Wedding Party

Gabrielle Gosselin

Maid of Honor

Jess doesn't remember the exact details of how she and Gabrielle met at work, but she does know it was right after Jessica joined the CrossFit cult and couldn't stop talking about it. A coworker told her that she needed to talk to Gabrielle in IT. Jess is pretty sure she just yelled at G in the hallway, "Hey, do you do CrossFit?" and the rest is history. From hanging out at The Whig, going to the Free Times Halloween Party, Game Changers and pork rinds, the Charleston trip with the 90's bar crawl :-), hospitals, late night or early texts, and Murph...G has been a constant in Jess's Columbia life and she cannot thank Gabrielle enough for putting up with her.


Christopher Duzan

Best Man

Christopher has known Tim his entire life (since he is Tim's little brother). Fortunately they both enjoyed many of the same things growing up since they spent so much time together. Some of Tim's favorite memories have Christopher there, like the annual road trips to Minnesota, going to Germany to visit another one of Tim's groomsmen Tyll, and discussions of movies and videogames. They played varsity soccer at BCHS together and even both went to USC. They've traveled all over the US together and Tim was also Christopher's best man at his wedding.

Ashley Wilson

Bridesmaid

Jess is still mad at Tim for not introducing her to Ashley sooner. Ashley and Tim met while they were both working at World of Beer. The two ladies were finally able to meet in October of 2020 at a Major Lazer show in Charlotte. She welcomed Jess into the group with open arms. Ashley is a wonderful cat mom and an even better friend. She is one of the most generous, fun-loving, and considerate people that Jess has ever met. She is married to Tim's best friend, Rob (also a groomsman). Ashley also does not like lettuce on her tacos, just like Jess (which is a very important thing)!


Rob Wilson

Groomsman

Rob and Tim met in high school where they would occasionally get into trouble in their English class. In college, they were in the same fraternity at USC and were roommates so got into plenty of shenanigans before graduating. They've traveled together to New York to visit Devin (another of Tim's groomsmen), Gatlinburg for Mountain Weekend, and even Miami for a Heat-Lakers game. Before Rob left for the army, he and Tim spent many nights at WOB where Tim introduced Rob to his future wife Ashley, one of Jessica's bridesmaids.

Leah Bartys

Bridesmaid

Leah was the first coworker that Jess really hit it off with at the library. She has been Jessica's go-to person, in Columbia, since 2014. Favorite memories consist of constantly discussing food, to bonfires in Leah's backyard, every single library renovation (including warehouse trips) and tattoos on their lunch break. She is truly one of a kind!


Devin Caulk

Groomsman

Devin and Tim met in 2nd grade playing basketball together. Devin started going to the same school in 5th grade and they were best friends from then on. Tim would keep Devin from doing anything too crazy or dangerous and Devin would make sure Tim did do something crazy or dangerous once in a while. They have done everything from working on Devin's Eagle Scout project in high school and pledging the same fraternity, to seeing the Rolling Stones in Jacksonville and flying to Red Rocks for Tim's 30th birthday.

Jillian Adams

Bridesmaid

Jess had always wanted a little sister. So much so that she would occasionally dress her little brother Johnathan up as one. In 1998, she finally got her wish. Jill has a wicked sense of humor. She might rival Jess's dad in music trivia. Jill would have been right at home in England in the 1960's. To be honest, she is probably Lillian's most favorite person in the whole world. Jess is honored to have her as a sister and a bridesmaid.


Tyll Weyer

Groomsman

Tim met Tyll when he came to live with Tim's family in a student exchange program in the fall of 2007. He became an honorary Duzan (even marrying an older woman like Tim, Christopher and Steve) and making the annual Christmas trip to Minnesota. Tyll has come to the US to visit several times and Tim has visited Tyll right after high school, while he was studying abroad in Spain, while he was working in England, and when Tyll got married.

Lillian Bingham

Flower Girl

Jess's beautiful daughter who loves Johnny Depp, Robin Williams, Roald Dahl, and cats. Her favorite colors (currently) are black, white, gray, and purple. She wants to be Lydia Deetz when she grows up. She loves The Beatles and David Bowie. If you have any questions about Mr. Beast, please ask her, she can tell you anything. She is a miniature version of Jessica's sister, Jillian. Tim and Jess love her more than anything!


Ellie Adams

Flower Girl

Ellie is Jessica's niece. She loves Peppa Pig and Sesame Street. She is the happiest when she is outside and can "run, run, run."

Barry Oswald

Celebrant

Tim was introduced to Barry around 2014 when they were trying to start a business selling energy drinks. Barry was a pastor for many years and Tim really enjoyed the deep, philosophical conversations they would have together over drinks. He would continue hanging out with Barry over the years discussing anything from movies to the origin of the cosmos. After Jess and Tim started dating and he found out she had studied religion in college, he knew she would enjoy meeting and talking to Barry. They hit it off and since then, the three of them enjoy getting together, sipping whiskey, and talking about the important, and not so important things, in life.
