Our People
Caitlin Blackford
wedding party | (she/her)
People who know Caitlin describe her as one of the best humans on the planet -- and, facts are facts. She is one of Kelsey and Randy’s closest friends, loves a good trip to TJ Maxx, and aims to have kangaroo-sized arm muscles. She and her husband Luke are known star thieves, when it comes to Mario Party.
Luke Blackford
wedding party | (he/him)
Maker of all things awesome and weird, no one grills random meats better than Luke. He and his wife Caitlin have been close friends with Kelsey and Randy for several years. They currently reside in Louisville with their kitties, Garbage and Pete, and their doggo, Brisket. You can find Luke at any thrift store in the Louisville metro area.
Ashleé Clark
officiant | (she/her)
Picture it...Louisville...2022 - we wouldn’t be surprised if that is how Ashleé kicks off Kelsey and Randy’s nuptials, because Ashleé is the resident Golden Girls guru of Louisville. When she isn’t marrying people, Ashleé tends to her always growing collection of plants, is writing amazing essays and content, and loves on her two fur babies, Dolly and Patch.
Ryan Cook
wedding party | (he/him)
It’s amazing that Ryan will be present at Kelsey and Randy’s wedding, because Saturday in October means college football. But, he’d do pretty much anything for his brother Randy, including copious amounts of yard work, bowling, catching a late night superhero movie, or just a quick Taco Bell run.
Kyle McQuaide
wedding party | (he/him)
Kelsey and her brother Kyle couldn’t be more opposite, but they are still best friends who have traveled the world together. Kyle will be graduating from medical school this year, and starting his residency focused in pediatrics. He and his wife Sarah currently live in Louisville with their boxer, Ellie.
Sarah McQuaide
head witch in charge (HWIC) | (she/her)
If you know Kelsey’s sister-in-law Sarah, you won’t be surprised that she’s the HWIC, helping with planning and all those small details that will make the big day go smoothly. Sarah is in her second year of medical school at U of L, and enjoys a fine cup of tea.
Tajah McQueen
wedding party | (she/they)
A baddie. There’s a reason Tajah’s last name has the word Queen in it, because that’s exactly what she is. Tajah came into Randy and Kelsey’s life, when she worked with Randy at Louisville Public Media. They became fast friends, but Kelsey and Tajah became even faster friends over a love of crystals, plant babies, and crushing the patriarchy.
Meredith Scalos
wedding party | (she/her)
Meredith has been close friends with Kelsey for almost 10 years, near and far, at home and abroad through many adventures. Celebrating Kelsey finding the perfect person in Randy (especially someone so cool with such awesome music tastes) is going to be highlight of her year. She normally resides in Louisville with her cat Thistle, writing and creating and keeping it witchy.
Samantha Seaton
wedding party | (she/her)
Sam may be the reason we’re all here today. Because if it weren’t for Kelsey giving Sam her to-go box of chicken and waffles after hearing she was hungry, who knows what would have happened? Sam is passionate about the outdoors, nature, breathing, and twerkin’ something on the dance floor.
Zach Younglove
wedding party | (he/him)
One day when Randy was texting Zach, his phone autocorrected “bruh” to “Brunswick,” and it stuck. So if you hear one of them refer to each other as Brunswick, that’s why. Zach and Randy met while attending WKU, and quickly became friends over a lot of really bad puns, the Green Bay Packers, and Batman.
