Abby AKA Abbs, Hermana, Bergy, Berg, Bergina-slims.... is Natalie’s baby sister. They are 17 months apart and grew up very close. They share a love of music, dance, and Hanson. They are WAY better now at sharing clothes, then they used to be.
Abby and her husband Tyler Krampe married in 2014 and welcomed their first baby girl Eloise Vaughan in June of 2018.
Eloise will be a flower girl in Natalie and Matt’s wedding. :)
Amanda and Natalie met at Missouri Western back in 2009 when they began working together in the Student Engagement Center. Amanda heard a sorority girl from KU was going to be working with her and was a little hesitant. Even though Amanda wasn't so sure about Natalie, they instantly became friends!
Fast forward a few years later and they would go into business together as wedding coordinators. Between the two of them they have coordinated over 50 weddings to date with more on the books for 2019 and 2020.
Crystle and Natalie met at 41 Action News during one of the infamous Hot-dog Fridays. One of their first conversations lasted a whopping 3 hours right in the middle of the work day. (Sorry Mike!) They had so much in common neither one of them could believe it, and have been besties ever sense.
They have spent hours upon hours talking about very serious topics involving psychology and pondering life. As well as their love for travel, working out, and cute clothes. They have been lucky enough to travel together which involves lots of pics. They often joke about Crystle being Natalie’s "other fiancé".
Kalli and Natalie have been best friends for many years. Their friendship started back in 2002 on their first day at Central High. They both remember meeting each other that day in gym class, but their first impressions were very different! Kalli was initially hesitant, but Natalie was determined for them to become friends and it wasn't long until they were inseparable. All throughout high school and college both sets of parents thought each one was a bad influence on the other but they have grown up throughout their long friendship into great influences to each other!!
Kalli married the love of her life Nick back in 2015. They have a one and a half year old son named Benny.
Benny will be a a ring bearer in Matt and Natalie's wedding.
Krystal and Natalie became friends when they both were selected to become members of Sigma Kappa Sorority at KU back in 2005. Had it not been for Krystal being so kind and gently persistent Natalie probably would have spent every weekend away from KU. Finally Krystal convinced Natalie to attend their Naismith Dorm party at the end of the school year. They would go on to room together in the sorority house and have remained extremely close ever since.
Krystal married the love of her life, Aaron, in a beautiful ceremony on Secret Island in Honolulu, Hawaii back in 2016. Their epic wedding week was spent with lots of family and friends in Hawaii which Natalie and Matt were lucky enough to be a part of.
Lindy and Natalie met through her sister Kalli. They would all hang out at the Roberson Household and eventually once Lindy was a little older Natalie and Kalli would take Lindy out. Despite being a couple years younger, Lindy fit right in immediately. They often joke that Lindy is the most mature out of all of them and probably still is to this day!
Lindy and the love of her life, Alex, married in April of 2014. They have two little boys Brecken (7) and Jasper (2).
Jasper will be a ring bearer in the wedding.
Sierrah and Natalie met back in middle school, but they didn't start hanging out until highschool. All throughout high school and college they would remain very close. In 2011 Sierrah took a leap of faith and moved to Melbourne Australia for 6 months and after those 6 months, she would move to Sydney for another 6 months. Natalie decided to join her would join her in Sydney where they both
In 2017 Sierrah married the love of her life, Matt, in a mountainside ceremony outside of Denver, CO.
Taylor and Natalie have known each each other since middle school. When Taylor initially thought Natalie's Hanson key chain in her book bag was dorky, but it turns out they both (at one time) shared a love for Hanson, Taylor just outgrew it a little sooner than Natalie did. They remained close all throughout high school, college, and into adulthood.
Taylor married the love of her life Matt in 2015 here in Kansas City and they have a beautiful girl named Annabelle. Annabelle will three years old this June.
Fun Fact- Zac can out run a bear.
