Kristine and Kristin met when Kristin came to CA to visit Kristine's husband David in 2010. Over the last 14 years their friendship has grown to to be more family then friends. Countless nights of sipping wine, telling stories, and celebrating holidays far from home together. Listening to Kristine's gorgeous singing accompanied by David's guitar are the cornerstone of some of Kristin's best memories in the Bay. Kristin & Brian are so honored for her to officiate their wedding.

David has been dear friend of Kristin's for over two decades after meeting as shipmates on the Schooner Liberty Clipper back in 2002 in Boston; surviving storms and saving each others lives. Keeping in touch for over 15 years while Kristin moved around the country and David around the world, David was the only friend she had moving to the Bay in 2015 and one of her dearest friends to this day. He is the brother she never asked for, but couldn't live without who will grace us with his Roma style guitar throughout the ceremony, setting Kristin at ease as he has done for decades with his music.

Kristin's Best Dog Friend and the goodest boy ever! Battling daily for alpha male status with Brian, he has reluctantly agreed to be the ring bearer and do his best to be a good boy at the wedding.

Danielle and Kristin met in 2020 through David & Kristine, whom she was neighbors at the time with on the Sausalito House Boats. Their friendship grew through many nights of sitting on the dock sipping wine, chatting, and listening to Davey serenade his neighbors with his guitar. This was just the beginning of Danielle becoming Kristin's dear friend and favorite partner in crime, especially for girls nights out, like the one where they walked in to Angelino's and sat down next to Brian and his best man Sean and you know how that story ends.

Jordana was the first friend Kristin made out in the wild of San Francisco and from the minute they met, Kristin knew that they would be friends for the long haul. There are more beautiful memories between these two then can be expressed in one paragraph. From dinner parties and late night karaoke to paddle up concerts, hiking and enjoying the arts together, these two share more laughter and tears, mostly happy and caused by laughing than can be counted.

Megan and Kristin met back in their Freshman years of college. From fast friends, to college roommates, to lifelong besties, they have more stories and adventures under their belts then could possibly be listed here, nor would either of them likely want them to be, and luckily as there was no social media or camera phones back then, so little evidence is available anyway. Megan and Kristin have kept their friendship strong, despite living on opposite sides of the world. Megan is flying in from Dubai, where she has lived with her husband and beautiful children for more then a decade. Brian and Kristin are so thrilled she was able to make the long journey to celebrate their special day.

For 25 years, Dan and Brian have been been thick as thieves. From the start of their friendship as an award winning design/copywriter duo in the heydays of digital advertising, to sitting side-by-side at final tables in poker tournaments across Reno and Las Vegas, through decades enjoying the darkened booths in some of San Francisco's best steak houses. There is no conversation that these two have that doesn't quickly devolve into chaos and uncontrollable laughter. Not to mention the unique way they are always interested in the most obscure things at the exact same moment in time. There is a reason why Dan is Brian's Best man... because Dan is the Man.

Sean introduced Brian and Kristin at the Sausalito Cruising Club we are all members at– and for that we will always be grateful. What started out as a working friendship at an Ad Agency in San Francisco, quickly became a brotherhood. After realizing they both lived in Sausalito, are obsessed with New Mexico Green Chile (IYKYK), and love creating advertising commercials together, Brian and Sean's friendship continues to get stronger as they discover more odd, random, and sometimes mind-blowing similarities between themselves. We couldn’t be happier to have Sean stand by Brian on our big day. We at least know the reception photos will be exciting.

Chris and Kristin met in Ireland in 2020 on a work trip for Airbnb. What began as a great work friendship deepened to becoming dear friends as they navigated the challenges of the rest of that year. Sidekicks for many adventures including Kristin's first trips to Lake Tahoe and Yosemite, and surviving a period as roommates during covid times. Chris and Brian became fast friends and the three of them continue to add to their list of adventures.

Vez and Kristin met working at HotelTonight (HT) in 2017 and worked together for years, including moving to Airbnb together in 2019. Kristin, Vez and their HT crew always stuck together, from late nights at the HT bar (there was a full bar IN the office), gathering for french toast Friday's at Airbnb, to starting a virtual happy hour after moving to remote work, a call that they kept up every Thursday for over a year, long after they all had moved on to new jobs, solidifying their friendship as much more then great colleagues, but as dear friends.
