Matron of Honor
Alli and Alisa met in college, became roommates and BOOM! They've been best friends ever since.
Best Man
Jim and Alex met growing up in Franklin and made a lasting bond answering phones at Pizza Hut, conducting amateur small motor repairs and listening to Poison the Well.
Maid of Honor
Sarah and Alisa have known each other since their middle school days at Parkway Central and have remained best friends no matter the miles between them.
Groomsman
Jim and Matt first met at Robinwood Elementary School, but it wasn't until high school that their shared love of the school band and anti-authoritarian music would forge a lifelong friendship.
Bridesmaid
Alisa met Allie in 5th grade at River Bend Elementary School. From grade school to now, these two have been thick as thieves.
Groomsman
Jim and Jordan first met while working at Guitar Center in Scottsdale, Arizona in the summer of 2010. They became quick friends, and eventually roommates. They could probably hold a cohesive conversation in Dave Chapelle quotes. Jordan is credited with being the conduit for Jim's first introduction to Alisa.
Bridesmaid
Brittany and Alisa met each other through a friend and have bonded over their mutual love of dogs, music and the best Tempe dive bars.
Groomsman
Jake is the elder brother of the groom. They spent their younger years playing Nintendo and recreating live action Star Wars scenes using figurines. Once the wedding weekend madness draws to a close, Jake will be jetting back to New Zealand to continue life's adventures living that #vanlife.
Bridesmaid
Liz is Jim's younger sister. She is a passionate outdoorswoman and talented artist. You may recognize her watercolor skills from the wedding invitation! You'll find her on skis in the winter and in hiking boots every other time of the year. She once lived on a glacier and spent two months living out of a backpack traversing New Zealand's Te Arora Trail.
Groomsman
Anton is Alisa's younger brother. The first time Jim ever reached out to Anton, he slid into his DM's. Jim needed a favor and Anton was happy to help out. Without that help, there wouldn't have been a proposal. If you ask him to clean and jerk you nicely enough, he just might do it.
Bridesmaid
Katie is the elder sister of Jim (even though they share the same age for 6 weeks every year). She is an incredible mother of two and is a fashionista and make-up aficionado.
Groomsman
Paul is Jim's Kiwi brother-in-law and they got on splendidly from the first time they met. Paul once flew to Arizona to get a driver's license using a Wisconsin address as a New Zealand citizen for purposes of buying a Harley and shipping it back to New Zealand. What else do you need to know?
