Wedding Party

Emily Lynn Rhinier

Bride

I can't believe I am a BRIDE. I was born July 30th, 1993 to my absolutely amazing parents, Rob and Cheryl Rhinier. The love, forgiveness, acceptance and humor my parents and siblings showed me my whole life, have shaped me into the person I am today. I have always dreamed of finding a man who adores the quirky parts of me that my family taught me to cherish. ROSS IS THAT MAN. I am so in awe of God's kindness and grateful for the gift he has sent me in Ross that has helped me to truly understand how deep the Father's Love is for me.

Matron of Honor

I met Milly in 6th grade when my older sister was placed in the same neighborhood carpool. We have changed so much from the mangy pre-teens running around Point Place, sleeping in the tent in the backyard (why), and cracking up about Dewey Whitehead (sorry Dewey). We have cried together, prayed together, and laughed more times than I could ever account for. Whether sharing the same apartment or halfway across the world, Milly is the one I can tell anything, who knows me better than I know myself. We have grown up together, and I’m so blessed to have a best friend like her. I could not be more excited for her future with Ross, and to stand by her in support as she vows to love him forever! 

Olivia "Bean" Rhinier

Ashley Rhinier Hassen

Bridesmaid

I got to met Emily the day she was born, even though I dont remember it, I'm sure it was a great day. I have so many memories with Emily it's hard to pick one that stands out the most; so here's a few; Sharing a queen sized water bed for a couple years (cause we thought we were so cool), playing with our American girl dolls, writing songs and thinking we could be singers, laughing so hard it hurt, Ed Sheeran concert, her saving the day on my wedding by stopping everything last minute to do my hair when appointment issues arose, and so much more. A fun fact about myself is Iove to travel and visit new places.

Sarah Rhinier Readmond

Bridesmaid

Ive known the bride since 1998, we met in a Lancaster hospital room. Some of my fondest memories are crammed in a closet, snuggled up in blankets, blocking out the screams of a small child (Baby Bean). Excited to make new memories with our new brother.

Rosalie Dillon

Bridesmaid

I have known Emily since we were paired as lab partners in a junior high home ec class at Toledo Christian School. We soon became best friends and survived the best years of our junior high and high school life together. From gossiping on our respective home phones together for hours every night after school, to spring break trips to Florida, being elected to our senior homecoming court, band trips, debating finer points of theology, weekly Chinese food dinners before football games, being president and VP of the high school student council and planning homecoming....our list of fond memories is endless. Emily and I spent so much time together I consider her the sister I never had, and my mom calls Emily her second daughter. Above all, I cherish the ways that we encouraged one another to be more like Christ and follow His calling at whatever the cost. We once made a list of qualities we would like in a future spouse...I can confidently say that Ross checks off all the boxes and then some. He is so lucky to spend the rest of his days with this amazing bride!

Justine Ness

Bridesmaid

I’m Justine! I spend most of my time either taking care of patients in the ER where I am a nurse or taking care of my two little girls at home. I live in “up north” Michigan and enjoy spending time outdoors. I met Emily while working at Devon’s Fudge shop in Mackinaw City five years ago. And despite the time I almost killed her on a snowmobile, we’ve remained friends ever since! My fondest memories these last five years have Emily in them. Whenever we are together, there is endless laughter, mischief, and weirdness. I’ve never met anyone quite like Emily before and I am so honored to be standing by her side as she joins hands with the love of her life in marriage

Stacy Lewis

Bridesmaid

Emily quickly became my go-to girl when she moved to Greenville and came to my small group, and even more so after we bonded over binge-spending at TJ Maxx. It’s always been “same same but different” with her, as we often end up wearing eerily similar outfits out, and even accidentally share a tattoo artist because of our similar styles. I’ve also been friends with Ross since I’ve been in Greenville and have been so excited about how they fit together and help each other grow!  P.S. ask the happy couple whose apartment they were leaving when Ross asked her out... Hint- it was mine. You’re welcome, everyone

Ross Harris Wisnewski

Groom

I am the man getting married!! I grew up in Greenville and I met HER after a Worship Night at church. She was wearing bright red lipstick and I remember it like it was yesterday. Even if she doesn't. My parents raised me to patient, love those around me, and to always keep my focus on God. That is exactly what I did and I found myself spending 2 hours at a friend's birthday talking to HER, at a Waffle House at 1AM after driving around aimlessly with HER, hunting down strawberry juice knowing it was HER favorite (I didn't get any), laughing until it hurt after making indoor s'mores with HER, spending more then 48 hours in the car with HER as we went on road trips, and every fight with HER ending in "I love you." I am so excited to spend forever with HER! With Emily Lynn Rhinier!!!!

Gavin Beamish

Best Man

No one knows how long Gavin and Ross have been friends or how it even started, but their friendship has always been a strong one. They have been roommates for three years and countless adventures

Robby Wisnewski

I’m Ross’s best looking brother! Growing up with Ross was interesting because everything that was hard work for the rest of us came naturally to him. I worked hard in school and got solid B’s. Ross never worked hard and got straight A’s, while finishing 2 years of college, a pilot license, and playing on the soccer team. But of course, I’m not jealous. What I really appreciate about Ross is that he is humble, listens well, thinks a lot and cares for others. I’ve always tried to steer him in the right direction. Thankfully he never listened to me. He did alright all by himself. Nobody is surprised by that either. Emily, you are in for an adventure! Don't take any crap from Ross. I'm thankful you are going to be the next Wisnewski! Get ready for a lifetime of spelling W-I-S-N-E...no, 2 Ws

Reid Wisnewski

Groomsman

Ross is my bro, always has been! Growing up with Ross has been a racket with all sorts of wild times! I almost lost Ross over a waterfall at the Grand Canyon, one of the scariest memories of my childhood. Once when we were kids he bit me bloody because I took his GIJoe, but eventually he warmed up to me. For years he said, "I want what Reid wants." For Saturday doughnuts: "Ross what do you?" "I want what Reid wants." It drove me crazy, but years later I got "I want what Ross wants" tattooed on my back. I will never forget the time we almost got caught steeling a Bubblehead Ad off a bus bench in LA. In HS he used to write all my book reports for me. I couldn't get him to write this though. Anyways, these days bro, I just want what you want, and I can't wait for this wedding. Super stoked!

Noah Greenway

Groomsman

Ross and I have been good friends since we were kids, growing up together in Greenville. We made a pact long ago that if neither of us were married by 40 then we would just stick out the rest of our lives together. Thankfully Emily saved me from that fate, and I'm excited to see what life has in store for them.

Nathan Gee

Groomsman

I've grown up with Ross and have known him for over 20 years now. Whether it's been running around at night, building forts in the woods, jumping bikes off poorly built ramps, or to this day playing dungeons and dragons with him, he's always been around in my life and truly a great friend. I love this dude and am so thrilled to stand next to him as he get married.

Joshua Herts

Groomsman

Ross and I first met my freshman year at liberty, little did I know this small ginger would change my life forever. Ross has been a true friend and someone I can always talk to.

What to say about someone who has been there since the beginning? Anything would be radically incomplete, silly. Suffice it, then, that not a day goes by when my relationship with Emily doesn’t manifests in my thoughts, emotions, my laughter. I recognize her in my laughter the most. Love you sis.
