Wedding Party
Steph Boyd
Maid of Honor
Steph and Gina met through swimming (of course). She is Gina's best friend since childhood and is very much the adventurer! No matter how long they've been apart, it's like nothing has changed when they get to see each other!
Cooper Goeke
Best Man
Cooper is Keegan's one and only older brother. Keegan has since surpassed him in all abilities and charm.
Lauren Oktavec
Bridesmaid
Gina met Lauren at Mount Union through the swim team, and both of them majored in Exercise Science. Lauren is also a physical therapist, so they've spent a lot of time together over the years!
Daniel Callis
Groomsman
Callis and Keegan met at Ashland University through swimming, became roommates, and got in A LOT of trouble together!
Elise Pichola
Bridesmaid
Elise was Gina's recruit at Mount Union and eventually joined the swim team. Elise is also in the medical field as a travel nurse where she gets to travel to cool places while making a difference in the lives of her patients!
Ryan Deemer
Groomsman
Keegan also met Deemer through the Ashland University swim team around the same time he met Callis. Keegan tends not to call his friends by their first names. Also pictured is not Deemer's dog, Brad.
Ashley Weeks
Bridesmaid
Ashley was Gina's first roommate in college -- and was on the swim team. Ashley is attending pharmacy school at the University of Cincinnati and is currently serving in the army! Unfortunately, Ashley will not be able to attend the ceremony because she will be deployed come May. Please thank her for her service if you get a chance to see her before then and keep her in your prayers!
Danny Saxon
Groomsman
Danny is Gina's little brother. Gina loves to brag about him because he is incredibly smart (smarter than she is) and is in MEDICAL SCHOOL at Wayne State! Also pictured is his cat Chili.
Amy Adams
Bridesmaid
Amy and Gina are cousins (mom's side) and are only about a month apart in age, so they have always been incredibly close. Amy is the most beautiful artist and was also a great swimmer- it's genetic;) She is in fact, not the actress. If you're curious about her art, you can see her art on her instagram @amyaadams_art (the tomato painting is my all-time favorite).
Katie Rhodes
Flower Girl
Katie is Ella's older sister and is currently a student at Kent State University. Katie is following in Gina's footsteps as she is aspiring to become a physical therapist too!
Ella Rhodes
Flower Girl
Ella is one of Gina's cousins on her dad's side. Ella is an incredible actress, dancer, and singer! Our family especially LOVED her performance in the school play, "Murder and Crimson House", as she had an absolutely killer death scene!! She also really likes to fish as you can see by her profile picture!
