Wedding Party
Analiese Holmes
Matron of Honor
I’m thrilled to have my incredible friend and roommate of 5 years, Analiese, by my side as my Matron of Honor! From childhood shenanigans to late-night study sessions in college, she has been more than just a friend—she’s truly like a sister to me. Analiese has a heart of gold and a contagious energy that makes every moment unforgettable. Whether we were navigating the ups and downs of growing up or celebrating our successes, she has always been my biggest cheerleader. Her unwavering support and boundless kindness mean the world to me.
Dominic Micheli
Best Man
Best man. CEO. Ordained minister. He was the guy I called whenever it was 2 am on a school night after I realized I had no notes and no rubric for the assignment due later that morning- he was always in the same boat. Though we both went to Cistercian, I first got to know Dom over xbox. Dom showed me he was not only a friend, but a best friend the summer after our freshman year of high school: after I suffered a very small vertebral fracture and was couchridden for weeks, Dom cleared his empty schedule to play entire nights of Call of Duty with me regularly. Another core memory of mine is watching Dom drive a pallet jack into the wall of Mr. Flaherty’s office while we were studying for finals. Aside from video games, Dom’s next greatest talent is an impressive ability to get kicked out of anywhere in Louisiana. Ask him about paint parties.
Nicole Herleman
Bridesmaid
I’m so excited to have my wonderful "little sis," Nicole, as a bridesmaid! From the moment we met in our sorority, I knew she was someone special, and our bond has only grown stronger through the years. As my roommate and travel buddy, we shared unforgettable adventures, including our amazing biological field study experience in Kauai. Those sun-soaked days filled with laughter, late-night talks, and exploring new places truly brought us closer together.
James Flaherty
Best Man
Best man. Doctor. Ideas guy. Embroiderer. I didn’t meet James until our second year at Cistercian, after he had taken off half of sixth grade to travel. I got to know James more in high school during Stewart’s theology tutoring sessions. After seeing some of his grades on those quizzes, I was always a bit skeptical whenever he told me his plans to go to medical school (to be fair, this turned out to be one of the more ridiculous classes we took). But the marathon of applying to, and getting through medical school really brought us close. He is a “glass 100% full” type of person, and his need to always do something makes for awful phone calls, but great times together. Fun fact: we took an end of college trip to Europe together with Dom, and afterwards I came back really jet lagged. So, for a while after coming home, I worked out in the mornings, which is when I met Sarah.
Jadyn Williams
Bridesmaid
From our high school days filled with cheer activities, art classes and spontaneous adventures to standing by my side on the biggest day of my life, Jadyn has been a constant source of joy and support. With her infectious laughter and incredible spirit, she can light up any room! Not only is she a fiercely loyal friend, but she's also a creative soul with an aptitude for fashion. Whether we were dreaming about the future or the highs and lows of teenage life, Jadyn always brought a positive perspective and unwavering encouragement.
Stewart Schweinfurth
Groomsman
Groomsman. Therapist. 4 career fantasy football toilet bowl appearances in our high school league. One of my first friends at Cistercian, Stewart often stuck out as about 10 years more mature than the rest of us- yet he’d frequently play down to our level. Since we were part of the same small group throughout high school and because he was the theology tutor for most of our class, he is responsible for much of my growth as a person in high school. Due to his mom’s wonderful snacks, his TV/game system setup, and ample couch cushions for forts, Stewart’s upstairs living room was one of my favorite places in middle and high school. Fun fact: Stewart was the one who first introduced me to the fitness center where I met Sarah.
Heather Graham
Bridesmaid
I’m beyond excited to have my amazing sorority sister and college roommate, Heather, standing by my side as a bridesmaid! From our late-night study sessions to our unforgettable sorority adventures, she has been an integral part of my college journey—and now, we’re both on the path to earning our PhDs! Heather is not only brilliant and hardworking, but she also knows how to bring fun and laughter into every situation. Her passion for accounting and dedication to her research inspire me every day. Together, we’ve navigated the highs and lows of undergrad and graduate school, supporting each other through every challenge and celebration. Fun Fact: Heather was friends with Landry before I met him and it was her endorsement that led me to say yes to a date with him!
William Angus
Groomsman
Groomsman. Stool-breaker. Influencer. When I finally got an xbox just before high school, William became a close friend and mentor. He was there for all of the most important events in my life- Nuketown 24/7, double XP weekends, and snow weeks. It’s really difficult to describe how funny someone is, but one memory might help: often during one particular class in high school, every once in a while when the teacher would turn around, he would throw his own books off his desk and loudly blame the guy who sat next to him. Poor Connor would never know what to say, and I remember the teacher sending him out to the hallway at one point. I don’t know why I watched that and decided I wanted to be friends with that guy, but I’m glad I did.
Alexandra Molinari
Bridesmaid
I cant wait to have Alexandra by my side as a bridesmaid! From the moment I met her in elementary school, she captured my heart with her vibrant spirit and kindness. Over the years, she’s not just been my friend; she’s truly become my little sister. Watching her grow from a bright-eyed little girl into the amazing mother she is today to Adelina has been one of the greatest joys of my life. It’s been a privilege to share so many milestones together—through childhood adventures, young adulthood, and now navigating the beautiful chaos of motherhood.
Hunter Mansfield
Groomsman
Groomsman. Doctor. Golf partner. Harmonicist. I lucked out getting Hunter as a roommate when starting medical school. It’s been an honor watching him grow- from having a 6 foot poster of Arnold Schwarzenegger in his room and eating entire pizzas in one sitting to now filling our living room with 3D printers and eating whole bags of peas in one sitting. It should tell you a lot about his character that his closet has more sports equipment than clothes in it. Up for anything, Hunter showed he fit our group well on a trip to Lake Charles, where for a wonderful, brief moment we had the cost of our airbnb covered.
Lexi Loesch
Bridesmaid
I’m so thrilled to have my amazing college best friend and sorority sister, Lexi, by my side as a bridesmaid! From late-night study sessions to unforgettable adventures, we’ve shared so many ups and downs that have shaped our bond into something truly special. Now a dedicated teacher, Lexi inspires her students every day with her passion and creativity. Watching her grow into the incredible educator she is today has been such a joy, and I admire her commitment to making a difference in the lives of others.
Christopher Wainerdi
Groomsman
Groomsman. Roommate. Still a fan of Johnny Manziel. I always thought Chris exaggerated about how long he had to drive from Plano to Irving for school every day. After staying at Chris’s house one night and getting to school late the next day despite leaving an hour and a half before class, he earned my respect. I owe my mid-range game to playing basketball in his driveway with him and his brother throughout middle school. But he still owes me for the vodka he took and swapped with tap water while we were roommates. Chris’s passion made me even more of an Aggie and Mavs fan, and therefore a better person.
