Skylar Hadley - Co-Maid of honor
Skylar and Caitlin have an interesting beginning to their friendship. They actually weren't incredibly fond of each when they first met freshman year of college but they slowly grew on each other. After living together and having their rooms right next to each other, they became the closest friends and had so many great times together. Skylar has been such an incredible friend for Caitlin throughout college and into post-college life.
Justin Paces - Best Man
Jahrran met his dad when he took his first breaths...lol. His dad has been his best friend since day 1. They have and still spend a lot of time lifting, being in sports, and simply laughing with each other. There are simply too many memories to choose from, but Jahrran will always cherish seeing his dad in the stands at all of his events. Rain, snow, heat, or it being show choir (lol) he knew he was going to be there in his corner rooting and supporting him. Jahrran will never forget being Justin's best man in his wedding and looks forward to his dad being in his.
Zoey Klein - Co-Maid of Honor
Zoey and Caitlin have been friends since the beginning of middle school. They literally grew up together. Caitlin basically lived at her house and did everything with Zoey from sleepovers, to trick or treating, to prom. Caitlin still remembers the many memories they have playing their Nintendo DS's and Zoey taking videos of Caitlin just being weird. Zoey is the sister she never had and is so thankful that she has someone in her life that has been with her through everything. They have been consistent friends for many years even when living in different states.
Isaac Dannehl - Groomsman
Isaac and Jahrran first me through Jahrran's brother, Michael, in middle school. Although they weren't great friends at first, they became very close their sophomore/junior years of high school. They've played many sports together and have traveled around the country together with their good friend, Ali. Jahrran and Isaac lived with each other throughout college and made it through college football together, despite their injuries. Jahrran does not consider Isaac a friend, but rather a brother. They both have overcome many challenges with the help of each other. The two now get to root for the Lakers as their favorite players, Luka and LeBron, play together.
Bailey Petit - Bridesmaid
Bailey and Caitlin also met freshman year of college through a Holdrege friend, Bailey’s now husband, Jett. Bailey and Caitlin were lucky enough to coach a youth volleyball team together and both learned their love for coaching. Caitlin loves getting to visit Bailey down in KC and do all of the fun creative things together.
Luke Ranck - Groomsman
Jahrran met Luke in 7th grade when Jahrran joined his travel baseball team. From the start, they were great friends. Over the years they enjoyed many laughs, but also helped each other through some hard times. Luke and Jahrran reunited their junior year of high school when Luke transferred to Ralston. Luke may think that Jahrran's favorite memory of them is winning state or senior year football, but it is really those Thursday night dinners that his mom, Shelly, would make them before their games. Jahrran and Luke's friendship goes beyond being just "friends" and rather brothers. Jahrran HIGHLY recommends that you ask Shelly for her Cilantro Lime Chicken recipe at the wedding.
Beth Piening - Bridesmaid
Beth is Caitlin's amazing sister-in-law but who needs to add those last 3 words, she is basically a sister. Beth has been such a positive person in Caitlin's life but also the rest of her families' lives. She loves getting to plan trips with the family and finding things to do when Caitlin comes to visit them in Florida. Caitlin has loved getting to spend time with Beth just the 2 of them while Logan is busy at work. If you are wanting to win at basically any card/board game, don't play Beth because she will most likely smoke you (lol).
Ali Ebada - Groomsman
Jahrran and Ali became close friends in their sophomore/junior years of high school. Ali is one of those people that you can't help but be happy when you are around him. There have been numerous times where our group of friends met up at Ali's house and spent the whole night laughing/having a good time. The countless self created memes and vacations will always be some of Jahrran's favorite things/experiences. One of Jahrran's favorite memories with Ali is getting to see him graduate undergrad from Emory University on Jahrran's 21st birthday.
Chloe Dinardo - Bridesmaid
Chloe was Caitlin's first friend in college. They literally met at move-in. I guess that was kind of inevitable since they were roommates freshman year. Chloe and Caitlin went to church together, watched movies together, explored Lincoln together, and literally did everything together. They made such an incredible connection that is just as strong today. Caitlin has been able to watch Chloe fall in love and start her own little family. Even though they live in different states, they still hold a special part of each other's hearts.
Michael Mackey - Groomsman
Like Josh, Michael and Jahrran met when they were 7-8 years old. Jahrran's mom married Michael's dad and the rest is history. They've enjoyed the years by playing/watching sports and being outside together, a lot of times lasting late into the night. Some of Jahrran's favorite memories with Michael are throwing him touchdowns in high school football.
Amanda Mathiasen - Bridesmaid
Amanda has been an incredible friend for Caitlin towards the end of college and into work-life. Their friendship started while in college while hanging out with a group of friends but has continued through coffee shop catch-ups and beautiful walks getting to talk about life. Amanda has been such a solid friend for Caitlin while living in Omaha.
Josh Mackey - Groomsman
Like Michael, Josh and Jahrran met when they were both 6-7 years old. Jahrran's mom married Josh's dad and the rest is history. They've enjoyed the years playing sports and video games together. Some of Jahrran's favorite memories with Josh are playing WWE/RockBand on Xbox and senior night for high school football.
Maddie Mosbauer - Bridemaid
Maddie and Caitlin are true camp friends. After Caitlin's sophomore year of college, she went to work at a Christian sports camp called Kanakuk and there she met a crazy, goofy, camera loving girl named Maddie. They got to goof off together while getting to teach kids about Jesus. They literally got to dance in the rain listening to so many throwbacks together. Leaving camp didn't stop their friendship and to this day, they have continued to be there for each other.
Logan Piening - Groomsman
Jahrran met Logan a few months after he started dating Logan's sister, Caitlin. Logan has a WAY cooler job than Jahrran and lives in Florida, so this has limited the amount of times that he has been able to hang out with him. Despite this, they both got to spend the holidays, a cruise to Mexico, and a week long vacation together. Jahrran has really enjoyed his times with Logan, even if it means getting beat in Pickleball or board games. Jahrran's favorite memory with Logan is the heated Phase 10 game with the family during Christmas.
