Wedding Party

Brittanie Thompson

Maid of Honor

Brittanie met Elise in November 2020 during the biggest transition of Brittanie’s life. She didn’t know then, but Elise would become her pillar of wisdom, tough talk, friendship, and adventure. She hopes everyone can find an Elise, but Jamie is one lucky guy for sharing hers.

Nick Stahl

Best Man

Nick and Jamie became best friends after high school, and have stayed great friends through being coworkers and roommates. He’s thrilled Jamie has finally found someone that’s willing put up with him day in and day out.

Corina Thomas

Matron of Honor

Corina is *obviously* Elise's favorite sister and knows all her dark childhood secrets. It brings her a lot of joy to see how happy Elise is with Jamie.

Josh George

Groomsman

Josh is Jamie’s big brother! You could say they’ve known each other for a while! Josh is so proud that Jamie trusted and waited for God to give him the woman of his dreams, and he did that tenfold.

Sarah Brazil

Bridesmaid

Sarah met Elise at age 5, and was immediately not fond of her because she won a spelling bee. Through forced hangouts, they became the best of friends and made many memories, creating movies and spending every summer making mischief. Sarah and Elise remained close despite multiple cross-state/country moves and they always found a bit of home in each other when brought back together. Sarah is so excited Elise found her person and can’t wait to celebrate with them this fall!

Mike Varadi

Groomsman

Mike met Jamie in elementary school, and it started a great friendship. They had some common friends in high school and started to hang out more and more. They both had the same fierce competitive attitude and similar personal beliefs. As other friends drifted apart they became even closer due to their shared values. Neither of them will ever admit they’re wrong! But they can always laugh about it in the end, which is why they have remained such great friends.

Jenna Stahl

Bridesmaid

Jenna enjoyed being the third wheel on Jamie and Nick’s weekly dates and loved trying to keep up with the sports talk and the Diet Coke refills. She bonded quickly with Elise over two of her favorite things, travel and coffee. She feels blessed to have watched Jamie and Elise’s love grow and is beyond excited for the memories to come.

Phil Thoma

Groomsman

Phil has been lucky enough to call Jamie a teammate, neighbor and best friend ever since the days where they’d knock on each other’s doors, asking if the other “wants to play.” There is no doubt in his mind that Jamie is going to be an amazing husband, father, and whatever else he sets out to be. Cheers to Jamie and Elise!

Chloe Ames

Bridesmaid

Elise and Chloe’s friendship began during their freshman year of college, all because of a tweet. As roommates they shared endless late night drives and deep conversations while bonding over their mutual love for cats, travel, and delicious cups of tea. Although Chloe moved back to Seattle shortly after, their friendship has remained steadfast all through the years. As the “mom friend”, Chloe is so very proud and excited for Elise and Jamie— and can’t wait to celebrate them soon!

Brandon Taylor

Groomsman

Brandon and Jamie have known each other since sophomore year of high school. Brandon is inarguably Jamie’s cutest friend. You should consider yourself lucky that he will grace this wedding with his presence.

Bethany Seaton

Bridesmaid

Bethany is Jamie’s favorite little sister and she loves seeing how happy Elise makes him. She is excited to gain another sister and welcome Elise into the family.

Seth Seaton

Groomsman

Seth and Jamie met in little league baseball but became friends once he started dating Jamie’s little sister. Since then they are now brother-in-laws, coworkers, and have a tendency to coach together.

Jeanette Banke

Bridesmaid

Ezra Wright

Groomsman

Ezra has known Jamie since he was 10 and barely spoke English. Jamie was his first friend and he is super excited for both Jamie and Elise!

Audrey Bernards

Bridesmaid

Audrey is Elise's younger sister and is married to Elise's other best friend, Jacob. Audrey first met Jamie at a family Christmas and told Jacob she knew right away they would get married.

Reagan Clark

Groomsman

Reagan has known Elise his whole life. She is his second oldest sister. He met Jamie for the first time at a family dinner, and though he’s only known him a short time, Reagan is very fond of him. They bonded on a guys’ road trip to California.
