Wedding Party
Natalie Harwood
Maid of Honor
Shister has no choice but to be THE maid of honor. Our 2003 selves would be shocked to see how close we are today. You can count on Natalie for always laughing at shared TikToks and painting you landscape decor for your bedroom
Andy Harwood
Brother of Honor
Since Andy had no idea what a bridesmaid proposal box looked like, it was a true surprise for him to stand on the ladies side of the aisle. Ruby’s favorite uncle, skier extradonaire and prone to any gym accident, he'll be crushing it on the dance floor with a walker on standby
Shelley Chestler
Best Sister (ft flower girl Sophie!)
Shelley wins the award for having the most annoying younger brother. However, this annoying brother has turned into a grateful sibling that admires his sister who runs sub 3 hour marathons, raises the best niece ever, and rivals his sourdough breads. Zack can't wait for Shelley to officially have the title of "best sister"
Bri Hills
Bridesmaid
Talking to Hailey every single day since 2006, Bri is the best friend and cousin all wrapped into one. Need someone to spot you at the gym or save your life? Bri is your gal
Giselle Sheeran
Bridesmaid
Ever heard of a friendship starting because they make fun of you? Case in point my friendship with Giselle. Not only does she look like a model, but she’s a loyal friend to a T. Need your living room redecorated or a lemon vinaigrette? Giselle is your person
Nilu Amali
Bridesmaid
From BHS Prom to living together in an apartment that had heat 25% of the time, Nilu will stick by your side through it all. She is your go to person if you need an excellent dinner recipe or a design for a cool new ski jacket
Allison Conley
Bridesmaid
The radar alarm sound on Apple phones is really Allison's theme song from which we learned by living with her during the Covid Pandemic. Different travel experiences have really bound us for life. Some instances include: an hour long bloody nose, drinking "filtered water" in Mexico City, Cougaritas at 10am, throwing granola bars in the ocean while sea kayaking, waking up at 4:30am to drive to Mt Rainer for a day, and sleeping in a 90 degree garage turned bedroom through Airbnb.
Cole Hodgson
Groomsman
Which arena did Zack and Cole get in the most trouble in: band, ski team, or Gonzaga dorms? The answer is all the above. From trouble makers to goodie two shoes, be prepared for Cole to be a standup groomsman on Sept 7.
Gus Goulet
Groomsman
You can thank Gus for making Zack stay in Portland post Wisconsin days. Although Taco Tuesday's, Sunriver trips, and beer club memberships can't all be "fully" remembered, what we can be certain of is this lifelong friendship. If you're on the fence of buying a Tesla, be sure to talk to Gus at cocktail hour
Matt Belesiu
Groomsman
These neighborhood buds can't jump on a trampoline like they used to but they can make engineering and cooking look like child's play. It's rare to find a friendship that has lasted a lifetime and even more rare to find a friend to teach you how to ski at 30 years old. You're bound for life after seeing someone double eject from skis coming off a chairlift.
Emma Goldsmith
Groomswoman
Emma has the honor of standing over with the bois. Zack and Emma met in band and bonded in Hebrew school. She was brave enough to be roomies with Zack and tolerates us as neighbors today. Don't even think about trying to out hike her because she dominated the Oregon AND Washington PCT. Give her a Twix bar or some HRD and you'll never meet a happier gal.
Peter Lee
Groomsman
The stars aligned pairing these two up as random roommates in the Gonzaga dorm rooms (CM45 baby!) Long distance friendship wasn't their thing so Peter was kind enough to move all the way to Portland to be back together with Zack. If you want to have a cup of coffee, go to the gym, and adjust your Fantasy League all before 6:30am be sure to hang out with Peter over our wedding weekend.
Josh White
Officiant
Watershed and Zags, is there anything better to bond over? This future attorney turned ordained minister can organize 20+ people for a Ski to Sea weekend and can golf a birdie game no problem. The Walla Walla heat won't bother this Palm Springs Groom. He'll be there ready with the tissues and a mantra that will be carried with you forever, No Bad Days!!
