Wedding Party
Jenna Kriley
Maid of Honor
Jenna is my sister and maid of honor. She is my built-in best friend. Her wittiness always makes me laugh. She is currently in medical school at LECOM. I am grateful she is able to step away from school for the weekend to be a part of my wedding.
Amara Lewandowski
Bridesmaid
Amara and I met at Butler County Community College and played basketball together. Funny enough, Amara met her husband Justice and I met Josh playing basketball at BC3 as well. Amara is a great friend - thoughtful, kind, loyal. I am so thankful for our friendship.
Maddy Hess
Bridesmaid
Maddy and I have been friends since junior high. We attended school together from there on through our graduate physician assistant program where we also lived together. Maddy is goofy and always making everyone laugh. This friendship has been such a blessing to me.
Steph Malobicky
Bridesmaid
Steph and I met ten years ago when her family moved from Texas to Pittsburgh and she joined my soccer team. We instantly became friends and we have only gotten closer with time. Steph is always making people laugh, she cares a lot about those close to her, and she is an amazing friend to have.
Kennedy Martinez
Bridesmaid
Kennedy is Josh's longest friend. They have a very "brother-sister" type relationship. They may not always admit it, but we all know they do really care about each other. I am glad that I have gotten to get to know Kennedy more since dating Josh. We are both happy to have Kennedy in our lives and our wedding ceremony.
Izzy and Selma Brien
Junior Bridesmaids
We are so happy to have Izzy and Selma, Josh’s cousins, join us as junior bridesmaids! Selma is the strongest and most resilient little girl I know. One of my favorite things about having dinner with her family is how she goes around the table and asks everyone, “What was your favorite part of the day?” Izzy is a bit more quiet and reserved, and she is a wonderful big sister to Selma. She’s a little cowgirl who loves riding horses and is also an excellent saxophone performer. I am so honored to watch these two grow into strong young women.
Joseph Knochel
Best Man
Joseph also known to some as Joe (against my mom's wishes). I have had the honor of being Joseph's older brother. I have watched him grow into the great man he is today. He always has a good dad joke lined up to make everyone laugh or think! It is a great privilege to have Joseph as my best man!
Kevin Krause
Best Man
Kevin has been one of my closest friends since junior year of high school. We then ended up going to BC3 together and grew even closer. Over the years Kevin has become like a third son to my parents, and I love seeing the relationship that they have today. Even if I don't say it, I appreciate the support and loyalty that Kevin has always given me!
Colton Rearick (GM)
Groomsman
I became friends with GM sophomore year of high school when he became the general manager of our basketball team, thus the name GM was born. I also lived with GM in Slippery Rock when I attended the university for a semester. GM has been a great loyal friend that has always had the ability to make everyone laugh.
Andrew Mullen
Groomsman
Andrew and I met while playing baseball in second grade. Over the years, our families grew very close, and we became as thick as thieves. Andrew has always been someone I can turn to for advice on any issue, and he has a gift for lightening the mood with his humor. I am incredibly grateful for his friendship.
Wilde Gaiser
Groomsman
I became friends with Wilde when he started dating Kennedy six years ago. At first, I wasn’t sure about him or how he would fit in, but now I can’t imagine our friend group without him. Wilde is a hardworking and loyal guy—whenever I need help, he always has my back. He’s always down to clown and has a goofy side you’d never expect. Words can’t describe how happy I am that Kennedy found him.
Tom Brien
Groomsman
Tom is my cousin, but he’s always been more like an older brother to me. He has been an incredible example for me to follow in every way—from his work ethic to the beautiful family he’s built. Tom represents the kind of man I hope to grow into as I enter marriage. I had the honor of being in his wedding when he and Tracy were married many years ago, and I’m truly honored to return the favor by having him be in mine.
Cooper Brien
Junior Groomsmen
Cooper is my younger cousin, and I have had the privilege of watching him grow up over the past 16 years. I can’t believe he’s already old enough to drive—time has truly flown by. Cooper is currently working toward achieving the highest honor in Boy Scouts, Eagle Scout. I’m so excited to see all that Cooper will accomplish and the man he will continue to become in the future.
Kennedy Dunlay
Flower Girl
Kennedy is always smiling, which makes everyone else smile. She is going to be such a cute flower girl!
