Beth & Wes
Wedding Party
Anna Wehr
Maid of Honor
This is my younger sister... one of my best friends! She has been there for me through all of our life's ups and downs. Yes, she is my younger sister and she can be a pain but I couldn't imagine my life without her. "Sisters, sisters, there were never such devoted sisters."
Laura Knapstein
Matron of Honor
Laura is my older sister who has been there for me always. I appreciate all the advice she has given me over the years, especially as I navigated my twenties thus far. I thank her for being a great friend/sister and fueling my love for NSYNC at a young age. I can't wait for her to stand by my side on our wedding day.
Melissa Micek
Bridesmaid
This is my wifey and one of my best friends! Melissa has seen me at my best and my worst since first being neighbors at Lynchburg during our first year. She is my sister, my confidant, my voice of reason and my favorite dance partner for 30 second dance parties (never forget One Direction jams in freshman year). I love her so much and I feel so blessed to have her standing with me as I marry Wes.
Margaret Ward
Bridesmaid
This is one of best friends and another sorority sister. Margaret has helped me during some of the roughest times in my life, and helped me celebrate some of my highest highs. Since we both lived in Lynchburg, I got to have her throughout all my schooling; giving us all the opportunities to see each other as we both navigated our twenties. She has stood by me in life so I am excited for her to stand by me on our wedding day.
James Kasper
Best Man
James is a graduate from THE University of Ohio. He is one of Wes’ childhood friends, and a world class MAC athlete. Excelling in cross country, James ran his way to Wes’ heart with their love of emo music, Maplestory, and Tostinos pizza. Even though he now lives in the flat state of Ohio, Wes and James’ relationship is as strong as the Blue Ridge Mountains.
Max Rettig
Groomsman
Just like John Lennon and George Harrison, Max and Wes are inseparable buddies. Their love of music and Nike shoes brought them together when they met at JMU. Max and Wes have shared their love of music, and their distrust of the other groomsmen for as long as they’ve known each other. Max is the one who brought Wes together with the love of his life, which puts him at the top of the groomsmen leader board.
Nick Foley
Groomsman
Nick and Wes have known each other since pre-school. However they didn’t keep those memories so they met for the first time in 6th grade. Their mutual friend Greggory brought them together and since then they’ve shared countless memories of surviving the 2012 apocalypse, spamming zounds in UT2K4, and always listening to the warden in Jailbreak. Nick is an avid collector of one man’s trash, and will always be a treasure.
Kevin Benecki
Groomsman
Kevin is the shortest lived friendship, but the longest term Ankama Games partner. Kevin and Wes have spent their entire friendship butting heads and getting each other addicted to video games to waste their time. While they share their love for French video games and malt liquor, Kevin has always been a single ear for Wes to rely on.
