Olivia & Broderic
Wedding Party
Natasha Arora
Maid of Honor
After growing up 10 minutes down the street from one another and a quick ten years apart, life brought us together over exercise, margaritas, and queso! (IYKYK) Natasha, Dr. Princess, Natty Lite, whatever you please, has been a part of some of the best memories of my life. You can find us eating pretzels in our sweats while watching Christmas movies in June. Our big day wouldn't be complete without Nat!
Kristine Cloninger
Maid of Honor
No, we aren't sisters. Yes, I still tell everyone we are! The military brought Kristine and her husband here to Columbus, where we first met at Orangetheory Fitness, and the rest is history. I have never met anyone with a bigger heart for the people she loves. We cannot spend more than five minutes together without bursting into intense laughter (we may think we are funnier than we actually are). I know our special day will be full of love and smiles with my K around!
Amanda Burkett
Bridesmaid
Amanda and I are both Columbus natives that never crossed paths until college. We were the youngest students in our class of dental hygiene school and have been inseparable since! Here is a fun story about Amanda; while studying for countless hours to prepare for our boards, we were simultaneously cleaning the house and getting ready for Brodie to come home from deployment. Long story short, my cell phone ended up in a dumpster when taking the trash out. Amanda JUMPED into the dumpster, rescued my phone, with zero hesitation. She truly is ONE of a kind. You can catch her on the dance floor celebrating with us all night!
Maria Mendoza
Bridesmaid
Maria and I met in dental hygiene school, and after graduation, I lured her into coming to work with me at Dr. Caves office! We were clinical partners in school, meaning that we were constantly learning from and challenging each other. Years later, this is still the foundation of our friendship, learning from and challenging one another. It is only fitting to have her a part of our big day!
Gracie Kate Miller
Flower Girl
Gracie Kate made me an aunt 8 years ago and I love her beyond words! She's got some sassy dance moves so watch out! GK brings so much joy into our lives and we are so excited to have her included in this special day.
Dalton Wilcox
Best Man
Dalton and I met at selection and have been friends ever since. You can recognize him as the clearly 6 foot Mark Wahlberg knockoff.
JuJuan Howard
Groomsman
JuJu and I have worked together for many years now. We share so many awesome memories and experiences. We can't wait to have him be a part of our big day.
Brendan Connors
Groomsman
I met Brendan shortly before my first deployment, and we deployed together a total of three times after that. Whether hitting targets in Afghanistan together or flying to and from Vegas a few times a night, we always have a great time and leave with many stories to tell.
Paul Hartwich
Groomsman
Paul and I met in pre-school and have been friends since (as you can tell by the throwback picture). Whenever I'm back in Kansas, we always make sure to grab some "casual drinks" and catch up on life.
Daniel Miller
Groomsman
Daniel is Olivia's younger brother and absolute best friend. He is a blast to be around and I am lucky enough to not just gain a new brother, but also a life long friend. -Brodie We love you Daniel! I am so excited you will be a part of our big day and I can't wait for all the memories we will all make as a family in the years to come! - Livi
