Wedding Party

Meet our wedding party! These are friends and family who have been with us through thick and thin, and we're so grateful to have them by our side as we celebrate this special day.

Gillian Petro

Matron of Honor

As sister of the bride, Gillian has known Susan the longest of anyone in the bridal party and therefore has the most blackmail material. She's joining us from Silver Spring, MD.


Todor Kolev

Best Man

Faith De Andrade

Bridesmaid

Faith met Susan on the steps of Jordan Hall in 2016, and their friendship was sealed for life when she bought Susan a bag of cookies to enjoy during intermission. Faith is joining us from Boston, MA.


James Appleyard

Groomsman

Marjorie Freimuth

Bridesmaid

Marjorie and Susan have been friends since 2012 when they were roommates during a study abroad semester in Vienna, Austria. Their friendship has lasted across innumerable time zones and largely keeps WhatsApp in business. Marjorie is joining us from Paonia, CO.


Sam Backus

Groomsman

Gina Giufré

Bridesmaid

Gina is the reason that Susan survived undergrad and lived to tell the tale! They met the first week of music school and collaborated (pianist & singer) for a long time, until they realized their rehearsals were 90% talking and laughing, 10% practicing. No regrets! She's joining us today from Syracuse, NY.


Mark De Andrade

Groomsman

Kayla Grant

Bridesmaid

Kayla and Susan met as shy-but-precocious first graders and have been friends ever since. They've supported each other through all sorts of ups and downs, and they're in too deep now to ever not be friends. She's joining us from Ann Arbor, MI.


Jacob Lenz

Groomsman

Susanna Sernett

Bridesmaid

Susanna and Susan met in 2012 when Susanna was the RA for the study abroad semester in Vienna. Susanna's life advice (offered over the years in both English and German) is a major reason why Susan is the well-adjusted human being you see today. Susanna is joining us from Vienna, Austria.


Ryan Terry

Groomsman

Sarah Chodakewitz

Officiant
