Meet our Wedding Party!
Emma Bluhm - Maid of Honour
Emma & Amanda met during Amanda's 1st year of University! After 1st year, they lived together for the next 3 years while they completed their education. If you've had the honour of meeting Emma, she most likely has a service dog in training by her side. She has been training service dogs for the last 7 years! Emma is known as Amanda's "mom" and "melt down manager"!
Jacob Orth - Best Man
Jacob and Christopher have been friends since Highschool! If Christopher is not at home, or Stubbe's, he can be found at the Orth Farm. The guys grew close by often finding more work to do "after work", to avoid a party. They are known to be "almost done", "almost on our way home" or "on the last acre". When Christopher and Amanda met, Amanda was informed that Jacob "will be tagging along for everything"... that was not a lie.
Leslie Sutherland - Bridesmaid
Leslie has always been known as Amanda's worst influence. She has brought Amanda out of her shell throughout the years! Leslie likes to spend her time either working on her truck or enoying a sunsrise with her morning coffee. Leslie just welcomed home her 1st daughter, Everly, on April 17th, 2025!
Aaron Pite - Groomsman
Aaron is Christopher's childhood friend! Aaron is known as "the train wreck" and owns up to the name each weekend. The guys are known for playing cards, watching UFC and going out for "just one drink".
Tarissa McClay - Bridesmaid
Tarissa and Amanda have been friends their whole life. Fun fact, Amanda used to babysit Tarissa when they were younger. Growing up, Amanda and Tarissa became quite close friends when they had cottages beside eachother in Longpoint. Christopher and Amanda are looking forward to having Tarissa back at home for the wedding as she just graduated from Florida Southwestern State College.
Dan Buck - Groomsman
Christophers "little older" brother! With a 9 year age difference, Christopher learned a lot from Dan... some good and some not so good. Dan brought Christopher many places he was usually not old enough to be at.
Nikki Cooley - Bridesmaid
Nikki is known as Amanda's "Florida Bestfriend"! Nikki lives in Cape Coral where Amanda has spent many holidays at her parents Florida home. If shes not working at the NICU, Nikki will drop just about anything for a boat day.
Alex Murray - Groomsman
Amanda's brother, Christopher's new found friend. The guys share an interest in anything that has an engine and are normally found encouraging eachothers questionable decisions.
Victoria Murray - Bridesmaid
Although Amanda and Victoria share the same last name, they aren't related! Some of Amanda's favourite memories include Vic and her blasting music on the boat in Georgian Bay. Vic always knows how to get the party started - watch out if there is a karaoke machine near by!
Tyson Buck - Groomsman
Tyson is known as "The Chef"! He is Christopher's closest cousin and they are often confused as brothers. The guys enjoy traveling together, discovering new cuisine and exploring uncharted territoty.
