Our Story

Linnea is Rachel’s sister, built in best friend, and confidante. Calm, thoughtful, and endlessly supportive, her place beside them makes the day complete.

Lillie and Rachel met at Chautauqua as teenagers and have been best friends ever since. Strong, adventurous, and fiercely loyal, Lillie has been there through every milestone—late-night talks, moves, and all of life’s surprises. Through every season, she's been there—and this day is no exception.

Augusta and Rachel's friendship took root at Chautauqua and has grown into something like chosen family. Boisterous in all the best ways, enthusiastic, and steady, she's always the first one up for an adventure. Rachel couldn't imagine celebrating without her.

Rubee is Scott's daughter, and having her in the wedding party means everything to the family Rachel feels so lucky to be joining. Smart and quick-witted, she keeps everyone on their toes and never misses a beat.

Carolanne is a kindred spirit whose warmth and shared values made her feel like family from the very beginning. Kind, fun, and endlessly patient, she has a gift for putting everyone around her at ease. Rachel is so grateful to have her by her side.

Robin meets everyone exactly where they are and knows how to turn any ordinary day into a great time. Accepting, fun-loving, and fiercely loyal, she'll do just about anything for the people she cares about. The day will be brighter with her in it.

Isaiah is Scott's son and one of the most important people standing with him on this day. Strong, loyal, and sweet-natured, he's the kind of person you can always count on. Having him stand as Best Man carries special meaning for the whole family.

Josh and Scott have been friends since their college years, sharing stories, milestones, and everything life has thrown their way. Steadfast and generous, Josh has offered unwavering support through it all. There was never any question that he'd stand as Best Man.

Before Scott and Brian were lifelong friends, they were college roommates—swapping stories, and figuring life out one day at a time. Decades later, that easy bond hasn't changed, and Brian has remained someone Scott can count on without a second thought. 

Brian Gould

Jim is Scott's cousin and a true kindred spirit—the two have always been bonded by a shared love of music and movies. More like a brother than a cousin, he brings an easy, familiar comfort wherever he goes. Scott wouldn't have it any other way than to have him in the lineup.

Jim Stillwagon

Zachary is Rachel's brother—family in the truest sense. Hardworking and uniquely talented, he carries a sharp, understated wit that catches you just when you least expect it. He's been a brother to Scott too, and having him stand with them on this day means more than words can say.

Zachary Stewart

Austin is Scott's brother-in-law, but he's felt like another brother from the start. Kind and hilarious, he can brighten any room he walks into and is always up for a creative dance party. It only feels right to have him standing close.

We want every guest to celebrate with peace of mind, including those with little ones in tow. We have arranged professional on-site childcare, who will be stationed in a dedicated conference room at the Courtyard Marriott Pittsburgh University Center for the duration of our ceremony and reception. Their team of certified, experienced caregivers will keep children engaged, entertained, and well-supervised so that parents can be fully present throughout the evening.
