Emma & Brennan
Wedding Party
Amy Heath
Maid of Honor
Emma met Amy freshman year of college at an orientation event and they have been best friends ever since. They lived together through all four years in college and quickly realized they are extremely alike. From Friday nights spent deep cleaning their apartment to freeing their snowed-in rental car from its parking spot, there is never a dull moment when they're together.
Blake Campbell
Best Man
Blake and Brennan became good friends when they met through work. Their friendship has grown stronger as they have bonded over their shared interests in golf and the Iowa Hawkeyes. Brennan and Emma really enjoy hanging out with Blake and his wife Taylor and look forward to many more years of friendship to come.
Miranda Hahn
Bridesmaid
Miranda and Emma became friends when they met working as baristas at Hy-Vee Starbucks. Though they attended college in different cities, they always made a point to hang out during school breaks. Even after Miranda began her nursing career and moved to Arizona, the two have stayed in touch and Emma is honored to have Miranda by her side on her wedding day.
Chris Evans
Groomsman
Chris and Brennan worked and lived together and still stay in touch even after Chris moved to Connecticut. These two can always be counted on to crack a joke or tell you a story about Chris' most prized possession - his 1993 Buick LeSabre with a shag carpet ceiling. You can usually find them golfing in the pouring rain.
Rachel Rinehart
Bridesmaid
Rachel and Emma have been friends since birth. The two grew up together and spent countless football Saturdays plotting how to convince their parents to let them have sleepovers at each other's houses. From spending their first birthday parties together, to attending the University of Iowa and now working at the same company, the two have experienced a lot of life together and Emma is honored to have Rachel by her side on this special day.
Riley Schneekloth
Groomsman
Riley and Brennan first met when they started working together and they have been friends ever since. You'll often hear the two talking about catching the "big game" the night before. In addition to Riley's passion for "sportsball," he is also a cat parent to three cats, Leo, Lucky, and Luna, and he runs a DJ business on the side.
Sydney Schoop
Bridesmaid
Sydney is Brennan's younger sister and they are very close. She and Emma went to high school together and knew of each other, but didn't officially meet until they were introduced through Brennan. Sydney is pursuing a career in teaching and Emma is excited to be her sister-in-law.
Blake Grevengoed
Groomsman
Blake and Brennan met when Blake started dating Brennan's sister, Sydney. They have bonded over their two favorite sports teams - the Minnesota Vikings and Chicago Cubs.
Kailey Schumacher
Bridesmaid
Kailey is Brennan's older sister and mother of the two ring bearers. She has been a huge help and confidant for Emma throughout the wedding process. Kailey has welcomed Emma into the family with open arms and is excited to stand by the Bride on her big day.
Cole Schumacher
Groomsman
Cole is Brennan's brother in law and father of the two ring bearers. Like Brennan, Cole is also a big Vikings fan as he grew up in Mankato. Cole was one of the first people in Brennan's life who knew Emma was the one and was a leading force in cheering the couple on from the beginning.
Preston Hayes
Usher
Preston is Emma's younger brother and middle child of the Hayes family. Because they are so close in age, the two have always had a strong sibling bond. Growing up they were involved in a lot of the same activities and had several shared friends, but their relationship is strongest in adulthood though they don't live near each other anymore.
Andrew Hayes
Usher
Andrew is Emma's youngest brother and the youngest of the Hayes family. Despite their age difference, Andrew and Emma grew up very close. They would often go for late night drives to get snacks and talk about all of the usual things siblings talk about. The two have remained close in adulthood as they bond over shared college and life experiences.
