Wedding Party

Emily Griffin
Emily Griffin - Matron of Honor
I have had the pleasure of being besties, practically sisters, with Ava since we were in Little Flowers together at Our Lady of the Greenwood. Ava has always been there when I’ve needed advice, a friend to carry my trials with, or wanted to laugh over silly random things that only we could understand. I’m so excited and honored to be her matron of honor, and I have always been so inspired by the bride to be and her passion and work that she puts into the things she loves - most beautifully her love for Connor and her love for God. (Ps the hottie in the photo is my husband)
Timothy Hosford
Timothy Hosford - Best Man
His name is Timothy Hosford, amateur copywrite, leathersmith, fantasy cartographer and devoted Catholic husband. Roommates and best friends in college, Timothy and Connor would steel themselves in endless combat, often imaginary and with myriads of dramatic deaths. Thrilled to soon call Connor his real-life brother, excitement brims in his heart to see these two embark on the quest of a lifetime together.
Ella Fricker
Ella Fricker - Bridesmaid
Fricker? I barely know her. Ella met Ava because she likes Ketchup and Jesus and can usually be found climbing things and reading (not at the same time).
Tony Fleming
Tony Fleming - Groomsman
Connor and I have many titles for each other- friends, teammates, brothers-in-Christ, and most recently Groomsmen for each other as we marry the love of our lives- in the same month! I first met Connor on the Ultimate Frisbee field and quickly knew this guy would be a sincere friend. My love of playing games, spending quality time with friends, and following Jesus were all matched by Connor and we push each other to be our best selves. From watching Connor first crush on Ava, to being over the moon after their first date, I’m honored and blessed to stand by Connor’s side as he marries his bride, Ava.
Bridget Parra
Bridget Parra - Bridesmaid
Matthews born and raised but now a proud Parra. I am a wife and mama striving for heaven. My love languages are quality time, spontaneous singing, and breakfast food. One of my proudest achievements is being the favorite sister/future sister in law of Connor and Ava.
Tommy Matthews
Tommy Matthews - Groomsman
I’m Connor’s bigger younger brother. I’m an identical twin who loves Jesus, music, Lord of the Rings, reading, and playing sports especially basketball. I’m a die-hard Colts and Pacers fan rain or shine. If you are reading this then hopefully you are going to be at the big day so see you there!
Hebby Caito
Hebby Caito - Bridesmaid
Hey! My name is Cecilia (Hebby), Ava and I met freshman year of college but have apparently known each other our entire lives! Thanks to 1 year old Ava's pink shoes!I'm so excited for Ava and Connor!
Kyle McCreary
Kyle McCreary - Groomsman
Who would have thunk that meeting Connor two weeks before college would come full circle to celebrating the second best moment of his life? Me. I did indeed foresee this. Of course, Connor meeting me was the best moment of his life. It's only right to be there for the second best moment of his life - you are very welcome, Ava...chivalry is not dead. With this, Connor and I are ecstatic to have invited you into our rela-, I mean friendship, and all of the shenanigans that follow. Oh yeah, and you're a pretty alright NEC co-lead, too :) To the Matthews 🥂
Sophie Hosford
Sophie Hosford - Bridesmaid
Hi all! I'm Sophie, Ava's big sister, previous roommate, partner in crime, etcetera etcetera. I love to go hiking, read books, and especially to sing! And my husband and I love to dance! I am so excited and so honored to be part of Ava and Connor's special day!
Dan Campbell
Dan Campbell - Groomsman
I’m Daniel and I have had the pleasure of knowing Connor since we were freshman in college. Through ultimate frisbee, camping trips, and rooming with Connor, I have gotten to see and appreciate how great of a guy he is. I could not be happier for him and Ava as they enter this new chapter together in their lives.
Julia McNamee
Julia McNamee - Bridesmaid
Hi! I met Ava through theatre at Marian and we quickly became the “dynamic duo” of the department (especially after all of our adventures in England). She’s the SM to my ASM, the small to my tall, and the best friend anyone could ask for. I’m so excited to be here and I can’t wait to watch Ava and Connor enter into the Sacrament of Marriage!
Johnny Matthews
Johnny Matthews - Groomsman
I would like to think that out of all Connor’s siblings I definitely stand out! And that’s not just because I’m the tallest. Connor has always been a role model for me (he is my confirmation sponsor after all) and I am so happy that he found Ava! Me and Ava go WAY WAY WAY back to about two years ago when she told me that she and Connor were engaged… well the first time anyway! I used to think that once Connor got married I would lose a brother but Ive come to realize that I will be gaining another sister! Welcome to the family Ava! I’m Super excited for you guys, and honored to be part of your big day Here’s to many years of happiness!🍻
Kate Weidner
Kate Weidner - Bridesmaid
I may be Connor’s smallest sibling, but I believe my love for him and Ava more than make up for my lack of stature. As a young wife and mother, you can often find me tending to the needs of my three little women, reading, baking or consuming copious amounts of tea. Ava and I first bonded over our love of wearing dresses and all things British - Soon we will also share the joy of both being June brides! Cheers to the simple things in life.
Jack Flinsbaugh
Jack Flinsbaugh - Groomsman
A famous musician you’ve probably never heard of. Single… taking applications. If it wasn’t for Connor, I wouldn’t be the same man I am today and if it wasn’t for Ava, I would have never passed Business Statistics.
