Wedding Party
Laina Wiersma
Maid of Honor
Laina and Carly have been best friends since Grade 10—proof that two true blondes can survive the world together. While they have their differences (Laina is a cat person, Carly is a dog person; Carly loves country music, Laina prefers heavy metal), one thing has always remained the same: they always have each other’s backs. They are true ride-or-dies and are rarely seen at events without one another. Whether it’s big life moments or everyday chaos, Laina has been by Carly’s side through it all, making her the easiest and most perfect choice for Maid of Honour.
Nik Smith
Best Man
Kyle and Nik have been friends since Grade 10—back when Nik chose Kyle as his friend and never really gave him a choice. Since then, Nik has been known for his quick wit, wildly random questions that somehow launch the best conversations, and his ability to sing any song on demand. Kyle can sing too (allegedly), which has resulted in many enthusiastic car-ride duets over the years. Whether it’s a big life moment or a questionable decision that requires a fast getaway, Nik is always the guy you want standing by your side
Krysta Hirlehey
Bridesmaid
Krysta is Kyle’s sister and, unofficially, the sister Carly never had. From day one, she welcomed Carly with open arms—and immediately joined Carly in teasing Kyle like no one else can. Krysta is never at a loss for words, and her love language is equal parts teasing and chirping. If she’s giving you a hard time, it means she loves you—deeply. For those lucky enough to be on the receiving end, rest assured she would also absolutely die for you. Bonding over their shared love of Kelsea Ballerini, Shopping & Wine, Carly and Krysta quickly became the duo Kyle never knew he needed… or deserved.
Nick Vavaroutsos
Groomsman
Nick has been family from the very first day we met him. The first qualities that stood out? Patience and calmness—which comes in very handy whenever Krysta drags everyone into one of her shenanigans. Always the first to show up when someone needs help, Nick has a knack for lightening any day with a joke (or a perfectly-timed eye roll). He’s a die-hard Denver Broncos fan, quietly competitive in anything from sports to board games, and always down for any adventure. Fun fact: Nick has been to more concerts than anyone we’ve ever met, which makes him the perfect stand-in DJ if needed—he’s officially the only person we’d trust with the music. Simply put, Nick is the guy you want on your team, by your side, and probably making you laugh the whole time.
