Meet the Crew
Bridesmaids
Something Old: Jackie Barber
Jackie and Kitty met in high school in FFA doing horse judging. Kitty always looked up to Jackie, and knew that she could rely on her for lots of fun when they hung out and solid advice when she needed it. They have stayed in touch, with Jackie even visiting Kansas a few times! One funny thing about their friendship, Kitty’s parents’ cat Kringle can’t tell them apart, and they have been mistaken for sisters several times (although they really only have red hair in common).
Something New: Mollie Burton
Mollie and Kitty found each other in Physics class in undergraduate at K-State. They quickly formed a study group and have supported each other through the many ups and downs of undergraduate and vet school. Mollie has been there for Kitty's mother's cancer journey and for Kitty's own health problems. They both share a love of animals, cartoons, and Game of Thrones.
Something Borrowed: Sarah Bezek
Sarah is Alex’s cousin. She introduced herself to Kitty shortly after Kitty and Alex started dating, and they have been best friends ever since! They share a love of all things nerdy, and even though they have many miles between them, always manage to feel close when they catch up! It is so great that Kitty really has been accepted as part of the family from the beginning, and owes her love of Dr.Who to Sarah's recommendation!
Something Blue Crew!
Sarina Irwin
Sarina and Kitty met through their mutual friend Mollie, when Mollie and Sarina worked at the local animal shelter. Sarina is an honorary vet student, frequently coming over to help Kitty study, prep meals, or even driving with her to Indiana on breaks! They watched the SyFy show Lost Girl together and share a deep love of music. They don't always have the same tastes, but they love sharing music anyway.
Kayla Broeker
Kayla and Kitty met in vet school and quickly formed a study group. They bonded over their love of cats and geek culture, and Kayla has supported Kitty through her many trials and tribulations of vet school! They occasionally take breaks to watch some trash tv (Real Housewives of Beverly Hills), play some Wii games, or play a few rounds of cards.
Alicia Malet
Alicia and Kitty found each other in vet school and found out they were both the quiet, sarcastic type. Their study group helped them get through the harder classes, and their friendship helped them get through the emotional side of vet school. Alicia and Kitty study together, but take time to play with Oreo (Alicia's dog) and Rorschach and Rowan (Kitty and Alex's cats) or bake cookies and banana bread.
Meet the Crew
Groomsmen
Jon Stacks
Alex and Stacks met in 9th grade at Rockhurst High School, an all-boys Jesuit high school. They quickly became best friends and were together in the chess club (State Champions!), juggling club, and wrestling. They stayed friends through high school and roomed together freshman year of college. Stacks is the reason Kitty and Alex met, as he is the one who got Alex to sign up for the leadership retreat, Alex was a groomsman in Stacks' beautiful wedding a few years ago.
Chase Sinclair
Chase and Alex met during their internship at Cerner as roommates. They got along so well that when they were both offered jobs at Cerner the next year, they decided to room together with another intern they met, Matt Quigley. They enjoyed many guys trips to the "Brozarks" for lake vacations and Colorado for ski trips.
