Jessie & Hunter
Wedding Party
Shannon Hackman
Maid of Honor
Shannon is my older sister turned best friend. Although we didn’t get along much as kids, I am so lucky to have such a great relationship with her as adults! I’m grateful for her support and can’t wait to have her next to me on my wedding day!
Natalie Schmidt
Bridesmaid
I met Natalie at Michigan State University as we both were studying to become teachers. She quickly turned into my best friend and person who I could count on as we went through so many life changes that all 20 year olds go through. We’ve been through graduating college, getting our first jobs, living together, quarantining together during a pandemic, getting puppies, and now finally finding our future husbands together. I couldn’t imagine saying “I do” without her!
Teah Kriger
Bridesmaid
I met Teah as we began our first teaching jobs together. We went through the highs and lows of being brand new teachers together and she became not only a trusted teammate but a lifelong friend. I can always count on her to make me laugh and keep me going during the stressful days of a teacher. I can’t wait to have her standing next to me on my big day!
Kayla Turner
Bridesmaid
Kayla is my first friend from childhood. I am so happy that through everything new in our lives, we have never lost our bond. I am thrilled to have her back living in the area after several years of her hundreds of miles away. I can’t wait to get married with her by my side!
Michael Ung
Bridesman
I was lucky to meet Michael while we were both serving at Applebees seven years ago and he has remained one of my closest friend ever since. I love his sense of humor and all of the memories we’ve made together. I’m excited to have him with me as I marry the love of my life!
Evan Angell
Bridesman
Evan is another great friend that I met as a server at Applebees. I am so happy to be going through such monumental moments in our lives at the same time and having him there for love and support. I can’t wait to have him next to me on my wedding day!
Cody Strickland
Best Man
Cody and I met in College at Eastern Michigan University where we bonded over having similar interests and going to the bar in between, or during class. We instantly hit it off and Cody is much like the brother I never had. He welcomed me into his life at a turning point in my life and I would not be where I am today if Cody and I had never met. I couldn't wish for a better man to be standing next to me on the best day of my life.
Jake Charron
Groomsman
Jake and I met through Cody Strickland. He was the last of the "group" that I met when he became my roommate. We became best friends over the year that we lived together. Jake was always there to help when I needed it and was always willing to let me tag along on his duck hunts. Over the years we have become brothers for life. I couldn't imagine this day without Jake by my side.
Dylan Chandler
Groomsman
Dylan and I first met through our mutual friend Cody. Dylan is one of the most caring and hilarious people I have the pleasure to call my friend. Over the years our friendship has grown into a brotherhood. He always has a way to push my buttons and make me laugh, no matter the situation. Plus, he is always there to get into trouble with me and have some fun.
Steve Travis
Groomsman
Steve and I have been close friends since elementary school. Even though we lost touch after high school, we were able to reconnect and become even better friends now than we were in our school days. Whether we are playing softball together, in the woods hunting together, or just hanging out at the house, we always find a way to get together and have a good time.
Ryan Voss
Groomsman
Ryan and I first met working at Discount Tire. Our relationship at first was rocky since he was my supervisor and didn't see eye to eye. But that changed as we got to know one another. Our friendship grew to where we were always together and eventually became roommates. We lived together for a couple years and went through some of the hardest years of our lives together. Ryan will always be my brother and I'm so excited that I get to share the most important day of my life with him.
Nick Willetts
Groomsman
Me and Nick grew up together as more than cousins bound by family, but were more like brothers. We did almost everything together, we would ride the bus home from school together, we would bowl every Thursday together and we would even go to baseball practice together plus a whole lot more. We were inseparable when we were younger and I cannot think of a better person to be by my side on the best day of my life!
