Anna & Corbin
Wedding Party
Mallory Burns
Maid of Honor
Sister of the bride, MOH, and number one fan of the Browns, Buckeyes, and Anna (in that order). Mallory and Anna have a lot of the same interests such as vacationing in Anguilla, shopping, loving on their dogs, and laughing at Corbin’s dance moves.
Ryan Leslie
Best Man
Decades of friendship, from growing up on the streets of Worthington to neighbors in college. The Scottie Pippen and Micheal Jordan of Worthington youth sports. The only two members of the Ohio State Razor Scooter Club. You can’t find a better Blue Jackets fan, Mario kart player, or best man around.
Chelsea Amato
Bridesmaid
Corbin learned early on that Chelsea and Anna are a package deal; they have worked, traveled, and lived together. Chelsea is notoriously famous for turning happy hours into after hours, buying the shots that you never want, and always reminding you that a trip to El Vaquero is a great idea. Let’s not forget how good of a friend she has been to the bride as Chelsea had to share her cellphone with Anna until 10th grade. A proud OU alum, make sure you kiss the bricks in Athens for her the next time you are there.
Cody Barnhart
Groomsman
Expect the unexpected. Currently residing in our nations capital helping families, businesses, and individuals achieve financial goals. With his strong interest in alternative assets, equity investments, and comprehensive financial planning, he is destined to be on the cover of Forbes magazine in the near future. All of this is due to the countless, long hours of studying xbox and beersbie Corbin and Cody achieved together in college.
Emily Houghton
Bridesmaid
Emily might not have invented the popular dance move “the worm” but she did perfect it. Some would say Emily is the favorite child of the Burns family despite the fact she is not actually related. After meeting in a study abroad program in Luxembourg, Anna and Emily continued their worldly adventures to England, Switzerland, Sweden, Norway, Germany, Denmark, Croatia, Ireland, Poland, Slovenia, Scotland, Aruba, Belgium, Czech Republic, Austria, the Netherlands, and of course…America. Emily rule #56, do not let her request American Pie at the wedding.
Wes Townsend
Groomsman
Longtime roommate, coworker, and volleyball teammate (if he would allow Corbin on the team). Corbin owes a lot to Wes, who taught him how to do laundry and introduced him to country music. It’s good to see he’s moved on to parenting an actual child with equal success.
Carly Shaw
Bridesmaid
Downtown Delaware born and raised, hanging out with Anna most of her days. They were chillin’ out, maxin’, relaxin’ all cool, sittin’ at the Shaw Shack after school. As they got older not much changed, they might both be getting married this year but remain in the same gang. Not Anna’s tallest friend but she’s one of the longest, they always have the best time together and that’s just being honest.
Corey Byard
Groomsman
From the fields of Ohio to the Desert of Arizona, no one has met Corey Byard without him becoming their favorite person. His only fault being his sports fandom. The King of Crab Island, an even better friend than he is dresser.
Taylor Sieve
Bridesmaid
Hobbies include yoga, long walks on the beach, and math. Proudly one of Dempsey’s top five favorite people, a much higher honor than being named one of Anna’s bridesmaids. Anna loved living with Taylor for multiple reasons including being able to steal clothes from her closet all the time. A friendship filled with multiple adventures and with many more to come (be sure to ask about Nicaragua).
Anthony Korpieski
Groomsman
A remarkable combination of gridiron and country club. Anthony isn’t only known for his sports accomplishments. He’s an excellent cook when it comes to eggs, chocolate chip cookies, and protein shakes. If you ever need reality tv show recommendations he’s the guy to call.
Sammie Sjogreen
Bridesmaid
Sammie has moved from Ohio to Nicaragua to Tanzania to Seattle and has friends all over the globe. You might know her for her TikTok choreographing skills, but Sammie also spends her time giving back and volunteering in some of the coolest places in the world. There are not too many other people that Anna has done SUP yoga with off the coast of Little Corn Island (*insert Taylor*) and she can’t wait for their next visit to Happy Hut.
Grant Ison
Groomsman
Moderately respected lawyer and fantasy football commissioner. But more importantly a better marriage officiant (ours) and friend. Grant also makes the best margarita in the continental United States.
Alli Schulman
Bridesmaid
Rumor has it she overnighted a beer bong to the bachelorette party? Besides being the life of the party, Alli has many more talents and real life accomplishments (riding a bike is not one). Not short on energy or sociability, Alli instantly became Corbin’s “pool chicken” teammate for life.
Mike Fee
Groomsman
Sometimes you have to go to craigslist to find roommates / friends and sometimes it works out. The once Big Ten Network wrestling legend, Mike will be available at the wedding for autographs and pictures. You can always count on Mike to provide the entertainment.
Dani Kaufman
Bridesmaid
Recently broke Forrest Gump’s record for the most miles ran in a lifetime. Anna and Dani have lots of Green Beer Day experiences together from college at Miami to visiting Dani in Chicago for Saint Patrick’s Day (unanimous decision that they preferred Miami’s). Anna’s very glad the Windy City blew Dani back to Columbus where you might run into her at a dog park or at the new Crew stadium.
Grant Dupont
Groomsman
Collector of Crocs, foreign cars, and fantasy football championships. Once destined for a professional basketball career, his plans derailed and Grant ended up working with Corbin. He quickly became the best work friend you could ever ask for. Nowadays, Grant spends his time serving as the neighborhood cat walker and volunteering at the Jewish Community Center.
Christine Curry
Bridesmaid
Corbin’s sister (not Steph Curry’s). With uncharacteristically similar tattoos, love for dogs, and proposals that happened within the same week. Anna is lucky to have Chrissy as her future sister-in-law and soundboard for complaining about living with Corbin.
Cors Burns
Groomsman
Anna’s brother, who couldn’t be happier about becoming “the other Cor”. Hobbies include, helping them move, painting, and looking for Corbin’s golf ball.
Caroline Welker
Bridesmaid
Caroline touts an impressive resume consisting of collegiate athlete, survivor of growing up without cable, Dance Dance Revolution semi pro, and most importantly the bride's longest friend. They conquered Sunday school and senior tag together and made a habit of attending midnight showings of Harry Potter.
Kees Burns
Groomsman
Anna’s brother, and we are told the only person who is a better arguer than she is. This impressive skill has brought him to Switzerland where you can find him lawyering, cigar-ing, and preparing for their next visit.
Dempsey Burns-Steinhaus
Groomsman
Dempsey has been raised by Corbin and Anna since he was 6 weeks old. Loves whatever you are eating, digging, and is not afraid to speak up on conference calls...his training is a work in progress. “The best birthday gift ever received”- Anna
