Rachel & Mike
Bridal Party
Ryan Lewis
Officiant
Ryan is the reason you're here today. He's been friends with Mike since high-school and I met him in 2015, shortly after I moved to KC. Mike and I both swiped right on Hinge because we had one mutual friend: Mr. Ryan Lewis. We all hung out frequently until finally, the weekend of Ryan's birthday in 2016, Mike and I decided it was time to date. Thanks, Ryan.
Ryan Rochford
Best Man
Also known as Todd. Mike and Ryan have been best friends since freshmen year in high-school. Ask him about how his sweet dog, Asher Pants, "saves" him every time he swims.
Sarah Miles
Maid of Honor
Sarah is my older sister, best friend and longest standing confidant. I honestly don't know what I'd do without her. She's my partner in crime and unwavering supporter.
Danny Flappan
Groomsman
Danny just recently became Dr. Danny. Mike has known Danny since he was born. Danny's his younger brother (in case the name didn't give it away). Ladies, did we mention he's a doctor AND single?!
Ryan Brandle
Groomsman
Yes, another Ryan! Brandle is also a fellow traveller, Jayhawk (that's KU for the southerners), and former roomie from Colorado.
Rashinda Reed
Bridesmaid
We first met at Starbucks in college and became best friends fast. On average, we speak about 3 times a day.
Aaron Tobias
Groomsman
Aaron is one of Mike's best friends from high school to college to traveling the world together. And is always willing to make you a drink.
Rosie Yakob
Bridesmaid
Rosie and I also met at Starbucks. She and her husband, Faris, co-habitate with us about a month out of the year. It's great.
Jamie Warren
Groomsman
Jamie and Mike have been known each other since elementary school. And while they went to rival colleges, their friendship held strong. He's a grill master and new father. Shout out to his wife and honorary bridesmaid, Heather! Love you, boo.
Laura Hartley
Bridesmaid
Laura is my English cousin. You can tell by her accent ;) We are incredibly close despite living on separate continents. She's always down for an adventure and we never fail to get into trouble.
Rob Wallace
Groomsman
Rob used to be Mike's roomie. His dog is also named Stella so we're for sure kindred spirits. He and his wife Georgia are the best.
