Brenda & Joshua
Wedding Party
Veronica Andrews
Maid of Honor
We first met in freshman gym class. We clicked immediately but eventually branched off into other friend groups. After high school graduation, I got a job at a local nursing home working in the kitchen and Veronica got the job there a few months later. We went from coworkers to best friends immediately. It was a horrible job but we made it fun and were always laughing and making inside jokes. Since then we have been through so much together and my life just wouldn’t be the same without her. She is the most loving, selfless, giving, and funniest person I have met and there was no doubt that she would be my maid of honor one day. She has already gone above and beyond to help with this wedding and I can’t thank her enough. There’s no Bren Bren without my Boo Boo <3
Hayden Smith
Best Man
Hayden and I met in elementary school, frequently being the two to get in trouble with the teacher. Our parents put up with splitting the 45 minute commute between houses for us to hang out. Even after parting ways for new schools after 4th grade we remained best friends, now sharing an office to work together. It was a no brainer to have him be a part of the wedding and I’m lucky to have him at my side.
Angie Hill
Bridesmaid/Sister
I didn’t just pick Angie to be a bridesmaid because she is my sister, but because she is one of my very best friends. Even though there is a 12 year age difference she was always there for me and reaching out. It didn’t matter what stage of life we were in, I was never to cool for her and she was never too cool for me. I can always count on her for a good time and a good laugh. It was a no-brainer to have her be on my side for my big day!
Jason Guba
Best Man/Brother
Jason and I didn’t always get along, but once we got past the dumb sibling issues we became very close friends. Some people would say I’ve copied a lot of what Jason has done, but I’m still pretty sure I grew my hair long first. I was excited to be a part of his wedding, and now I’m thrilled he gets to be a part of mine.
Rachel Peach
Bridesmaid/Sister
I feel so blessed to be so close and such good friends with both of my sisters. Rachel was the cool older sister that was always going to cool places and up to an adventure. I always looked up to her. She was always stuck babysitting me but now we get to hang out as friends. Even though she has lived halfway across the world for most of our lives, the distance was never enough to keep us apart. Being a bridesmaid for her wedding meant so much to me and it just wouldn’t be the same without you by my side for mine!
Joey Guba
Best Man/Brother
Just like Jason, Joey and I didn’t always get along either. We had our brotherly differences growing up, what younger brother doesn’t get picked on, but now we’re good friends. In the recent years we’ve shared in running the 4th of July fireworks show with great success. I’m happy to have him be a part of my Best Men entourage.
Abbi Sanderbeck
Bridesmaid
Abbi and I first met in Miss. Bunner’s third grade class. I was extremely hyperactive and annoying as heck but I still managed to swoon her enough to be friends with me. She has been there for every awkward stage of growing up. She has such a unique sense of humor and has made me laugh the hardest I’ve ever laughed. I’ll never forget the wacky antics we did back in the day. She marches to the beat of her own drum and is always up for an adventure, and that is something I’ve always admired about her. I’m so glad we are able to stay lifelong friends and to have you on my side for my big day.
Ethan Satz
Groomsman
I met Ethan in high school Biology after bringing my guitar in for another class. We got along from our music interests, and soon after were in a band together for the better part of high school. We even got to work one shift together at Perkins. I’m glad we stayed close friends after high school and now he gets to be in my wedding.
Stephanie Sarich
Bridesmaid
I was brand new to cheerleading, and I was so worried about not making friends with anybody because I wasn’t the typical “cheerleader” type. But once I met Steph I realized that she was just as weird as I was and I had nothing to worry about. We were voted “mostly likely to be caught dancing” by our squad and I don’t think that could possibly be any more accurate. Whether it was in the middle of our shift in the nursing home kitchen, or on the dance floor at the night club, you’d always catch us getting our groove on whether you liked it or not. She has never been one to conform or care about what people thought about her and I always loved and admired that about her. I can’t wait to break it down on the dance floor with you on my big day. B-S HUH!!!
Matt Frantz
Groomsman
Matt was introduced to me thanks to an English class we had to decorate our folder, great skills for a high school student. We both had bands on our folders and became friends over that. Matt played drums so we soon hung out and began playing together in our band, Mortiser. Alongside Hayden and Ethan we spent a lot of time in the Frantz house basement. It’s no wonder we stayed friends long after high school, and now I’m happy to have him in the wedding.
Alena Fiocca
Bridesmaid
Alena and I first met at a yard sale. Yes you read that correct, a yard sale. Our moms were friends first, and after they ran into each other at the yard sale we were sent off on a play date that same day. Ever since that play date at 4 and 6 years old, we have been each other’s bad influence and causing trouble ever since. When I think about some of the crap we pulled as kids, I’m surprised our parents didn’t send us somewhere far, far away. Despite being each other’s partner-in-crime , Her family has taken me in as their own and always brought me along on their family vacations. Alena is my longest friendship and I don’t see that changing anytime soon. Even if our lives get busy and we don’t talk to each other for a while, we can easily pick up where we started like nothing has changed.
Kelley Tauring
Groomsman
One of my earliest memories of Kelley is him dumping a bucket of sand on my head at Kelleys Island. Not to say I might not have deserved it, Kelley was like a little brother to me more than a cousin, and I picked on him to show it. He would put up a good fight in return though. We still almost always got along, and now I’m so excited for him to be a part of this day with us.
