Keeley & Chad
Wedding Party
Janelle Galbraith
Matron of Honor
Yes, you read that right, she beat me down the aisle(; Janelle is Keeley's "oldest younger" sister. She currently lives in Hawaii with her hubby, Keegan, who serves in the U.S. Coast Guard. Fun fact about Janelle: She currently fosters tons of cats and helps to find them their "furever" homes! At this time, she has around 9 cats in her home including one with no eyes, Echo!
Rylee Kading
Maid of Honor
Rylee is Keeley's "middle youngest" sister. Rylee goes to Cros-Lex High School where Keeley went (and left a delightful impression on all the teachers for Rylee). Fun fact about Rylee: she plays sports like nobody's business! Between softball, volleyball, and basketball, shes always on the go!
Shaylee Kading
Maid of Honor
Shaylee is Keeley's youngest sister. She also just started at Cros-Lex High School where hopefully Rylee has saved the Kading name for her! Fun fact about Shaylee: Not only is she a sports superstar like Rylee, she also ratted Keeley out to her parents when she kissed a boy down in their basement....Payback is coming (;
Patrick Banta
Best Man
Patrick (Pat) is Chad's best friend. Chad and Pat met during their years at Ferris when Chad actually fixed Pat's computer (unsuccessfully). Even though Chad couldn't fix the computer, that sparked a friendship that has stayed strong to this day.
Jeremy Wilson
Best Man
Jeremy (JJ) and Chad have been friends since high school and they both went to Ferris State University. Although they majored in different things, their friendship stayed strong. JJ's favorite memory with Chad (aside from all the weekend get-togethers in Chad's barn in high school) was actually right after their Ferris graduation when they all had a bonfire. JJ says he knew at that point that no matter what, they'd always be friends.
Alexis Bittner
Bridesmaid
Alexis (Lexi) is one of Keeley's best friends since middle school! They actually met on the bus ride home and bonded over their love for Johnny Depp. They also found out shortly after that their parents were also great friends during high school, small world! Lexi's favorite (legal) memory with Keeley is when they went to Frankenmuth for Keeley's birthday (even though she was sick as a dog) and spilling red cough syrup all over the white bedspread. They somehow never fail to make a mess while their together!
Jessi Quandt
Bridesmaid
Jessi is also one of Keeley's best friends since middle school. Fun fact: Jessi didn't like Keeley at first because Keeley wore a pair of fake glasses to school...rude. Jessi and Keeley also did CL5 together (early college program) so when Keeley got her license they always rode to class together. Well one day, Keeley needed to take her car through the car wash on their way to class which ultimately made Jessi freak out and cry because she has a phobia of car washes....you learn something knew everyday!
Heather Renfroe
Bridesmaid
Heather is Keeley's future sister-in-law. She is married to groomsman Kody and is mom to ring bearer Blake and flower girls Tessa and Avery. She and Keeley like to bond over their love of crafting and Cricuts!
Ryan Meddaugh
Groomsman
Ryan and Chad have been friends since high school and they both attended Ferris State University. Ryan was also a regular attendant at Chad's weekly barn soirees and he hasn't been able to shake Chad yet. Chad was even a groomsman for Ryan in his wedding last year!
Kody Renfroe
Groomsman
Kody is Chad's brother-in-law and husband to Heather. He is also dad to Blake, Tessa, and Avery. Kody has been apart of Chad's life since high school and Chad was apart of Heather and Kody's wedding as well!
