Jennifer
and
Eli
Wedding Party
Jessica Kelly
Matron of Honor
Jessica is Jennifer's twin (younger by 2 minutes), and Jen's best friend! Jessica currently lives in Colorado Springs and is a Registered Nurse. She is newly married and has the cutest newborn, make sure to ask to see pictures of baby Bennett!
Cloey Millerick
Bridesmaid
Cloey and Jen met back in college at UC Davis. They were not only teammates on the field hockey team but they also were roommates for two years and quickly became best friends. Cloey is an Occupational Therapist up in Chico, CA and is also newly married!
Erica Cohen
Bridesmaid
Erica and Jen first met back in high school on the same club field hockey team in San Diego and played many games against one another (rival high school teams)! At UC Davis, they became teammates, best friends, and roommates. Erica currently lives in San Diego and is a program manager.
Jenna Anderson
Bridesmaid
Jenna and Jen (easily mixed up) met over a year ago at work! Jenna and Jen's desks were right next to each other and once they began talking, they easily became best friends. Many people at work just call us 'The Jenn As".
Alexandra Iwaszewicz
Bridesmaid
Alexandra, Eli's only (and older) sister and Jen's future sister-in-law, has become one of Jen's dearest friends. From the moment they met, Ale welcomed Jen into the family with open arms and made her feel right at home! Alexandra lives in San Francisco and is a Vice Principal and Teacher!
AJ Tan
Best Man
AJ is an interesting character. He first met Eli in San Francisco where they bonded over inapropriate jokes, hiking and disliking the same people. While Eli was not part of AJ's recent wedding party, he doesn't hold it against him and has asked AJ to be his best man. AJ is one of the only crossfitters that doesn't introduce himself as a crossfitter.
Elliot Fine
Groomsman
Elliot is the one on the right of the photo and would like viewers to think that he caught that fish. Similar to AJ, Elliot has a unique sense of humor and interests that bonded the group together. Elliot is recently engaged and plans to use this experience as a groomsman to know what his wedding day may turn out to be. Ask Elliot why he always gets us lost during hikes even though he studied navigation in the Israeli Special Forces.
Peter Iwaszewicz
Groomsman
If you start noticing a fishing trend by now its because everyone on this group enjoys catching a fish or two in the never ending attempt to "feed the family". Peter is one of Eli's brothers. After recently graduating Chico and leaving his "2013 Pete" personally behind, Peter has evoled into one of the more level headed members of this group. If you get a chance, ask Pete about his reality TV star neighbor in Chico....
Alex Iwaszewicz
Groomsman
Watch out ladies - this guy is single! Alex is another one of Eli's brothers. Lovingly nicknamed "Prison Wallet", Alex enjoys watching Netflix, going to the range, looking up to his oldest brother as an example of what he aspires to become, and overall being a cool guy to grab a beer with. Suprisingly enough, Alex is growing up and on his way to joining the SFPD. Ask him for his Snapchat and he wont stop sending you memes.
John Iwaszewicz
Groomsman
John is one cool dude. Out of all the brothers, John is the only one with a full head of hair. John is also Eli's brother (yes there are many of them)! John is an incredible artist and musician. If you get a chance, ask him about his painting and guitars - better yet if there's a piano in the room, grab a nice drink and ask him to play something for you!
Ben Iwaszewicz
Groomsman
When he isn't running a marathon, researching some crazy disease or talking endlessly about medical advacements of the 21st century, Ben is one of the few brothers to take the time and catch up with everyone. While he'd like to think he is good at fishing, we have yet to see him catch anything other than twigs or Eli's ear. If you get a chance, ask Ben about triglyceride synthesization by adipocytes or hepatocytes from carbohydrate precursors or the current international corporate thermonuclear ecosystem.. make sure to have a drink and seat handy.
