Wedding Party
Anna Martin
Matron of Honor
Anna is Sera's younger sister and has had the privilege of growing up with Sera being only 11 months younger in age. Anna and Sera have been best friends and enemies since 2000 and that hasn't changed a bit.
Julia Meyers
Maid of Honor
Julia was Sera's law school mentor and has since become one of Sera's best friends. They shared amazing times together throughout law school and have since stayed close friends. Although Julia warned Sera about Dalton in the beginning Julia has been a big part of Sera and Dalton's relationship and is now their biggest supporter.
Alexa Grillis
Bridesmaid
Alexa is one of Sera's best friends that she met through Dalton. Alexa works with Dalton and her and Sera became best friends instantaneously after meeting. Both Alexa and Sera feel lucky that Alexa endures Dalton at work just to be friends with Sera. Sera and Alexa now hangout and love to go on double dates, specifically if wine is in the picture and the boys DD.
Toniann Buddenberg
Bridesmaid
Sera and Toni met their first year of college and have been inseparable since. They cheered together briefly at Akron and have both lived near Akron and have enjoyed too many nights at Portage Lakes together.
Erin Gordon
Bridesmaid
Erin is Sera's best friend from high school and has stayed close through the years even being miles and miles apart. They played sports together, grew up together, and Erin has gotten a chance to be close with Sera's entire family.
Kelseigh Wright
Bridesmaid
Kelseigh is Sera's longest friend going all the way back to Panda Preschool. She has since been roommates with Kelseigh and the two have only gotten closer the older they have gotten. Her boyfriend, B, has become a close friend to Dalton and as a group the couples love taco dates and hanging out together.
Garrett Decker
Bridesman
Garrett was Sera's roommate in law school and is Sera's biggest hype man, one of her closest friends, and also slightly jealous that Sera ended up with Dalton (he would have also settled for Wes if given that option). Sera and Garrett are both now lawyers and love to spend time together and Garrett was around for the very beginning of Sera and Dalton being together and continues to be a big part of their relationship now.
Concetta Seidler
Bridesmaid
Chetta is one of Sera’s best friends that was luckily brought in to her life by Dalton’s Best Man. Sera and Chetta love spending time together, harassing the boys about dogs, and going on double dates. Chetta and Sera are excited to enter the next chapter of being married together and hopefully raising some little baseball players in the years to come.
Joel Hake
Best Man
Joel and Dalton played baseball together at Youngstown State and became best friends when they lived in the same dorm room in Athens for the Copperheads (to Joel’s demise due to Daltons smelly socks). Joel and Dalton have been scramble partners and Fantasy Football confidants since. Joel always has Daltons back and couldn’t be a better friend to him. The two talk constantly and text more than two grown men probably should. No one is more deserving of being a Best Man.
Noah Merrill
Groomsman
Noah and Dalton met in middle school when Noah moved to Manchester. Noah spent the next 6 years protecting Dalton on the offensive line. In that fashion, Noah has continued to be one of Daltons closest friends and have his back. And of course, is always the first call for a “yap session”. On any given Friday, you are likely to find the two talking nonsense watching some trash tv show at Dalton’s house.
Jack Hettich
Groomsman
Jack is one of Daltons first friends and right from the jump the two were inseparable and always up to no good. That never changed. Even after Jack joined the Airforce and moved all over the country, the two still talked weekly and made time for the friendship. Even when the two don’t see each other for months at a time, they always pick off right where they left off (and the bourbon hates to see it).
Josh Horning
Groomsman
Josh and Dalton met in kindergarten and Josh was Daltons first true friend. The two grew up side by side wreaking havoc on John’s road. From countless bonfires to Vegas trips, the two have done it all together. If Josh is in northeast Ohio, you are likely to find Dalton with him with a beer in hand (and Maria and Sera taking shots).
Andrew McFadden
Groomsman
Andrew and Dalton have always been best friends (and each other’s biggest competition). The two played football and baseball with (and against) each other for over a decade. Whether it was Andrew in the batters box with Dalton on the mound trying to strike him out, or lined up against each other in an Oklahoma drill, the two were always trying to beat the other. This led to an incredible friendship that has lasted their entire lives. They remain close friends, and still manage to compete in flag football (and anything else they possibly can).
Josh Villers
Groomsman
Josh and Dalton were friends since highschool, but were never close friends at that point. It took the two starting Akron Law the same year to really build a great friendship. The two suffered through law school and numerous cold calls (which neither were ever prepared for) together. This led to countless weekend trips and hangouts to escape their shared law school hell. Josh always manages to make any situation more fun and get Dalton out of his shell (including the rare sighting of Dalton singing karaoke). Post lawschool, the two maintain a great friendship, which Sera and Rachel often are annoyed about because the two “talk to loud” when they are together.
Coye Schuler
Groomsman
Coye and Dalton have been great friends since Coye moved to Manchester. Coye was the grade below Dalton, but integrated himself into Dalton’s close circle. Coye is always the first to be down to clown and always is there for Dalton, no matter what the issue Dalton has is. Coye and Dalton have been great friends since the moment they met, and that never changed. If there is a cold Busch light that needs to be drank, you can find Dalton and Coye putting them back.
Cody Lappin
Groomsman
Cody and Dalton have been friends for as long as either can remember. The two played baseball together since coach pitch and always locked down the middle infield. The two developed a great friendship on and off the field, from turning double plays to betting on mountain west football at the wee hours of the night, the two are always scheming something up. The two maintain a great friendship and continue to partake in the occasional gambling degenerate behavior.
Ben Wiest
Officiant
Ben and Sera were familiar from home when they entered lawschool together. In fact, she knew him as “blackout Ben.” Due to their familiarity they quickly became extremely close friends and study partners. Sera introduced Ben to Dalton in the summer or 2023 where they instantly hit it off. The three eventually even moved in together in Cleveland in a two bedroom apartment the following summer. Since then Dalton and Ben work at the same firm together and to sera’s displeasure, have became very close friends (some would say Dalton has stolen Sera’s best friend). On occasions you can find the trio drinking slightly too much living up to Ben’s old nickname.
