Nick Brunette
Best Man
Nick is Shane's older, smarter, less level headed brother. He met Shane when he was about six years old and thought he was pretty cool until Shane was about three....maybe two and a half. Then he was kind of annoying. Nevertheless, years later we have become pretty close buddies. Nick enjoys camping and eating pizza! Nick ends this with a big ol' "I can't wait to party for Shane and Michelle's new future!"
Megan ORourke
Bridesmaid
Megan is Michelle's sister! When Michelle and Megan were kids it was a fair assumption to assume they would never get along. As Megan has gotten older she has began to understand Michelle more on an adult level and has grown in so many ways! Michelle and Megan has a strong relationship now a days and rarely go a day without speaking. Megan works as an oral surgery assistant and lives in Menominee Falls, Wisconsin. Megan is beyond excited to welcome her Shane into the family as he has been beyond loving to her oldest sister!

Milo Brunette
Groomsman
Milo is Shane's only little brother and is known as the one with the best hair. When they were younger, Milo got on Shane's nerves a little bit (as any brother would do..) but they've grown closer with age. These days Milo enjoys hanging out with all of his brother when he can, whether that involves camping or playing Mario Party. Most exciting for him though, is looking forward to what the future holds for Michelle and Shane!
Chris Hampel
Groomsman/Flower+ Ring Bearers
"Chris has known Michelle since fifth grade and have been great friends since. They have a friendship old enough to vote but not old enough to by cigarettes in Wisconsin anymore. They have always managed to stay close friends and have definitely had ups and downs. Distance and time can always put any relationship to the test and Chris is overjoyed to say that Michelle is still considered one of his best friends. He could not be more proud and excited for her and Shane to start their life together and is especially honored to have been asked to be a part of what is meant to be the best day of their lives! "
Aaron Klauck
Groomsman/Flower+ Ring Bearers
Aaron met Michelle back in elementary school the year after another friend moved away.... who would have though god would have given him another? Michelle's sense of humor and Aaron's jokes just connected on a level that no on else could understand. "I love her like a sister and i'm to proud to have seen her grow into the beautiful, caring, and strong woman she is today. She has worked so damn hard for everything she's earned and if there is someone who deserves everything good in this life, it's Michelle. I knew instantly Shane was the perfect fit. He compliments her well and has a sense of humor too! I know both of them will live life to the fullest and I'm excited to be a small part of that adventure because with those two, it'll be a hell of a ride!"
