Meghan & Austin
Wedding Party
Emma Luczkowski
Maid of Honor
Emma is the bride's little sister (in real life). When they were younger they had a typical sibling relationship (Meghan pulled her arm out the socket, Emma moved to the bathroom etc etc...), but going to college just 10 minutes apart truly brought them closer together. Now they consider each other "best sister friends". They can frequently be seen walking around like a pterodactyl, antagonizing their mom, and working out together. Emma claims she is "the best sister ever".
Josh Hobson
Best Man
Austin met Josh the first minute he was on campus at the University of Evansville. Having similar interests in many things, most notably sports, they naturally became best friends. At UE, Josh introduced Austin to Sigma Phi Epsilon, and he credits Josh for being one of the main reasons he was able to find such a strong connection in the fraternity.
Cassie Cripe
Bridesmaid
Cassie is Meghan's grade school best friend. They met in the first grade where Meghan used to chase Cassie around the playground at recess (for some reason). They were teachers' pets in 2nd grade and grew up playing soccer and hanging out in the same social circle throughout high school. Despite being in separate states for the past 7 years, they're friendship remains unchanged.
Trevor Mullen
Groomsman
A sophomore at UE when Austin was a freshman, Trevor and Austin had an instant connection over baseball. Austin continues to attend Cardinal games to this day with Trevor, but maybe his best memory was his freshman year spring break when Trevor promised absolutely nothing was wrong with the beer bong he gave to Josh.
Courtney Newsome
Bridesmaid
Courtney and Meghan met during freshman year at the University of Evansville. They had many classes together freshman year and shared a major but didn't really become friends until the day Meghan passed out on Courtney in health class. Since then, Meghan and Courtney have been best friends and roommates conquering undergrad and PT school together as partners in crime frequently quoting "Old Greg" and "Bon Qui Qui".
Caden Cibulka
Groomsman
Caden is Austin's younger brother. Caden helped shape much of Austin's life growing up through the end of grade school and high school. Austin vividly remembers taking Caden to their local grade school's empty basketball gym nearly every weekend. Austin can't wait to watch Caden's future unfold in high school and beyond.
Jordayn Jargstorf
Bridesmaid
Meghan and Jordayn met during the first summer of PT school at UE in their gross anatomy lab group. They instantly bonded over [the cadaver] their love for shopping, cheesy chick flick movies and quickly became running/workout buddies. Jordayn even convinced Meghan to run her first half marathon. Meghan can only hope that she can give half the amount of love to Austin that Jordayn has for Jimmy Johns.
Alex Gould
Groomsman
Alex was one of Austin's first friends he met at the University of Evansville. As freshmen, Alex and Austin delivered an improbable campaign (bought pizzas the night before for the freshman residence hall) to becoming President and Vice President of the freshmen class. Alex and Austin both share an extreme love for watching sports and talking baseball.
Lexi Cibulka
Bridesmaid
Lexi is Austin's older sister and best friend growing up as a kid. Austin remembers watching Air Bud and Remember the Titans on repeat with Lexi during the summer when school was on break. Some of his favorite memories include dressing up their golden retriever (Cinnamon) to look like Air Bud and taking weekly trips to the neighborhood convenience store. Lexi currently lives in St. Louis and loves the Cardinals as much as Austin, if that is even possible.
Jarrod Maslin
Groomsman
Jarrod and Austin didn't become close friends until later in Austin's freshman year at UE. Jarrod was a senior when Austin was a freshman, but Jarrod went on to spend 3 additional years on campus as a graduate student in Physical Therapy. Jarrod and Austin share a similar love for lesser known musical artists. Austin remembers staying up late at night trying to learn Chinese with Jarrod while studying for separate classes in the third floor library at UE.
Elaina Robinson
Bridesmaid
Elaina is Meghan's big sister in ZTA. The two met while playing on the same intramural soccer team during Meghan's freshman year. Elaina has been a role model for Meghan since joining ZTA: introducing her to many of Meghan's now life-long friends and ensuring that Meghan is always open to have a good time ;).
Dillon Powers
Groomsman
Dillon and Austin became close friends shortly after Austin arrived on campus at UE as a freshman. They quickly bonded over basketball and creative house pranks. Austin remembers Dillon's 6'1 frame out rebounding just about every opponent in intramural basketball. Austin still gives credit to Dillon and himself for revolutionizing the "you won't" phrase before it quickly became over used.
Brittney Wright
Bridesmaid
Brittney is Meghan's little sister in ZTA and former roommate. Brittney and Meghan share a love for many things including puppies, sushi, and spending weekends at the Sig Ep house! Brittney and Meghan did many things through ZTA together that put Meghan outside her comfort zone like Sigep-a-go-go and Bike Race!
Corey Cannon
Groomsman
Being two of the few from St. Louis, Corey and Austin had an instant connection when they met at UE. Among many other things, Corey is known for his ability to tell an above average joke on demand. Austin's sophomore year spring break in South Padre when Corey's 'uh huh' phrase was born will forever live on.
Abbey Dalla
Bridesmaid
Abbey and Meghan met through ZTA. Abbey and Meghan got a lot closer during their senior year, traveling to Florida and celebrating Abbey's own engagement extravaganza. Abbey introduced Meghan to Fuzzy's Tacos and her life has never been the same since <3. The two hare a love of puppies, potatoes, and planning!
Christian Germonprez
Groomsman
When Austin was a sophomore at UE, he met Christian at a residence hall cookout. Christian and Austin bonded over bike riding on SigEp's bike race team. Christian now lives with Austin in St. Louis while he works on completing his masters degree from Missouri Baptist University. Christian holds the unofficial world record for quickest to chug 12 ounces of liquid.
Dylan Brooks
Usher
Dylan and Austin met at UE when Dylan was a freshman. One of Austin's most memorable stories was when Dylan was part of a mysterious investigation at the fraternity house. In addition to that, Austin and Dylan played nearly every single intramural sport possible for their fraternity. Dylan currently lives in Evansville, Indiana, where he one day may become the mayor.
Brayden Edwards
Usher
Austin and Brayden met the summer before Brayden’s freshman year at UE (thanks to Meghan who said hey Austin meet Brayden and then disappeared for 4 hours). Often times their competitiveness clashes, no better example than when Austin bet Brayden he would be 100 games up on him in 1 on 1 basketball before Austin turns 60 years old. Austin quickly was ahead of pace for the first few years, but he has slipped a bit as both have moved away from campus.
Justin Carey
Usher
Justin and Austin met as freshmen at UE. The two both majored in Mechanical Engineering and were a part of the same fraternity. Justin and Austin lived together for several years at SigEp with Nasib and both raced (and took home first place) in the annual Bike Race for the fraternity every year they were in college. Justin has an unusual love for cars - his current count of cars probably take up more square footage than his home.
Nasib Al Haffar
Usher
Austin and Nasib met at UE as freshmen. Both lived together with Justin for several years and graduated with engineering degrees. There are many stories from their college days involving Austin and Nasib - maybe none better than the time Nasib was wearing sandals when running shoes were probably the better choice (feel free to ask Nasib what happened).
Ryan and Nora Mirkin
Flower Girl
Ryan and Nora are Meghan's twin cousins. They are 4 years old and full of life and sass. They'll be real-life princesses during the ceremony and tearing up the dance floor at the reception!
Adam Beutelmann
Ring Bearer
Adam is Austin’s cousin and God son. Adam does his best to stay up to speed with his 3 older siblings. Adam loves to show off his cool fish pond at his new house and run all over the house with his dog.
