Groom

Arielle RutherfordArielle Rutherford

Bridesmaid

Jen and Arie were paired at work by fate (aka Renae) and have been inseparable ever since. Arie is a tattooed powerhouse, the ultimate dog mom to four chaotic angels, and a fierce advocate for everyone she loves. Even from far away, she makes sure Jen takes care of herself—usually with a perfectly timed text, a surprise package, or toys for the cats. She’s strength, softness, and loyalty all in one, and Jen is endlessly grateful to have her in her corner.

Cole WolffCole Wolff

Groomsman

Cole is one of Kyle’s best friends—and technically his first wife, thanks to their Final Fantasy XIV wedding. They’ve been close since middle school, bonding over nerdy obsessions like board games, Final Fantasy, and most recently, Magic: The Gathering (Cole finally caved).He’s been by Kyle’s side through every dungeon, deck build, and dumb inside joke.

Kimmy JonesKimmy Jones

Bridesmaid

Kimmy’s not just Jen’s sister—she’s her first best friend, partner in chaos, and fellow fantasy nerd. Whether they were slaying orcs through the forests of Tennessee with bright orange sleds as shields, and bow and arrows made from sticks and string, or obsessing over manga (Hana Kimi forever), they’ve always been on the same wavelength. She’s steady, fierce, not to mention the best napping partner and soup lover but also always there when it matters most.

Sean BurrightSean Burright

Groomsman

Equal parts thoughtful and chill, Sean is one of those people everyone’s instantly glad to know. When he met Kyle, their shared love of anime, games, and a solid board game night sealed the deal. Bonus points: he married Jen’s sister Kimmy, so now game night is a family tradition—with cold drinks and good company guaranteed.

Stephanie BrownStephanie Brown

Bridesmaid

Jen and Stephanie have been best friends since high school—so basically forever. Stephanie is a dreamer, a rockstar mom of two, and Jen’s number one food fanatic- especially if it’s Korean. Their friendship has survived bad haircuts, teen drama, and the chaos of adulthood—and it’s still going strong.

Alex MaxeyAlex Maxey

Groomsman

Alex has been one of Kyle’s best friends since the awkward middle school days and stuck around through all of it—from high school hangouts to the Bellingham chapter where they kicked off adulthood. He’s an incredible artist, an even better guitarist, and always down to crush a game late into the night.
