Sadie and I have been friends since we were old enough to run to each others houses. There’s not a childhood memory I can think of that Sadie isn’t in, from Pokémon monopoly to capture the flag in the back yard.  I’m honored to call Sadie a best friend and an aunt to my kids. I’m excited to stand beside her as she marries her best friend!

Hi I’m Conor! I am Austin’s older brother and best man. I currently live in Chicago with my girlfriend Emily. I am honored to stand by Austin’s side as he joins Sadie on their exciting new journey. Can’t wait to celebrate!

Sadie and I grew up together and spent countless hours on the soccer field, creating memories that turned into a lifelong friendship. These days, I stay busy with my wonderful husband and our two amazing kids. I'm so honored to stand by Sadie’s side as she starts this next chapter!

I’m the groom’s younger brother and proud to stand by his side on such an important day. I’m about to begin student teaching this fall, pursuing a career in special education. I’m excited to celebrate this new chapter in Austin and Sadie's lives!

Big thanks to the team-building exercise that locked us in an escape room 4 years ago and told us to “collaborate under pressure”... nothing says friendship like mild panic and forced cooperation 😂 Since that night, Sadie went from being a co-worker to a best friend I couldn’t imagine my life without. We’ve shared endless laughs, deep heart-to-hearts, escape rooms (this time by choice), intense game nights where we let Austin win, and an alarming number of Fireball shots (I plead the fifth on who the instigator is on that one). Sadie is the type of friend who shows up, lifts you up, and reminds you who you are. I’m honored and SO EXCITED to stand by her side as she and Austin tie the knot in October!!

Hi, I’m Patrick, I’m the youngest of the 4 brothers. I work at Jewel and enjoy going to movies and participating in Special Olympics. I am excited for Austin and Sadie’s wedding and am so happy that Austin found Sadie.

Hi, I’m Nora! I recently graduated from Loyola University Chicago. I live in the suburbs of Chicago, but hope to move to Washington D.C. soon. I met Sadie six years ago, and have been looking forward to this wedding ever since! So excited to celebrate with everyone on the big day!

Hello I’m Jack! Even though we are cousins, I consider Austin the closest thing I have to a brother. I am honored to stand with him for the big day! I can’t wait to watch Austin and Sadie start their lives together and hit the dance floor!

Emily is the girlfriend of Austin’s brother, Conor. Emily first met Sadie on a Lyons family trip to North Carolina in 2019. Over the past six years, she and Sadie have loved spending time together—usually with a glass of wine in hand and no shortage of great conversation. Emily is so excited to celebrate Sadie and Austin and feels honored to be part of their special day.

Hi, Im Charlie! I'm Sadie's brother and Austin's soon to be brother in law. I love taking my dog on adventures and going fishing. I'm excited to be a part of their big day as they start this next step in their lives together.
