Wedding Party

Matron of Honor- Jen Palermo

I am lucky to call my sister one of my very best friends. She is feisty, thoughtful, and an incredible role model. Some of my favorite memories include our annual Christmas pjs (she always wants to steal mine), "sister" trip to St. Thomas, and many family trips to Torres Mazatlan. 

Matron of Honor- Melana Kipp

Melana is my fearless friend who is up for anything. She has taught me to live in the moment and laugh all the way through. We share a love for travel, Seahawks, and wine tasting :)

Bridesmaids:

Natasha Thompson

"Winks" and I met at Camp Sambica as counselors. Somehow i would always get the fun little boys and she would end up with the 5 year old girly girls :) We preformed many silly skits, encouraged kids to grow their self confidence and most of all created a life long friendship.

Jessica McHugh

Jessica and I have been friends since high school. I always admire her sense of detail, love of all things sparkly, desire to throw a party and love of “bubbles”! We both also resembled brides at senior prom so this is very full circle :)

Alison Wright

Alison is so kind hearted and fun! She has amazing/brutal game skills :) I love the "simple things" with Alison- hanging out, making dinners and watching football!

Nicole Campbell

Nicole is always up for a good dance party! We spent a lot of time simply driving around in high school singing along and listening to her personally made mixed cds. Her sense of "family" has been a wonderful glue to our group of friends from high school. 

Julia Jones

Julia is one of my "oldest" friendships. Our fun memories started as little girls on the Pink Panther soccer field and continued as I visited her and explored new cities as she moved around from Boston to Chicago after college. 

Best Man:

Michael Bell 

My brother, a funny guy.   Over the years growing up and maturing, we've transformed from distant siblings to close brothers. 

Groomsmen:

Jeffery Swenson

Jeff and Chris have known each other practically their entire life as they met in the 1st grade.  They've been through a lot of life adventures together, frequent the gun range, and trying new bottles of Scotch.  Last year Jeff got married and has been enjoying the married life ever since.  

Craig Brown

Craig and Chris met in the 7th grade in Mr Pygott's metal shop.  He had made a dog out of sheet metal, Chris thought it was cool, and inquired if he could use his idea.  It turned out they lived a few blocks from each other, had similar interests, and hung out often.

Feng Tien

Feng and Chris met their freshman year in high school in Mr. Majorowicz English class.  They ended up fighting over the classroom computer and somehow that transformed into a friendship.  They've hiked around Washington quite a bit over the years. 

Joe Palermo

While Joe and Chris have only known each other for a few years, they've connected on common ground.  Chris is looking forward to the years ahead to better become friends.  He also recognizes the fact that he is now becoming one of the three most important men in Jamie's life after her dad, Joe, and now Chris.
