Wedding Party

Meet our family and friends who are walking down the aisle with us

Kara Willyard

Maid of Honor

Kara and Alexa met freshman year of high school and hated each other. That's how the best friendships always start, right?! Ever since, Kara has been Alexa's ride or die who has been there with her through the highs and lows. Fun fact: Kara and Alexa have run the annual Color Run together for 6 years straight and plan to continue this tradition until they're old and frail


Nathan Casey

Best Man

Nate was, by definition, Josh's first friend. The two brothers bonded over Legos and whatever else little kids do to spend their time. They've been able to hangout and have fun together pretty much all their lives. Nate is pretty much the funniest person Josh knows and that has been the case for a long time. Fun fact: Nate and Josh hold the record Michigan-Massachusetts driving time in the family... 11.5 hours.

Chelsea Dykstra

Bridesmaid

Chelsea and Alexa go waaay back to their glory days in elementary school. They have really come a long way through the years, but the test of time has shown Chelsea to be Alexa's bestie girl with such a big heart and joyful presence! Fun fact: Chelsea and Alexa are avid Bachelor fans and watch partners. No judgement here.


Ben Casey

Best Man

Ben was, by definition, Josh's second friend. Although the two played their fair share of Legos, a love for nature has been something that Josh and Ben have always shared, whether it was saving rabbits from the jaws of Batman, catching frogs, or playing in the swamp. Today, they enjoy sharing advice on plants, woodworking, and binge-worthy TV shows. Fun fact: Josh once shaved Ben's head completely bald per Ben's request.

Sara Vigesaa

Bridesmaid

Sara is the only reason Alexa made it through college and being a nurse. They've grown and learned nursing practically hand in hand and wouldn't have it any other way. Sara is kind, caring, and always down for anything. Fun fact: Sara and Alexa have been roommates for 3 years, living in 3 separate houses together


Zack Casey

Groomsman

Despite the age gap, Zack and Josh have always enjoyed each others company (this cannot be said for all of the brothers). With three older brothers Zack was forced to grow up fast and regretfully has become the wittiest of the Casey boys and by far the best at Fortnite. He thinks he is the best at skiing but this is false. Josh and Zack love playing videogames together and both greatly anticipate the next annual hunting trip together. Fun Fact: Zack has never beat Josh in 1:1 basketball and likely never will.

Jena Kennedy

Bridesmaid

Jena is Alexa's brother's girlfriend, but more importantly she is someone Alexa has found a wonderful friend in. From the day Alexa met Jena, she knew that Jena was going to be her favorite of the girlfriends her brother has brought home in the past. She is inspiring, independent, and a genuine soul. Fun fact: Jena and Alexa are the dynamic duo of Euchre players. Who wants to play?


Kyle DeWeerd

Groomsman

Josh and Kyle were in the same dorm at Calvin. Right off the bat Kyle had a ton of friends surrounding him in Schultze who Josh found to be too loud and slightly overwhelming. As time went on, Josh and Kyle became great friends as they both pursued nursing. Kyle single handedly kept Josh on track during the nursing program encouraging him to study and reminding him of countless deadlines that Josh never bothered writing down. Fun fact: Kyle and Josh were once thought to be a couple by a guy from Facebook Marketplace when they bought a tandem bike to ride to class together.
