Wedding Party
Dalton Snyder
Best Man
Nathan first met Dalton (and his twin brother, Dustin) in 3rd grade and they've been friends ever since. Dalton lives with his wife Olivia in Marietta, GA. Nathan is a self-appointed godfather to both Dalton and his wonderful wife Olivia's two dogs, a matter which he does not take lightly. (He's also open to being godfather to each of their chickens too).
Vivi Monasch
Maid of Honor
Vivi is Alexis's cousin and dearest friend. Although she lives in San Francisco, she's from London (hence the accent that Alexis tried to mimic when they were younger). Viv is Alexis's adventure buddy, greatest supporter, co-puppeteer, and wise counselor. Alexis is thrilled to have Viv by her side on her wedding day, and forever!
Dustin Snyder
Best Man
Like his twin brother, Dalton, Nathan has known Dustin since 3rd grade and was roommates with Dustin as a freshman at Georgia Tech. Dustin lives with his partner Katlyn in Gainesville, GA. Unlike Dalton, Dustin "T.T. Showbiz" (the extra T is for extra talent) has yet to make Nathan the godfather of his two cats Gus and Peaches.
Katie Zottnick
Bridesmaid
Katie is Nathan's sister, and lives in Austin, TX. She's the most bubbly person Alexis has ever met and is a true joy to be around. Katie is whimsical, intelligent, and goofy. She also embraces Austin's "weirdness" -- she wears funky n' fun fits and attends chicken (shit) bingo on the weekends.
Nate Franks
Groomsman
Nate is Alexis's brother and lives with his wife, Bri, in Oceanside, California. Nate and Alexis have been buddies their whole lives -- they've produced musical skits, "rough-played" until someone started crying, and laughed over the same Youtube comedians. To reduce confusion, Nate has agreed to be referred to as "Little Nate" for the duration of Nathan and Alexis's wedding. (Note: Child in photo is not Nate's)
Brianna Franks
Bridesmaid
Bri is Alexis's sister in law, but Alexis refers to her as "Sis." Bri lives in Oceanside, CA, where she can be found soaking up the sunshine, strolling along the beach, and cuddling with her two beloved cats. Don't let Bri's size or sweetness fool you! She is fiery, passionate, and kick-ass. Alexis is so grateful that her brother married such a wonderful lady, who has become one of her closest friends!
Sean Zottnick
Groomsman
Sean is Nathan's brother and lives with his wife, Junchu, somewhere in Ohio. As an avid hardcore metal enthusiast, Sean has been flagged as a guest whose music recommendations will undergo extra scrutiny before approval for use in this wedding. This has been done for guest safety, as Alexis and Nathan were doubtful that their wedding guests would be interested in forming a mosh pit on the dance floor. However, if there is someone who appears to be headbanging during the dancing portion of the wedding, do not interrupt them. It's Sean and he's in his happy place.
Madison Weber
Bridesmaid
Madison is Alexis's childhood bestie and longest & dearest friend -- she lives in Vista, CA with her husband, Grant. The two met at church when they were in elementary school, and quickly bonded over their love for theater. They have countless memories of trips to the mall, jumping on the trampoline, and filming music videos. At age fifteen, they fell in love with the members of One Direction (the best boyband ever) and devoted many hours to running an instagram fan page. Madison and Alexis are besties for life.
Keith Zottnick
Groomsman
Keith is Nathan's brother, former roommate, and former bunk-mate. Keith currently lives in Gainesville, GA where both his beard and his list of hobbies seem to change with every passing season. Though quiet by nature (but always prepared to throw a quip into any conversation) being a groomsman has required Keith to exceed his standard text limit of 2 annual texts to Nathan and for that alone, Nathan is grateful.
Alex Norman
Bridesmaid
Alex lives in Austin, TX with her husband, Nick, and three cats. Alex and Alexis first met in a high school Spanish class when Alexis spotted her "One Direction" notebook. (Are you sensing a theme?) The two soon discovered that they lived across the street from each other, so they spent many afternoons in Alex's purple bedroom, listening to music and chatting about cute (celebrity) boys. They spent hours running an instagram fan page and participating in ~photoshoots~. Alexis couldn't have survived high school (especially sophomore year) without her!
Ben Franks
Groomsman
Ben is Alexis's brother and lives in Fallbrook, California. He's surprisingly wise, for a 22-year old, and is also incredibly whitty. Alexis adores Ben, and considers him a close friend. Ben has trekked Alaska, traversed the African plains, and hiked Mount Whitney multiple times but he recently confided to both Nathan and Alexis that Leesburg is the coolest place he's ever been (he said it isn't even close).
Kaitlyn Moore
Bridesmaid
Kaitlyn lives in Concord, CA with her husband, Keaton. She and Alexis met in their high school's theater program and bonded over their shared love for Megan Trainor and hot cheetos. Kaitlyn made Alexis a "college readiness box" before Alexis left for Cal Poly, and Alexis still stores all her arts and crafts in said box. Over the years, Alexis and Kaitlyn have spent time making ridiculous videos, sipping on drinks, dancing at bars, binging Love Island, and attending concerts together. Kaitlyn makes life FUN, and is an incredibly intentional friend.
Michael Cole
Groomsman
Michael is Nathan's cousin and lives in Baltimore, MD. Michael's been preparing to be hype man for this wedding by taking multiple educational trips to Ibiza over the last several years. It's no small task but Alexis and Nathan have the upmost faith in his abilities.
Brianna Wilson
Bridesmaid
Bri lives in Nashville, TN, with her husband, Andrew. Bri and Alexis met the summer before high school began. Alexis distinctly remembers that Bri was a trend setter -- she wore a scarf with a tanktop and Alexis was thrilled to follow suit. Bri and Alexis kept each other afloat through many AP classes (they definitely both over-studied and needed to relax). Over the years, Alexis and Bri have spent hours rambling on the phone and have visited each other in SLO, Malibu, Nashville, Ann Arbor, and DC! Bri is the kindest, most loving friend, and Alexis is lucky to have her.
Joseph Horth
Groomsman
Joe and Nathan met at Georgia Tech, where they both played on the club soccer team together. Joe and his wife, Sydney, live in Colorado where they frequent the mountains and the ski slopes together. But don't be fooled by his mountain man act - Joe is well-known as a talented dancer in all his circles. Pull him onto the dance floor every chance you get!
Katie Rodriguez
Bridesmaid
Katie lives in Phoenix with her husband, Justin, and their daughter, Emmy. Katie and Alexis met in their freshman bible study group at Cal Poly. They became fast friends, bonding over their shared love for Les Miserables and sweet treats. At the start of junior year, Alexis and Katie became roommates (like, literally the same tiny room), and spent many hours binging Love Island and chatting into the wee hours of the night. Katie is a fountain of wisdom and a steadfast encourager, and has continued to love Alexis so well over the years - even from Phoenix!
Paul Kondratyev
Groomsman
Paul and Nathan met at Georgia Tech, where they both played on the club soccer team together. Paul lives in Hoboken, NJ. In college, Paul's vehicle of choice was a communal Mini Cooper. When you meet him - that will make sense.
Bailey Winiger
Bridesmaid
Bailey lives with her husband, Evan, and their daughter, Audrey, in Couer d’Alane. Bailey and Alexis met at the start of freshman year, and became besties within a month. They kept each other’s spirits high during their 6:30am trudges to their 7am sociology classes, and bonded over their shared (ridiculous) sense of humor. Bailey has been a steadfast friend for many years, always offering a listening ear and thoughtful advice. Alexis couldn’t have gotten through college without her!
Conrado Brenna
Groomsman
Conrado and Nathan first met at Georgia Tech, where they roomed together for many years. Conrado lives in Brooklyn, NY. As the local tennis legend of Greenpoint, Brooklyn, Conrado is never more than 500 feet from any tennis court. Alexis and Nathan's wedding will be one of the rare instances in which Conrado will not be seen with a tennis racquet in hand.
Victoria Clark
Bridesmaid
Victoria lives in DC, just a couple of miles away from Alexis. Alexis and Victoria’s friendship blossomed when Alexis accosted her in the hallway during a break in their shared law school class and asked her to be her class partner (the two had never met before). Victoria hesitantly agreed, and soon found Alexis to be very enjoyable company! Alexis and Victoria supported each other through heartbreaks, and when Alexis met Nate, Victoria was instantly a fan. The three have become a bit of a trio, with Victoria playing an instrumental role in the proposal. Alexis is so thrilled to live in the same city as her girl!!!
Henry King
Groomsman
Henry and Nathan first met at Georgia Tech, where they roomed together for multiple years. Henry lives in Stamford, CT. It's well-known that Henry is responsible for originally trailblazing the WFH clothing style popularized during COVID - a crisply ironed button down paired with loose, gray sweatpants - while rooming in midtown Atlanta with Conrado and Nathan in 2017.
Kate Rogers
Bridesmaid
Kate lives in New York and is a high power attorney with a secret love for One Direction and obscure memes. Alexis and Kate were roomies in law school, where they bonded over making their sweet roommate, Gabrielle, gawk at their outlandish jokes. Distance (since graduating) has had 0 impact on their friendship, and they continue to see and check in with each other regularly. Kate is a cheerleader and a breath of fresh air, and Alexis is always laughing with her.
