Hillary & Scott
Wedding Party
Liz Yancey
Maid of Honor
Liz and Hillary met during their beginner ballet days, however, they really bonded in high school. Upon graduating from college, Hillary moved to Richmond. Eventually Liz decided she couldn't live without Hillary and moved there as well. Liz has not only been an amazing friend to Hillary, but an incredible support system as well.
Jay Russo
Best Man
I have known Jay since I was three years old, and he narrowly edges out my younger brother Quinn as my oldest friend. Jay and I grew up attending the Sherwood Forest summer camp just outside of Annapolis, Maryland, which will be a recurring theme as you continue to peruse this list of groomsmen. Sherwood is where we both learned the importance of maintaining a tight-knit group of friends that keeps us in touch today. Sherwood is also a place where every resident is instilled with an unnecessary competitive fire which results in the most mundane of tasks being turned into a competition, as evidenced by our behavior whenever we are in the same room.
Haley Redifer
Bridesmaid
Haley is Hillary's little sister on her mother's side. Hillary used to lead Haley in her leadline classes! Through the ups and downs of growing up, Hillary and Haley have formed a great bond.
Quinn Caslow
Groomsman
Quinn is my one and only younger brother, who narrowly missed out of being the best man due to his current medical school responsibilities. Future doctor, current (untrained) navy man, and all around good guy. Unfortunately Quinn and I were born just far enough apart to where we never overlapped in school, but that didn't stop us from becoming good friends as well as brothers.
Anna Bourke
Bridesmaid
Anna is Hillary's youngest sister by 13 years. Hillary is extremely jealous of Annie's work ethic. Whether it be her competitiveness on the soccer field or her determination in pony racing, Anna thrives in anything she puts her mind to. Hillary is very proud of the talented woman Anna has become.
Schillo Tshuma
Groomsman
Schillo is my one and only almost brother. Although he is not legally part of the Caslow family, Quinn and I consider him a brother all the same. Schillo came to the US to study and play soccer at Episcopal High School, where my family became his host family. Now, 12 years and countless soccer chats later, Schillo is less of a guest and more of a sibling.
Morgan Hommel
Bridesmaid
Morgan was Hillary's first best friend. As cousins- they bonded over countless things such as horses, Spice Girls, and skiing. They spent many weekends binge watching Gilmore Girls while eating way too much chinese food. Morgan- be prepared for at least once Spice Girl song at the wedding.
Thom Doyle
Groomsman
Thom is also one of the Sherwood Forest crew and our relationship benefited from the fact that, for most of our youth there, Thom lived within shouting distance of my house. Funnily enough, our connection is an ancestral one too as his mother was in the same Sherwood Forest camp group as my mother, and his grandfather was my father's high school football coach. Even though Thom has ended up all the way on the other side of the country, we still make every effort to keep in touch, and I consider him a very dear friend.
Molly Munson
Bridesmaid
Molly and Hillary met in college through Sigma Kappa. Although they can't pinpoint exactly when their friendship started, they have been inseparable ever since. They've been roommates not once, but twice in their lives, and have built many fun, entertaining memories.
Andrew Dunbar
Groomsman
Andrew and I began our friendship freshman year at Episcopal High School, and have continued it through to today. While Andrew was a literal altar boy in high school, we still had time to have a little fun and to get into a little trouble from time to time. Andrew now lives down in Atlanta, but that hasn't stopped us from keeping up with each other, and I can see our friendship continuing for a long while yet.
Chelsey Jones
Bridesmaid
Chelsey and Hillary became fast friends during their freshman year of highschool. They've remained friends throughout their college experiences and beyond, always making sure to visit one another and have a blast doing so. Chelsey always knows how to make Hillary laugh.
Beau Haworth
Groomsman
Beau came into my Sherwood life a little later than the others on this list, but that hasn't stopped him from becoming just as good a friend as the others. Beau is a former navy man, a holder of multiple degrees, and once bought a gun from a certain 1970s action star. Beau remains one of my most dependable friends, and he can always be trusted to reach out to me just to see how I am doing.
Megen Jackson
Bridesmaid
Megen and Hillary were roommates during Hillary's short residence in Northern Virginia. They had amazing nights of watching trash TV, over indulging in taco nights, and teach one another how to cook. Throughout all their adventures, they've always had a blast.
Zach Redifer
Groomsman
In an unorthodox twist, the family and friends of the bride are already familiar with this particular groomsman, and I need to use this space to introduce him to my side of the aisle. If you haven't figured out by now, Zach is one of Hillary's younger brothers. I am happy to have Zach stand with me when wedding day rolls around, and I look forward to being his brother-in-law.
Michelle Caton
Bridesmaid
Michelle and Hillary met in college through Sigma Kappa. They bonded over the sorority and Longwood, of course, but also their favorite pastime of visiting Hampden Sydney. Michelle and Hillary have many great memories together both in college and in Richmond as well.
Liam Bourke
Groomsman
As above, so below, Liam is the second of Hillary's younger brothers who is going to join the bridal party. Liam (like Zach) has always been quick to welcome me into the extended Bourke family, and it has been a pleasure getting to know him these past few years. Again, I'm glad to be doubling the amount of brother's I have, and look forward to our relationship growing.
Kelsey Paulus
Bridesmaid
Kelsey and Hillary were also brought together through Sigma Kappa but became closest when Hillary moved back to Richmond. Kelsey has been a wonderful friend to Hillary not only because she's down to get mexican whenever, but she also is a strong sense of reason. Hillary appreciates Kelsey's sweet dance moves.
Duncan Graham
Groomsman
Here we find another one of the wide-ranging sons of Sherwood Forest, a man that has joined Thom out on the west coast, but has not limited his wanderlust to this continent. Duncan has been a steady and constant friend who not only marches to the beat of his own drummer, but leads his own orchestra. I am constantly astounded by Duncan's willingness to throw himself into new experiences and I hope he continues providing a guiding flame of adventurousness for me for years to come.
Abby Bolen
Bridesmaid
Hillary has always considered Abby another little sister. They met through Abby's older brother Drew, and have grown closer and closer throughout the years. Through the best of times and the worst of times, Hillary and Abby have always found a way to boost one another up and make light of any situation.
Tim Edwards
Groomsman
Tim has been a very good friend of Hillary's for quite some time now and, after Liz, was one of the big tests I had to pass before truly reaching the next plateau of my relationship with Hillary. That being said, somewhere along the way Tim and I have bonded over our mutual love of the greater Charlottesville area and a certain school contained therein. I have been able to tell how good a friend Tim is to Hillary over the years, and I'm glad that I have begin to benefit from his friendship as well.
Mary Constantino
Bridesmaid
Mary and Hillary met in Sigma Kappa and have been close buds ever since. From their days of dancing at Hampden Sydney to dancing on rooftops in DC, they've always had fun. Mary has always been a reliable, supportive friend to Hillary.
Nick Doub
Groomsman
The final Sherwood lad to scroll across your screen today, Nick is another like Jay and Thom whose parents grew up with mine and who has always been close. There are two things to know when being friends with Nick: (1) if you are ever going to place a bet, ask him first, because he is one of the luckiest people on earth and some of that will likely rub off on you; and (2) he is one of the most genuinely nice people I know, and he always seems to really listen to what you have to say when you're talking to him.
Katherine Colberg
Bridesmaid
Katherine and Hillary met through Sigma Kappa and have grown very close throughout life since. During Hillary's short stint in Northern VA, she could always depend on Katherine to be open to anything such as brunch, Bar Taco, or the Farmer's Market (yes, these are all food activities, we're aware). Katherine has always been a very genuine friend to Hillary.
Kevin Foley
Groomsman
Ironically, the last groomsman listed here is the first one I asked. Kevin and I attended the Charleston School of Law together before I (in his eyes) betrayed our friend group by transferring back home to Virginia. Luckily, Kevin, being a proud son of the Old Dominion as well, came back up this way too. As such, I have been blessed to cultivate a friendship that started over a mutual love of Manchester City and Mary Street Football Club into an enduring friendship.
