Desirae Fitzgerald

Maid of Honor

My forever best friend. Desirae has stuck it out being my sister for, woah what will be twenty-nine years! She’s not only been my sister for those years she’s been a best friend, my protector, a teacher, a role model, a bully (younger years) she’s everything to me, my bear. I would not be who I am today, without her. I am not leaving you, i’m just growing up! 😘 Thank you for simply being YOU & the best of the best, Bear! LOVE YOU ALWAYS! 💚

Lauren Bechara

Bridesmaid

My Aquarius boo! Lauren & I have been best friends for longer than I can remember! We became best friends in a cornfield… yes I said a cornfield-Indiana life! Lauren has been there for me through breakups, the passing of my father, my move to Florida, & so many crazy other life experiences. I’m so thankful for Lauren & our friendship- it’s something I will always cherish! ♥️

Danielle Hess

Bridesmaid

Danielle has known me since birth. She is my cousin- my favorite one at that! She’s even had to mother me quite a few times! What’s even better-she became more than fam[ily] to me, she became a best friend also. Having Danielle as a role model has helped inspire me into being the best Kait possible! 🩷

Cheyenne Demoss

Bridesmaid

MY GIRL-Chey! 💜 Cheyenne & I became besties-FAST. She just understood me. Nobody knew what was going to hit them! FOREVER LASTING FRIENDSHIP is what hit them. I love you & our forever growing friendship! Thank you for being one of my mains, Cheyenne!

Keeley Kalbaugh

Bridesmaid

Keeley blessed us with Stella Jo & Georgie Jo!! I’m thankful Zach has her as a sister, I love having my own sister so gaining another one is an extra bonus for me! -just NEVER going to try your “broths” (or whatever that was you made that smelled up the house for days) anymore! 😛 Thank you for giving Zach & I, Stella & Georgie- they are wonderful girls, we can’t wait to watch them grow up, together! Thank you for welcoming me with open arms & actually taking the chance to get to know me & for always checking on me for putting up with your brother. You the MvP! 😘

Bri Baker

Bridesmaid

Bri & I became besties when I started dating Zach! We LOVE doing fun friend things together!! She is one of the sweeetest girls I’ve ever met! She’s definitely one of the hype girls- every girl NEEDS in their lives, but you can’t have mine! 😛 I’m so thankful to have Bri by my side as Zach & I say “I do!” 🩶

Stella Jo

Flower Girl

Little miss sass. Stella Jo is her whole own vibe! She just turned four in December! It’s been a blast watching her grow into the little daredevil she is! She loves to get dirty but she also loves to put on her dress, & her plastic heels & have a good time with auntie Kait! I can’t wait to watch her continue to flourish into a wonderful loving little girl! 💛

Gary Fitzgerald

Father of the Bride

My dad, he’s in heaven. 💔 But his baby girl is still getting married!! I never thought I would have to imagine this day without him, but here I am-planning it. He would say something like “KAITLYN ALAN, you look beautiful today however, Zach looks like he’s ready to RUN. just kidding. he loves ya & I know it- that’s why we are here today!” Learning how to live without your parent(s) is something we can never prepare ourselves to have to do, we just have to do it. -“Night, Sleep tight, Sweet dreams, Loves you, See ya in the morning!” - something my dad always reminded Desirae & I to do. 🤍

Tony Crews

Father of the Groom

Zach really wishes his father could be here for his big day! He knows Tony is looking down on him cheering him on for all the accomplishments he’s made & will continue to make! Zach loves & misses him very much!

Dave Loveall

Step Dad of the Century

We are so so blessed to have you, Dave! Thank you for welcoming me into your home with open arms. Thank you for walking me down the aisle! Zach & I will be forever grateful for you!
