Parents of the Bride
Parents of the Groom
Matron of Honor
I met Katie when I was 11 years old when she started dating my brother, Eric. I knew we'd get along great when she offered to take me shopping, which was pretty cool for 11-year-old me. 15 years later, she's now the greatest sister-in-law a girl could ask for, but oh so much more!
Best Man
My big brother and the best role model I could ask for. I've tried to follow his footsteps in everything (sports, relationships, career) and it's made my life much easier. He's not only a great example for his 3 younger siblings but he's also a great friend. With that being said, the best thing he's given me is two awesome little nephews.
Maid of Honor
My college teammate, and my best friend. We became friends over sharing a bottle of green apple Burnett's (ew) and our friendship has grown through college volleyball, changing cities, relationships, and the list goes on. Words can't describe how much this girl means to me!
Best Man
The man of many nicknames (baby skin, slicky, sideshow bob, etc.). He's the best little brother while even a better friend and I couldn't imagine getting married without him up there with me.
Bridesmaid
Liv and I met at volleyball tryouts before freshman year at Ursuline, and we became pretty inseparable for the entirety of high school! I share many of my greatest memories with her. She's one of the smartest, most fun girls I know, and a friendship that I will ALWAYS cherish.
Groomsman
Our relationship started when we played on the same basketball team at Lakeview High School. We both had a similar game of a below-average jump shot while relying on athleticism to get buckets! Our relationship has continued to grow throughout the years and is one of the best friends a guy could ask for (and the best listener you'll ever meet).
Bridesmaid
The longest lasting friendship of my life! Abby and I met in preschool and our friendship has lasted going through grade school and high school together, and even after moving apart for college and after. One of the best friendships that picks right back up where we left off every single time!
Groomsman
Ryan and I are technically 2nd cousins, but he's been more of a brother than anything. Not many friends get the chance to grow up together in two different periods of life in two totally different places. We were able to do that as little kids in Battle Creek and recent grads in Los Angeles. For 2 years post-college, he and his fiancé, Savanna, kept me around as the third wheel, and I couldn't be happier about it.
Bridesmaid
My suitemate freshmen year of college, until about halfway through the year when I just "had" to move into her room and become her second roommate. That led to three years of being college roommates in our volleyball + gymnast apartment, and building a friendship that I'll cherish forever!
Groomsman
From a young age at St. Joe Elementary, Hunter and I spent a lot of time together. Mostly in the principal's office. We thought the world was going to end when they decided to split Jordan, Hunter and myself into 3 different 1st-grade classrooms. Luckily, we were able to pass 1st grade and maintain our friendship till this day. We got so lucky to find two great women like Kori and Jeannette (his beautiful wife). Maybe's it's our great hair.
Bridesmaid
Mads become one of my first best friends since moving to a new city, Charlotte, after graduating college - us both starting our jobs at Red Ventures during the same summer. She's been on many Moster vacations and was my date to every party pre-Luke. One of the most genuine, loving girls I've ever met!
Groomsman
Dustin and I played baseball together at Northwood University - him being our shortstop and me being an injured pitcher. We also roomed together for my last 2 years there, pretty much-doing everything together. During that time, we really bonded over how much we hated baseball and loved drinking with our teammates/friends. He is Mt. Pleasant, Michigan's finest and one of the easiest guys in the world to be around.
Bridesmaid
My happiness level jumped up three notches when I became Angie's roommate about four years ago, both working at RV and living the Charlotte life. Never met a girl that could make me laugh so hard and we could have fun doing absolutely anything. Truly not sure what I would have done without her these past few of years!
Groomsman
Jordan and his amazing wife Dana took me under their wing my Freshman year of college, and I'm extremely grateful for it because they're amazing people and some of the best friends Kori and I could ask for. Jordan and I have a lot of things in common, but the one thing that really drives our friendship is our ability to never take things for granted. Whether that be with friends, family or even conversations with strangers - we always make it a point to "take it all in".
Bridesmaid
I hate to admit that Luke and Branden, Haley's fiancé and groomsman in our wedding party, are the ones that brought Haley and I together, but they deserve all of the credit. After knowing each other for ~2 years in Charlotte, we started to realize how similar we are and how much fun we have together. She is one of the most genuine and real ladies I've ever met, and I'm so grateful to call her my best friend.
Groomsman
I love Charlotte, and the thing I love most about it is our friend group. Branden and I first met at the girls' work happy hour that we were each separately dragged to. Kori and Haley had worked together for over 2 years and had never hung out. Luckily, Branden and I were able to find each other in the bar that night and we hit it off. We became immediate friends and our love story is history. I love Branden to death and can't wait to continue growing together.
Bridesmaid
Sister-in-law-to-be and an instant friend! So grateful to be marrying into an awesome family, and this girl makes it THAT much better. She's someone I can talk with absolutely anything about and have a blast every time we're together. If having our parents in Cincinnati wasn't enough to give us an itch to move back, Mere, Mark, Crosley & Baylor make it that mush more tempting!
Groomsman
I love being around Mark so much. He's the easiest guy to be with and we've had so many great memories together over the years. I knew he was the one for Meredith (and me) when we first met at a BBQ at his house, drank whiskey together, went out to Mt. Adams and finished up the night by riding in an Uber home barking out of the car like dogs. I think Meredith ended up with us in that Uber but I'm not totally sure because Mark and I were in our own world together.
Bride's Brother
Eric is my oldest brother, and one of the smartest guys I know (don't tell him I said that). Although we're 6 years apart, I've always admired his wittiness, work ethic, and humor -- my mom says he's the funniest in the family. On top of being a loving brother, he's given me a wonderful sister-in-law (my Matron of Honor), my Goddaughter, Rose....and by the time the wedding comes around, they will have added a sweet baby boy to their growing fam.
Bride's Brother
Ryan is my older brother, although growing up I liked to think that I was his same age. Being 4 years older than me, we started new stages of life at the same time - I went to high school when he went to college, same for me going to college and him entering the real world. He's always been the sweetest one in the family, and that's shown more than ever with my beautiful sister-in-law, Rachael, their sweet babies - Chloe, Miles & MacKenzie.
Usher
As much as I love Thomas, I'm extremely grateful for his older brother, Michael, for being willing to go out of his way to become my older brother, Brett’s, first friend when we moved to Battle Creek from Denver. Michael befriending Brett started the beginning of an unbelievable relationship between our families and between Thomas and me. Our relationship started in sports but has grown so far beyond that. We're practically inseparable whenever we're together and it's always filled with smiles.
Usher
A guy with a smile that can light up any room. Our relationship started in kindergarten but continued to grow as we've gotten older. I can't talk about our relationship and not mention the fact that Jordan introduced our family to the magical place of Sanibel Island. We were in 8th grade and at the Battle Creek Applebees where Jordan convinced my Dad to take our family down to Sanibel for spring break. From there, the rest is history.
