Julia Koppman NortonJulia Koppman Norton
Maid of Honor
Julia and Willie met in the fall of 2012, when they both joined Alpha Chi Omega at UC Berkeley. They quickly became attached at the hip, solidifying their friendship while serving on the AXO Exec Board. Post college, they stayed as tight as ever, even while living on opposite sides of the country. Julia got into Columbia for her Masters, which meant she and Willie got to live together in NYC- a dream come true!
Warren AmidonWarren Amidon
Best Man
Warren and Michael (Mike) have been friends since they were 11 years old and surviving Boy Scouts together. They have stayed close ever since, consistently camping, hiking, and exploring new breweries together. Now Warren, his wife, Rose, and their son, Henry, are delighted to have Willie as part of the gang.
Matt LaceyMatt Lacey
Bridesman
Willie met Matt in the summer of 2015 during her first season at The Muny. He was the PSM for her last show that season, and from the moment she met him, she knew she wanted to be like Matt when she grew up. Luckily for her, Matt didn't think she was half bad, and continued to tolerate her believing he was her mentor. After working together on more than 15 shows, he is not only her mentor, but one of her closest friends.
Matthew BlagysMatthew Blagys
Groomsman
Michael's brother, with his wife, Kelley, and kids, Brennan and Bailey, are delighted to welcome Aunt Willie to the family. Matt was the first person to call Michael after THE first date...not because he found out through Michael but through Kelley and the "connection."
