Groom
He gets to be the bride's husband on the 17th. Ryan was born and raised in the Bay Area. He has had lots of interesting jobs but most recently ran the 1-5th grade ministry at Resonate church while maintaining employment as a machinery-moving semi truck driver. In addition to this he serves with the high school group, is undergoing training for eldership at the church and loves to create things out of metal or wood... anything that "looks cool"!
Matron of Honor
Best friend from Haverford College. Dentist and mother of three. All around awesome woman and the closest thing to a sister that the bride has ever had. Been through thick and thin together and couldn't imagine marrying Ryan without Allison by her side!
Best Man

He has lived and traveled all over the place, but has been a Union City resident for the last 8 years. Chase has been one of Ryan's closest and most trusted friends, and always has provided a supportive and encouraging presence as it concerns the bumpy world of dating, but also in life in general.
Maid of Honor
Unofficial adopted sister into the Solt family. Moved down from Washington to join the ranks of the Coroner's Office. Alana recently began serving on the Hospitality Team at Resonate Hayward.

Bridesmaid
Christi and K'Lynn have been friends, for what it seems like, forever - their families met at Quail Lakes Baptist Church and these two spent many years learning how to be grumpy together, especially while reading books and ignoring the boys.
