Wedding Party
Jacquelyn Gray
Matron of Honor
Jackie, my matron of honor, is my triplet sister, my best friend, and my biggest cheerleader. One of two girls in our trio, she has always been my constant — a true ray of sunlight with the most bubbly, personable spirit that makes everyone feel instantly welcomed and at ease. She has a beautiful way of reminding me that softness is a strength and that leading with kindness is always a virtue. This past year, we made the special decision to live together, and it has been the sweetest chapter — a true last hoorah before we both begin our next seasons of marriage. Having Jackie by my side, not only as my sister but as my matron of honor, means more to me than words can ever express.
Christian Martinez
Best Man
Christian, my best man, is more like a brother than a friend. We’ve been causing trouble and sharing laughs since second grade, and growing up alongside him has been nothing short of a privilege. Generous, genuine, and endlessly loyal, he’s the kind of person who’s always got your back. I honestly couldn’t imagine standing at the altar without him by my side, and I’m so grateful to have him in my life.
Kristen Byrne
Matron of Honor
Kristen, my matron of honor and my older sister, is truly the life of the party. She is effortlessly fun, endlessly hilarious, and the kind of person who brings energy and laughter wherever she goes - if you are wondering who is the girl dancing all night, it's most likely her. While she’s a go-with-the-flow kind of girl, she never hesitates to lovingly put you in your place — a balance I’ve always admired. She has been my mentor, my best friend, and one of my greatest role models, someone I look up to with deep admiration and gratitude. Though we’re both hard-headed in our own ways, I secretly love when people say we’re a lot alike — because there’s no one I’d be prouder to resemble.
Frankie Fragale
Groomsman
Frankie is my older brother, and I’m endlessly grateful for the way he’s helped guide me down the right path by example, advice, and a few hard-earned lessons along the way. Growing up with him meant constant lessons, laughs, and a front-row seat to the kind of person he’s become. It’s been a true joy to watch him grow as a brother, a father, and a person. He’s one of the most disciplined people I know, yet somehow always makes time for fun, and meaningful experiences.
Julianna Echavarry
Bridesmaid
Jules is someone who has been part of my life for over ten years and truly feels like another sister to me. She is absolutely hilarious, endlessly loyal, and the kind of person who would give you the shirt off her back without hesitation. We’ve shared some of the craziest, funniest, and most unforgettable moments together — the kind that turn into lifelong memories. Her friendship has been a constant source of laughter, comfort, and unconditional support, and while words could never fully capture how much she means to me, having her by my side on this day means everything.
Charlie Sorg
Groomsman
Charlie and I have known each other since junior high, which basically means I've been surviving his nonsense for decades. From lifting weights to questionable golf swings and too many bad ideas along the way, he’s always been the guy I can count on. Responsible, dependable, and somehow always ready to make life more fun. Whether it’s a laugh or sound advice, Charlie’s been there through it all.
Brianna Curtis
Bridesmaid
Brianna came into my life in the most unexpected and special way. We met in Iceland when our soccer team paired us as roommates, and from the very start, we just clicked. I’ll never forget stepping off the plane, jet-lagged and exhausted, only to be greeted by Bri with food waiting—a small gesture that perfectly captured her kind and caring heart. Bri is fun, full of life, fiercely loyal, speaks her mind with honesty, and always shows respect for different perspectives. Even after she moved to California, our friendship has remained unshakable. She is someone I know will be in my life forever—a true lifelong friend whose presence makes everything brighter.
David Molnar
Groomsman
David and I met playing baseball for the Cardinals around the age of 5-6, and from the start he’s been someone who could always captivate a room. He is one of the funniest, most creative, and kind-hearted friends I know, with an unmatched ability to make any moment together a memory for life. There’s never a dull moment with him around, and I’m lucky to call him a friend.
Emily Aldrich
Bridesmaid
Emily is one of the sweetest, most caring friends I could ever ask for. She is someone I can truly count on in every season of life. She wears her heart on her sleeve and isn’t afraid to be vulnerable, which has created a friendship rooted in honesty, trust, and deep connection. Over the years, she has been a constant shoulder to lean on and the first person I run to with both my worries and my good news. Through her love and example, she has helped me grow not only as a person but also in my faith. I am endlessly grateful for our friendship and know in my heart that we will remain close forever.
Jake Modaro
Groomsman
Jake is always the loudest guy in the room—from screaming at the TV every time the Steelers get knocked out in the first round of the playoffs to making his presence known as my roommate for the past three years. He’s never afraid to speak his mind, and somehow manages to make every day more entertaining.
Ilissa Ray
Bridesmaid
Ilissa, my bridesmaid and future sister-in-law, has felt like family from the very beginning. From the moment we met, she has been incredibly warm and welcoming — personable, fun, and someone who doesn’t take life or herself too seriously. We quickly bonded over our shared enthusiasm for all things organic and health & wellness, and in so many ways she reminds me of my older sister: loving, spirited, and never afraid to speak her mind. Watching Ilissa’s life evolve — becoming a wife and a mother — has been such a joy and a true delight, and I feel so grateful to now have her by my side as she gets to witness our love story grow and evolve too.
Michael Siegele
Groomsman
Michael is my future brother-in-law and someone I’m incredibly lucky to call family. He is genuine, smart, and always finding a way to make me laugh. We quickly bonded over our shared love of music and video games, and his positive energy is contagious. Michael has a unique ability to make everyone around him feel happy, and I’m so glad he’s standing by my side on this special day.
