Wedding Party

The Wedding Website of Sydney Gatchel and William White
Meet the Homies

Kiley

Maid of Honor

Kiley and Sydney met 13 years ago while living in the same freshman dorms, and she’s been by her side ever since. From their college days (including her infamous alter ego “Kyra”) to being roommates and navigating life together, she’s truly seen it all. She’s the only friend Sydney has traveled internationally with—taking on England, Scotland, and Iceland together—and she’s been there to witness our relationship from day one to where we are now.

Chelsey

Bridesmaid

Chelsey came into our lives through her husband, Shawon, working at Founders and quickly became someone we couldn’t imagine life without. She’s incredibly sweet and genuine, but always willing to give you the reality check you didn’t know you needed. She’s become such an important part of both of our lives, and we’re so lucky to have her.

Haley

Bridesmaid

Haley and Sydney met while working together at Founders, and she’s been a fierce and loyal presence in our lives ever since. She’s the kind of person who will do absolutely anything to protect the people she loves. As a fellow member of the “only child's club,” she and Sydney share a special bond, and we are so grateful to have her in our corner.

Jenna

Bridesmaid

Jenna and Sydney also met at Founders, and she’s always up for a good impromptu hangout—which usually turns into the best kind of memory. From our regular Wednesdays together to being part of the “only child's club,” she brings so much fun and spontaneity into our lives. We are so lucky to call her a friend.

Lauren

Bridesmaid

Lauren and Sydney met at Founders (yes there's a trend here), and she’s one of the most caring, compassionate (and wonderfully silly) people we know. Fair warning—Will will tell you not to leave Lauren and Sydney alone with drinks for the sake of everyone’s eardrums. Life is always more fun with her in it, and we wouldn’t have it any other way.

Summer

Bridesmaid

Summer and Sydney met at Founders when Sydney trained her on her very first day—and the rest is history. From gaming setups and sleepovers to bonding over a shared love of reading, she’s become such an important part of both of our lives, and we’re so lucky to have her.

Tashi

Bridesmaid

Tashi and Sydney met at Founders and quickly bonded over being science nerds. She has the most unique laugh ever heard, and it’s guaranteed to make any moment better. Funny enough, Sydney actually knew her now-husband years before the two of them ever met—proof that it’s a small world after all. We’re so lucky to have such a fun, genuine, and one-of-a-kind friend by our side.

Aidan

Best Man

A friendship with over a decade of history. Every season, every win, every difficulty, Aidan has been there to support Will & Sydney.

Alex

Groomsman

A man with a huge heart and so many incredible talents. Alex has been an anchor in Sydney & Will's life for many years. They have laughed together, dealt with difficult times together, travelled together. It was a no brainer for Alex to be apart of Sydney & Will's special day.

Jake

Groomsman

College roommates (to both Will & Sydney) to co-workers, co-workers to lifelong friends. Jake has always been a reliable and endlessly funny friend to both Will & Sydney.

Michael

Groomsman

A kind soul who will go out of his way to support his friends. Michael has always been someone that Sydney and Will can confide in and do life with no matter what the circumstances are.

Nolan

Groomsman

Many people would say you don't build real relationships with your co-workers. Nolan was a different story. Will & Nolan have worked with each other for years and have developed a true bond with one another. Fun fact: in 2013 they were both at the same concert together and would not meet until years down the road.

Shawon

Groomsman

Shawon and Sydney met as coworkers and she initially believed that he hated her. They had no idea that he would become a lifelong friend. While incredibly sarcastic and annoying (in Sydney's words), he would drop everything in an instant to help those he cares about.

Mike

Officiant

Mike has been such a great friend to both of us, and we are truly honored to have him officiate our big day. When we say it feels meant to be, we mean it—having a friend named Mike Priest step in as our officiant pretty much writes itself. We couldn’t imagine anyone better to help us celebrate and kick off this next chapter of our lives.

Lola

Best Girl

Lola is a huge part of our lives and will be joining us for the ceremony. Sassy, playful, and a bit of a princess, she keeps us laughing daily—especially with her signature side eye. She’s been by our side through it all, and it wouldn’t feel right celebrating this moment without her.
