to the joys of live music, festivals, and Louisville nightlife, and works his magic as a CT technologist in Louisville.
