Lindsey & Drew
Wedding Party
Morgan Raymond
Maid of Honor
I’ve been with Morgan since the beginning, and there is nothing like having a sister. She is an integral part of my life and am so lucky that we’ve only gotten closer as we have grown older. She is so thoughtful and always there for me when I need a shoulder to lean on. We share the same silliness and the same voice, and I am always learning from her. I look up to my little sister and it means the world to me to have her standing right by my side as my maid of honor.
Trey Whitaker
Best Man
Trey and I have been best friends since the first day we met in 2nd grade when he walked up to me and asked me point blank... "Hey! Do you want to be friends?" He is the closest thing to a sibling that I have ever known and is nothing short of family. Whether running, cycling, surfing, climbing or diving, his energy and love of life is contagious. He has never been afraid to push me and I have him to thank for countless unforgettable experiences. Living my entire life with this guy by my side has been one of the most treasured aspects of my existence.
Katie Fortier
Maid of Honor
Katie has been my best friend since our infamous high school Hawaii trip, and since then we’ve been inseparable. We have truly grown so much together and our friendship has only continued to blossom. Whether we are doing something or nothing, we are having the best time together. We share a love of balancing excitement with lounging and balancing exercise with ranch dressing. She is a beaming ray of sweetness that brings laughter and sunshine to my world. Our sisterly bond is something special, and I am so lucky to have her standing with me through this amazing journey as my maid of honor.
Mateen Soleman
Groomsman
Mateen and I have been thick as thieves since early days at UCSB. He and I have bonded over many things with music, surfing, and medicine topping the list. Mateen truly made Santa Barbara my second home. He is as sharp as he is cool and his ability to find humor in any situation keeps me laughing until my face hurts. He is a few months away from being one of the smoothest doctors around and all jokes aside I would trust him with my life.
Chelsey Herring
Bridesmaid
Chelsey and I have known each other since elementary school, but upon moving in together freshmen year of college our friendship really evolved. She is full of positivity, always up for an adventure, and is truly one of the most resilient people I have ever known. Everything is exciting when I am with her and she will forever be one of my best friends and snuggle buddy.
Joey Buskirk
Groomsman
OH HELLOTHS!? Joey and I were inseparable all throughout high school and if we had it our way it would be the same today. Contrary to our mutual wishes, he and I went to different colleges and have lived in different cities ever since, but nothing changes. I can be as weird and honest as ever and Joey will still top me in both categories. It is a rare but precious experience to know this kid.
Natalia Risheq
Bridesmaid
Natalia Raquel is a woman after my own heart. She is so easy going and has the sweetest soul. When we were loft buddies she brought a ‘chill’ to my life I knew I needed. Her creativity is so impressive, and her vibe is everything! Tal is one of the strongest women I know and is at the same time a constant source of calm and support.
Rishi Gupta
Groomsman
Rishi and I are both only-children and that might explain why we get each other so well. Neither of us like to be alone and we both cherish our friends like family. Describing Rishi as loyal is an understatement. This kid would put his life on the line for every single one of his best friends. He has the biggest heart and will have your back through everything.
Amy Teubler
Bridesmaid
I am so happy this girl walked into my life, literally! Amy and I have been friends for over 3 years now. She is one of my biggest confidantes, and is the most thoughtful and considerate friend. We can do the most mundane activities together and we have the best time doing it. We share a love for food, champagne, and workouts and I’m blessed to have her in my life and standing by my side!
Matt Christakes
Groomsman
I am honestly not sure when it was that Matt and I became such good friends but I do know that he is a friend for life. Matt is one of the most genuine people that I have ever met. He has a passion for exploration and good conversation and is hands-down one of my favorite people to tip back a few with. To top it off, I guarantee that if you ever need help fixing something around the house, Matt is your guy.
Casey Schreiber
Bridesmaid
Casey is the best girl’s girl and cares about her friendships deeply, making her both an amazing friend and human being! She has the most contagious laugh that lights a room and can make you smile no matter what your mood is. I’ve known Casey for years, and am so grateful for our ever growing friendship. She is so driven and attentive, and such a special friend. Thank you for standing by me today and all of these years!
Ryan Brown
Groomsman
While we have known each other since high school it has been over the past few years that Ryan has become one of my closest friends. He knows something about everything and it would be remiss not to acknowledge that Ryan, like Matt has a knack for good conversation. The kid is like a human encyclopedia. I also cant think of a better friend to surf with and whether its flat or firing, I can guarantee that you will be entertained.
Nicole Cernich
Bridesmaid
Nicole is fab and hysterical, I am constantly laughing around her. She and I grew close our junior year of college and ran off to explore all of Europe together as soon as we graduated. She is my ultimate travel partner (besides Drew, of course), and such a loyal friend. I am so happy to have her in my life, and standing with me on my wedding day.
Myles Whitaker
Groomsman
While at first Myles was just Treys younger brother, after a lifetime of growing up together, he has become my own younger brother. We formed our own bond initially due to a mutual love of the ocean but have since shared many unforgettable times together. He shares the wild spirit of his brother and it is a rare event for him to turn down any adventure that presents itself. This sense of adventure is balanced with his love of family which, again, I am so grateful to be a part of.
Taylor & Payton Billings
Flower Girls
Our two favorite girls that are growing up way too fast. They have brought so much joy into our lives and such a big celebration just wouldn't be the same without them.
Louis Raymond
Groomsman
Over the past 5 years I have gotten to know Louis as Lindsey's brother and I am stoked to get to know him as my new brother-in-law. He may never be one to dominate the conversation but his sharp wit and humor is priceless. From the beginning I have admired his dedication to and love for his family and I feel honored to become part of that tight circle.
