Maid of Honor
From meeting at the juvie to becoming roommates and best friends, Erin has been by Kate's side for the last ten years and is the beloved Aunt Gingie to Fergie and Pepper. These two can usually be found at Target or Ulta, or on their respective couches Snapchatting about Teen Mom or Bravo TV. Erin has been a reliable constant for Kate over the last several years and the two have seen each other through good times and bad. Kate can't wait to have Erin creeping under her veil at the wedding!
Best Man
Chris is Mike's big brother, even if he is shorter. Mike is jealous of Chris' ability to maintain a full head of hair but they still enjoy boating and fishing together and playing the occasional round of golf. Chris shows his love for Mike by bringing him Skyline Chili cheese conies every time he comes up to visit and by letting Fergie up on the couch even before Mike allowed Fergie to be up on the couch.
Bridesmaid
Since before Kate can remember, Maria has been a constant in her life. College and careers may have physically moved them apart but these two girls will always have a special bond. Maria has always been a source of reason for Kate and the two have always been able to pick up right where they left off like no time has passed at all. They share a mutual love for 80s music, especially Michael Jackson and Whitney Houston, and spend most of their time laughing together!
Groomsman
Kevin and Mike's friendship blossomed through their mutual friendship with Dave. Kevin and Mike now both work at Firekeeper's Casino in different departments and they have played on pool leagues together for years. Kevin was Mike's roommate for a few years and Kevin is the beloved Uncle Keeeeeev to Fergie and Pepper. Kevin and Kate enjoyed eating Chinese food while Mike worked late shifts and Fergie wishes Uncle Keeeeeev would move back in because she misses his butt scratches dearly.
Bridesmaid
Even though they grew up almost 2,500 miles apart Kate and Cait shared a genetic bond that grew into a friendship that has been strengthened by a mutual love of knitting and true crime and books and shenanigans. These two Murderinos may be cousins by blood, but they are friends by choice. Kate and Mike enjoyed visiting Cait and her Michigander husband, Nick, out in Vegas where the two guys bonded over manly Michigan stuff. Thankfully Nick visits his family here in Michigan so Kate and Cait get to see each other more regularly now!
Groomsman
Mike and Dave met at the pool hall "back in the day" and shortly after their friendship began, Mike sublet a room from Dave at his old apartment. Mike would pay rent by taking Dave to Gun Lake Casino and covering Dave's losses. The two have played hours upon hours of Call of Duty together and Mike and Kate have enjoyed several Fourth of July weekends with Dave and his wife, Ashley... with Kevin and Jared, too!
Bridesmaid
This duo has taken the (Mary) Kate and Ashley dynamic to a whole new level-- growing closer together through career changes, relationships and two of Ashley's babies! Always quick to lend a hand to each other, these two are guaranteed to being laughing and telling you what they want, what they really really want! Ashley's husband Evan is the biggest fan of hugs from Kate in the history of hugs and Kate can usually be found on the floor playing with the dogs whenever she visits the Ziegler homestead.
Groomsman
Mike and Jared met while working together at the pool hall and the two have played on several pool leagues together over the years, along with Kevin and Dave. Kevin, Dave, Jared and Mike have all spent hours playing video games together and Jared was Mike's roommate, too. Even though Jared decided to abandon his Michigan family to move back to Wisconsin, we still love him and look forward each of his visits. Fergie thinks Jared also excels at butt scratches.
