Wedding Party
Aly Orr
Maid of Honor
Hey everyone! I’m Aly, and I am beyond excited and grateful to be Ashlyn’s Maid of Honor! We met back in high school, and from the start, we’ve shared so many amazing memories, and endless laughs (till we cry) together. I’m seriously so lucky to have such an amazing friend like her, and I couldn’t be more thrilled to celebrate her big day with all of you!
Haylee Courson
Maid of Honor
Ashlyn and I have known each other since we were about 5 or 6 years old. We have gone from learning how to flip together, to helping each other get married to the love of their life. We are trading sparkly leotards and scrunchies for veils and wedding dresses over 20 years later!
Anna Cook
Bridesmaid
I first met Ashlyn back in our sorority, but little did I know how close we would become just a few years later. I started dating Ryan’s best friend in 2023 and that quickly led to Ashlyn and I becoming best friends! Even though I technically never lived in the Keys, I spent all of my free time there! From boat days, to brewery trips, to game nights at their house - Ashlyn became family to me. I’m so grateful to celebrate this special day with her and continue to double date with our guys forever!
Tory Cohen
Bridesmaid
Ashlyn and I met at gymnastics! From as long as I can remember, we were flipping and twisting together, Haylee, Ashlyn and I were the 3 musketeers taking on all the competitions together! The moment I wore my favorite shirt with ladybugs on it, we were inseparable. “Don’t Bug Me”, we’re forever besties!”
Jolie Hudson O'brien
Bridesmaid
Ashlyn and I were born as cousins, but raised like sisters, sharing countless memories and navigating life’s biggest milestones together. From childhood adventures, to the ups and downs of adulthood, we’ve always been by each other's side. To be a part of Ashlyn’s wedding as a bridesmaid feels like a natural continuation of our journey together. It’s such an honor to stand beside her on one of the most important days of her life. I couldn’t be more excited to witness this next chapter of her love story.
Jon Gebka
Best Man
Ryan and I became friends at UCF, but we were never too close because of our different schedules. Little did I know, one Facebook post from him would change so much. I ended up moving in with Ryan to work with him for only a summer in the Keys. That turned into multiple years, creating countless memories, unforgettable moments, and a friendship that I can’t live without. I had the pleasure of being there for the beginning of Ryan and Ashlyn’s relationship, and bugging them all the time along the way. I am so happy to celebrate them, stand by their side, and can’t wait to see what they accomplish in life together!
Connor Harmon
Best Man
I'm a 6’2 caucasian male from Las Vegas Nevada. I'm currently a medical student at Nova Southeastern School of osteopathic medicine, trying to build the brains to go with my insanely good looks and athletic build. I met Ryan in 2016 when I joined ZBT and lived with him from 2017-2019 after being kicked out of my apartment and brought in off the streets by Ryan and his loving family. After becoming the best of friends, I graduated from my masters at UCF and moved down to the keys to live and work for Ryan again. I met Ashlyn at some point in college and practically lived with her in Ft. Lauderdale during my masters degree, becoming yet again, best buds with her. I have been close to all the members of the grooms party and know that with their influence, there is a chance to potentially ruin my professional title at some point during the wedding weekend.
Chad Lenzi
Groomsman
I'm Chad, the groomsman who’s been keeping Ryan out of (and sometimes in) trouble over the last 5 years. When I’m not busy giving him terrible advice, I specialize in offering moral support through sarcastic comments. I also love reminding Ryan of all the embarrassing stories he hopes I won’t share on his big day. If there's one thing we all know, it's that Ryan and Ashlyn know how to live life in paradise. It's clear that these two are the perfect anchors for each other (see what I did there). I'm honored to have been able to watch them grow and build their island paradise together. Cheers

Weighing in at 170lbs and 5’10” - I’m the true Hawaiian Bachelor (on Tinder I’m 6 foot). I currently manage the finances for multiple companies in the Biotech industry, while also managing 5 professional fantasy football leagues. Ryan and I first met in 2016 at UCF as young pledges - that was the year we became men. Since then, we’ve taken on the world and emerged victorious. It’s truly an honor to be a part of this special day and can’t wait to see what amazing things Ryan and Ashlyn achieve in their beautiful future together.
