Wedding Party

Brittany Nurnberger

Matron of Honor

Brittany is one of my oldest friends, dating back to our middle school days. Throughout high school we were inseparable. I chose to attend college out of state, and soon we both had moved on out of Ohio and moved across the country (multiple times) but throughout the years have been able to maintain our friendship. Brittany is the type of friend I could call at the drop of a hat (but am horrible at calling and should do it more often) and can pick up right where we left off, even after years of not seeing each other. I can’t imagine someone who knows me better than Britt and for that she’s earned the MOH spot. I've heard it said that if you have a friend for at least 10 years - you'll keep them for life. Here's to 17 years and counting!

Best Man

Lauren Merritt

Bridesmaid

I have known Lauren since her day one. As my little sister, I remember the constant arguments over clothes/jewelry/makeup being stolen and looking back I'll take it as a compliment to my awesome fashion sense ha! While similar in our sporting interests, I'm glad she didn't try to copy her older sister and developed her own style and path. I can always count on her to answer the phone when I need to know how to cut an onion or the best remedy for sore muscles. It's actually the big sister looking up to the little sister when it comes to fitness - I can't imagine ever running a marathon or Ironman and she does them on the regular! While we have our differences and distance, one thing that will always remain is our love for Big Red!!

Amy Kamwendo

Bridesmaid

I met Amy my freshman year of college during ear training class. From day one there was no question we would form such a unique and dear friendship. From ear training to being roommates, the memories are endless. Among the memories, the best is probably the alarm while roommates. Amy struggled a lot getting out of bed and to class, so we found that "Eye of the Tiger" by Survivor was the only alarm that would work. Though we've lived many hours apart since college, Amy is a dear dear friend. She is the most loving, forgiving and gracious friend anyone could ask for. After getting to stand beside her on her wedding day, I'm honored to have her beside me on mine.

Erica Derr

Bridesmaid

From the day we met- we were meant to be friends. While working the front desk work at a salon just a mile down the road from my apartment, I immediately hit it off with Erica and loved her sweet personality and bubbliness. In talking and being invited over to watch The Bachelor, I quickly learned I only lived steps from her place. This was great for me (not sure if Erica and Charlie would say the same ha). You know you have a true friend when you can walk across the parking lot, go inside and head straight to the kitchen and they’ve stocked up on your fav snacks! We remained close friends throughout my time in Nebraska and have been able to experience some epic girls trips together. Lucky to have my travel buddy, hair stylist and friend beside me on my big day!

Hailee Chastain

Bridesmaid

While I have known Hailee the shortest amount of time, we were meant to be friends. As a fellow Northern girl, we hit it off and developed a friendship quickly and it felt like a little piece of home. We’ve already had many adventures together and I’m sure many more are to come. I’m honored to have to my hiking, 5k running, travel buddy standing next to me on my big day (if there’s something that goes wrong that day- I have no doubt she’ll handle it)
