Leah & Nic
Wedding Party
Gina Grabowski
Maid of Honor
My sister has always been my best friend, a role model, and a mother figure for much of my life. Gina's endless love and support has led me to where I am today and she already loves Nic like family. I can't wait for her to stand by our side on our wedding day and look forward to her help and guidance as my Maid of Honor.
Anthony Meyer
Best Man
Hailing from the small town of Slinger, Wisconsin my middle brother has always been my closest ally. From childhood, I would follow him around constantly and always want to be doing what he was doing. Anthony, being two years older than I, is somebody I've consistently looked to for guidance on life, work, family and balance. Him and I share a love for creation and often let our imaginations get the better of us. When we were kids we'd constantly be playing soccer in the backyard or building forts in the Green Forrest. At night, we'd be up till 2 in the morning trying to defeat the last boss in a game or watching another run of "Dumb and Dumber". We've shared a lot of laughs and been there for each other through thick and thin. I love him and am grateful to have him by my side as I enter the next chapter of my life.
Alexis Merk
Bridesmaid
Alexis and I have been best friends since high school and I am so lucky to have had a best friend like her throughout these years! I was her Maid of Honor and now am the Godmother to her sweet son, Paxton. Nic and I love spending time with Alexis and her family (we crash all their events and vacation together lol) and we are so excited to have her standing up in our wedding!
Kenny Meyer
Groomsman
The man, the myth, the legend, Kenneth James. Being the oldest of the brothers, Kenny (K-dawg for short) has always been my inspiration. When you grow up in a small town, people tend to associate you with your siblings, and ours was no different. Kenny blazed the trail setting the bar high in everything. It was the kind of motivation that looking back you are forever grateful for. Kenny was one of the main reasons I studied engineering in college and to this day is a professional mentor I look up to and seek advice from. One of my fondest memories of my older brother was a game we used to play called "Resistance". Your typical alien apocalypse shoot em up. We co-op'ed our way through the campaign, working together to "60% of the time" save the world. It meant a lot to me that my brother (7 years older) would take that time to share with his "60% of the time" annoying little brother. I'm honored to have him by my side today.
Angela Silbernagel
Bridesmaid
Ohhhh Angela - the life of the party! Sibs for short, has been in my life since my serving days at Ryan Braun's Graffito. We met one night after work, I laughed at her jokes (still do every time) and we've been inseperable ever since. Request some T-Swift for her at the wedding and she will love you forever. I am so happy to have her standing up there with Nic and I on our wedding day.
Patrick Kelly
Groomsman
Patrick Kelly, the world is not big enough my friend. Patrick and I have been good friends since back in middle school. He'll argue that I threw a scissors at him at one point, but I'd argue that he shouldn't have been standing there. Pat and I share a love of travel and have had the great fortune of getting to do that together over the years. We've haggled in the bazaar's of Marrakesh, ridden camels in the Sahara desert, climbed to the peaks of Machu Picchu, seen the turquoise waters of cracker lake in Glacier National Park and studied the Milky way from the deserted plateaus of the Badlands. The groups that we usually travel with tend to shift and change, but the adventures and laughs all stay the same. Thanks for always being up for another adventure, Patrick. I feel blessed to have you at my side and look forward to the future memories we will create.
