Natalie & Ryan
Wedding Party
Kim Robinson
Maid of Honor
Kim and Natalie met their senior year of high school at St. John XXIII in Katy, TX. They bonded over coffee and solving the world's problems. After three years of living together, lots of giggles and coffee dates later, there could not be a better friend to co-host in their future podcast. Kim is a Mechanical Engineering major at Texas A&M, from Cypress, TX. You can catch her singing in the choir at the ceremony.
Spencer Bindel
Best Man
Spencer is the middle of the three Bindel boys. He is both smarter and better at golf than Ryan, and he's not shy about those facts. Spencer is also a motivator, feel free to ask him anytime about his bid for the 2036 Presidential election. Ryan has known Spencer since day one and their brotherly bond means so much to Ryan, it is fitting he holds the title of best man. Spencer is currently a sophomore Theology and Political Science major at the University of Notre Dame.
Kyleigh Garcia
Bridesmaid
Kyleigh is Natalie's step sister and is a junior in high school in Sugarland, TX. Kyleigh is incredibly sweet and laid back but also bold and confident in what she says and does.

Natalie has loved watching Kyleigh grow into such a beautiful young woman.

Abby McFadden
Bridesmaid
Natalie and Abby got to know each other when they moved in together their Freshman year in college. Eventually they bonded over their love for Gumby's pizza rolls and long talks in the living room until way too late. Abby is practically a saint for putting up with Kim and Natalie's dancing, rapping, lipsyncing (or screaming) for three years. Abby is a selfless servant, always willing to help out anyone in need. Abby is a senior Biology major at Texas A&M and plans on going to PA school when she graduates.

Luke is current attending the Duke's Fuqua School of Business Master's of Management Studies in Durham, NC.

Sam is now in her volunteer year with the Apostles of the Interior Life (a religious order).
Ty Crawford
Groomsman
Ty and Ryan were roommates during their junior year. Ty couldn't believe that Ryan actually took Natalie on our first date so Ryan had Natalie autograph a statement that she had actually been there. Ty is the most loyal and thoughtful friend and surprisingly good at pranks. Fun fact: he may or may not have a large USMC tattoo across his chest. Ty is currently a Second Lieutenant in the United States Marine Corps, attending The Basic School in Quantico, VA.

Annie is currently an Adore missionary where she works as a youth minister at St. John Fisher Catholic Parish in Richmond, TX.
Nathan Hall
Groomsman
Nathan was Ryan's roommate during their senior year. Ryan and Nathan met during their first days at Texas A&M, both in Company G-2. Nathan and Ryan make a good pair because one of them talks a lot and the other one doesn't, I'll let you decide who fits the description. Nathan is a devoted friend and always willing to serve those around him the best he can. Nathan is currently a Second Lieutenant in the United States Marine Corps, attending The Basic School in Quantico, VA.
