Megan & Ryan
Wedding Party
Whitney Blakstad
Maid of Honor
Whitney has been a part of our family for almost a decade. Brad introduced them while Meg was first visiting Durango and Whitney convinced Meg that Durango was the best place on earth! Meg, Whitney and Brad have been roommates since Meg moved to Durango more than 4 years ago now. They currently live on their jointly owned property in downtown Durango and spend most nights having family dinners and cocktails in the yard together. Meg is so appreciative to have a sister in law who has also become her best friend.
Marcelo Cleveland
Best Man
Marcelo is Ryan's brother and could not be a better choice for a best man. Although he still lives in California, when they meet up it's like not a day has passed. Easy going and always down to go with the flow, Marcelo is sure to make everyone smile.
JJ Benson
Groomsman
From awesome best friend handshakes to epic dance moves, JJ is entertaining to say the least! He and Ryan were roommates in college and have been best of friends since. JJ will light up a room and keep everyone dancing all night long!
Liz Cyr
Bridesmaid
Liz and Meg have been friends since elementary school. Together with Shelby they have shared lots of fun times- including crossing the Canadian border several times between the ages of 18 and 21! Meg and Liz stay in touch and some of their fondest memories include Spring Breaking in Florida together in college and Liz's trip to Durango the summer of 2019.
Brad Riddle
Groomsman
Fishing, Golf, Cooking, Whiskey. Ryan hoped he would get along with his future brother in law but he never would have thought he would be gaining such a close friend.
Jimmy Upshaw
Groomsman
Jimmy and Ryan have possibly spent more time standing in a river than anywhere else throughout their friendship. Their love of fishing is followed closely by the love of a making a nice cocktail (while telling fish stories of course).
