Lindsey & Brittan

December 9, 2017 • Washington, DC
Tara Melody-Betrix - Matron of Honor
Lindsey first met Tara when she made her debut on earth, after months of much anticipation and failed attempts at persuading their parents to name her "Gargamel." Since then, they have been deeply involved in each others' lives, usually to the point of disruption, and Tara has finally learned that her older sister knows a few things. Tara is bold and hilarious, and a lover of oregano and frozen waffles and, most importantly, wet willies. It was only fairly recently that Lindsey and Tara accepted that they can no longer share Lindsey's bed every Christmas Eve, but they find comfort in teaching Gannon, Tara's son, that "X gonna give it to ya" even if he's scared of Tara's DMX voice.
Chris Tudor - Best Man
Brandon Specht - Groomsman
Ashley Pierce-Wilson - Bridesmaid
Ashley and Lindsey met in high school journalism class, which may have been the only class Ashley ever attended (generous description). They bonded over a love of good writing and mockery, and became best friends over cheese fries, beer, Javier, and being "beefs". They stayed close during college and art school, spending breaks riding in Cosa Rosa and the Corolla, listening to too-loud rap, twiddling, and most likely cat-calling. Ashley and Lindsey haven't lived in the same place in 10 years, as Ashley and her husband move with the Navy, but they always find time to catch up, even if that includes few words and mostly snorts. Ashley currently lives in the Puget Sound with "stubble", her husband Ian (or Liam Smith), and animals.
Jamie Pernal - Bridesmaid
Jamal "Mixed Company" Pernal and Lindsey met in HS AP English class with "Pants of Doom" and shared a common disdain for bad Scottish accents. Jamie is the smartest blonde on earth, with the grace and balance of a newborn giraffe. Despite her attempts to destroy Lindsey's kitchen appliances, Jamie is the best listener and one of the most reliable people on earth. She'll chase down a fireman playing bagpipes in a kilt to an upstairs bar dance party any day. She just became a newly minted nurse after years of hard work, and Lindsey couldn't be more proud to call her a dear friend. Jamie currently lives with her man-giant, Cory, in NJ with some weird cats.
Patrick Gerhardt - Groomsman
Amy Barlok - Bridesmaid
Amy and Lindsey met through a mutual friend in HS when they shared a hotel room during their senior trip to Disney World. Amy and Lindsey were the only sane people in the room, and won't ever forget the proper speed and force to most effectively launch a granola bar at a window to obtain a most satisfying "THUNK." After HS, Amy left for Tennessee for school to become a "Vol", which Lindsey was convinced for a while was a creepy rodent and the worst mascot ever. They stayed close, spending summers chasing Eli on the Island, having Chinese Fire Drills on the Blvd, and finding new homes for orange cones. Amy is getting married in October 2017 in Florida, where she currently lives with her toddler and fiance, Robby.
Jon Walter - Groomsman
Lau Montes-Yager - Bridesmaid
Lau "Butters" Montes and Lindsey met during their first year of law school and instantly became close friends. They bonded over a love of dancing, naps, Butters from South Park, and gelato dates. Lau ditched Lindsey during 2L to go back to Boston, but visited frequently and is, to this day, the best and most responsible Barrister's Ball date ever. There is no one Lindsey would rather snuggle on a loveseat during a tupperware party with while everyone else goes out. Lau currently lives in her hometown of San Juan, Puerto Rico, with her husband Mike and their two cute labs, and is kicking major butt as an Assistant US Attorney chasing drugs across the hemisphere.
