Wedding Party
Izzy Burke
Maid of Honor
Hey! I'm Izzy, the lovely maid of honor and the cute one in the middle. I have known Kelsey for a VERY long time. I was friends with her sister, and then I started working with Kelsey at the Greenbrier Daycare. I decided that since one Walsh was cool, I might as well give the other Walsh a shot too! I obviously thought Kels was pretty cool because here we are now. I'll see you all on the dance floor!
Josh Ayres
Best Man
I’m Josh Bam’s youngest brother. As the shirt suggests, I hunt for morel mushrooms and I know things. I’m especially good at beating Kelsey at Mario Party and pretty much any game we play. I’m a God-fearing man who loves his family dearly.
Emma Riedman
Bridesmaid
Hello, my name is Emma. I love dancing, theater, and being on stage! I am so fortunate to have so many amazing aunts and uncles, including Uncle Danny! Uncle Danny has always been there for me when I need him and always makes us feel so special! I am so excited to be a part of this special day and gain another wonderful Aunt in Kelsey!
Matt Riedman
Best Man
I am a dedicated family man with my wife, Erika, and father of 3 girls Maria, Emma, and Elsie. I believe in the power of taking risks and hard work to get the most out of life. Whether I’m managing our properties or training for my next CrossFit milestone, I try to bring a sense of discipline and heart to everything I do. Outside of the gym and the office, I am a true student of the "low and slow" lifestyle; you can often find me tending to my smoker or grill for the perfectly cooked meats. Some would say its the best they've ever had. As a collector of all things nostalgic or unique I like to thrift to find the next thing to flip for my next sale. I’ve learned to appreciate the journey just as much as the destination which is why traveling and experiencing new things are always on the top of the to do list.
Callie Rader
Bridesmaid
Kelsey and I have been close since we were born, just 5 days apart! From horse camp, to pool days, to fashion shows in the backyard, we have made countless life long memories together! Im so excited to see Kelsey explore this next chapter in life and all the new memories we will make with our men!
Jackson Carroll
Groomsman
I’m Jackson, the bride’s cousin. I’m so happy to be here celebrating her and Danny on such a special day.
Jordan Bratcher
Bridesmaid
I’m the youngest sister, and I’ve always looked up to Kelsey not only as my sister, but as one of my lifelong best friends. I’m especially thankful for the role she played in introducing me to my husband, Adrienne, which is something I’ll always cherish. I’m so happy to celebrate this day and cannot wait to see all the love and happiness married life brings her.
George Janacek
Groomsman
I met Danny while we were both working retail, and we quickly bonded over our shared love for music and video games. He even introduced me to my wife, Natalie, and I’ll be forever fucking grateful for that. Even after we stopped working together and moved to different states, our friendship has stayed strong, and I still carry Danny and our friend Thomas in video games every Friday night.
Riley Walsh
Bridesmaid
Hey! This is Riley, I'm Kelsey's sister and so freaking excited for this wedding!!! Growing up, Kelsey and I had one of those "fight you cause I love you" dynamics but even when I was annoying her on purpose she always found her way to show me how much she cared. I think Danny's the best guy she's ever introduced me to and am so happy to have a brother to talk about Hades 2 and other nerd stuff. Being a bridesmaid in this wedding fills my soul, and I'm so happy to be cheering for my sister on that altar. Love you guys!!!!
Thomas Vasquez
Groomsman
I met Danny through fellow groomsman George, online of all places, while playing Overwatch. After having a great time gaming together online, we finally met in person at George’s bachelor party, where we bonded over beer, board games, and anime. Since then, we’ve only gotten closer, with regular board game nights at my place and, since Danny moved, Friday night video games becoming our routine.
Sarah Reid
Bridesmaid
I’m a proud wife and mother of two amazing children. I wear my heart on my sleeve and always try to help anyone I can. I’m a notary and the owner of my own cleaning business, which keeps me busy—but when I’m not in full-on dance mom mode (which is several days a week!), I love spending time in the kitchen cooking for my family. I’m truly a kid at heart. I love all things Disney and I’m completely obsessed with Harry Potter. One of my absolute favorite things to do is spend the day at amusement parks with my kids—I’m a total roller coaster fanatic, just like my son! I’m so excited to be part of my cousin Danny’s special day, and we couldn’t be happier to welcome Kelsey into our crazy, loving family. We first met Kelsey at a family cookout, and she even helped tutor my daughter in reading. She’s not only an incredible teacher but an even better friend. From the moment I met her, I just knew she and Danny were meant to be—and she fits perfectly into our family.
Jesse Reid
Groomsman
Husband, C.O. and Proud Father. I am hard working and enjoy hunting, shooting, cooking and gardening. If I like doing something I try to perfect it. Always trying to improve whether improving my accuracy at the range or making the perfect plate for my friends and family. Danny and I were friends before we even knew we were family. When my family moved back to PA I met Danny at school and we became the best of buds. Then one day at a family get together I saw him there and was so happy to see him. My Mother then informed me that we were cousins which was the best. We became very close growing up always together and when we got older and living a little further apart we would still try to meet up and hang out. Many sleep overs, miles hiked through woods, and video games played together. Some of best memories I have.
