Wedding Party
Shelby Reed
Matron of Honor
Shelby is my favorite sister and my best friend. I was her Maid of Honor on her wedding day and she finally gets to return the favor. I cannot imagine my life or my wedding day without her by my side.
Stevie Midolo
Bridesmaid
Stevie is a friend from King's Church. On the first Sunday that King's had services I went alone and saw a nice girl with curly hair sitting alone. I asked if I could sit with her. We ended up sitting together every Sunday for several weeks. I finally got the courage up to ask for her for her number so we could grab coffee. I texted her and she never texted back. Turns out she had moved to Arizona! Eventually, she came back to Ohio and I finally got to be her friend!
Lauren Dijkers
Bridesmaid
Lauren and I met at King's Church in 2018. She joined our little brunch friend group and has become one of my best friends since then. Lauren has since moved back to Michigan to be closer to her family but I will never forget the many hours spent in her condo on Lake Erie. We loved the pool, sauna and hot tub. We even loved the parking lot for social distance happy hours during the Covid times!
Hayley Hendrix
Bridesmaid
Hayley and I met at Horizon Science Academy when we both got hired to be teachers. I remember being really hopeful she would stay and teach there and be my friend. We have experienced the highs and lows of life together. I am so excited to keep living life with her, Wicker and her son, our ring bear, Henry!
Andrew Wilkie
Best Man
It was hot and balmy summer night when Andrew and Zach first met on the coast of Erie. To say they were friends upon meeting could be as far from the truth as possible, but as the years have drawn on and after many heroics from Zach over the years they have become friends and dear i say almost like brothers. A direct quote from zach reads, "There's no one else I could imagine having up there next to me."
Ryan Wilkie
Groomsman
Ryan and I haven't always seen eye to eye on everything but I know when things get tough or if I truly needed the help he would be in my corner. It will be an honor to have him up there with me on my big day
Mike Reed
Groomsman
Mike and Zach met at the Battle of 1812 when Mike gallantly saved Zach’s beloved horse Ginger from falling off a cliff. We are so glad to have him in our wedding party!
Luke Eversole
Groomsman
Zach and Luke met for the first time many years ago on the field of battle where they faced off against a common enemy where they became victorious against their foe. They met again many years later where again against all odds Luke saved Zach's pet tarantula against the forces of evil. Ever since then Zach has owed Luke a life debt and as payment for said debt asked the valiant hero to be his groomsmen.
Stormy Harris
Junior Bridesmaid
From day one Stormy has called me Aunt Rachel. I am so excited to officially become her Aunt!
Zoey Wilkie
Flower Girl
Zoey is Zach's niece and we are so excited to have her be apart of our day! The first day we hung out we watched fireworks while she sat on my lap! I can't wait to add another niece to my family.
Hunter Wilkie
Ring Bearer
Hunter is Zach's nephew. He will be our ring bearer/ring security for the day! He is a bright and funny ray of sunshine and he will definitely make our day more special!
Henry Hendrix-Wicker
Ring Bear
Henry is the youngest member of our bridal party. We are excited to have him as our ring bear!
