Mother of the Bride
"If you don’t know the guy on the other side of the world, love him anyway because he’s just like you. He has the same dreams, the same hopes and fears. It’s one world, pal. We’re all neighbors." – Frank Sinatra Words can not express the level of gratitude I have for my mothers love and patience. I hope I succeed in life making you proud and standing for the morals and values you have modeled. You gave me the gift of life and I intend to make the best of the lessons you have provided. I will always hear your giggles and "teehehees" over lizards and greenery, bike rides and the sound of silence. My mother Paulette, is a hard rocker, a fierce athlete, a day seizer, and a cultural sponge. Thank you for all of our journeys and thank you for being by my side for the biggest of them all. <3
Mother of the Groom
My mom, Eileen, is everything I could have ever asked for in a mom. She has always been there for me no matter what. I could never thank her enough for how much she has given, struggled, or given up for me throughout my life. My mom has always ensured that I was provided with every opportunity and experience available throughout life. Her encouragement and support have enabled me to develop aspirations beyond my own imagination. She has supported my journey to achieve them and has helped to unburden obstacles. I would not be where I am today without her guidance and support. I reflect daily on the lessons and values I have learned from her. Thank you, mom, for everything. I am so grateful to have you with us on this most special day!
Father of the Bride
"Older and wiser voices can help you find the right path, if you are only willing to listen."-Jimmy Buffett My father not only taught me the importance of learning from those before me, but also the wisdom that can be found from the one and only Jimmy Buffet. :) I credit many things to my father Todd Poynter, including my insatiable love for 80s metal, financial goals, the value of education, and dare I say meeting the love of my life. It was a combination of a family love for Pink Floyd, an office connection, and a trip home to Germany that quite literally sat me next to Sean. I am so thankful for the love, education, forgiveness, and patience my father has shown me. I will cherish it and respect him forever for it. I cant wait to dance with you dad, even if I'm too big for your toes. <3
Father of the Groom
There is nothing that I would want more than to share the experiences of my wedding day, than with my dad. He will be with us in spirit, and for that I am grateful. For those of you that knew him, you know how caring and how big of a heart he really had. As a father, he was someone who taught me many valuable lessons in life, which I am so grateful for. He is one of the core reasons I have grown up to be the person I am today. I am thankful for all of the beautiful memories I have from my childhood, all the way up until our final days together. Sadly missed along life’s way, quietly remembered every day… No longer in our life to share, but in our hearts, you’re always there.

Matron of Honor
My favorite sibling ( just kidding Todd! ;) ) , my best friend, my confidant, a beautiful soul, a beautiful mother, and the best sister in the whole world. I could not wish on stars for a better human to stand by my side as I cry in front of family and friends professing my love for Sean E. Hall. My sister Brittany, is an amazing artist and is on a new journey for a SECOND degree to teach ESL. My sister inspires me with her art, her love for people, nature, and reminds me to find beauty in small ways in this world. Best of all! She has given me an amazing little flower girl for this wonderful event, my beautiful niece Josephine. So blessed and excited to have you by my side Bibi! <3 -Kiki
Best Man
John has been my best friend for almost three decades now after being brought up together. We were fortunate to have parents who were childhood friends as well. I have countless memories of growing up with John and the entire Karmazin family throughout my upbringing. All of which I cherish as they have greatly helped me become the person I am today. John is one of the most loyal people I know, and I could not be happier to have John by my side as my best man.
Bridesmaid
Kristianne "Kristi" Hall is by far my favorite sister-in-law! ;) Kristi's old soul often provides me with perspective and outlook of life otherwise overlooked. Her passion and knowledge of music is borderline savant level and always makes me want to run out to buy more records. As a published writer, Kristi inspires me to put words on paper and practice my recordings of live as I experience them. This wedding is not just about Sean and I's commitment to each other, but also the commitment of joining our families. I am so thankful to be gaining you as a sister and take the role as if we were born of the same blood. Your encouragement of my union with your brother is an extreme honor and we are both so excited to have you stand by our side. -Kaitlin
Groomsman
Chas has been one of my best friends for almost 16 years now after meeting him in high school. Sharing an interest in computers, cars, music, and games, we quickly became friends, which grew into a cherished friendship over the years. Although we do not live near each other, every time we are together it is like we never missed a beat. Like my best man, Chas is someone I can always trust and could not be more excited to have him as one of my groomsmen.
Bridesmaid
Sara, O' Sara, where do I start!? An insanely loyal friend, an enigma of patience, my voice of practicality, a fiercely loving mother, and might I dare say a scary card/board game player... seriously. :) Though juggling a full time profession, and being a mommy of two adorable boys, Sara still manages to pour time into family. I am truly blessed to have had you through the challenges of growing up, and homesickness. Thank you Sara for being an uncompromising friend and standing beside me on this very special day. AND letting me borrow the cutest little boy to be our ring bearer! Love you Gray ;) -"Aunt Titi"
Groomsman
Cayle is Kaitlin’s cousin, and since moving to Colorado he and I have become good friends over the past few years. Cayle and I share many of the same interests and share a similar background creating a bond which is hard to find. Cayle and his wife Sara welcomed us into their lives with open arms as soon as Kaitlin and I moved to Colorado. Cayle and Sara also blessed us with the opportunity to become the godparents of their son Kaeson. Cayle and I have found ourselves in problematic situations testing our bond to only making it stronger. For that and the memories we have made for the last few years, I could not be more delighted to have Cayle by my side as one of my groomsmen.
