Maid of Honor
As my older sister, April had to bear with me during my quirky childhood years. We shared a room growing up, and April will never let me live down all my embarrassing sleep-talking. She was my first teacher, who taught me how to ride a bike, read, and braid my own hair. Our version of bonding involves telling dad jokes and bursting into our own made-up song parodies as if we live in a musical SNL sketch. I am so fortunate to have a sibling who appreciates my weird and supports me unconditionally. As my lifelong cheerleader, I am so glad to have her be a part of our big day.
Best Man
As my older brother, Ryan has been my role model, best friend, and closest confidant from the moment I entered this world. We’ve always been inseparable, so much so that our parents gave me the nickname “Me Too” because I tagged along with everything Ryan did. Over the years, my Phish head brother and I have attended hundreds of concerts across nearly every music genre. I hit the jackpot in the brother lottery and am honored to have him as my best man.
Bridesmaid
As my godmother and the oldest sister in the Frolek gang, Julie is a mother hen who works hard and plays harder. A mother of 8, business owner, leader in her community, and full-on super woman, I'm not convinced Julie ever sleeps. I've had the privilege of nannying at Julie's house a few summers during high school, during which I had the role of making her a stiff drink every night when she came home from work. I am honored to have her stand by me when we say "I do."
Groomsman
Mike and I met in second grade, bonding through our goofy humor and love for the band Metallica. He has been a staple around our home for decades, always bringing his funny voices and created characters into our lives. Mike often reminisces about our childhood, making each moment spent together feel like a Nickelodeon-infused trip through memory lane. I’m excited to celebrate another milestone in our friendship with him as my groomsman on my wedding day.
Bridesmaid
Known for being the fun sister, Jill is always light-hearted and up for a good time. She's an avid reader with a green thumb and a knack for DIY projects, which I love to pick her brain about. Jill reminds me to enjoy the little things in life, and I truly admire her sense of calm and balance. I also enjoy the moments when her pre-school teacher voice comes out! (If you know, you know.) I am so happy to have her stand by me on our big day.
Groomsman
I met Merek during our freshman year at the University of Dayton where we were dorm neighbors who quickly bonded over intense video game battles and weekly movie nights. Merek perfectly represents a strong, hysterical and fiercely loyal group of friends from Dayton that I’m proud to still have to this day. His unwavering loyalty and friendship have been constants over the years, and I’m thrilled to have him by my side as we celebrate this unforgettable day.
Bridesmaid
As far as baby sisters go, Kyle's sister Katie is probably the best. She has an endless stream of energy and optimism, which turns every gathering into a raging party. While Katie will never give herself credit for this, she is also incredibly driven, kind, and thoughtful, with a gift for uplifting her loved ones when in need. With all the uplifting she does, it's no surprise she can tear the house down on karaoke night! I am so proud to officially be able to call her my sister.

Mike is a wonderful example of how incredible people enter your life when you’re surrounded by other amazing individuals. Although we grew up in the same town, we didn’t connect until later, thanks to my brother. I’ve known Mike for nearly a decade and he’s undeniably the most handsome and fashionable member of our group. I like to think that his impeccable style has rubbed off on us by now and if I look halfway decent on my wedding day, it’s all thanks to Mike’s influence. I’m excited to have him by my side on this special occasion!
Bridesmaid
Since high school, Lindsey has been my best friend, confidant, and partner in crime, both literally and figuratively. She's the kind of person that sees the best in people, and with her bubbly personality, she can strike up a conversation with anyone. The loyalty, understanding, and compassion Lindsey holds for everyone and anyone is truly unmatched, and I can happily say that I'm a better person for all that she has brought to my life.
Groomsman
My relationship with Holly wouldn’t exist without Brandon, who is responsible for putting us both in the right place at the right time to meet. I first met Brandon while studying in Hawaii during college, and even though years would pass without seeing each other, we remained great friends. Our friendship continued to grow when he moved to Chicago and we eventually both found our ways to California where our bond continues to strengthen. I’m incredibly grateful to have the friend who started it all standing by my side on this special day.
Bridesmaid
During my Chicago era, Nicki and I met on a whim and instantaneously became close friends. This Boston native is wicked smart, an incredible cook, and can build anything-- from furniture to a full bathroom remodel. When she's not conquering the world, she is my supportive, down-to-earth, unofficial therapist who truly gets me. When Kyle and I first met, Nicki worked behind the scenes to vet Kyle and then fostered our relationship until we finally decided to become an official couple. She is a big part of our love story, and I can't imagine celebrating our love without her.
Groomsman
Mick and I met at the University of Dayton, and from day one, he’s been the kind of friend you can always count on. Whether it’s cracking a joke at the perfect moment or turning an ordinary night into an unforgettable one, Mick has a way of bringing people together. He’s the life of the party, but more importantly, he’s the kind of friend who shows up when it matters most. His loyalty runs deep, and I’m grateful to have him as part of this unforgettable day—just like he’s been there for so many great moments before.
