Wedding Party
Kris Karns
Best Man
Kris is the best man for a reason. Through their many years of friendship he has been a constant support and source of guidance, and occasionally lets Joe win a game or two of basketball.
Alex Lichtenberg
Groomsman
Friend of the groom since high-school, the two quickly bonded over their many shared interests, ranging from the academic to athletic, although they may greatly differ on their opinion on Aaron Rodgers.
John Klak
Groomsman
A human energizer bunny, John and Joe have done many runs together, with John quickly leaving Joe in the dust, but he always comes back to support him through the last few miles! Always down for an adventure, John is a reliable friend for good times and bad.
Colton Schara
Groomsman
The bride’s older brother, Colton channels Ron Burgundy, smelling of rich mahogany and owns many leather-bound books. Always caring and loving, he is the best brother Kate could ask for.
Amanda Geoffroy
Maid of Honor
The bride’s mostly-reformed partner in crime and roller-coaster buddy for life, Amanda brings her RN experience to the maid of honor roll, calmly assisting with wedding plans and supporting Kate through all stages of her big day.
Chrissy Reindal
Bridesmaid
The little sister Kate never had, Chrissy was the bride’s college roomie, where they quickly bonded as Pisces and over their superior napping skills.
Shannon McGinn
Bridesmaid
Living in Colorado but at Wrigley Field in her heart, Shannon has been friends with the bride since middle school. While the physical distance may have grown, Kate and Shannon stay close through their FaceTime marathons.
Eliza Peterson
Bridesmaid
Sunshine in human form and the bride’s hype woman, Eliza has been Kate’s road trip companion for many years, and will help coach Sully as our resident animal whisperer. Tell your dog she says “Hi!”
Jae Ritchie
Officiant
Kentucky native and friend of the bride and groom who will help guide them into marriage. Her wife lovingly refers to her as a burnt marshmallow - tough on the outside, but underneath that a soft center with a true heart of gold.
Arjen & Ailan Karns
Ushers
Future soccer stars and self-proclaimed experts in Mario Kart, albeit through the use of every shortcut known to man, Arjen and Ailan are pleased to help you find your seat at the ceremony.
Sully Wachtveitl
Ring Security
Sully is gearing up for his big role as "Ring Security" at the wedding. With a keen nose for treats, he's ready to ensure those rings make it down the aisle—just as long as there's a reward waiting at the end!
