Chelsey & Matt
Wedding Party
Ashley Avery
Maid of Honor
Ashley is Chelsey's oldest sister. Ashley and Chelsey share a similar passion for many things: techno, puppies, boho style, teaching, and horror movies. Chelsey and Ashley continue to try and persuade one another to move closer to the other. Hopefully one day they will end up in the same town, but, until then, Chelsey and Ashley will remain extremely close regardless of the distance.
Jessica Avery
Maid of Honor
Jessica and Chelsey were always mistaken as twins growing up. They did everything together, and they continue to find ways to visit each other often even with 7 hours between them. Jessica and Chelsey both share a love for fitness and the great outdoors, so, naturally, Jessica is currently working on getting Chelsey to join in on her backpack adventures; Chelsey and Matt can't wait for this new endeavor!
Nicolette Griesinger
Bridesmaid
Nicolette is Matthew's sister and Chelsey's future sister! Nicolette and Chelsey have so much in common - from soccer to teaching to being forced to laugh at Matt's daily jokes - so it was only natural that they would get along so well. Nicolette has welcomed Chelsey into the family since the first time they met, so Chelsey is ecstatic to be gaining such an amazing husband, sister, and family in her life!
Josh King
Best Man
Matt was Josh's assistant coach at Dixon High School when Matt lived in North Carolina. In one season, they totaled 20 wins, a conference championship, and a trip to the Final Four. Josh and Matt continue to bond over high school soccer and both act as each other's unofficial long-distance assistant coach.
Brandon Silva
Groomsman
Matt and Brandon played soccer together at BGSU where they totaled 27 wins. While forever teammates, they remain bitter miniature golf adversaries.
Mitch Taplin
Groomsman
Matt and Mitch have been coaching the TC West Titans for the last three years where they have amassed a total of 48 wins, 3 conference titles, and 2 district crowns. Mitch is Matt's driving range partner and this wedding's chief cake taster.
