Ashley & Dennis
Wedding Party
Stephanie Beaudry
Maid of Honor
Technically a cousin, but as close as Ashley's ever had to a sister growing up. Nobody knows Ash better, including all of her deep dark secrets. They've been stirring up trouble since they learned to walk, and have taken their show on the road to the beaches of Florida and the mountains of Utah, and lived to tell the tale(s). Steph is the most loyal, driven, and loving person Ash knows. Steph is Ashley's forever favorite human being (although Dennis is nipping at her heels)!
Scott Hibbs
Best Man
More than just an older brother. Dennis's idol growing up, now his best man. Has always had his little brother's back and took care of him in times of need. They drove their parents nuts with constant snickers and laughter ("WHAT are you two laughing about?! -Mom Hibbs) and bouncing volleyballs in the house ("NOT in the HOUSE!" -Dad Hibbs). Every part of who Dennis is today can be traced back to Scott's influence.
Lauren Wollman
Matron of Honor
Sure, she's a sister by marriage, but she might as well have been a biological twin. Often confused as Ashley's sister, the two share everything from looks (including picture-ruining facial expressions), to their love of spontaneous dance parties and the ability to spread happiness to anyone near them. Ashley couldn't have dreamed up a better human being to join the Wollman clan if she tried.
Brian Shotwell
Groomsman
Yes, he introduced the happy couple and is the reason why we're all here. The Shotwells and Wollmans were always great family friends, but Dennis and Brian started a friendship early on in life that has never and will never waver. He's Dennis's middle. No matter where life takes them, they never skip a beat. Splitting elementary schools, time apart during college, and now the balancing act of adult jobs, weddings, and babies - they pick up right where they left off and have a blast doing it.
Michelle Barlow
Bridesmaid
Epic Church has brought a LOT of joy to Ashley's life over the past 9 years, one of the most impactful aspects being the addition of a new BFF in Michelle. What started as a surface level friendship meeting once a week in Life Group has grown and deepened into an invaluable friendship for Ash. Now their weekly meetings usually consist of a different focus- Bachelor/Bachelorette watch parties (don't judge)! Their friendship ranges from lounging in sweats and eating 5 Guys on the couch to fancy girls' nights out in the city. They share in each other's successes and support each other in times of stress. Michelle is the definition of what it means to be a good friend. There's no better person to do life with!
Dave Wollman
Groomsman
Future brother by marriage, friend by choice. The fact that they share the same twisted sense of humor and love for all things outdoors (hunting, building things with power tools, destroying things with even more powerful tools) makes this marriage to Ashley even sweeter. Dennis really hit the jackpot on this one!
Ashley Piskorski
Bridesmaid
One of Ash's oldest friends- since middle school soccer, reppin' that Redskin pride! They chose each other for Gym Night partners sophomore year and continue to choose each other for every hometown hangout possible. They've graduated from late summer nights down the beach in Belmar to lengthy conversations about God and missions work, and have such a valuable friendship that Ashley would be incomplete without.
Kevin Ebert
Groomsman
Forced play date turned immediate best friend after showing Dennis his WWF - themed bedroom in 2nd grade. Maybe someday their wives will let them recreate a wrestling ring bedroom in one of their homes... (Not likely).
Brianne Sloan
Bridesmaid
Fellow SJU Hawk, crew teammate through college and former roomie in the 'Yunk with Ash. She broke Ashley's heart by moving to Idaho a couple years ago (Ash is still working on fixing that), but they pick up right where they left off any time they're together. You can usually find them laughing louder than anyone else in the room and talking to each other in ridiculous voices. It'll take more than moving across the country if she wants to escape Ashley's friendship!
Kevin O'Connor
Groomsman
Initially Dennis's unofficial psychologist and counselor at the local Yardley watering hole. But once they recognized many shared interests and Kev was looking for a new living situation, they became roomies and a beautiful friendship blossomed! Kev still maintains his role as Dennis's shrink, but is now also a true friend.
Kerry Parfitt
Bridesmaid
Kerry was "lucky" enough to marry in to Ashley's crazy extended family when Ash was in college. Ash was still in high school when they met though, and despite Ker being a few years older, the two immediately bonded and shared countless Belmar summer nights singing California Girls, kissing moose heads, and dancing their butts off in the garage. Ash looked up to and considered Kerry family even before Steve (her cousin) wised up and put a ring on it. Now Kerry and Steve have 2 beautiful daughters and are true role models for both Ash and Dennis when it comes to the type of marriage they aim to have, and the type of parents they hope to be some day.
Alex Jankowski
Groomsman
Who knew that a 4th grade class carnival would be a glimpse of who they are today? Day 1: Sports trivia game show, where they both realized they could talk chalk about any and all sports (really). Day 2: Ping pong ball toss that would lead to many bragging rights won in beer pong years later. Janks can talk sports and insert relevant movie quotes with Dennis in literally every conversation (usually with nobody else having any clue of what they're talking about).
