Ana Hacic
Maid of Honor
Ana and Catherine first met in second grade and have been best friends ever since. There are endless memories (and some embarrassing photos) of the two trick-or-treating together, sleepovers, late night cram sessions in college, and real-talk conversations about life and purpose. They even became roommates for a month in DC when Ana let Catherine crash at her place for a graduate school internship. It was then where their obsession with crab rangoon reached astonishing heights. Ana has recently come back from a 2-year stint in Kosovo working for the State Department and is glad to call DC home again. She has a big heart, and it especially shows in her work rescuing cats and dogs and finding them loving homes.
Jess Jeng-Mitchell

Catherine first met Jess in 2008 soon after moving to NYC. She was the new girlfriend of her college friend Kevonte (a groomsman) and thankfully she and Catherine hit it off right away! Jess is incredibly smart and thoughtful, and the past decade has led to joyful moments of dancing, deep conversations, and adventures. In 2018, Jess, Kevonte, Catherine & Zack went to the ends of the Earth, visiting the Isle of Skye, Scotland, and now Jess and Kevonte are embarking on a new adventure - parenthood - with daughter, Cosie. 

Katie Sheffield Naff

Katie and Catherine's friendship spans more than two decades. While they first met in elementary school, they cemented their bond over their shared love for X-Files and performing arts in middle school. Fun fact: Katie and Catherine traveled to Atlanta together to appear as background actors in the Hunger Games: Mockingjay! Katie is a courageous person, having lived in Europe and around the U.S. for her education and career and is now working in NC as a bad-ass electrical engineer. Along with her husband, Brad, she is DIY renovating her new home, complete with a bocce court!

Sam Ellman

Catherine met Sam in 2016 while working for the Ad Council in NYC. Even though they didn't have any of the same campaigns, the two became closer over water cooler chit-chats and soon decided to take the friendship to the next level - apartment hangouts! Both were born on October 15, and they surmise that some sort of cosmic force is at play in their relationship... that or they're just great buds that get along really really well. Sam has a wonderfully curious mind, and she enjoys uncovering the secrets of astrology and tarot. Her music taste is also impeccable.
