Michael & Megan
Wedding Party
Mackenzie Woodard
Maid of Honor
Mackenzie is the best little sister I could ever ask for and I couldn't think of a better person to be my Maid of Honor. She is currently a student at Minnesota State and a star runner for their track team. Mackenzie has always been outgoing and the life of the party. She also just turned 21, so if you get the chance you should buy her a drink because she is finally legal! Everyone loves Mackenzie, but nobody loves her as much as me!
Rachel Menke
Bridesmaid
Rachel has been my best friend since high school. Rachel and I met in junior high while on the junior high swim team. Rachel was there for our entire relationship, and may have persuaded Michael to date me in the beginning. Rachel is a kind and funny person and I am honored to have her standing next to me on my big day!
Alison Elsbernd
Bridesmaid
Alison and I met freshman year of college at Iowa State while living on the 10th floor of Wilson Hall. We became instant friends and then became roommates for the next 3 years. Alison was there through our entire relationship and we are so happy that she is going to stand next to us on our big day!
Crystal Mensen
Bridesmaid
Crystal and I also met on the 10th floor of Wilson Hall during our freshman year of college at Iowa State. Crystal has been a great friend through the years and was also an awesome roommate for the last 3 years at Iowa State. I couldn't have made it through college without her and I am so happy that she is going to be there on our big day!
Allison Smith
Personal Attendant
Allison and I met at our job at Balance Autism. I have gotten to know her very well the past year and a half that I have worked there and she is the most wonderful friend. Allison is the kindest person you will ever meet! I am so happy that she will be with me and help me through one of the best days of my life.
Ryan Lamparek
Best Man
Ryan has been my brother since birth. I look up to him so much and he has given me a countless amount of advice. I can't imagine what my life would be like without my big brother and I can't imagine having anyone else right by my side as I get married.
Jesse Hynek
Groomsman
Jesse has been my friend the longest out of the groomsmen. He is the type of friend that I can always count on to be honest and straight forward with me. Over the years and on multiple occasions we have done a good job of being the voice of reason for each other when we may have wanted to get into "altercations" with some rather "annoying" people. We are excited to have him up there with us as we get married.
Keegan Parizek
Groomsman
Keegan and I have always been sounding boards for each other when life advice is needed. What should be a 5 minute phone conversation for most people usually ends up being an hour and I don't have a problem with that. He is always in for a good time and makes sure that everyone else is too. Maybe too good *cough* fireball incident *cough*. I am grateful he is going to be up there with us as we get married.
Eric Woods
Groomsman
Woody is the king of one liners and you will always make sure you are either laughing or shaking your head at him while also laughing. He is the type of friend that will always help a buddy out without thinking twice. I am very happy that Woody will be providing some much needed comic relief the day of the wedding.
Matt Jones
Groomsman
Matt recently moved to Des Moines which has given us an excuse to perfect our golf, billiard, and drinking skills a couple times a week. Just a few sessions away from going pro... It has also given me plenty of chances to vent about work while getting my ass kicked at 8-ball. Looking forward to having him at our wedding!
Casey Lamparek
Usher
Casey is my cousin and has been trying to convince me to become an Iowa fan ever since I decided to go to Iowa State. I am happy he agreed to be an Usher for us despite us going to the better school. Go State!
Keegan Lamparek
Usher
Keegan is also my cousin and we were always close growing up because I also knew the "joys" of having an older brother. I am so happy to have him as a part of my wedding party!
