Wedding Party

Lauren Osborn

Maid of Honor

Michele and I met in 2016, when she started dating her older brother, Matt. We became friends right away, and then officially became sisters in 2018! I feel so lucky to be standing by her side as she marries Micah and couldn't be happier to have them both as family!

Brian Reeves

Best Man

I’ve known Brian the fewest years of all my groomsmen but in all honesty, he’s made one of the biggest impacts on my life. We met on the Big Island working at AT&T and he is the definition of ALOHA. There are so many adjectives to describe this guy but the first few that come to mind are friendly, disciplined, and compassionate. On my last days in Hawaii, we sat out at “the secret spot” and dreamed about what our life would be like in 5 years. We put our goals out there, planned it out, and promised to execute that plan while holding each other accountable. Well brother, it has been many years later and here we are… We did it :) I’m honored to have you by my side in the most important time of my life.

Camille Brown

Maid of Honor

Michele and I met through friends of my husband in 2012, and have been close friends ever since. We've created many memories including running a half marathon together, runs around Greenlake & Lake Union followed by beers at local breweries, weekend trips to Chelan, and being a part of each other’s wedding party. We can always count on each other to be there through good times and bad.

Chris Hedlund

Best Man

Chris is one of the first friends I gained when I moved to Vancouver, Washington. We met in 7th grade gym class and was my main partner in crime (quite literally) in high school. If a good time was to be had, Chris knew where it was going to be. Chris tells it how it is, he’s the person I call when I need the unfiltered truth and has gotten me through some pretty challenging times in life. I was a little lost going into college and wasn't sure what to do, he made sure I picked something and finished it out. There have been a lot of ups and downs in ours lives but throughout it all, we’ve remained constant.

Shannon Katara

Bridesmaid

Michele and I met ~6 years ago while working together. We became fast friends and grew to become great friends over the years. Whether we are traveling, checking out the hottest new restaurant, shopping, boating, watching football or recapping the latest Bachelor episode our time together is always full of fun & laughter. These experiences have giving us endless memories and a close friendship to create many more memories for years to come.

Blake Misenar

Groomsman

Blake and I knew each other in high school but didn’t get close until we went to Washington State. We quickly became close friends, and shortly after that, roommates living under a Catholic parish office taking care of a church in exchange for rent. We led Sunday school classes, towed cars on Sundays, kept the church grounds clean, worked out and ate more food than any human ever should have towards the end of college. Blake is a rare, kind hearted individual who takes care of his friends. Blake has been a friend I admire. He’s an extremely competitive, driven, smart and level headed individual who always pushes to be better everyday. Thank you for making sure I got to know more people here in Seattle and always keeping me close by. It truly means more than you know.

Stacie Clerget

Bridesmaid

Always plenty of laughs when I'm with Michele! She is also supportive, fun, giving, creative, and I'm grateful to call her my friend! Whether it be on the golf course, having fun on the water, catching a game, or me trying to learn her awesome dance moves, it's always a great time when we're together! I'm so happy she found an amazing partner in Micah, and excited for what their future will bring!

Jeremy Rielly

Groomsman

There is much to say about this guy and his family. Jeremy was my FIRST friend when I moved to Vancouver. I was a country kid who moved to the city with no idea how to fit in and Jeremy was the friend I needed most at the time. We ripped dirtbikes, skateboards, and played basketball from sun up to sun down all through middle school. After high school I asked him to join me and move to Hawaii, and without hesitation, he did just that. He treated me like a brother, and his family treated me like another son. Shout out to Don, Audrie, Bree, and Justin for being a second family to me. I’ll always think of you as a brother to me and I’ve appreciated all the good times.

Mariela DeSantiago

Bridesmaid

Michele and I met while attending college at Colorado State University. We had a blast while in college and were able to maintain our friendship even while living in different states. One of my favorite memories with Michele is our amazing trip to Costa Rica 🇨🇷 PURA VIDA!

Micah Lape

Groomsman

Growing up, I had never met another guy who shared the same name with me. This made things very complicated when I met Micah and our names quickly got changed to either Lape or B-S in high school. Micah is the greatest athlete I've ever met and I, as well as any other kid at Skyview, would push hard as possible to try to beat this guy at something… We never did… Athletic ability aside, Micah is also one of the best friends I've ever had. He’s a strong willed person who never settled and I spent most of my teenage years with him pushing me to my limit. Lape and I have been through many battles together and he’s been a key person who’s helped shape me into the man I am today.

Tiffany Novak

Bridesmaid

Michele and I were next door neighbors in college and became instant best friends. We made the big move to Washington together in 2010, landing in Bellingham, WA. Michele continued her life in WA, while I decided to move back to CO. 14 years of friendship and I can’t wait to stand by this lady’s side when she says I do!

Riley George

Groomsman

I met Riley through a mutual friend in college. For some reason, he always kept telling me I had to meet this guy who was essentially the same person. The moment they met, they hit it off and knew they'd be good friends for life. Riley is the most kind hearted individual, and embodies the golden rule of being patient and compassionate. Micah can first handedly attest to his patience as he introduced me to his new life long passion, bow hunting. As if bow hunting isn’t hard enough, imagine bringing someone who knows nothing along with you who is just stomping in the woods and scaring off any animal within a mile radius, THAT is patience. They've had some of the best times together during summers in Roseburg, Superbowl Sundays, and a lifetime of hunting still to come.

Brenda Baxter

Bridesmaid

Michele (Tmo) and I met on a boat in Seattle! She was magnetic, full of boundless energy and serving up laughs all day. We both lived in Queen Anne for many years as single ladies which is now put in a time capsule to cherish forever. Work lunches, happy hours, and theater is where we'd talk about our lives, careers and ambitions. Through many highs & lows, we celebrated each other's successes, with champagne! She's one of the most charismatic, independent, motivated, beautiful women that I've been blessed to have in my circle. I try to absorb a little bit more of these traits every time we are together! She's a boss babe! I'm so excited to witness her find, and marry, the ONE. I can't wait to see her glowing and smiling from ear to ear on this massive celebration!

David Ferguson

Groomsman

David came into my life when he began to dating my sister, Brynna. I never got along with my sister's boyfriends and always made sure they knew I wasn’t far away. David was different. From the moment I met him, I could sense he was an exceptional human. David is the definition of what a man should be. He puts family first and will do anything necessary to make sure they have what they need. He’s a provider and extremely level headed person who always puts himself in others shoes before passing judgment. You are an exceptional husband to Brynna, and exceptional father to Abbie and Boone. You are the pinnacle of a brother in law.

Julia Meier

Bridesmaid

For the last 14 years Michele and I have shared countless laughs, recipes, puzzles, adventures and bottles of wine. Whether we are jet setting, snowed in, or deciding to move to New York for a summer we always make each moment one to remember and we always have a joke or two that comes with it. Despite being states, and sometimes oceans, away we have always stayed connected. I am so excited to stand with you as you marry your best friend! Cheers to your next chapter!

Eugene Johnson

Groomsman

Eugene has been a lifelong friend to Micah. He's a hard working family man with a very big heart. We've made LOTS of mischievous memories in highschool, from the classic home brews to racing cars on lower river road. If I could ever label a friend as my "partner in crime", it's Eugene. We've had lots of memories my friend! I'm honored to make the BIGGEST memory of my life with you by my side on this big day!
