Jacqueline & Zachary
Wedding Party
Jennifer Dugovich
Maid of Honor
J-Baby and Jack-a-lacka. Best friends since 2009 at Ohio State and roommates at Fechko House. We first bonded over our weekly outings to random house parties (and regrettably, frat parties), which lead us to realizing that this would become a fun friendship. Although we now live 2 hours apart, we still indulge in the occasional video chat sessions and overnight visits full of movies on our laptops and too much junk food.
Nathan Hackley
Best Man
Zach's consigliere, travel co-pilot and former roommate. Nathan and Zach met on the playground in elementary school. Their friendship has now seen five US presidents, three Michael Jordan championships and one very awkward screening of "Harold and Kumar Escape From Guantanamo Bay" with Nathan's mom.
Christie Lightfritz
Maid of Honor
Fechko House produces lifelong friendships. With Christie, I can definitely say that she is forever one of my best friends. We have traveled together on ASH trips to Chicago and DC. We've driven together to Michigan as well as Florida. Most of all, our love for sushi and crab legs are what keeps us BFFs. Pretty sure that she's the only person who truly understands me. She has really helped me through this wedding planning process. Christie is the person I can always trust to be honest.
Christian Merrill
Best Man
Zach's cocktail partner in crime, former roommate and known historian of some of Zach's darkest moments (which is horrifying). Christian and Zach met at a house party in college while passing each other at a door. "You two look like twins!" was shouted in their general direction and was followed up by a debate on which was the evil twin. Time has shown us that it was Zach who is the evil twin. He and Zach are preparing to write the script to their upcoming Russian period piece comedy film "Dude, Where's My Czar?"
Andi Mireles
Bridesmaid
Who would have thought that a 100-mile bike ride was what brought us together? Between riding bikes and working as servers at Hang Over Easy, she became one of my favorite humans. Andi is the friend who helped me leave my comfort zone. With her, I learned to become more independent and learned how to camp and road trip across the country. Our trips through the beautiful Northeast and the long drives through the Midwest toward the National Parks have been some of the best trips I've ever been on.
Joseph Mead
Groomsman
Zach's confidant and bodyguard. Proud papa of Henry. Joey and Zach met during a beach volleyball session where Joey began to mock Zach's serving routine. Zach thought it was hilarious and realized this man needed to be in his life more. The rest is bear hugs and history baby,
Christine McMasters
Bridesmaid
This fabulous woman/co-worker best friend stepped in as a bridesmaid due to unforeseen circumstances. I could not ask for a better person to join my bridal party. Christine and I formed a bond rather quickly after I switched to the later work shift. This friendship has lead to occasional weekend outings for our "Finer Things Club." Honestly, if I had to be stuck at work until 4am again, I would still pick her to be on-call with (but I hope it never happens again).
Billy Renftle
Groomsman
The voice of an angel with the sense of humor of the devil: Billy Renftle. Billy and Zach met in high school through a female friend Billy was dating. Zach quickly realized that Billy was hilarious they became close as college came into view. Billy and Zach became famous for screaming nonsense and quoting the movie "Strange Wilderness" at parties.
Matthew Watson
Officiant
A smooth talking lawyer man sent to marry Jackie and Zach? Guilty as charged. Matt and Zach met when Matt was born, and were forced into the same household as the result of being brothers. Zach watched Matt grow from being a child who made unsolicited dinosaur noises into a licensed lawyer who makes unsolicited dinosaur noises.
