Wedding Party
Sarah Sedlachek
Matron of Honor
Sarah is not only my cousin but one of my best friends! This made the decision to have her part of my big day one of the easiest. We have come a long way from making up dance routines in my aunt and uncle's basement and trying to impress thirteen year old boys during family reunions in the Wisconsin Dells. She has always been one of my biggest supporters, someone I admire and respect, and one the most honest, fun-loving people I know. From day one she has encouraged my relationship with Dan and we are so excited to have her play such an important role in our wedding.
Peter Lodde
Best Man
I have known Peter since we were 6 years old in pre-K and we have remained close for the last 20 years. Peter was my clear choice in choosing a best man as I truly believe he knows me the best. If you know Peter, he is not the most outspoken in this group so the thing I am most excited about is to hear him make his speech!
"Al-Fal" Alyson Fallon
Maid of Honor
Meet Alyson: the peanut butter to my jelly, the bacon to my eggs, the apple to my pie, the milk to my cookies, and the frosting to my cupcake. If you knew Alyson and I when we first met, you wouldn't have bet on us being friends, let alone BEST friends. I am so happy how quickly that changed because I truly can't imagine the last eight years without her. No matter where we go, what we are doing, or what we are experiencing in life, we always find a way to incorporate one another. Having Alyson become my Maid of Honor and help guide me through my big day is another adventure I am so excited to experience with her. I love you, Al Fal!
Ben Kelly
Groomsman
I first met Ben in third grade and after that, we continued on to the same high school, Martin Luther and the same college, UW-Whitewater. So many of my favorite memories with Ben involve going up north in the summer to my parents cabin. As we get older, I look forward to making more of those memories not only up north but also in Milwaukee where we grew up.
Aimee Harmeyer
Bridesmaid
Meet Aimee, my almost sister-in-law! Although being her sister isn't quite official yet, she has made me feel like her sister since day one. I am pretty sure I fell in love with Dan's sister before I fell in love with him! Oops! I can't tell you if it's her determination to always have a good time or her insisting on meeting me just two months into dating her brother but I knew that I was going to love her. This means more to me now than it did then because now, it makes so much sense why she was so insistent. With time it became more and more clear that family, to her, was ALWAYS going to be first no matter what. I am so honored and blessed to be taking the Harmeyer name because I get to share it with people like Aimee. I can't wait to marry her brother and officially become her sister!
Zac Cornett
Groomsman
Zac is my only brother and although my sister Aimee and I always poke fun that he's the redhead of the family, I love him just the same. Although he's getting older, there's not a doubt in my mind that Zac will be the loudest guy in the room and definitely more full of energy than others, and I wouldn't have it any other way. Zac is the best brother I could ask for and I am so happy he is a part of our day.
Kaitlynn Honeck
Bridesmaid
KAITYLNN! MY FIRST EVER SISTER! I don't know where to begin or end with Kaitlynn and what she means to me. It's been nothing short of amazing having Kaitlynn walk into the Honeck family's lives and hearts. Her husband, my twin, was always my number one and I was his. However, both Kaitlynn and myself have met our new "number ones" and it's been an absolute blast going through that with her! The four of us have already made some amazing memories and I know they will only continue. Kaitlynn never fails to invest in our relationship and I can always count on her to make me laugh and let loose. I am so blessed to have her by my side not only on this day but for years and years to come.
Ben Honeck
Groomsman
This is the third Ben in the wedding and I first met him in college after meeting Noel. We found ourselves in a conversation before we even knew who we were talking to. We immediately knew we were similar when we started talking about the same stranger at the party we were at. We then introduced ourselves and realized who the other person was! The other thing that bonds Ben and I is our love for the Milwaukee Bucks, the best team in the league.
Alexandra Lavinio
Bridesmaid
I could not be happier to have Alex be a part of this journey with me. Alex and I started becoming close only two years ago and I have Dan and her fiancé Ben to thank for that! Ben had just returned from serving in the military and we were headed to his welcome home party. My first impression of Alex was that she was quiet and timid. However, as Ben and Dan re-kindled their relationship, Alex and I got closer and closer. Let me tell you, Alex is NOT quiet and timid and is often found encouraging ME to let loose. She is without a doubt one of the sweetest, most genuine, and most beautiful people I know. Alex has made me a better person and I am confident in saying her and I will be lifelong friends. I can't wait to dance the night away with her on my big day!
Ben Slowinski
Groomsman
I met Ben because our moms became close while working at MillerCoors. Aimee, my older sister, and Sara, Ben's older sister, are the same age and Ben and myself are the same age. Our moms started to coordinate getting our two families together, especially up north at my parent's cabin which is where I first met Ben. We have become very close friends over the years and especially after Ben got back from the Marines a few years ago. In turn, his fiancé, Alex, has become close to Noel and the four of us can almost always be found hanging out together.
Nicole Hayes
Bridesmaid
Nicole has always been someone I consider to be my unofficial big sister and she has never failed to be anything short of that to me. Nicole is so poised, patient, and truly beautiful from the inside out. She's the quiet voice when I need it and the loud when I'm too wound tight. She has been supportive and understanding since we were young and she continues to be the person I know I can call when I need advice and guidance in this crazy thing we call life. It was an absolute honor to see Mr. Hayes get married last spring and I am so excited that she will be a part of this adventure with me.
Mike Evers
Groomsman
I have known Mike since Pre-K as well. We have remained close since then and although I don't get to see him as often as I would like, it's never hard to pick up where we left off. I am very happy to have him in our wedding and can't wait to add this day to our list of memories together.
Danielle Brereton
Bridesmaid
Growing up, Danielle was most often found with the boy cousins in our family rather than her sisters and myself. She has come a long way from short hair and Tomboy clothes and has turned into a strong, confident, young woman. What I love most about Danielle is her honesty, sarcasm, and ability to work a room. Danielle makes no apologies and she loves hard and fast. Danielle has always loved and supported myself and Dan and it's why we knew she needed to be involved during this exciting time. I am so proud of what she has already been through and accomplished in her young age and am so excited for her to add to our day!
Jackson Bleeke
Groomsman
I knew Jackson for a little while in grade school but I first started getting close to him while in high school and we have been good friends ever since. Jackson is the second of my buddies who was in the Marines and is currently back in school earning his degree at MSOE. I am so happy to have him back here in Milwaukee and to have him stand by my side at my wedding.
Leah Peterson
Bridesmaid
The first thing I want to say about Leah is that I don't deserve her. Leah and I have been friends since high school and over the years have grown closer and closer. I unfortunately go months without seeing her and she has recently moved to Arizona. However, every time we talk, we pick up right where we left off! I still reminisce about our high school years playing softball and staying up late hanging with the boys at my parents house. I am so happy to say that her and I have formed a bond that is 100% unwavering. She has been and always will be a friend that I look up to in every way. Leah is always down to have a good time and is always there when I need her to provide advice and a good laugh. I am so excited to share what's sure to be another amazing adventure with her.
Mike Roekle
Groomsman
I started becoming friends with Mike back in college after being introduced to Noel's friends. I instantly hit it off with him and we have been friends ever since. Mike is one of the most genuine, nicest guys I know and I look forward to continuing our friendship long after the wedding.
Carly Thomka
Junior Bridesmaid
Family is so important to me and that's why I wanted to be sure to include this young lady right here in my wedding day. I still picture Carly with a frosting-covered face on her first birthday. Now, she's surpassed me in height and definitely in spunk! She has grown into a beautiful young girl and I know that she will only continue to grow. I know she is going to look just beautiful on my wedding day and I am so happy she is joining me!
AJ & Tyler Cornett
Junior Groomsmen
AJ and Tyler are my only two nephews. While they both are growing up so fast, we still enjoy wrestling each other and to them, I am still big enough to be their "Uncle Danny". It's been an absolute honor being their uncle and I am very excited to see them all dressed up for their "Uncle Danny's" wedding.
Abigail Honeck
Junior Bridesmaid
I can't believe that I am talking about Abby being a JUNIOR BRIDESMAID! My fondest memories of Abby are from my college years when I used to spend one day a week babysitting her and her younger sister, Faith. Abby is my younger cousin but I like to think of her as a little sister in some ways. Abby is so intelligent and I am so proud of her for how well she does in school, how she displays God's love, and how fantastic she is as a big sister! I am so excited to see her all dressed up and to have her stand by my side.
Tyler and Luke Thomka
Ushers
We are absolutely thrilled to have Tyler and Luke as part of our wedding day. My cousins and I are very close and I think of them more as brothers than cousins. The first time I brought Dan around the family, Tyler and Luke had an instant connection with him. I think they spent more time with Dan than I did that first time they met and it's been the same ever since. We can't wait to see these two tear up the dance floor, they will most definitely add to our day!
Faith and Keira Honeck
Flower Girls
I really wish I could be at the altar already when these two beauties walk down the aisle! I know they are going to look so beautiful! Similar to Abby, Faith and I grew closer when I babysat her in college. She is about the closest thing you can get to a Disney princess and has some killer dance moves that I hope you all will get to see. As for Keria, it’s been almost 4 years since my beautiful, fun, spunky Goddaughter was born! Let me tell you, for a 4 year old, you could talk to her all day and I promise you that she will show you up on the dance floor. Between her and Faith, look out! I couldn’t be more excited to have these girls a part of my big day!!!
