Wedding Party

Kirsten Garren

Maid of Honor

Kirsten is one of Kaitlyn’s three sisters. Kirsten has always been one of Kaitlyn’s biggest supporters and for this Kaitlyn is forever grateful. Kirsten and Kaitlyn have shed many tears together, whether happy or sad, but they have always gotten through everything together. The girls have dreamt of this day since they were little girls, and Kaitlyn cannot wait to have Kirsten by her side on the special day.

Joseph Wildzunas

Best Man

Andrew and Joseph's relationship is a classic tale of the enemies to lovers trope, if it was traditionally a brotherly love. Andrew met Joseph through their local church's small group, and clicked because of their common interest in movies. Both engineering students, they had a lot in common but always seemed to be arguing for the sake of it. Eventually, they realized that they ought to just be the best friends they naturally could be, and have been great friends since.

Lillian Garren

Bridesmaid

Lillian is Kaitlyn’s youngest sister. Lillian is so fun to be around and will always make whoever she’s around laugh. Kaitlyn has enjoyed getting to give Lillian advice, and also receive advice from Lillian in return. Lillian is wise beyond her years (most of the time). Kaitlyn has gotten to watch Lillian grow and mature into who she is, and she is beyond excited for Lillian to be a part of this big day.

Christian King

Groomsman

Christian and Andrew are two peas in a pod. He and Andrew met through their campus ministry at the University of Alabama, and became good friends through years of Bible studies, campus ministry events, movie nights, and trips. Fun fact: the two of them drove to the 2024 Penn State Whiteout game and spent 20+ hours in the car together over one weekend and never had one fight!

Emily Beers

Bridesmaid

Emily is Kaitlyn’s older sister. She has played a major role in Kaitlyn’s life, always offering big sister advice when it’s needed. Emily is one of the most kind hearted people that Kaitlyn knows, and she will always be grateful to have Emily as a big sister. Emily has also always been someone that Kaitlyn can count on, and Kaitlyn is very grateful to have her as a bridesmaid on this special day.

Jaxson Zuccala

Groomsman

Jax and Andrew met in a Cookout parking lot because they “needed to meet” because they “both like movies.” Andrew and Jax ended up leading a small group Bible study for a year together while they lived as roommates. They watched some movies while they lived together along the way.

Lauren Dorrill

Bridesmaid

Lauren has been Kaitlyn’s roommate for nearly two years now. Lauren is full of Godly wisdom, and has always challenged Kaitlyn to better represent the Lord in all that she does. Lauren is filled with joy in all that she does, and she truly has brought that into Kaitlyn’s life. She has prayed for and with Kaitlyn so much through their time living together. She is one of Kaitlyn’s closest friends, and Kaitlyn is excited to have her as a bridesmaid on the big day.

Rylan Corley

Groomsman

Rylan and Andrew met through Chi Alpha and have been very good friends over the years. Rylan has been a part of so many major experiences over Andrew’s time at college, including acting as a gray squirrel in a mockumentary and going to Atlanta for the SEC championship.

Callie Corley

Bridesmaid

Callie is another one of Kaitlyn’s closest friends. They met through Chi Alpha, the campus ministry they were both in throughout college. Callie is someone who shows the Lord well in all that she does, and it has truly impacted Kaitlyn. Callie and Kaitlyn also lived together as roommates during Kaitlyn’s senior year, and the nights full of laughter and Target runs will always be some of Kaitlyn’s favorite memories from college.

Liam Rosener

Groomsman

Liam and Andrew have been good friends both in Chi Alpha and at church. He introduced Andrew to his favorite activity, caving, and has matched Andrew’s chaos like few people have been able to.

Caroline Wildzunas

Bridesmaid

Caroline is a close friend of Kaitlyn, and they have recently become even closer. Caroline is truly one of the funniest people to be around. She has showed Kaitlyn how to be vulnerable and has already given Kaitlyn so much advice on married life. Caroline is someone who will fight for her friends’ happiness, and Kaitlyn is grateful to have a friend like her in her corner.

Vincent Reed

Groomsman

Andrew and Vincent first became friends doing Concert & Pep Bands in middle school, and have been friends ever since even through high school and college. Vincent’s movie taste is mediocre at best though.

Millie Benefield

Flower Girl

Clayton Meek

Ring Bearer

Caleb Dayer

Officiant

Caleb Dayer was a missionary with UA's Chi Alpha Campus Ministry for the entirety of Kaitlyn and Andrew's time involved during college. He moved to Alabama in 2013 to be a campus missionary and met with Andrew for 1-on-1 discipleship in the last year and a half of Andrew's college career. Kaitlyn has been friends with Caleb and his wife Lizzy since joining Chi Alpha in her sophomore year.
