Rachel & Eric
Wedding Party
Natasha McCann
Maid of Honor
Rachel sat next to Natasha their first day of EMT school in Spokane and honestly, first impressions weren't exactly stellar as both are a bit . . . awkward. Little did Rachel know Natasha was the next best thing to come into her life! In no time, they found themselves laughing through class, life and into friendship! She is a friend of a lifetime and Rachel finds herself honored to have Natasha with her as MOH. Natasha, or as Rachel lovingly calls her, Natty Ice, lives in the Dallas/Fort Worth area in Texas.
Adam Reevesman
Best Man
The brother of the groom. Adam and Eric have been through their ups and downs like any siblings, but ultimately they are as close as can be and are best friends. Eric can think of no one else he would rather have as his best man. Adam has always been there to support Eric through every other transition in life and it seems only fitting that he is the right hand man to support Eric and Rachel as they say their "I Dos" and transition into life as a married couple.
Cami Puzzo
Bridesmaid
Cami, Rachel's Italian "sorella" is crossing the pond to be here for the big day! As an exchange student at Centralia High School from her home in Pesaro, Rachel and Cami bonded on and off the volleyball court, creating a lasting friendship that crosses borders. Cami's bright spirit and contagious laughter lights up Rachel's world- like others in her life, Rachel says she's lucky to have Cami be a part of her life. Cami now lives in Milan, but is so excited to be back in her second home, Washington!
Justin Moore
Groomsman
Justin and Eric have known each other since preschool and have been best friends for over 20 years. From every stage of life, Eric and Justin have always been inseparable and supported each other. Whether it was playing tee-ball, soccer, and basketball as little kids, going off to college, finding a career, or just the everyday issues that life has to offer, Justin has always had Eric's back. Eric is excited to have Justin up front with him to support his and Rachel's marriage.
Caitlin Volk
Bridesmaid
Caitlin is Rachel's sister from another mister. From Kindergarten through their childhoods Rachel and Caitlin were inseparable! She is what you may call a "pistol," keeping Rachel in check and telling her like it is while never letting her forget how much Rachel means to Caitlin. Last year Rachel was blessed to be a part of Caitlin's big day and much to her anticipation, we've come full circle. Caitlin is a product of the local area and lives in Toledo, WA with her husband Wyatt and their many sheep "children."
Austin Dunn
Groomsman
Austin and Eric first met as roommates in the dorms at Sacramento State their freshman year of college. Despite Eric waking Austin up with his loud alarms at 5 am and Austin scaring Eric by quoting Shakespeare in his sleep, they found out they were both weird of enough to become best of friends. Throughout all four years of college; and even once they both left the Sacramento area to pursue their individual career goals, Austin and Eric remained extremely close. Austin's smart-alecky personality is the life of every party and Eric is excited to have him as a groomsman to help him celebrate his wedding day.
Ashley Buckeye
Bridesmaid
Ashley, or Smash, is a down right good time and a down to earth, good soul. Ashley took Rachel under her wing when Rachel worked for Spartan Race and the two became fast friends. Grinding through long days at work and coming out on the other side with smiles on their faces, they've seen each other at their best and worst! Everyone needs that friend that would fight an angry bear for you with one arm tied behind their back. Ashely is that friend. Rachel's "chude" (chick-dude) currently lives in Phoenix, Arizona.
Will Plummer
Groomsman
Will and Eric first met in the dorms at Sacramento State and were then roommates for the rest of Eric's 3 years in college. Will and Eric became extremely close in college and were best of friends. Will's caring and kind personality is matched by his great sense of humor. His honesty and genuine compassion for those he cares about is something Eric always appreciated. These two have supported each other through heart break and great success alike. Eric is excited to have Will by his side as he says his "I Dos".
Maria Weber
Bridesmaid
Maria was the little Russian puzzle piece missing from Rachel's life till they met in 5th grade! Her bubbly, lively energy has brought Rachel out of her shell and she's taught Rachel how to live life to the fullest! Their friendship blossomed into a sisterhood in high school and they've navigated life's adventures and misadventures together over the years. Maria now lives Washington, spending most her time in the sky as a flight attendant travelling the country.
Robert "Rigby" Helwig
Groomsman
Rigby and Eric met in college while in the dorms and became close friends. They were both in the Sacramento State Racquet Ball Club and despite Rigby's sarcastic comments about Eric's "amazing" racquet ball skills, a friendship was born. Even though they now live in different states, they have stayed close and always have a great time when one another comes to visit. Rigby is that sarcastic friend that can add humor to any situation and is willing to do almost anything for those he cares about. Eric is excited to have such a great friend be there to help celebrate the wedding.
Charli McCall
Bridesmaid
Charli swears Rachel is the reason she passed Pre-Calc junior year and Rachel swears that having Charli as a friend kind of made her one of the cool kids! Their friendship began in Mrs. Dulin's class and grew over the years grabbing drinks, reminiscing and catching up, figuring out this whole growing up thing whenever Rachel was back in town. She's a wild time when you want it and a shoulder to lean on when you need it. Charli is also a local, born and raised, bringing up the cutest little dude this side of the Mississippi: Sawyer, with her fiancé, Weston.
Drew Davidson
Groomsman
Drew and Eric met in early high school and have been great friends ever since. Being practically next door neighbors in Elk Grove, these two were always together and got to go through so many milestones supporting one another. From hanging out and getting into plenty of trouble as teenagers to supporting each other's collegiate and career accomplishments, Eric and Drew have always been thick as thieves. Eric is happy to have one of his greatest friends support him as he marries the love of his life.
Katelyn Carlisle
Bridesmaid
Katelyn is the type of person you meet and you just know this friendship was meant to be. Every ounce of Katelyn is gold; she's the kind of person Rachel wants to be when she grows up! From bumping to gangster music through town, to being covered in dust and exhaustion and all their adventures as co-workers/roommates working for Spartan Race, Katelyn and Rachel have a lot to look back on in a short time! Katelyn and her boyfriend, Big Junior currently live near Austin, Texas with their fur babies, Precious and Zoe!
Junior Chavarria
Groomsman
Eric and Junior met through Spartan Race and became fast friends ever since! No matter where these two are or what they are doing they always have a blast! Whether it is showing Eric around Austin, TX, meeting up in Memphis, TN, or working together at a Spartan Race in some random city, Junior's sense of humor and endless sarcasm never fails to make hanging out together a great time! Junior is one of the most genuine, funny, and generous people Eric knows and he is very happy to have him be a part of his and Rachel's big day.
