Wedding Party
Mary Beth Shipley
Officiant
Mary Beth, or MB, is my mother; she'll be joined by Kasey Beth Lennox (my sister), to provide a level of maturity and guidance that will be substantially lacking from the Groom's side of things...
Benjamin K Bachman
Best Man
Is it possible to have a 'Best Man' that you haven't physically seen for over a decade? #breakingbarriers
Pattarawadee (Dear) Tongkoom
Maid of Honor
Dear is one of the most down-to-earth people on Alin's side of the fence; we're extremely excited to have her there!
Gabriel Quinto
Groomsman
Gabe-san is honoring Alin and I by attending the wedding ALLLLLLLLLL the way from friggin' Guam. Wow.
Nisa Koedjaroen
Bridesmaid
Alin's best friend and one of her closest confidants; this was an easy choice.
Jeffrey Lloyd Shildt
Groomsman
Big Jeff Shildt. What more is there to say? Along with Benjamin K Bachman, he's known me the longest of any of my friends ('05). We lived together, we worked together, we deployed together, and we occasionally had our disagreements... but if there were a war tomorrow and I needed someone to do job XYZ, there's no hesitation in my mind that Jeff would get that call.
Peeraya (Preaw) Menthong
Bridesmaid
Another of Alin's close friends, Preaw is a ray of sunshine that will surely make you smile!
Dean Kirby
Groomsman
He survived Fleet Week in NYC with me, he's built like a WWE superstar, and he's officially listed as a Surface Warfare Officer... though I'm not so sure that he fits the bill on that last one. Glad to have him in attendance all the way from Seattle (bleh).
Napasorn (Aom) Chivalak
Bridesmaid
Another of Alin's closest friends, Aom is last, but certainly not least, on the list of bridesmaids! She's a riot, and if you don't see her comin', you'll absolutely hear her. #volumewarning
