Wedding Party

Meg Dreffs

Matron of Honor

If you're looking to have fun at this wedding, be sure to find Meg at the bar or on the dance floor! I mean they don't call her "Good Time" for nothing. I met Meg in 2017 and it didn't take long to know she was my soul sister. Little did I know, she would become my actual sister (Thanks Hank!). Having Meg as my best friend and now my family is truly one of my greatest blessings. Meg, Amie, and I make up the girl gang of my dreams #trailerparkgirls. As someone without a sister, I always wondered who would be standing directly beside me when I got married, but when my brother fell in love with my best friend, the choice was easy. Steven and I are so excited to have Hank and Meg by our sides. Conversation Starters: • Explicit rap songs the DJ shouldn't play • Marrying your best friend's sibling

Hank Dreffs

Best Man

Hank and I met in 2017 when I started dating his sister Lauren! Hank and I hit it off and became pretty good friends and as time went on of me dating his sister the closer Hank and I’s friendship grew. Little did I know in 2017 when we met and became friends that we would one day be brothers and he’d be standing next to me as my best man on my wedding day! Conversation Starters: • That time our ladies left for one weekend that ended in a bar fight • Being my favorite brother

Amie Hager

Matron of Honor

Amie is the adult best friend I never thought I'd find. She came into my life as my cousin/roommate's friend (shout-out Courtney). Once I realized how fun, funny, and caring Amie is it didn't take long for me to make her my best friend too. Get us together with Meg and you'll never get a word in as we laugh the night away. After nearly 8 years of friendship, and more trips to the Diamondback than I can count, it's only fitting for us to be each other's MOHs. It's truly my honor to have you by my side! Conversation Starters: • Purple Gatorade shots • Where the after party is at

Devon Dear

Groomsman

Devon is more of a brother than a best friend! I met Devon in second grade when I moved schools from Lincoln elementary to Soo township. It didn’t take long for Devon and I to become best friends. Devon and I grew up playing multiple sports together whether it was basketball, football, or baseball you could always find us on a field! Couldn't do this without him. Conversation Starters: • The "bonfires" we had • Hallway wrestling matches

Carly McLaughlin

Bridesmaid

A blind roommate match brought me to Carly, thanks 48 West! The roommate gods worked their magic on this one, as Carly is truly my soulmate. Roommates for roughly 5 years and besties for well over 10 now, Carly probably knows more about me than even Steven does... which is likely for the best. 😂 This wedding party wouldn't be complete without my Cadrian. Conversation Starters • Dogs... any of them. But specifically her fur babies Finn, Mav and P. • RumpleMintz

Cody Russell

Groomsman

Cody and I became friends in 2015 when we started hanging out regularly. I first met Cody at the powerhouse when we would go fishing down there. In 2016 Cody and I really became best friends and pretty much inseparable. We literally did everything and anything together. If you couldn’t find us riding around town listening to music for countless hours on end, then you could probably just stop by the shop and find us messin' with something. Can't wait to have Cody by my side on the big day. Conversation Starters: • A lightning-quick one at the Dondee • Taking a single dollar off his garage wall to buy beer

Shelby Scarla

Bridesmaid

Another fated meeting brought me to Shelby. Two girls get hired at a job as they are finishing up their college years, and the rest is history. Shelby has been my best friend for over 9 years, which is miraculous because we have been long-distance besties pretty much the whole time. But this love knows no bounds! We keep in touch regularly, stay up to date on all the latest gossip, and hype each other up...even when we probably shouldn't. 👯‍♀️ I couldn't do this without my hype girl on my team! Conversation Starters: • The single, hot, rich men in your life • The one time Lauren got away with wearing a hat at work

RJ Krull

Groomsman

RJ and I have always been family no matter what. It was in 2015 when we really started hanging out every day. RJ and I have also spent numerous hours at the powerhouse fishing and that’s how Cody, myself, and RJ really became best friends. The three of us were always together no matter what! The two of them are my down-home boys and always will be! My wedding party wouldn't be complete without ya cuz! Conversation Starters: • What was stuffed in his handle bars when he came to the powerhouse to fish • How many picklebacks he bought at The Cozy

Chelsea Barbine

Bridesmaid

Chelsea has been with me through it ALL; middle school, high school, and college, and we're still best friends after all these years! We spent our younger years talking about boys, dancing in her parent's basement, and taking photobooth selfies (like the one seen here). When I convinced her to come to Grand Valley with me, we transitioned to talking about new boys, dancing in frat houses, and taking shots at McFaddens. Throughout all the years I have been lucky to call Chelsea a true friend and I am honored to have her in this wedding party on our special day. Conversation Starters: • Whether we met in 3rd grade or 8th grade • RumpleMintz

Josh Gurnoe

Groomsman

Josh came into my life in 2007 when my mom gave birth to twins. I quickly became obsessed with the fact that I had younger brothers to look after and grow up around. From the time he could walk and was old enough to be with me, I had him at the Big Bear on Sundays at public skating teaching him how to skate. Between all the practices and the games, we were always at the hockey rink. I loved watching him grow over the years into the hockey player he was and knowing I had a huge role in all of it. Can’t believe I watched my brothers grow from babies to having them stand by my side at my wedding Conversation Starters: • Being my favorite brother • How to grow a mullet

Monika Devine

Honorary Bridesmaid

Monika - the OG bestie! We have been friends for so long that we used to have to bike to each other's houses just to hang out. Thankfully, we grew up exactly 2.5 miles from each other, so it was an easy ride. Monika and I have been through the highest of highs and the lowest of lows together, and our friendship has never wavered, and for that, I am forever grateful. Unfortunately, Monika won't be able to make it to the wedding as she will be weeks away from giving birth to our newest niece or nephew. We are overjoyed for her and Alex, and they will be so missed!

Jake Gurnoe

Groomsman

Came into my life the same day Josh did in 2007 and quickly became obsessed with him just as much as I did Josh! Jake was always the one growing up that didn’t like hockey as much, but he did it for a few years as well with Josh. Was super cool watching them both grow up playing with each other. Jake became more of a football and basketball player and a damn good one at that. Can’t believe I watched my brothers grow from babies to having them stand by my side at my wedding! Conversation Starters: • His first Smirnoff Ice • Being my favorite brother
