Sarah & Daniel
Wedding Party
Ashley Queener
Matron of Honor
Best friends since middle school, Sarah and Ashley have starred in high school musicals together, pledged a fraternity in college together (yes - a fraternity), lived together throughout college, and have sung along to more songs on long car drives than can be counted.
Jaime Mason
Maid of Honor
Jaime and Sarah were both travel agents - Jaime helped train Sarah to do the job! - and became fast friends. Jaime does killer impressions and they have more inside jokes than they can keep track of.
Ellie Petro
Bridesmaid
Ellie and Sarah met studying abroad with Semester at Sea. They bonded over being part of the same fraternity at their different colleges (Ellie lived in Ohio), and forged an incredible friendship while traveling to Italy, Croatia, Turkey, Portugal, and other countries.
Madison Bumbarger
Bridesmaid
Maddi and Sarah went to high school together but really got close when they both worked at AAA. They play in the same D&D campaign (Maddi and her husband are players - Sarah is the DM!) and trade books back and forth (it's always great to have a friend with the same taste in books as you!)
Lora Osborn
Bridesmaid
Sarah and Dan "fought" over having Lora on their side of the aisle! The three of them met through Red Williams and pirate festivals. Lora is a spot of sunshine whenever anyone needs some serotonin in their life. Throughout the pandemic they have exchanged art, video game hours, and lots of memes.
Ian Gilbert
Best Man
Originally from Texas, Ian and Dan met in high school while doing technical theater. They bonded over their love of video games, and also play video games, while always making time for video games. Ian is a truly singular friend you can always count on through the years.
Red Williams
Best Man
Red is the gas pedal, Dan is the brakes. Introduced through AJ, their "odd couple" friendship has grown deep and wide through some wild times. Red sponsored Dan for a spot in their pirate crew, which has been an endless source of joy ever since. They both love beer culture, getting outside, and really dumb humor. He is a fiercely dedicated friend, and the absolute life of the party.
Sterling Falkenstein
Groomsman
Dan also met Sterling in high school, and he quickly became the older brother Dan never had, despite being exactly a year younger. Wiser than his years, and easily getting laughs from anyone, Sterling bolsters those around him and catches them if they stumble. Kilts, camping, and cans of chili fill the memories of their time together. And more video games.
Tyler Farra
Groomsman
Tyler likes shovels.
Sawyer Mizer
Groomsman
Sawyer is the new guy. Dan and Sawyer met once in February of 2020, and grew a great digital friendship over the next couple years. They share a love of books, board games and Quint the shark fisherman from Jaws. Sawyer is dastardly fashionable, and a wonderful friend.
AJ Allen
Honorary Groomsman
Another high school friend, AJ and Dan now work together, hike together, and (you guessed it) play video games together. They can bicker with the best of 'em, but at the end of the day they make a great team. AJ wants the best for his friends; to lift them to greater heights, and help them reach their destiny.
