Wedding Party
Elizabeth Patterson
Maid of Honor
Elizabeth (Lizzy) Patterson arrived three days before Elise's 4th birthday and has been her closest confidante ever since. She’s witty, loyal, and the kind of human who makes every season of life lighter and better. Lizzy is someone who Elise tries to emulate everyday. As Elise’s favorite person in the entire world, there was no question to her being Elise's Maid of Honor. Lizzy brings love, loyalty, quick wit, and a bond shaped by a lifetime spent growing up side by side.
Dave Kujawa
Best Man
Dave Kujawa has been one of Mitch’s closest friends since their unforgettable Key West trip sophomore year of college — a trip that turned a casual friendship into a lifelong brotherhood. From that moment on, Dave and Mitch have been inseparable, standing by each other through the best celebrations and the hardest challenges. Dave is the kind of friend who shows up, no matter what, and that loyalty is exactly why Mitch chose him to stand beside him as Best Man.
Emily Bell
Matron of Honor
Elise met Emily six years ago on a work trip, where they split a bottle of wine and somehow covered their entire life stories in one night. Since then, Emily has become her chosen person — passionate, loyal, kind, loving, and brilliant in every way that matters. She’s the friend who shows up, lifts up, and makes every chapter better just by being in it. Elise is lucky to have her in her life, and share this special chapter of new beginnings with Em being her Matron of Honor.
AJ Stacey
Best Man
AJ Stacey has been one of Mitch’s closest friends for more than a decade, a friendship that began back in their junior year of high school in Bellevue, Nebraska. They grew up in the same friend group, traveled together, and quickly formed the kind of bond that feels more like family than friendship. Mitch stood beside AJ as his Best Man, and now AJ is returning the honor. Choosing AJ was easy — he’s been a brother to Mitch for as long as either of them can remember.
