Maid of Honor
Younger sister of the bride. For the bride it was such a drag to see that she was no longer the FAVORITE child. She is the golden girl. College graduate, soccer star, the strongest person there is. A lot of ups and downs though over the years. A lot of heartache, through all I know she is the person to count on. As we remember, here is a great story of the Bride and her sister. Lets go back to when my mouth was wired shut. The smell and look of food just was not appealing. Everything had to be blended. Becca would always take one for the team and try it first. Tacos? YUP- Blended and she tried them to see what it would taste like. If that is not love what is?
Bridesmaid
Older sister of the bride. Krystena gave me my first and favorite niece. Though there has been many tough times, she has never given up and has always defeated the odds on what people think of her. She is no ordinary sister. Krystena is someone who would stand up and defend her family. She never gave up. There are not to many stories to share, the ones I can is the many sleep overs we would have in the basement, the sharing the bedroom, and of course the sister rivalry. She was the brides driver for the longest time before she got her license. As sister though, we do what we can to DRIVE the other one insane.
Bridesmaid
This is the groom's cousin. The bride had met Stephanie when she went to Quaker Haven. The bride was told that Stephanie was shy, but felt as though they hit it off really well. The bride and Stephanie have talked alot since last year because of the amazing kids. Stephanie is a wonderful mom to Indy and keeps things fun. Stephanie is also really crafty and has helped to make things for our wedding. She was recently in North Caroline (So Jealous would love to go) with Indy seeing family. The bride and flower girl as so excited to have them back and around. Hopefully playdates to come.
Bridesmaid
Groom’s cousin. Madelyn is a social media star. HOW FUN. Madelyn and the groom grew up as neighbors becoming friends. The way that the bride met her for the first time, is she was over hanging with the groom and they walked over to listen to the band practice. Madelyn and her friends were outside by the fire and the bride was asked if she was related to Becca (yes the maid of honor). They said that they knew Becca from school. From there the bride has enjoyed talking to Madelyn when she could.
Junior Bridesmaid
The FAVORITE niece of the Bride. Grace is the bride’s second baby. Grace is athletic (not from the bride), crafty (like the bride), and the most friendliest child around. She is independent and though can be a booger, she will always make you smile. The bride shares many memories with Grace. From helping to raise her, to supporting her and her hobbies. The brides favorite memory of her and her niece are all the date nights out and of course all the shopping sprees.
Flower Girl
The bride’s baby. Sophia is the bride’s daughter. Though she does not usually go by Sophia she goes by SOP! (Yes born from the Dawn dish bottle jk). The hyperness of Sophia will make you look twice. Her ball of energy will keep you going from the time you wake till the time you go to bed. From babies to crafting, to riding her bike. She is the light of the bride and groom's world. One of the favorite things that Sophia likes to do is to play board games. As a family, they try to play games every night- Sophia’s favorite board game at this time is either the Game of Life or Monopoly.
Ring Bearer
The groom’s cousins son. What a cutie he is. Indy is a sweet caring child. Not only is he polite but he is gentle. He loves to drink roopy weer (root beer) whenever he can. He wants nothing more then to play with Sophia when he gets the chance. The kids met on the 4th of July and they became such good friends. Indy will drive your world. He LOVES stuffed animal. Each animal has to have a friend. We love that. Though when not about the stuff animals, he is playing with monster trucks and hot wheels. Through everything this little man smiles and couldn’t be happier.
Best Man
Friend of the groom. Paul and Trevor met through Boy Scouts many moons ago. Not only did they do Boy Scouts together but they ended up completing they Eagle Scouts together which is beyond amazing in the brides opinion. Paul is a union carperter. There will be more to come...
Groomsman
This is a friend of the grooms. Jerick and Trevor met after high school when there was an invite to play dungeons and dragons (DnD). Jerick is one who has always been around for the groom through a majority of the good and bad times. He always tried to support him the best he could. They did fall out of contact due to bad relationships. Reconnected though has never felt better. Not only rekindling their friendship but the restarting of DnD. Jerick does work for Cleveland Cliffs as an apprentice electrician. The biggest reason Jerick feels that these two are friends is because they just get along well and just move along. Jerick is currently calling the groom a boomer.
Groomsman
Friend of the Groom. Mitch and Trevor met through Paul for the fun of playing dungeons and dragons. Mitch always wanted to play though had no one to play with until Trevor kindly let him join. Trevor's dungeons and dragons games allowed Mitch to explore different characters some being; bumbling human wizard, debaucherous half lining pirate, the mischievous and smelly goblin. According to Mitch, Trevor has been a great geek of a guy and is happy to call him his friend. When not playing DnD (once a month), Mitch has a Ph.D. He works at the Norther Illinois University Chemistry Department (how awesome) . He enjoys drinking coffee, and playing the electric bass.
Groomsman
Cousin of the groom. The groom and Tyler grew up next to one another. Tyler is the fourth eldest out of the cousins. Though not getting a long when they were younger, they have grown to be great friends. Tyler enjoys riding his motorcycle and spending time with his beautiful girlfriend Sabrina. Being a leader, Tyler got his motorcycle first which made everyone become followers. What a great way to ride, with family. Tyler is understanding and kind. He will always make sure that you are include especially when it comes to conversations.
