Kelsey & Ryan
Wedding Party
Brooke Van Sickle
Maid of Honor
Friends since the fourth grade, Brooke and Kelsey have spent a lifetime making memories together. A combination of birthday parties, prom, Papa Georgio's Pizza, and too many late nights to count, have proven that these two will be close friends for many decades to come.
Alex Prinsen
Best Man
Alex and Ryan became fast friends in college through UNIFI. At UNI, they had many good times together, involving 5 dollar pizza, Radiohead, video games, and tables. Legend has it that a certain tank meme page they created still exists, somewhere on the internet. Alex has been a reliable friend for many years, and for that, Ryan will always be grateful.
Brittany Hobbs
Bridesmaid
College roommates for two (basically three) years, Brittany and Kelsey became as close as sisters while at Luther College. Spending a month in India together after graduation afffirmed the fact that experiences with Brittany will always be the most unique.
Samuel Lode
Groomsman
For as long as Ryan can remember, Sam has been a part of his life. Ryan and Sam have wasted their lives playing countless hours of video games together, time well spent indeed. Sam has always been there, even when Ryan has been an unwise jerk. Ryan considers himself lucky that he can call Sam a brother and a friend.
Jocelyn Deegan
Bridesmaid
Despite living thousands of miles apart, Kelsey and her oldest sister are closer now than when they used to share a bedroom. Solicited or not, Jocelyn and Kelsey frequently provide one another with quality life advice.
Jacob Hunerdosse
Groomsman
Kelsey's brother has mastered at least two things in his life: dad jokes and a mustache to rival Burt Reynolds. These two skills alone result in time spent together consisting only of quality entertainment.
Courtney Johnson
Bridesmaid
Courtney and Kelsey met while working in residential treatment together. On-the-job trauma and all-nighters talking about philosophy and society bonded them and solidified their friendship.
Adrian Mitchell
Groomsman
Ryan first hung out with Adrian in a game of Dungeons and Dragons. Their D&D shenanigans have quickly escalated into a full fledged friendship. Whether board gaming, or exploring a dungeon with the party, Ryan can always rely on Adrian for comedy and a good time.
Jessica Wayson
Bridesmaid
Jess became a permanent fixture in Ryan and Kelsey's friend group when she began dating Ryan's best man. Jess' intelligence and quick wit always makes time together more enjoyable, whether it be during a game night or a night doting on Jess' cats (it's usually a little bit of both!)
Matthew Wimmer
Groomsman
Ryan met Mathew at his first job out of college at DuPont Pioneer. Mathew helped Ryan learn the ropes of lab work, always willing to lend a hand. Infinitely relatable, and down to earth, Mathew is someone Ryan can count on for advice, laughs, and a beer.
Decorah Deegan
Flower Girl
After Kelsey asked her firecracker of a niece to be the flower girl, she spent a good portion of her time at Disney World picking flowers to present to her. While Kelsey just meant for the flower girl job to be during the wedding, Decorah's interpretation was even better.
Jonas Hunerdosse
Ring Bearer
Kelsey's nephew is quite-possibly the only three-year-old whose leisure activities include watching Teen Wolf and practicing Michael Jackson dance moves. This kid has enough personality to entertain for days, and it doesn't hurt that he is adorable as well!
Maxwell Deegan
Usher
Living thousands of miles apart doesn't prevent Kelsey from being any closer with her nephew. Whether she is teaching him to play Ticket to Ride or he is teaching her to play chess, their time together is always filled with learning and laughter.
Gregory Lode
Usher
When he's not playing video games, he's raising hell at home! It's hard to believe he's already 16, but he'll always be Ryan's little brother.
