Wedding Party

Meet the people standing by our side on the big day.

Claire Leitzen

Maid of Honor

Alicia's literal day one and built-in bestie. Her talents include quoting the entirety of the world-renowned 2001 film, The Princess Diaries, and harmonizing with Broadway actors during their live performances. No need to watch your back when Claire's around because she's got you.


Tanner Beck

Best Man

A relationship which started on the volleyball court at NCHS, their friendship grew during time spent on the porch swing of Club 804 (their college house). Bookies hate this man.

Addie Vanderzwaag

Bridesmaid

Addie and Alicia became quick friends freshman year of college when they both participated in Nykerk Play, a wacky tradition at Hope College. Addie has not stopped making Alicia laugh since. Lover of vegan sausage and Pentatonix.


Brad Kreppel

Groomsman

After constructing the greatest assembly of roommates ever encountered on a college campus, these two enjoyed memories spanning from Lake Monroe to Gulf Shores. If he says you have plenty of room, do not believe him.

Alison Trembacki

Bridesmaid

Alicia is thrilled to be gaining another sister who is as compassionate and brave as Alison. From travels to Mexico and Portugal together, these two are always in search of some sun and sangria. Sharer of the best Instagram dog videos.


Conor Burke

Groomsman

Conor (referred to as Cone-er) brings the life to the party, is always up for a good time, and is an expert at treating sprained ankles. Do not let this man near a trench.

Anna Boersma

Bridesmaid

While Alicia and Anna didn't become close until later in their college careers, they bonded over a love of reading, writing, and Kelly Clarkson. Happy to report her driving has significantly improved since becoming a mother. Big fan of evaporation.


Haley Felger

Groomswoman

A relationship which started via a delivery of a plate of cookies and a goofy dog named Louie, Haley's dirt cake sealed her as a life-long friend. Rumor has it she has never slotted it during Kan Jam.

Ariana Augustine

Bridesmaid

Another Nykerk Play pal, it was love at first mohawk. Ariana's sense of adventure, combined with her eggy toast and asparagus soup, made her a friend you want to keep around. The best air violin player this world has ever seen.


Jack Donofrio

Groomsman

Ever since witnessing the Donofrio Shuffle on the intramural football field, Dan knew he had to keep this guy around. A dirty house does not stand a chance against his cleaning skills, especially at 3 a.m.

Cara Maas

Bridesmaid

Alicia is forever grateful that Cara decided the two of them needed each other freshman year at Hope. Since then, they've camped out on the sidewalk for Hamilton tickets, met up in London and Dublin, and road tripped out to New York, having deep talks, laughing, and belting their favorite songs through it all.


Kevin Webster

Groomsman

From making up games as practice players for IU volleyball to games of spikeball in the front yard, Kevin is always down for an adventure. Beware of the dad jokes.

Emily Kraft

Bridesmaid

"We'll be friends until we're old and senile, and then we'll be new friends." From Halloween parades in pre-school, to dance recitals and volleyball games, Emily and Alicia have been by each other's sides for as long as they can remember. These two love to gab over a mix of yellow and white cheese curds.


Sam Kimsey

Groomsman

Their middle/setter connection translated from the volleyball court to hanging out on the roof of Club 804. If you need a meal, he makes a mean chicken and rice.

Heather Troester

Bridesmaid

Hands down the best college roommate you could ask for. Alicia will never not feel instantly better when she gets to spend time with Heather. Shared hobbies include two-person book club and eating Papa John's cheesesticks.


Zach Beeler

Groomsman

Zach and Dan went from strangers at Club 804 move-in to filling a dumpster with four years of great memories on move-out. Connoisseur of wet bread and IMDB ratings.

Katie Lamich

Bridesmaid

Katie and Alicia have been tight since fourth grade when they were placed in the same class with mostly boys. They've had countless sleepovers, dance parties, and chocolate malts since. Legend has it that Katie once beat Alicia at Just Dance by 5000 points while blindfolded.


Riley Schmitz

Bridesmaid

While Riley may be small, she is never short on spunk. She can cook up a meal for twenty people in no time and loves books and babies. Worth noting that Riley reads while walking her dog who just happens to be named Indianapolis (Indy) Alicia Schmitz because Indy and Alicia share a birthday. For those wondering, Riley's middle name is Shannon.

Sabrina VanderKlipp

Bridesmaid

A sunflower in a field of wheat. Sabrina and Alicia are known for their signature sandwich, The Gobbler, and making up silly jingles to get them through the day. These two can have the most fun while doing absolutely nothing. Inquire for spot-on impressions of the entire Schitt's Creek cast, Cher, and Owen Wilson.
