Liz & Logan on the lake
Wedding Party
Ashley Angeletti
Maid of Honor
Ashley has been one of my best friends since she moved back to Portage Lakes from Virginia in 2008. We have bonded over our love of Portage Lakes and our daily cruises down Lahm road. She is a truly amazing friend I am lucky to have!
Maddi Klemp
Maid of Honor
Maddi and I have been friends since 5th grade but blossomed into best friendship after high school. She and I can be hundreds of miles apart and still feel as close as sisters. No one can make me laugh or truly understands me as deeply as her. Because I am SO BLESSED to have 2 perfect best friends I can’t see any better option than for them to walk arm and arm down the isle as a team of loyal and loving Maids of Honor ❤️ #Jeep
Ashley Turner
Bridesmaid
My sister and her husband Mike have been married for about 6 years so She knows exactly what planning a wedding is all about! She has been such a huge help during these past couple of months. Ashley, Marty and I are all just about a year apart in age which has brought us through some crazy teenage years and some really fun memories. I’m so happy to have both of my siblings standing by my side as I marry the Log of my life!
Alyssa Angeletti
Bridesmaid
Alyssa is Ashley’s sister! We have always been close because of the friendship her sister and I share. We both moved to Cleveland about 2 years ago and that’s really when our friendship blossomed. We have shared some really amazing memories together enjoying Dave Mathews concerts, exploring the west side of Cleveland and Sunday brunches. I would absolutely be having less fun in Cleveland if it wasn’t for my Alyssa!
Sebrina Fox
Bridesmaid
Sebrina and I went through a lot of crazy times in the 5 years we worked together at Sephora. We always have so much fun together whether we are getting dirty on a hike or putting on body glitter and flash tattoos. She has truly inspired me to be the Makeup Artist I am today as well as set the standard for how to be a perfectly put-together woman. I also had the honor of standing by her side as she got married!
Bill Menz
Father of the Bride
My dad has done such an amazing job raising us and we are so lucky to have him! If you haven’t met him, make sure you do, he is a great time! He has set a great standard for the type of men I invite into my life. I see a lot of his amazing qualities in Logan which is why I fell in love with him. I feel very lucky to have my dad be such a big part of my life and even luckier to have him give me away at my wedding!
Christine Menz
Mother of the Bride
My mom and I have a very close relationship. I have learned so much about life and love through her. She has taught me invaluable skills on how to make a house a home, shared her passion for cooking with me and showed me how to cultivate a beautiful garden, among many other things. We are lucky to have a relationship that is not only mother/ daughter but a deep friendship as well. I have always been able to share all my secrets and problems with her and she always has the best advice. I’m very Blessed to call her mom.
Cory Roberts
Best Man
Cory is my cousin. Most people that know him call him Big Man. If you saw him, you'd get it. Unfortunately, he won't be able to make the wedding, as he will be at another wedding in Ireland on the same day! I have known him my whole life. We have created countless memories together, from playing sports as little kids, to being in numerous bands, to recording songs at a studio, to playing live shows in garages, basements, and backyards. He has always been there for me, whether a word of advice, or just a good laugh. I'll miss him at my wedding, but it ain't everyday you get a chance to go to Ireland. Cheers buddy!
Sam Schiltz
Best Man
Sam and I met in high school freshman year. I could not believe a guy with his haircut could be remotely good at golf, so we golfed. We then got into Third Eye Blind and playing guitar. We used to jam in the basement of my parents house after school. We have been teammates on the Hornets, roommates at the Sumner St. Gentleman's Club, concert buddies at too many shows to name, but most importantly, we've been always stayed friends. I've probably gotten into more trouble with Sam then anyone else, which is why I call him my best friend.
Jake DeLuca
Groomsman
Jake and I have been friends since grade school. We played baseball for years on the Green Hornets. We had video journalism together in high school which yielded many good times. Jake moved to Cleveland around the time I moved to Westlake. Over the past few years we've become had many great times together and have become great friends. And somehow, he has had the time to become a great golfer aka the nickname Mr. 73.
Martin Menz
Groomsman
Marty is Liz's older brother. I met Marty when I first started seeing Liz, nearly 7 years ago. We got along great, and have since had many laughs. I had the pleasure of going to Florida with Liz's family lats year. It truly is a sight to behold seeing a family on a vacation when the kids are in their late 20's. The car rides were hilarious. Marty may be becoming my brother-in-law, but I'll always refer to him as a friend first.
David Gibson
Groomsman
I met Dave when he moved into the house next door to my parents when I was in 5th grade. We instantly became great friends. I remember Dave's first car, and driving to Stow to go visit Big Man. We bonded over Gears of War and Halo 2. We used to sit in his basement and play video games until we couldn't keep our eyes open. We kept in touch throughout college, and I went to visit Dave when he lived in Chicago. I was honored to be a groomsman in Dave's wedding. Throughout the 20 years we have known each other, we've always kept in touch, and we've always been great friends.
Tyler Miller
Groomsman
I met Tyler at basketball camp when I was a young lad. He went to a different school, but he lived in my neighborhood. We played on many basketball teams together. When Tyler got his license, he used to drive me to school. Those days of riding in the Jeep were filled with many laughs, and great memories. We even went to Ohio University together. I only lasted 10 weeks, but those 10 weeks I'll never forget. Throughout all the years, we bonded over sports, and cars. Even though he lives in Tampa Bay, we still talk every week when we're playing Fortnite.
Justin D. McCarty
Father of the Groom
If I ever have any question about anything, the first person to call is my dad. We all look up to our parents and think they know everything, and can solve every problem. As I got older, I have realized most adults are like kids; just going along hoping they get it right. However, Justin has yet to get it wrong. (Except his golf swing!) Over the years, we've become great friends. We've had our differences, but we have gotten through all of them without any permanent scars. We share a passion for guitar and sports, which both have gotten us through some rough times. As an adult, it is great to be able to call my dad one of my best friends.
Ann McCarty
Mother of the Groom
My mom is truly one of the greatest women I have ever known. She always put her kids before her own needs. She used to let our band practice in our basement, she used to drive me to sporting events, and even concerts. She never once complained. One of my favorite memories of my mom is when she would call me to let me know a Van Halen song was on the radio. She is one of the few people who knows me better than I know myself.
