Wedding Party
Rachael Krzewina
Matron of Honor
The bride's sister "I've known Angela her entire life and I'm happy to say that we have never been closer. In addition to being my younger sister, she has been my best friend for many years now. She is the first person I call when I have news to share and my favorite person to go to Target with. She was my maid of honor and I'm so happy to return the favor."
Ryan Houfek
Best Man
The groom's brother "I met Patrick on January 3rd, 1992. He was just born and I had spent the past two days watching nothing but the same Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles movie on repeat (the only movie my Aunt Alma and Uncle Ronnie had). I've spent the rest of our time together protecting him (from people like the guy who tried to steal his bike in 1st grade) and looking out for him. Except for Little Tyke's b-ball games in the basement...I destroyed him"
Alicia Obermeier
Bridesmaid
The bride's sister "As Angela's younger sibling, I constantly followed her around throughout our childhood. No matter what she was doing, I somehow always got myself involved to be around her. When I met Patrick for the first time, I finally learned that he'd take my place and follow her around instead. I'm incredibly happy to have Patrick join our family. He can really keep his 'cool' in the 'heat' of situations"
James Kay
Groomsman
The groom's cousin "We've been buds since I was born 8 months after him - both our birthdays are on the 2nd. He's like the older brother I never had and always has my back. I knew he was cool when he let me play with his G.I. Joes. He'd always say, "it's not a doll, it's an action figure"
Jessica McKenzie
Bridesmaid
The bride's sister "I met Angela when Angela was born. We have been sisters ever since. From tolerating Angela perform extended songs and skits for the family every single Christmas, to splitting a bean burrito from Taco Bell at the mall each week while talking about boys, to having a Snapchat face swap that made us nearly impossible to tell apart, Angela and I have had many adventures together. I can't wait to share in the next adventure -- Angela and Patrick's wedding!"
Andy Krzewina
Groomsman
The bride's brother-in-law "I've known Pat for over five years. When I heard he was a hunter, I knew we'd get along. Ever since then, we have developed a great friendship. Can't wait to have him officially be part of the family."
Courtney Ertel
Bridesmaid
The bride's cousin "I've known Angela my entire life. Ever since we were young, we were inseparable. From sleepovers every weekend, to working our first job together, and then being roommates in college. She has always been my built-in best friend and the person I've told everything to. I'm so excited for Angela and Pat and I can't wait to celebrate their big day!"
Steve Vangrinsven
Groomsman
The groom's friend “I've known Pat pretty much my entire life, longer than I can remember. When we were growing up, I would spend more time with him and his family than I did my own. From countless hours in the basement, to the many weekends up north, we have made a lot memories I will never forget. I will always be there for him, and I know he will always be there for me.”
Kylie Lackore
Bridesmaid
The bride's friend "It started as a forced acquaintance and blossomed into a fulfilling friendship enduring through thick and thin with uncontrollable laughter."
Tyler Beckman
Groomsman
The groom's friend "I met Pat in the second grade and woke him up at our first sleepover at 6 a.m. cracking a Mountain Dew and singing "Fruit Salad" along with the Wiggles. Since then, we've crushed more fruit snacks and Super Strykers than anyone else. Angela is SO much better for Pat's health and I couldn't be happier for them!"
Abby Heuring
Bridesmaid
The bride's friend "I met Angela in middle school but we did not become close friends until the end of our senior year of high school when we were both dating boys on the Appleton West Soccer team. Since then we have spent thousands of hours making each other laugh, singing songs, and talking only to each other at parties. Angela and Pat are two of my favorite people and I’m so honored to be a part of their big day!"
Ryan Munger
Groomsman
The groom's friend "Pat and I played soccer together in high school. Through the years, Pat has proven to be an even better friend than just a teammate. Abby and I have had countless memorable double dates with Pat and Angela. I am so happy for the both of them! They've come so far since I helped introduce them 10 years ago."
Kelsey Allen
Bridesmaid
The bride's friend "I've been friends with Angela since third grade. Since then we've made all kinds of memories from photo-bombing hundreds of people to being roommates in college to failed attempts at being YouTube superstars to now being in her wedding! We share a "unique" sense of humor which makes any situation we're in fun."
Grant Pierce
Groomsman
The groom's friend "I first met Patrick early in high school. Since then, he has been nothing short of a great friend willing to go above and beyond without expecting anything in return. Although always being one of the quieter guys in the room, he has always been the focal point of the group. Some of my fondest memories were spent with P-Toots and the Houfeks. Let's ride!"
Nicole Kuberra
Bridesmaid
The groom's cousin "I met Angela when Patrick first brought her up to our family cottage. Being an only child and having only older male cousins, I was thrilled to have another girl to hang out with. 10 years later, Angela is like a sister to me, and I go to her for anything and everything. I am so excited to have her officially join the family."
Jake Bunno
Groomsman
The groom's friend "Pat and I became friends early in high school. Ever since, our friendship has been deeply rooted in competition. This ranged from who got the best score on a test in Bowman the snowman's class, shooting contests from the blue line in basketball practice, and me beating him handily at various games. Putting aside how often I win, I look up to Pat for being the best dog dad and molding cheeseburger Eddie Lacy into the wonderful pup she has become. I've known Pat and Angela from the beginning of their relationship and am lucky to call them both great friends! Looking forward to celebrating the two of them on this special day!"
Forest McKenzie
Usher
The bride's brother-in-law "Over the 15 years I've known Angela, she has always been super positive and funny. I've watched her excel through school and find Pat--her perfect match. I've loved seeing her become even more positive and funny with him. They both bring out the best in each other, and I can't wait for their wedding!"
Tanner Taves
Usher
The groom's friend “Pat and I grew up just a few blocks from each other and have been friends since elementary school. Through the years we’ve spent many hours gaming, hunting, and fishing together. He has always been generous with time with friends. Looking forward to taking part in Pat and Angela’s special day, it’s been a long time coming and they’ve earned it.”
