Scott & Rachel
Wedding Party
Rachel Saunders
Bride
Rachel is from Knoxville, TN originally, and relocated to California 3 years ago. After college, she moved to Columbus, OH where she started her career in the corporate fashion industry. She loves her spin classes, both her dogs (Poppy and Pippin,) and hanging out with friends. You can almost always find her with coffee, kombucha, or red wine in hand.
Scott Neslage
Groom
Scott is born and raised in Costa Mesa, CA where he currently still lives with Rachel. He has traveled the world for work, and cannot imagine living anywhere else. His biggest loves (other than Rachel) are their dogs Poppy and Pippin, old classic cars, and enjoying craft beer with his friends.
Dani Barrock
Maid of Honor
Dani and Rachel met at a Kentucky Derby party in 2015. Quickly after, Rachel moved across the hall from Dani and quickly became best friends! Rachel killed all the bugs and always had to help Dani get things down from the top shelf. Dani has come to visit California several times over the last few years, and pick up right where we left off!
Fred Gatti
Best Man
Scott and Fred....thugged out since cub scouts. They met when they were two, and it's been best friends ever since. After Scott was Fred's best man for his wedding, Scott wanted to repay the favor. If you don't know Fred, then you definitely don't know Scott.
Mary McMullan
Bridesmaid
Mary and Rachel met in 2012 at a sports event and immediately became each other's only friends in a new city. Some of their best memories include a girl's weekend in Las Vegas and another in Mexico for Mary's birthday! They will be taking plenty more trips together in the future!
Dustin Serrano
Groomsman
Dustin (also known as twin 2) and Scott have been friends since high school. The bond between these two was forged over the blood, sweat, and tears earned in the wars of waterpolo. Together, they have seen some things. And together, they have conquered all.
Traecy Garcia
Bridesmaid
Traecy and Rachel met at work once Rachel moved to California. They are known as "the twins" around the office because they have so much in common! They went to Hawaii together last year where they discovered one of their new favorite drinks-- a Lilikoi Jalapeno margarita!
Cody Serrano
Groomsman
Cody (also known as twin 1) and Scott...refer to Dustin.
Natalie Serrano
Bridesmaid
Natalie and Rachel met when Rachel was visiting Scott one weekend in California. Natalie is married to Scott's best friend, Cody! Rachel was recently a bridesmaid in Natalie's wedding. Also, Rachel owes Natalie all the credit for introducing her to her favorite workout-- spin!
JC Drake
Groomsman
JC (also known as John, Jay, sizzle, and drizzy) and Scott were roommates back in the dormitory of college. They thought it was so much fun they continued to do it until recent, when they both decided it was time to try and act "grown up." JC's infectious love for life makes him the yin to Scott's yang
Morgan Turner
Bridesmaid
Morgan and Rachel met while Rachel was visiting Scott in California. Morgan's dating Scott's best friend, Dustin, and has an equal love for Harry Potter-- which they bond over! Morgan also is obsessed with spin and encouraged Rachel to get started!
Chris Mimms
Groomsman
Mimms (also known as grandpa) and Scott became great friends from a roommate setup. Mimms needed a room, Scott needed a roommate. How could you deny these signs? Ever since Mimms has offered the responsible, voice of reason to the group. Easily the nicest person Scott has ever met.
Monica Neslage
Bridesmaid
Monica and Rachel obviously met through the groom, and immediately connected as friends-- and soon to be sisters! One of the best memories Rachel has with Monica was climbing a mountain in Hawaii overlooking the ocean, even though Rachel was almost too scared to take a picture on the edge at the top.
Jeff Dye
Groomsman
Jeff, probably known best for the greatest moment in his life.....The day he won his beloved Athlete Of The Year award, So it only seems fitting these two became friends during athletics. Their competitive nature and desire to win created something that has lasted the test of time....or 14 years.
Elizabeth Duffey-Bond
Bridesmaid
Elizabeth and Rachel have known each other since the 6th grade, and have been close friends ever since! Rachel was a bridesmaid in Elizabeth's big day in 2018! There are so many stories to share, but it's best to keep quiet so mom and dad don't need to worry!
Pete Johns
Groomsman
Pete and Scott first met at their summer jobs at Quiksilver. Their love for the outdoors has kept the two together ever since. They have froze in the Sierra mountains, learned who Mike Rotch was, and raged war against a band of raccoons. When these two get their minds together, there is no situation they can't overthink.
