Rick & Chanell
Wedding Party
Kahlil DuPerry
Groomsman
Starting off as Rick's teammate on the Brother Rice High School dive team Rick and Kahlil went to the University of Michigan together and were even roommates there for 3 years. Now that they live on opposite ends of the country they don't go for beers as often (far too much of that in college) but they stay in touch through long phone calls and are closer friends than ever.
Troy Cooke
Groomsman
Through a childhood of rough-housing, teasing, and instigating few people have had such an impact in shaping Rick into the man he is today as his younger brother Troy. Although they wouldn't be caught dead hanging out with each other as kids (unless Rick was beating Troy in video games) their relationship has grown to be one of respect and love that only bothers can share.
Brett Sjostrom
Groomsman
Rick and Brett met on the volleyball court as interns for Boeing in the summer of 2015. They quickly found that they were the only ones amongst their intern peers who had ever seen a volleyball before and spent the summer touring the sand courts of Seattle making friends. Upon their coincidental return to Seattle as full time full time employees, Brett with Boeing and Rick with Microsoft, they decided to be roommates. They spent the next 3 years conquering volleyball courts, hiking trails, and more than the occasional karaoke night in the beautiful PNW.
Michelle Schoon
Bridesmaid
Voted High School best friends, Michelle and Chanell went off to College in California where they soaked up the Cali sunshine and spent every minute by each other's side. From endless beach adventures to getting lost on hikes and finding the best secret pools, the adventures never end. Now they're both back in Seattle and looking forward to the release of their first hip hop album beats by M&M feat. CJ and Ricki boi.
Chloe Bryant
Bridesmaid
Chloe and Chanell could not be more different from each other. Growing up as sisters they fought like crazy but also had some of the best memories together. From frequent trips to their cabin in Eastern Washington to thrift shopping in Seattle their adventures spanned far and wide. As they've grown older they have learned that no one will have your back quite like your sister. These days they share more laughs than ever as they watch Addison grow.
Alayna Forler
Bridesmaid
Alayna and Chanell's relationship began where all great things are found... on Craigslist. Alayna was looking for a roommate, Chanell a home closer to her new job. Given their shared love for their own space and for Alayna's adorable pets they quickly grew from roommates to friends. Chanell knows Alayna will be there for her no matter what, even when that means rescuing her from the side of the road after dropping her car keys into the lake while paddle boarding.
