Erienne Roberts

Officiant

You're never sure the type of relationship you'll have with your supervisor at work, but Ally hit the jackpot when Erienne joined the staff at UChicago as her supervisor. Not only did Erienne become someone that Ally looked up to professionally, but they became quick friends - with Ally & Nathan often frequenting Erienne's office after long days and events. There wasn't a doubt in their mind to ask Erienne to officiate their wedding as soon as Nathan popped the question.

Meaghan Johnson

Matron of Honor

Cousins born six months apart, bound to be best friends, who promised each other that they would be each other's Maid of Honor at the age of 5. Ally stood beside Meaghan in April 2025 as her Maid of Honor, and then Meaghan will stand beside Ally in September 2025 as her Matron of Honor. Time flies when you make a promise to keep!

Delaney Heller

Bridesmaid

Without a sister like Delaney - the only girl in their triplet trio - we're not sure where Nathan would be. From keeping him out of trouble growing up to cooking him food in college to giving him girl advice, Delaney has had Nathan's back through every second of life - and Nathan could not be more grateful to have her standing by his side on his wedding day.

Mia Copes

Bridesmaid

During a sorority event, a friend walked up to Ally and told her that "she should talk to this girl Mia, because you two have a lot in common." In one of their first few conversations, they made the absolutely rash decision to study abroad in Italy together and then live together, too - and now, Mia convinces Ally to do things like run marathons together. It's a friendship for the ages.

Shelby Bergholtz

Bridesmaid

Shelby and Ally attended the same High School, with Shelby actually being a good friend of Ally's brother, Christopher. Having never really spoke in High School, but recognizing each other as familiar faces at Saginaw Valley State University, the two quickly became friends during a sorority event while playing Scattergories - and remain inseparable 7 years later.

Sarah Ehlman

Bridesmaid

13 years of friendship (and counting) with plenty of life chapters spent together - from middle school to high school, soccer teammates to college roommates, partying together to getting married together (Sarah's wedding is July 2025!) - Ally couldn't imagine a wedding day without Sarah by her side to celebrate yet another huge chapter.

Gabby Kujawa

Bridesmaid

Ally's mom and Gabby's dad were good friends since First Grade. When Ally's family moved to Saginaw in Middle School, she was told by each of them that she and Gabby just HAD to meet - even though they sounded like complete opposites. Their parents were onto something though, because fast-forward 13 years and the friendship is bound to last a lifetime.

Jacy Sterritt

Bridesmaid

Jacy began working at UChicago a couple months after Ally, and started stopping by her office every once in awhile. Every once in awhile turned into every day and every day turned into multiple times a day and soon enough the visits were the best part of the day - and even though they work and live hundreds of miles apart now, nothing's changed a bit.

Jennifer Buckman

Bridesmaid

Ally was a few months into her job at UChicago when a Coach told her that he just hired an assistant around her age, and he thought that they would like each other and get along well. Understatement of the year, as he was obviously quite right since Jen became a light in Ally's life and is standing beside her on her big day now. Thanks, Coach!

Zack Heller

Best Man

As brothers, Zack and Nathan did everything together growing up - from sports to school to jobs, and everything in between. Nothing can replace or replicate the brotherly bond that the two have created, with Zack now standing as Nathan's Best Man on the big day.

Christopher Gregory

Groomsman

The younger brother of the Bride - only separated by 18 months - who is Ally's built-in best friend. There aren't any words to describe the inside jokes, unique humor and shared bond between them - and how lucky Ally feels to have her brother as her bestie, standing by her side on her wedding day.

Josh Brady

Groomsman

Childhood friends beginning at the age of 8, when Josh became the "new kid on the block." The friendship has lasted through the test of time and all chapters of life so far, with Josh being Nathan's longest friend standing next to him on his big day.

Sean Devlin

Groomsman

Not too long after Josh came around, Josh introduced Sean to Nathan and, clearly, a friendship sparked - because here we are, 16 years later. Sean even decided to still remain friends with Nathan and Zack after they knocked his tooth out playing basketball, so Nathan feels lucky the friendship has lasted through tested times.
