Randi & Tanner
Wedding Party
Riley Durbano
Maid of Honor
Randi and Tanner's best friend from Palmer. When Randi asked Riley to be the maid of honor there was discussion about her renting a suit and also being the best man. Riley is always there for Randi and always seems to know when she needs a Coors Light or an ice cream sandwich. The three of them (plus Cody) all became friends at the Mississippi Valley Fair two years ago and have remained inseparable since.
Christian Lund
Groomsman
One of Tanner's best friends from elementary school and to this day. Christian was little, Tanner was fat, an alliance was formed and that is that. The rest is history. From elementary school to waking up at four in the morning in high school to go throw watermelons for work. They ramped the railroads and took Tanner's bonneville down the level B's a little too fast to see if they could "catch air"; if one was there the other was near by. Tanner was never worried though because if he knew he broke it Christian could probably fix it too.
Lucy Holms
Bridesmaid
One of Randi's best friends from Iowa State. Never one to shy away from a good IPA, a fishing adventure, or a karoke night. Her and Randi's similar mountain tattoos were the starting conversation for their friendship.
Drew Larion
Groomsman
Tanner and Drew became friends in middle school when Tanner first came to Durant. Drew was the calm to Tanner's anxious. Drew is the one that never failed to remind Tanner what happens, happens, and it will be alright. This would become pretty helpful in the years to come. Drew is the free spirit of the four high school best friends, and the one whose house the boys would crash at quite often. It would also be where Tanner earned his infamous name from Heth, Drew's father, of the "Barf Bandit".
Kristen McEvoy
Bridesmaid
Another one of Randi's best friends from Iowa State. Her and Randi bonded over being orientation leaders at Iowa State and shared many mug nights together in college. A true friend with the greenest thumb!
Brandon Dykes
Groomsman
Tanner and Brandon also became friends in middle school when he moved schools. They bonded through football and wrestling. They always pushed each other to be better, sometimes with the pushes becoming physical. Through it all they have remained best friends and are always there for each other. Tanner will also state he is the better monopoly player, but Brandon will argue he is the better of the two. Over the past summers, game night became popular and the two quickly returned to their competitive ways.
Kim Ferguson
Bridesmaid
Another one of Randi's best friends from college. Her and Randi met while spending the entire summer together working as Orientation leaders at Iowa State. To this day they still share a mutual love for Iowa State and are some of the biggest tailgater's you'll ever meet. A true heart of gold!
Cody Larsen
Groomsman
Tanner and Cody became friends while both are currently attending Palmer. Most would think they met in class but, more often than not, in their first three trimesters you would find them on the dance floor. They commonly saw each other, pointed at the other, and bought the other a beer all without actually ever knowing each other's name. In comes Randi and the great Mississippi Valley Fair. The two actually learned each others names and have conquered many dance floors since.
Haley Speth
Bridesmaid
Tanner's sister and Randi's soon to be sister-in-law. Haley and Randi met at a family wedding when Randi met the entire family in one evening (30+ people!) Haley has always been the biggest supporter of Randi and Tanner's relationship and has accepted Randi with open arms as her own sister. Also mom to three of the cutest kiddos around!
Justin Speth
Groomsman
Tanner and Justin met sometime before Justin became Tanner's brother in law. From there, they learned more about each other and how each other were as people. One of Tanner's favorite things he's learned about Justin is that he loves to smoke food. Tanner's other favorite thing is that Justin always makes sure Tanner has enough to eat and always send him home with a bag of leftovers. The two have grown closer over the years and have become even more like brothers.
Kynlee Speth
Flower Girl
One of the two kiddos throwing flowers down the aisle. The oldest of three whom you'll rarely ever find without a smile on her face!
Brett Henningsen
Usher
Tanner and Brett go way back. Basically straight out of the respective wombs way back. If it was the weekend, one or the other was asking to stay at the others house. Over the countless years they made many memories and are the self proclaimed favorite grandchildren.
Gentry Speth
Flower Girl
The other kiddo throwing flowers down the aisle. With her red hair it's only fitting to find her with a devious little grin on her face at all times.
Bill Ross
Usher
Tanner and Bill met and became good friend at Iowa State. Although Tanner was only there for a year they have remained close. They continue to travel with the same group of guys from that year to many Iowa State bowl games. It was the best of luck that Tanner and Torrey ended up across from Bill and James. Add in Rob and Nate and countless memories were made. Although they are similar in age, Bill is someone Tanner has looked up to since meeting and Tanner would say is one of the greatest people you could ever meet.
Stetson Speth
Ring Bearer
Stetson is a baby, he doesn't do to much. He is however the cutest little old man looking chonky baby around.
Charbel Medlej
Assistant to the Flower Girls/Ring Bearer (AKA Kid Wrangler)
Tanner and Charbel first met when Tanner came to undergrad at Palmer. Tanner joined the rugby team and Charbel was one of the many guys that took Tanner under their wing. Charbel has been there for many moments including Tanner's 21st birthday and through getting to know Randi. Tanner and Charbel have remained good friends as Charbel is now engaged to Riley, the maid of honor, as well. Outside of chiropractic and Rugby, the two have been on many trips together, worked together, and have been known to shoot the occasional roman candle at one another.
