Kristen & Robert

September 16, 2022 • Columbus, OH

Wedding Party

Trisha Elliott
Trisha Elliott - Matron of Honor
While Kristen and Trisha are biologically cousins, Kristen has always viewed Trisha as her big sister. Kristen was a flower girl in Trisha's wedding and it is only fitting that Trisha is the Matron of Honor at Kristen's!
Nick Ratliff
Nick Ratliff - Best Man
Rob has known this man for an insane percentage of his life. Of all the dude bros that Rob has met, this is the best one. Did you know he's banned from all future Formula 1 race events? I totally made that up, he's way too much of a diehard Nascar superfan to watch some Europens race. There's no Jeff Gordan in Italy. Have Italians even heard a supercharged Hemi? I don't even know if that's a real thing. Nick would know though.
Cara Decknadel
Cara Decknadel - Maid of Honor
Meet Mason Ohio's second greatest Pan Flute artist alive Cara Decknapel, Deckdradel, Dectember... Cara D. Kristen and Cara met back in high school when Kristen helped her with pre-calc. Rob met Cara at a Bob Evans. That doesn't matter too much, but it was significant enough to waste your time.
Tyler Longworth
Tyler Longworth - Groomsman
His legal name might be Tyler Longworth, but we "affectionately" call him Tank Longhorn. This is one Rob's bestest buddies from High School. His wife is Bridesmaid Alyssa Longworth (Longhorn). Just keep the grape-flavored... I mean purple crayons away from him.
Annmarie "Father" Bedolla
Annmarie "Father" Bedolla - Officiant & Bridesmaid
This is Annmarie "Yas kuwheen, More whiteclaw 4 ya gurl" Bedolla. Someone (not me) decided we should give her more power and speaking time in the wedding than she deserves. Kristen and Marianne were coworkers at VPL bonding over mutual dissatisfaction with the company. Annmarie went to find herself in Florida as sane people do.
Brent Daugherty
Brent Daugherty - Groomsman
Yes, he plays the guitar. No, he's not playing guitar at the wedding. Yes, Rob is sad about that. Rob and Brent became superb friends just a few years ago and they found a common ground of both being stupid idiots together. Fun fact if you ever get Brent on the phone, he will talk for an hour+. If you try to text him, he'll get back to you in 4-6 business weeks.
Kate Namola
Kate Namola - Bridesmaid
Kate and Kristen met in calculus class at OSU. Who said math never leads to friendship? Plus Kate and Kristen share a mutual love of making food, criticizing restaurants, and reminding Rob he is a slacker when it comes to his food skills. Too bad they will never be able to measure up to the speed at which Rob eats.
Alyssa Longworth
Alyssa Longworth - Bridesmaid
While Alyssa holds the title of Bridesmaid, she also is the unofficial hype woman of the groom. Always saying nice things about Rob that he honestly doesn't deserve. Wife of groomsman Tyler Longworth and great friend to both Rob and Kristen, Rob is still sour he wasn't a bridesmaid in Alyssa's wedding.
Karlie Elliott
Karlie Elliott - Flower Girl
Meet Karlie "Karl" Elliot. Cousin Once Removed by legal definition, niece in every way that counts. Rob tries to convince her that he's going to steal her favorite cat and take him home. Karlie is not having any of that mess.
Luke McMaster
Luke McMaster - Ring Bearer
Has science gone too far with this Dingo-Kangaroo hybrid? Ask not these questions and instead ask how they managed to bio-engineer the softest doggo you ever did pet.
