Wedding Party

Karagan Sheeser

Maid of Honor

Karagan is Kaleigh's younger sister and Maid of Honor. Kaleigh spent 7 birthday wishes hoping for a sister only to have to share a room with her for the following 7 years... They became inseparable at every life stage as Kaleigh watched Dora with Kara and Kara listened to all of Kaleigh's high school drama. They are known for their deeps talks and great singing voices. Watch for them to start karaoke on the wedding night and request only Taylor Swift (TV) to be played!

Max Herzog

Best Man

Max is Sam’s brother and is the best man in our wedding! When they were younger Sam and Max would do everything together. Whether it was real sports or ones they made up when they were bored, they knew how to keep themselves busy. That is until Max would eventually get angry and go inside and then have their Dad yell for Sam to come inside too… Max has followed Sam to every school. They went to the same college and even had a class together before Sam graduated! Sam couldn’t be happier to have his favorite brother by his side!

Karin Sheeser

Maid of Honor

Karin is Kaleigh's youngest sister and Maid of Honor. Karin has been known to be the only sibling to pick up all of Kaleigh's random phone calls usually leading to running errands or going for a drive together. Because of this, they can be seen together 90% of the time blasting Taylor Swift and singing every word. Look out for the duo on the dancefloor and beware of any good throwbacks for them to take the mic :)

Griffin Gagnier

Groomsman

Griffin is Kaleigh's brother. Griffin has always kept things interesting in Kaleigh's life and now keeps things interesting for Sam as well! Kaleigh and Sam can always count on Griffin to keep the party going and make sure everyone is included. Someone please keep an eye on him during the reception😉

Emily Moore

Bridesmaid

Emily is Kaleigh's cousin and they are only 6 weeks apart. Kaleigh can credit majority of her memories growing up to Emily consisting of lake days at the cabin, Tiger Beat posters, and many music videos, although Kaleigh wishes she skipped the basketball shorts and sideways hat era ;) They have been inseparable throughout and Emily has always made sure to test things first whether it be mixing crystal light with vodka, graduating college, or getting married. So thank you Em for taking one for the team and letting me know marriage is worth it, my memories are nothing without you. <3

Gavin Gagnier

Groomsman

Gavin is Kaleighs’ youngest brother. Gavin is the well traveled one in the family and has all the recommendations for all things Barcelona. Sam and Kaleigh credit him with one of their favorite bars they went to on their Europe trip, Bobby's Free. He is also the one who got the “brains” in the family. This is evident in playing trivial pursuit. Make sure you are on his team!

Natalie O'Neill

Bridesmaid

Natalie is Kaleigh's cousin. Their friendship grew in high school when they both went to Visitation. These years consisted of many drives together up to the cabin, sharing clothes and constantly catching up on all of the drama across both grades. Natalie and Kaleigh are known as the ring leaders of their cousins to always plan events and encourage (force) all of their cousins to stay up late either sharing stories or singing with a drink in hand. Whenever Natalie falls asleep on the wedding night make sure it is not on a bean bag..

Jordan Burdi

Groomsman

Jordan is Sam’s friend but would be better described as another brother. Jordan and Sam met in high school when they decided to convince people they were brothers. They lived together 3 out 4 years at college. People asked Sam how he did but it was easy. Jordan gave Sam half his pizzas as long as he put it in the oven, took it out and cut it! Spikeball really brought them together and they were known as the spikeball kings #TCSpikes

Maclaren Michalski

Bridesmaid

Kaleigh and Maclaren have been friends since birth and share so many of life's greatest memories together. Kaleigh credits Maclaren for having any friends in high school and is usually a part of the reason Kaleigh was ever in trouble. Between jumping on their beds, tubing (with a cast), TP-ing, trying alcohol, and the many late night memories. Maclaren is the one person Kaleigh can count on that would show up at 2am with no questions asked. <3

Chris Bjerke

Groomsman

Chris and Sam became friends when Sam decided to pick up Lacrosse in 8th grade. Sam spent almost every day at Chris’ house and his home became a second one for Sam. Chris and Sam even lived together for 2 years after college. Sam has a lot to thank Chris for but most importantly would be the appreciation he has for a good candle. Side note, just so I can save Chris some time, he is 6’5.

Ciara Hildebrandt

Bridesmaid

Ciara and Kaleigh became friends freshman year at St. Mary's. The Meredith Grey to Christina Yang friendship experienced many of the college firsts with all nighters binging Grey's Anatomy, endless sleepovers, culver's late night drives and hoping one of them set an alarm for class. Once they both transferred they became roommates at 1919 and continued to be each others "person" always knowing that no matter the point in life they would have each other. They are both still working on getting over their "superior" Ruth from St. Mary's...

Tyler Meckley

Groomsman

Tyler and Sam became friends because Tyler has always been jealous of how natural Sam’s skills are at FIFA and wanted lessons. Sam so kindly taught him a few things and they were friends ever since! Tyler is always down to have a good time and is the friend you can count on to be there at a moments notice, especially if you tell him you’ll get him a beer afterwards!

Ellie Wolfe

Bridesmaid

Ellie and Kaleigh became friends in high school even though their time dates back to grade school. The one good thing to come out of Kaleigh's brothers hosting various parties in the basement was finding their love of Justin Bieber and all things pop culture. If you ever hear a pop culture news story you can guarantee Ellie and Kaleigh have already depicted every angle and have many opinions!

Ben Whitbeck

Groomsman

Ben is Sam’s youngest cousin. Sam was a nanny for Ben and his siblings for 4 summers. Sam was an inspiration to Ben and a real role model. Even when Ben was 8 years old and would threaten to have Sam fired because he beat him in knee hockey! The bond between Sam and Ben grew every year when they would compete to have the funniest gift to give each other.

Murphy Pickett

Bridesmaid

Kaleigh and Murphy became friends in high school after both getting concussions in hockey and spending the season on the sidelines together. Their friendship grew as they lived together in college and had many notorious 1919 nights together where they will never forget wine nights, skipping class to hangout, the basement flooding, night drives and 35 degree basements. After a few drinks they might be willing to share the derby day story...

Jeffrey Wahl

Groomsman

Jeffery is Kaleigh's best friend and now one of Sam's as well. He has a fantastic taste in music and has a keen ability to find great under rated restaurants. The secret wine bar is now one of their favorite places in LA. If you hear Kesha or Hillary Duff on the dance floor, you will have him to thank...

Brittany O'Neill

Personal Attendant

Brittany is Kaleigh's cousin. Growing up Brittany was the younger sister that Kaleigh never had. She allowed Emily and Kaleigh to give her many makeovers, create music videos and put up with the games they created (they will never stop apologizing for tying Brittany to a street sign 😬). Most recently, they were both the MOH in Emily's wedding and were able to plan a winery trip to Napa Valley where they had far too much fun (and wine). Due to that, everyone make sure Brittany avoids using stairs on the wedding night...

Luke Whitbeck

Usher

Luke is Sam's Cousin and brother to Ben. Luke is the level headed brother in that family and its one of the reasons Sam respects him so much. Luke is the type of guy who grows his hair out and then lets a friend shave it off because he lost a bet. Someone please make sure he has a head of hair for the wedding.

Avery Whitbeck

Personal Attendant

Avery is Sam's cousin and has become one of Kaleigh's close friends in the family. The relationship has only gotten stronger as the years go on. Whether it’s Darwin Night, 4th of July or another family occasion, Kaleigh can always count on Avery to be her go to in the family! If you ever need a last minute ride up to the cabin you can always count on Avery to let you be passenger princess!

David O'Neill

Usher

David is Kaleigh's cousin and become one of Sam's closest friends from her family. Kaleigh and Sam really don't travel unless David is in a new fun city that he can show them around and have them walk two marathons in a week. David is super easy going and has this unique ability where if you change plans on him last minute, not only was he already prepared for that but he has already planned a new itinerary in 5 seconds.

Milena Sheeser

Flower Girl

Jacob Venable

Ring Bearer
