Jennifer & Kyle
Bridal Party
Kelli Nolan
Maid of Honor
Being sisters, we grew up designing our future wedding dresses, picking out florals and drawing up sketches of our eight-tier wedding cakes, just dreaming of the day we would marry our totally realistic celebrity husbands. As we got older, our ideas of our perfect days looked a little different. But the one thing that remained constant was that my sister was ALWAYS going to be by my side. I wouldn't be able to say "I do!" to my perfect guy (way better than Zac Efron or Taylor Lautner) without her.
Tyler Cronin
Best Man
Big bro! I'm so lucky to have a role model like Tyler in my life. Growing up we were often at odds, which likely stemmed from me always wanting to be included in whatever he and his friends were doing. From airsoft fights, wiffle ball games or bizzare short films that still exist on the family camcorder, if Tyler was doing it, I was likely not far behind. Since our childhood, he has led by example of what it takes to be a good brother, man and husband and I'm fortunate to have him next to me on my wedding day. Love you bro!
Amber Cronin
Bridesmaid
The big sister I've always wanted. Amber is kind, thoughtful and the most detail-oriented person I know. Serving as my built in craft buddy and the one I call when I really don't have anything to say, Amber is truly the best. Marrying Kyle comes with a lot of perks - including getting this girl as my family! There's no one on this Earth that I would rather lose a game of Catan to over, and over, and over again.
Dominic Marchetti
Groomsman
Dom and I met in Dr. O's 4th grade class. Since that time, we shared more classes in school (and rides in the Escort) and lived together for a year at Grand Valley. We’ve made some great memories at rap concerts, shared beers at the Stables together and even got to experience the coveted Players Club at LCA. Not to mention exchanging golf memes and playing Dom's favorite game "guess who I saw from high school the other day." Couldn't imagine this day without you, dude! (and no, you don't have to give a speech.)
Keri Bruderick
Bridesmaid
In 2015, I had nowhere to live for the upcoming school year at GVSU. Keri, a girl in my sorority that I knew of, but never spoke to, mentioned that she had an extra room. Fast forward about 6 months and we were best friends. That year in Unit 9 will go down as my favorite year during undergrad. All of our HGTV nights that turned into unplanned sleepovers, garage parties and family dinners with Bau have led us here to this moment! I couldn't imagine celebrating my big day without my best friend.
Nathan Wangbichler
Groomsman
You would never know by how close we've become but Nathan was the roommate we DIDN'T interview before living together my senior year of college. So many nights spent hooping, listening to Broccoli, watching Triple Ds and making oatmeal the wrong way. There's no one I'd rather take a golf swing tip from than this guy!
Emily Osmialowski
Bridesmaid
When Emily and I first met, it was best friends at first sight! We clicked immediately. Some of her best qualities include her integrity, her humor and most importantly her chocolate chip cookies. She makes me laugh when I am down, and is always looking on the bright side. I am forever thankful for our Chili's dates after getting our nails done. I love you so much!
Chris Haldane
Groomsman
Chris and I have become close friends since meeting in elementary school. From our friend group summer volleyball league to him visiting Grand Valley, hosting board game nights and everything in between, we've made our fair share of great memories. Plus, now that we're both homeowners, it helps to be friends with another determined DIY-er.
Alexx Wangbichler
Bridesmaid
Alexx and I met when Kyle moved in with Nathan in 2016. Over the years, we have seen each other get big girl jobs, buy homes, adopt fur babies, and get engaged! I am so thankful for her true friendship and cannot imagine saying "I DO" without her next to me.
Sean O’Melia
Groomsman
Seany O! I met this guy at Grand Valley during freshman year in the Kistler lobby. We were both involved in student orgs (no one more than this man) and took our front row seats at football playoff games very seriously. You're one of the few people who have known our story from the very beginning and we're so happy you'll be part of this day! Most likely to strike up a conversation about super heroes.
Kelsey Monahan
Bridesmaid
Kelsey and I met at GVSU through our math education program. Ever since then, she has been the BFF Kels to my Jen MTH210. Kelsey is the most fun-loving and goofiest girl I know. Her laugh puts a smile on everyone's face, and she is always down for an adventure. She is my craft-show going, game night loving friend that I love so dearly. Boom, instant payoff!
Drew Brauer
Groomsman
I met Drew in 4th grade and it's been quite a ride ever since. Whether it was a trip to Burton Hollow Swim Club, late night drive in the Brauer Family Explorer or biking to Bicentennial Park, we always found new and creative excuses to get out of the house. Our lives are a bit busier nowadays but we still make time to trade stories from high school and bond over off-the-wall memes. Love you man!
Brooke Bruderick
Flower Girl
My sweet goddaughter - I knew from the moment Keri told me she was pregnant back in 2019, this girl was going to light up my life. Just like a sour patch, she can be sour and stubborn one moment and sweet and loving the next. Brooke Marie, you are going to make the most beautiful flower girl!
Cooper Cronin
Ring Bearer
Our day wouldn't be complete without our nephew and godson, Coop! He is the most special little man in our lives. Cooper lights up every room he enters and is the smiliest baby in town. Uncle Kyle and Auntie Jen love you so much, buddy!
Brian and Jan Nolan
Parents of the Bride
Mom and Dad - where do we begin?! From day one, you've been so loving and supportive of our relationship. You welcomed Kyle into the family with wide open arms and remind us daily of what a strong and loving marriage looks like. We are so lucky to have such a great example to look up to. We love you a million red M&Ms!
Dan and Janet Cronin
Parents of the Groom
Mom and dad Cronin, thank you for all your support, love and advice you've shared throughout our relationship. We've taken notes on the little things that have made your marriage so special and we both love you so much!
