Sarah & David
Wedding Party
Rebecca Saunders
Maid of Honor
Little description required--one minute apart in age, together until 21 & occasional twin-connections (like having the exact same dream on the same night once when they were 9!).
Andrew Tange
Best Man
Closest friend of the groom - co-conspirator in nearly all activities from snowboarding to Hilltop Hoods to zombie pub-crawling.
Sha Sha Lu
Bridesmaid
Affectionately known as 'Summer' by the bride, they have been close friends for over 10 years--ever since that fateful move-in day at WashU.
Michael Pavlik
Groomsman
Brother of the groom. Together they've been annoying their little sister (and parents) for a couple decades, with more to come.
Grace DiRenzo
Bridesmaid
They formed an immediate bond as post-docs in the Zipkin lab & have had many adventures together--apple picking, painting nights, a trip to Spain, chocolate massages....
Christian Mulvany
Groomsman
Cousin of the groom, and always making sure Dave stays up to date on the coolest music and culture of Chicago.
Anna Pavlik
Bridesmaid
Sister of the groom, but she's treated Sarah as a sister from practically the moment they met. Soon to be official!
Andrew Galbraith
Groomsman
Cousin of the groom, and closest in age (born several weeks apart). Get them talking about birds (especially owls!) and they'll never stop.
Gena Pang
Bridesmaid
Sarah & Gena met at WashU, but really became friends when they ran into each other at a coffeeshop in East Lansing in 2015. Through aerial yoga classes, game nights & their shared foodie obsession, Gena & Sarah have made the most of living in EL together!
Matt Galbraith
Groomsman
Cousin of the groom, introduced Dave to fantasy football, and has yet to help Dave land a Muskie.
Stephanie Schubel
Bridesmaid
Sarah & Steph met through piping plover field work in 2010 & have been through countless plover-related adventures over the years--from camping on remote islands (sharing a tent of course) to flying in a float plane, these two get along no matter what!
Eric Galbraith
Groomsman
Cousin of the groom and frequently helps him with his macro photography and insect identification.
Adam Saunders
Officiant
Cousin of the bride. No matter how long it's been since they've seen each other (and how many miles have separated them over the years), these two act like it was only yesterday!
