Chelsea & Steven
Our Party
Alyssa Bowling
Maid of Honor
Alyssa and I (Chelsea) became close during our college heydays and even closer as ‘adulting’ transformed into the norm. From our Saturday liquid lunches at the Upper Deck to embracing the simpleness of just relaxing at home, we always seemed to find ourselves on the same vibe level. We’ve seen each other go through some pretty rough patches. But no matter how tough, I knew I could rely on Alyssa, who was either waiting on standby with a shovel and gloves or a shoulder to lean on.
Trish Durius
Maid of Honor
Trish and I (Chelsea, again) have been the best of friends since Kindergarten. Glued to the hip of one another, we were inseparable! We spent countless hours playing in the woods, making up 101 games you could play with a Dollar General bouncy ball, mastering pranks, and surviving the ghosts that lived in the basement. Despite the 1,183 miles that now separate us, I know Trish will be by my side in an instant if I ever need her to be. I couldn’t be more honored to have these two ladies by my side!
Daniel Clark Jr.
Best Man
If you don't know by now, Dan is my older brother. He has been apart of my life since the day I was born. There have been times that we haven't gotten along growing up like many siblings do but look at where we are now! He has been someone I could always look up to and go to when I was in need. We have some great competitiveness together with all sorts of sports/activities and he beats me in just about everything. He is married to the lovely Kara and has 2 beautiful children whom I am the FAVORITE UNCLE to.
Dennis Pirt
Groomsman
This guy, he has seen the best and worst of me. I have known Denny since 2012 when I started DJing at a bar in Akron called Chewy's Speakeasy. He is a guy that I am always able to count on. On my 21st birthday he helped me stay on the sidewalk as we walked back to his place because the world was spinning way too much for me. He is my life long gaming partner who will spend DAYS playing the same game, the same level, the same story over and over with me and never get bored. We have gotten into a lot of shenanigan's together throughout the years. He is a fantastic karaoke singer and I'm sure he will be serenading all of us at the wedding!
Joel Arnold
Groomsman
Where to start with Joel? He has been a friend of mine since the good ol' days of Howies. I met him when I started DJing there and we quickly became friends. From sinking dirtbikes in large mud puddles in Wellsville to rescuing boat engines out of the Portage Lakes, mischief-making was always around the corner with us! Today we get our kicks when the weather is decent and we can take the motorcycles out. He is my right-hand man when we put on the Portage Lakes Eagles Poker Runs.
