Jennie & Sebastian
Wedding Party
Michaela Carter
Maid of Honor
We have been friends since elementary school and continued to get close throughout grade school. We shared our love of horses, color guard and band. I can't imagine having anyone else by side.
Holly Howren
Bridesmaid
My first friend in graduate school. This amazing human let me tag along with her and her family at the first UGA game of the season and we've been rooting on the Dawgs ever since!
Samantha Etter
Bridesmaid
We became instant friends at work. She is my adventure buddy and my concert buddy. Our dogs were meant to be friends and so are we.
Evra Doty
Junior Bridesmaid & Daughter of Groom
Sebastian says that "this little girl saved him." She is a fierce, opinionated, anime-loving girl. I'm so excited to have her by my side and help her walk through life
Jonathan Goldenberg
Best Man
Brother. Weirdo. Hipster. What a guy! Jonathan and Jennie used to fight like cats and dogs, but now are the best of friends. When Jennie started dating Sebastian, Jonathan knew that he wanted to be friends with him. They found out they were born 3 days apart, knew a lot of the same people, and had a lot of the same interests. They are excited to become brothers-in-law.
Jake Cochran
Groomsman
Brother to the groom. Jake is Sebastian's youngest brother who lives in Washington state. We're so excited that he is going to be able to make it and be apart of our wedding! Jake and Sebastian still make sure to make time for one another even when living in different time zones.
Darrin Palmer
Groomsman
My closest cousin with a majestic beard! I love this kid with everything I have in me and would go to extraordinary links to make his life a little easier. He’s such a hard worker and teaching him everything about “the ham” and seeing him thrive with it now has been such an honor.
David Yandel
Groomsman
I’ve known David since we were Baristas back in late 2017. At first I was quite alarmed with the 6”6’ gentle giant but we soon became great friends and fellow coworkers again at “the ham”. He’s always had my back and taught me many valuable lessons along the way. I’m so grateful to have him in my life and look forward to many years of friendship to come.
Larry Goldenberg
Father of the Bride
Larry comes from Richmond, IN, but has lived in Asheville since the 1980's. His first career was on the oil rigs and then he became a nurse to be closer to his young family. He has dealt with the chaos that comes with being the NC Goldenbergs. Jennie- I am very close with my father and love him dearly. He has supported me through all my adventures and has always been someone that I can talk to.
Juliana Cooper-Goldenberg
Mother of the Bride
A native of Asheville, NC. She instilled in her children the want to work for their community.
Sherry Castro
Mother of the Groom
Mom of Groom
Samwise Gamgee Goldenberg
