Wedding Party
Maggie Moennich
Maid of Honor
Maggie is Morgan's best friend since childhood. Morgan and Maggie met in preschool and were extremely lucky to grow up in the same neighborhood together, spending endless summer days at the pool, or playing barbies. When Morgan moved to Westlake, Maggie and her remained best friends and still are. Morgan is extremely fortunate to have Maggie by her side on this big day.
Robert Humphreys
Best Man
Robert is Jake’s older brother and one of his two best men. Jake has always looked up to Robert in so many different ways and has had such a profound impact on his life that it is difficult to put into words. He has been a mentor throughout his life, paving the way for Jake in lacrosse at Cleveland State and being the one he can turn to when he needs guidance in his life. Jake and Rob also share a special bond through music and will listen to new music from specific artists together, even if that means waiting weeks and having to drive hundreds of miles to listen to an album for the first time together.
Paige Reiss
Bridesmaid
Paige is a childhood friend who she met through Maggie, Paige and Morgan shared a love of soccer and played together through various organizations. Morgan owes her love of Diet Coke all to miss Reiss. Morgan met Jake through Paige at sand volleyball at Razzles. Paige is an incredibly talented event planner and Morgan is forever in her debt for all the help Paige has extended to her throughout the wedding planning process.
Matthew Humphreys
Best Man
Matthew is Jake’s younger brother and is one of Jake’s two best men. Jake and Matt had quite the love-hate relationship growing up as kids cause they were so competitive and always wanted to beat one another in whatever sport or video game they were playing. At some point they each realized they were on the same team and they’ve been an unstoppable force ever since. Although Matt is younger than Jake, he’s always looked up to him (even though Jake is technically an inch taller). Jake and Matt got to live with one another for a year after college and he will always cherish the conversations they had hanging out on the couch or at the Winking Lizard for their weekly Wing Night.
Veronica Pulling
Bridesmaid
Veronica and Morgan went to Westlake High School together, later rekindling their friendship when working at justice together! Since then, their friendship has grown even closer. Veronica lived a very convenient 5 minutes away from Morgan, making it all the more easier to hangout together. Morgan can always count on Veronica for a good laugh!
Nick Pankow
Groomsman
Nick is Jake’s older cousin and the older brother to Morgan’s bridesmaid Alli. Nick and Jake spent a bunch of time together growing up when the Pankow and Humphreys families would get together. Jake has always admired Nick and his unbelievable work ethic. Jake would support Nick as a football player at Baldwin Wallace as much as he could and was a self-proclaimed “super fan” (even if that meant having to rip off his shirt in sub-freezing temperatures at BW home games). Nick has always been a loyal friend and cousin, and that was made clear to Jake when he got a little too rowdy at a cousin sleepover once and accidentally broke a pool stick. Jake was too afraid to fess up to the crime at the time and Nick helped keep that secret from his parents for years by hiding the broken pool stick in the basement ceiling (sorry Bee Bee and Uncle Dave).
Allison Pankow
Bridesmaid
Alli is Jacob's only girl cousin, Morgan is HAPPY to save Alli from all the Humphreys men! Alli has become a great friend throughout the years, and is a fiercely loyal one. Alli went to CSU with Jacob and Morgan got to meet her there. Morgan is so glad they've become so close over the last 4 years, and looks forward to making new memories together as an official family member.
Parker Reiss
Groomsman
Parker is one of Jake’s best friends and his step brother-in-law, although they’ve had a bond like brothers well before Robert married Parker’s step-sister Toni. Jake and Parker actually first met at a bar in college and the first conversation they had was an argument for well over an hour about the Baltimore Ravens; the type of argument you have with a brother that no one wins. That brotherly argument continues to this day when they get together or play video games and will most likely never end until one of their teams finally wins a Super Bowl (which is going to be a long time).
Erin Scott
Bridesmaid
Erin is a childhood friend who she met through Maggie. Erin and Morgan played CYO sports together since childhood and have remained great friends throughout the years. From earliest memories of makeover's and sleepover's together, Erin was always there. Morgan loves being an auntie to Erin's son Wyatt, and is excited to watch him grow. Erin is a police officer for Elyria so don't mess with her!
Nick Hayes
Groomsman
Nick Hayes is Jake’s other best friend and they met around the same time he met Parker. Nick and Jake first bonded over the fact they both supported the same losing football franchise, but that bond strengthened into something much deeper over the years. Nick and Jake each share a love for philosophy and they spent countless late nights discussing the mysteries of God and the universe when they lived together in college. Although those deep discussions have become less frequent since college, Jake will still call Nick when he has an unanswerable question to discuss.
