Natalie & Jonathan
Wedding Party
Nicole Fitz
Maid of Honor
Nicole is the bride's older cousin, however only by 5 days! These two were inseparable growing up, not only did they go to school together but they chose to spend almost every weekend having sleepovers and making goofy videos.
Timmy Platten
Best Man
The younger, smarter and better looking brother of the groom, so he thinks. Despite being the baby of the family, he's the second tallest but not as tall as the groom. The groom was forced to take Timmy everywhere with him, which at the time was annoying, but made them even closer every day.
Alyssa Yusko
Bridesmaid
Alyssa and the bride met back in middle school while doing competitive cheerleading. They have been best friends ever since, even while Alley moved across the country to Arizona post college. Fun fact: their moms are also best friends!
Matt Mehalko
Groomsman
Matt and the groom met during their time at the University of Akron. The two worked together, were basically roommates and the groom was the best man in Matt's wedding.
Emily Craig
Bridesmaid
Emily became friends with the Bride in high school, but they really became close while they were roommates their senior year at Bowling Green.
Ryan Platten
Groomsman
The oldest, wisest and the shortest of the brothers. Ryan once tried to push the groom down the steps as a baby, thankfully he didn't or we would not be here today.
Christine Nixon
Bridesmaid
Christine met the bride when they moved into the same neighborhood back in 2001. They spent countless summers riding their bikes to each others houses and even joined competitive cheerleading together.
Nick Andrews
Groomsman
Nick and the groom met during their time at the University of Akron and went on to be roommates for several years. Nick is the life of the party, goes by the nickname 'daddy', and is always down to enjoy a nice box of Franzia.
Alexis Carris
Bridesmaid
Alexis met the bride while they were both doing competitive cheerleading. They eventually became travel buddies and have been on almost too many trips to count!
Tyler Harbert
Groomsman
Tyler and the groom met on move in day at Spicer Hall as freshman and were roommates for five years. Tyler and the groom are thankful for their first two college dropout roommates for introducing them that day.
Sara Rimes
Bridesmaid
Sara and the bride met for the first time in BGSU's union for a Jamba date while the bride was a new member of Pi Beta Phi. Obviously, it went so well that they became Big/Little and arguably should have won best big/little at formal...
Danny Reaser
Groomsman
Danny and the groom met in high school and have been friends ever since. Danny was the QB of the football team and wanted the groom to be one of his offensive lineman, if he had, they would have won states. The groom is Danny's second son's godfather.
Kailee McAfee
Bridesmaid
Better known as "little," Kailee met the bride when she joined Pi Phi. They quickly bonded over their love for vines. Kailee and the bride were even roommates when she made the big move to CLE.

Trevor Fitz
Junior Groomsman
Trevor is the bride's younger cousin. He spent his younger years crashing the bride and her maid of honor's sleepovers, he always wanted to be like us so we would even dress him up like a girl. Now he spends his time playing baseball and bugging the groom to do anything sports related.
Olivia Wells
Junior Bridesmaid
Olivia is the groom's youngest cousin. The groom was the ring bearer in Olivia's parent's wedding when he was only 3 years old. Olivia enjoys dancing, playing volleyball and losing to the groom in Headbandz (no, he does not cheat... maybe he does)
