Christina & Steven
Wedding Party
Sarah Klepzig
Maid of Honor
Sarah and Christina lived on the same floor of their dorm Freshman year at The Ohio State University. Sarah was Christina's date to every formal, date party, wedding, family party, etc. They've remained inseparable and has become a part of the Negray family.
Jack Matten
Best Man
Jack and Steve became friends in high school, playing both soccer and basketball together (as well as dozens of rounds of mini golf during free periods). Nowadays, Jack and Steve argue about college football and how overrated the SEC is.
Julie Sfiligoj
Bridesmaid
Julie and Christina met Freshman year of High School. They created a bond that lasted through different Colleges and Professional Schools/adult life. Christina loves that even after working an 80 hour week in Medicine, Julie remains the life of the party.
Sam Shetty
Best Man
Sam and Steve have known each other since middle school at Sewickley Academy and quickly became friends in high school, both playing on the basketball team. Sam is one of the biggest Ohio State fans even though he went to Pitt and is getting his MD from WVU. Make sure to yell at O-H at the wedding and Steve guarantees Sam will be the loudest I-O.
Amy Fisher
Bridesmaid
Amy and Christina have known each other since elementary school, but they became very close during the beginning of high school. They were on the same dance team together and Amy was the "cool older girl" who could drive - even though she drove on the wrong side of the road the first time she picked Christina up. Amy and Christina are committed to their annual trips between Columbus and Chicago. Christina stood by Amy's side in September '18 and is so excited to have Amy standing by her side.
John Schneidenbach
Officiant & Groomsman
John, better known as Johnny Have One (JH1), joined the friend group in 2020 and his love of Short North bars, backyard parties, and having a good time quickly kept him around. There probably isn't anyone in the wedding party that's shared more nights out with Christina and Steve than JH1. So, they had to make him the Officiant!
Meghan Lembright
Bridesmaid
Meghan and Christina became immediate friends at dental school orientation - even though Meghan went to U of M for undergrad (boo). Meghan was always a light throughout Christina's time in school, remaining positive. She is always ready for an Aperol Spritz or slice of pizza. Meghan and Christina remain in communication through Bravo TV, Big Brother, and dentistry.
Brian Holland
Groomsman
Brian and Steve have known each other since 2017, when Steve was interning his summer before his senior year. Brian and Steve share a deep fandom for the Steelers which is hard to find when you live in Ohio. Brian's greatest skill is always being the life of the party at weddings!
Gabi Beltrano
Bridesmaid
Gabi and Christina went to Dental School together. They formed an inseparable bond by avoiding schoolwork and celebrating game days. Christina had the pleasure of standing by Gabi's side in September '23 and she is so excited for Gabi to stand by her side. Gabi has been Christina’s go to advice giver during the wedding planning process.
Josh Vander Plaats
Groomsman
Josh and Steve have known each other for over 7 years, first working together at Lancaster Pollard (and frequenting many bars together with TJ and Brian) and then joining VIUM together. While also both members of the Athletic Club of Columbus (ACC), it's safe to say that they see a lot of each other and still are friends which is quite impressive. Steve had the honor of standing by Josh's side at his wedding in November 2024.
Brittany Munn
Bridesmaid
Brittany is Steven's younger sister and as Christina will say, "the superior Munn." Brittany and Christina formed a bond through working out, Ohio State football, and professional school. Brittany is the only person who can keep Steven and Christina calm during OSU football games. Brittany is the sister Christina always wanted!
TJ Ake
Groomsman
TJ and Steve also first met in Summer 2017 during Steve's internship. TJ quickly took Steve under his wing as a mentor, except it wasn't at work. TJ and Steve could often be found at the local bars (mainly Callahan's) a few times a week with Josh and Brian. Steve believes that's the only reason he got the full-time job offer. Steve had the honor of standing by TJ at his wedding in June 2022.
Chloe Fairchild
Bridesmaid
Chloe and Christina became instant friends Freshman year after after joining their sorority, Kappa Alpha Theta, and getting sent home from an event for having too much fun. They share the same sense of humor and have supported one another throughout each other's life achievements, including Chloe's son, Bodie, who was born in April '23. Christina lives for the daily videos of little Bodie and swears he’s the cutest baby ever!
Chris Gump
Groomsman
Chris and Steve first met....at some bar? Steve's favorite story about Chris is the entire summer of 2020, where Chris let the friend group renovate his entire backyard and make it the perfect backyard party spot. To this day, they've never settled who could outdrink the other (it's Steve).
Collin Ricker
Groomsman
Collin and Steve first met the same way as he and Chris... at some bar (this is starting to get sad). Quickly, they became friends over their shared fandom of the Buckeyes and Oddfellows. Steve's favorite story with Collin is when they stumbled upon some random house party and Collin let Steve take someone's guitar and start a sing-along...
