Vanessa & Andrew
Wedding Party
Natalie Kahn
Maid of Honor
As Vanessa's older sister, Natalie has been by Vanessa's side since '93 and Vanessa and Andrew's wedding will be no different. Natalie and Vanessa have a shared love of the movie Matilda (you can do it, Bruce!), taco tours, and long phone calls about everything under the sun. Ask Natalie about her job as a children's theater director, her love of baking, or Vanessa's weird childhood habits.
Kevin Crespo
Best Man
After beginning their friendship when Andrew was in a wheelchair with a broken leg in high school, Kevin and Andrew have been getting into nonsense for well over a decade now. On many trips between Colorado and San Diego, where Kevin lives with his wife, they've had many ridiculous adventures, played lots of average basketball, secured many exciting bargains, and enjoyed quite a few Coors "Lattes". Ask Kevin about his epic worldwide adventures, where to find the best burritos in town, and Coconut Pete.
Alexandria Kang
Bridesmaid
Alexandria and Vanessa were neighbors growing up and though both their families have since moved, their connection lives on. Alexandria and Vanessa's families went on many trips together back in the day that included antics like car keys flushed down the toilet and live auditions for their own rendition of the Twilight movies. Through all of this "adversity" (and mostly fun) they remain great friends today. There's a special level of friendship and trust when you know the other person has really embarrassing photos of you that they lovingly choose not to show anyone else. Ask Alexandria about her fear of farm animals, her love for veggie sausage, or her expert crafting skills.
Tim Agee
Groomsman/Officiant
One of Andrew's college friends, Timbo will be officiating the ceremony and has known Andrew and Vanessa as a couple since the very beginning. Tim and Andrew honed their friendship on the basketball court and with coordinated Halloween costumes, as well as over Coors Lights and lawn games in more recent years. Ask Tim about Colorado Sports teams, pickleball tips, and how to set up a tent.
Ali Marchand
Bridesmaid
Ali and Vanessa have been friends since 8th grade and it shows. After school in 2011 you could find them dancing to One Direction or Cher Lloyd in Ali's room and taking photo booth photos on an old MacBook. They traveled to Spain their junior year and founded Boulder High's hiking club together. Currently, they're maintaining a long distance relationship over Facebook messenger and always look forward to being reunited. Ask Ali about living in Switzerland, her quest to find the best pastries in Zurich, or her sweet baby boy, Nico.
Nick Lubinski
Groomsman
Andrew's cousin, Nick and Andrew have been friends since childhood. A native of Wisconsin, Nick was a track and field All American, as well as an all star at ping pong and Super Mario at Grandma's house before he took his talents to the track. Nick and Andrew spent many days fishing, playing Nintendo and ping pong, and coming up with endless competitions during summer and Christmas visits to Wisconsin. Ask Nick about the Packers, fishing tips, and that infamous night at the Smiling Moose.
Brittany Gilbert
Bridesmaid
Brittany is Andrew's sister and Vanessa's good friend. From day one, Brittany has made Vanessa feel like family, so now it's time to make it official. Brittany and Vanessa have shared many memorable experiences together, including attending numerous country concerts, hosting girls' nights, and going on an annual family camping trip. Ask Brittany about the best book she's read lately or her best stories as a third grade teacher!
Scott Hawkins
Groomsman
A fast friend from studying abroad in Wales while in college, Scott and Andrew became friends on a different continent before continuing their friendship back in Denver and beyond. Now living in Charleston, SC, Scott is soon to be married and a business owner as well. Ask Scott about his family's famous "Hawkaritas", Andrew as a teammate and coworker, and Welsh academics.
Quincey Gilbert
Bridesmaid
The moment Quincey (Andrew's sister) and Vanessa met they spoke each other's language fluently and loudly. Vanessa and Quincey can usually be found requesting ridiculous songs from DJs, making every situation a party, complaining about being too hot, and lobbying hard to go to the Holiday Bar. Ask Quincey about her job as a PA in Minnesota or her two adorable dogs, Stanley and Lenny.
Max Robson
Groomsman
Max is Vanessa's brother and the youngest of the groomsmen. What he lacks in age, he makes up for in enthusiasm and style. Now a resident of California, Max is one of the few people who Andrew trusts to make a quality old fashioned. Max and Andrew's friendship has been built on a farm and in the mountains of Colorado, including hiking, river tubing, and tractor rides. Ask Max about music festivals, how to make the best old fashioned, or that one time Vanessa and Natalie dared him to eat a quarter cup of popcorn seasoning.
Zoe Kang
Flower Girl
Vanessa is Zoe's former babysitter and has known Zoe since she was two. As Zoe puts it, she had no concept of timing when she was little and would always ask Vanessa if she could be Vanessa's flower girl when she got married. Though this ask was made 15 years ago, Vanessa was excited to honor the promise she made on that fateful night of babysitting. Ask Zoe about the latest GenZ terminology or what it was like to have Vanessa as her babysitter.
