Mimi & Jeff
Wedding Party
Mary Burford
Maid of Honor
We met in college and have been adventure partners ever since we jammed out to John Mayer in our sorority house dorm room. Mary is a fellow Harry Potter enthusiast, Spice Girls fan, and travel partner. I can't imagine my life (or wedding) without a beautiful friend like Mary in it.
Taylor Dellosso
Bridesmaid
Taylor made me an aunt and a Godmother in September 2001, when I was eleven years old. I will never forget how much I loved holding her as a baby. I am so proud of the sweet, lovely, beautiful and talented person she has become. We don't get to see each other as often as I would like, but each time we do, I am in awe by what an amazing person she is!
Megan Johnson
Bridesmaid
Life really knew what it was doing when it made Megan my next door neighbor. Of all the places I could have chosen to live in Louisville for 4 years during school, I am so lucky it was right next to her! From the minute we met, I knew we would have a lifelong friendship. I miss not living next door to each other anymore for an impromptu Target run or Candle shopping, but I cherish our friendship, all the memories we made, and all memories that are to come. I love that each time we see each other we pick it up like no time has passed.
Jackie Marschall
Bridesmaid
Jeff's sister, Jackie and he are complete opposites. However, both are each others biggest fans. Whether it was cheering Jackie on during her sporting events growing up or Jackie encouraging Jeff on his career goals, the support was unconditional. When Jackie is involved, the event is sure to be a good time!
Abigail Miller
Bridesmaid
Abi makes everything more fun! I love our Louisville weekends, our sangria brunches, and back-to-back trips to Comfy Cow on the hunt for Brown Butter Peanut Brittle ice cream. I am so happy to have Abi as a friend and a bridesmaid.
Amanda Robinson
Bridesmaid
A friend from Louisville, Amanda first turned me on to watching 'The Bachelor'. Our memories have turned into an amazing journey. Fun fact: Amanda's wedding in 2015 was so much fun that Jeff crashed it! We copied her wedding band in hopes of re-creating the fun party of #IDoAmandrew. Amanda, will you accept this rose?
LB Wathen
Bridesmaid
My favorite memory of LB is a George Strait concert together, singing our hearts out. I love visiting her at the beach where she now lives. We had many great memories and I can't wait to make more.
Becka Wilder
Bridesmaid
Becka decorated my locker with Kit Kats one year for my birthday, and after that there was no going back! Mimosas after exams and a mutual love of Spicy Margaritas made for an an amazing friendship. Becka and her husband David are dear friends, and we look forward to making a lifetime of memories with their beautiful family.
Sunny Yerrapragada
Bridesmaid
Sunny and I became friends at the very beginning of Dental School and I can't imagine those years without her! We traveled together and ate all of the croquetas Spain had to offer. We did our externship together while living in North Carolina for a summer, which involved less tapas and more rattlesnakes and bears. She has a way of making life fun, and I'm so lucky to call her a friend!
David Wilder
Best Man
David and Jeff were roommates through dental school. When we didn't have to study for dental school, you could find us cracking open a beer, grilling, trying to golf, or hanging with the rest of our group of friends! Becka, who is a Bridesmaid, is David's wife. During our time in dental school, she had to deal with David and my shenanigans more than once. Truth be told, David was always the voice of reason and an excellent friend!
Jacob Bishop
Groomsman
Jacob and Jeff were friends from the beginning of dental school. Sharing a common obsession with the University of Louisville football and basketball teams, there was never a dull moment. Whether it was getting too rowdy tail gaiting for a football game, packing the car and driving all night to New Orleans to watch Louisville in the Sugar bowl, or the epic moments had while watching basketball games, Jacob was there instigating and making sure a good time was had by all.
Tony Distler
Groomsman
Tony went to dental school with Jeff. When Jeff and Jacob were getting too ridiculous at Louisville sporting events, level headed Tony always reeled us back in... except for a few occasions such as the 2013 National Championship game. But thats neither here nor there. Tony is always available for beer to bounce life's big decisions off of.
Mitch Kunzeman
Groomsman
If one thing is for sure, Mitch is going to be showing Jeff up on the golf course for years (if not decades) to come. With continuing beat downs on the links, however, comes a future brother-in-law unlike any other. Always good for a great family game night, uncanny sports wit, and when he has seen enough of my golf game... a timely piece of advice so he doesn't have to witness my terrible slice on every hole.
Alex Musser
Groomsman
Alex and Jeff met through a mutual friend when Jeff was a first-year dental student and Alex was in his last year. Both shared a common interest in pursuing a career in oral surgery... and more importantly, bourbon. Throughout dental school, Alex offered Jeff advice as he made his way through school. Jeff always considered Alex as an older brother and as the years grew, confided in him much more important things than oral surgery. I'm sure both can recall the first moment Jeff brought up pursuing Mimi, who was living in St. Louis at the time.
Ryan Oberhausen
Groomsman
Ryan joined David and me as a roommate after our first year of dental school. Lucy, Ryan's spunky Doberman tagged along as well. Ryan is possibly the most chill person I've ever met. Every Thursday in dental school we walked over to our neighborhood bar for pint night, trivia, and capped the night off with a game of pool. During our weekly trivia nights, he always brought his A-game when it came to sports knowledge and on the billiards table. Since dental school, I've been able to go on a few fishing trips with Ryan where he has been able to show me the ropes with deep-sea fishing.
Venkat Ramakrishnan
Groomsman
Venkat and Jeff have known each other since undergrad at the University of Louisville. Strangely, nearly every one of our interests was identical. Venkat was a year ahead of Jeff in undergrad, and after his senior year he went to Zurich, Switzerland to complete cutting edge research. Jeff would eventually be handed this same position a year later. When Jeff bought his home after dental school, Venkat, his long-time friend and confidant was his roommate during the early years of Jeff's oral surgery residency. Mimi has big roommate shoes to fill!
