Gordon & Ashley
Wedding Party
Holly McKenna
Matron of Honor
Though these two couldn’t be more different, Ashley couldn’t be prouder to have Holly for a sister. She is the most determined and headstrong person Ashley knows, and is such an inspiration in Ashley’s everyday life. Ashley is so grateful to have this pint-sized beauty as her Matron of Honor on her big day....but she better let Ashley be the prettier one...just this once!
Dan Marseglia
Best Man
A true brother-in-arms, these two became friends and bonded over their shared love of video games, awkward humor and the dankest of memes. Throughout adventures at PAX, Dan desperately trying to find a beer that Gordon would like (spoiler alert: he never did) and drinking whiskey together, a true friendship was formed.
Taylor Davis
Bridesmaid
This girl is one of the most important people in Ashley's life. She is one of the strongest and most ambitious people she knows, and is such an inspiration in so many ways. Their 10+ years of friendship has meant the world to Ashley and she was so grateful to have been by her side when she got married. She could not be more excited to have Tay up there by her side for her big day.
MacKay Olson
Best Man
Many days and nights were spent paying Nintendo 64, Rainbow Six (the first game!) and Starcraft. They even played in a band together for a little while, although the band decided to go their separate ways after being deemed "too good" by BillsBoard Magazine.
Allie Creighton
Bridesmaid
This wonderful human has been such an important part of Ashley’s life over the past 8 years. Through thick and thin, Allie has stuck by her and been an amazing friend through it all. Her biggest talent may be always being able to make Kunu roll over during our FaceTime chats. Ashley is so excited to have Allie be a part of this special day!
Mackenzie Maynes
Groomswoman
From the moment she brought cookies to zulily, Gordon knew he had found a lasting friendship. She also takes credit for introducing Gordon to her now-husband, Dan. The facts are murky here. But the important thing, is that they have been through life's highs and lows together and has been there for him even when it was very hard.
Haley Carpenter
Bridesmaid
This gorgeous gal has been an amazing friend to Ashley since they met in college. She is super smart, hard working, and knows how to make a mean cocktail. Ashley is so excited to have her by her side on her big day, and also watch her marry her man a few weeks prior!
Michael Leaning
Groomsman
Whether building a Go-Kart together with Gordon and Gordon's dad, playing Super Nintendo, or trying new (to Gordon) food from Japan, Michael was Gordon's first real friend after moving from California to Washington. After Michael and his family moved back to Japan, they reconnected when they were both living in Florida at the same time.
Preslie Brown
Bridesmaid
There are not enough positive words in the dictionary to describe this amazing lady. From instantly bonding over their love for Frenchies, these two became instant BFFs. Ashley cherishes this friendship immensely, and is so grateful to be by her side while she marries her man as well!
James Semivan
Groomsman
You never really know if someone is going to be just a work friend, or if they will become a true life real friend. James weaseled his way in to Gordon's life with a shared sick sense of humor, late nights at the office and more than one drunken night of playing games, hanging out with the dogs and significant others and being woefully unprepared at a wine tasting.
Casey Hill
Bridesmaid
Ew! This sweet gal has been nothing but an incredible friend to Ashley since college. Whether it was living together, exploring Seattle, or just hanging out doing nothing, Casey has been there through it all for the past 7+ years. Ashley is so thankful to have such an amazing person like Casey in her life.
Dorey Olsen
Groomswoman
It all started when Dorey dumped an entire container of mocha sauce in an empty trash area, causing mocha to splatter everywhere when they worked at Starbucks together. That's when Gordon thought to himself, ah yes, one of my people has emerged. Dorey has been through a lot of Gordon's life's ups and downs, the good times and the bad, and has always been there for him. She is a kind, caring free-spirit who has always been able to push Gordon outside of his comfort zones and is also good at pushing all of his buttons, Elf in the Empire State Building style.
Alex Demello
Bridesman
Thanks to bridesmaid Casey, these two met in college and instantly became friends. Demello has been there for Ashley through everything ever since, and she could not picture her life without him! He is her biggest supporter, shoulder to cry on, and overall an incredible friend.
Adrian Ho
Bridesman
Ever since these two met, they have been inseparable. Wether it be a music festival, or just sitting around watching TV, it is always a great time! He is such an amazing friend, he hosted Gordon and Ashley's wedding ceremony in his back yard. Ashley is honored to be the "Best Person" at his wedding next year.
Sydney Lu
Bridesmaid
This little nugget is the little sister Ashley never asked for, but is so grateful to have. These two can't go more than a few hours without talking and they could not be closer. She is Ashley's personal hype woman and supports her in everything she does. Ashley is so excited to have her by her side!
Mark Sutherland
Officiant
Over 8 years ago, Ashley asked Mark to officiate her wedding, whenever that may be. Now it is finally happening and she couldn't be happier that the dream is actually coming true! Ashley and Gordon are so grateful to have such a great friend do the honors on their big day.
