Richard Strzok
Best Man
Richard and Reid met on their local school bus in 1998 and have been inseparable ever since. For 22 years, they've been engaging in debauchery and trying out every single all-you-can-eat sushi restaurant in the greater Chicago area.
Noel Koeller
Bridesmaid
Noel is Ashley's sister in law. She is also the mom of the adorable flower girl. Noel's favorite memory is when they went on a tubing trip down the river. They also had a blast seeing Kenny Chesney in Minneapolis.
Danny Koeller
Groomsman
Danny is Ashley's brother, and he is the father of the cute flower girl, Rosie. Danny's favorite memory of Reid is when they celebrated his wedding in Wisconsin Dells a few years ago.
Samantha Dean
Bridesmaid
Sam is Ashley's brother's girlfriend. They currently live in Sparta, WI with their pets. Sam's favorite memory with Reid and Ashley is tubing down the Kickapoo River in a thunderstorm-lots of laughs and lots of fun!
Brent Koeller
Groomsman
Brent is Ashley's oldest brother. He first met Reid over 6 years ago in Las Vegas when Reid asked Danny and Brent's permission to date their sister. Brent is looking forward to showing off his dance moves at the wedding!
Sonia Suihkonen
Bridesmaid
Sonia and Ashley met the first week of college, and they have been friends ever since. They also had a lot of classes together in the WSU Education Program. One of Sonia's favorite memories is when Reid and Ashley first started dating, and they would go to Mangos. Sonia also loves going to Midway with Reid and Ashley to dance and sing karaoke.
Andy Lubinski
Groomsman
I met Reid freshman year of college. We were 18. We connected because he was also familiar with Winona, and he always had me laughing. One Reid memory would be Tequila Fridays in the dorms.
Hannah Horman
Bridesmaid
Hannah's favorite memory is from the first time she met Ashley. Hannah and her friends did Ashley's makeup, and in the words of Hannah, "it was horrible," but she was so happy to have someone to call a sister. Ashley and Hannah love hanging out on Lake Neshonic.
Jack Smithe
Groomsman
Jack is Reid's younger brother. He currently goes to school at the University of Denver. Even though there is a six year age gap between the two, they are still best friends.
Johnna Austin
Bridesmaid
Johnna takes credit for Reid and Ashley meeting. Johnna applied for a job at Signature's but declined it for another job. When they called to tell her they had a hostess opening, Johnna told Ashley about the job. Ashley applied and got the job. Six months later, Reid got a job at Signature's and the rest is history. Ashley and Johnna first met when they became neighbors in their freshman dorm. Johnna and Ashley always went on wild adventures that only made sense to them. Johnna says, "I was so happy when Reid came around. He not only supported our shenanigans, but sometimes, he even joined in!"
Cameron Smithe
Groomsman
Cameron is Reid's older brother. Cameron says, "The first time I met Reid he was screaming and crying; such a wimp. What was he, a baby? Seriously though, I remember knowing he would be special even before he could talk (and I could barely for that matter.) He was always my buddy, and while I was tough on him sometimes, I still cared about him more than pretty much anyone. I am amazingly proud of who he has become, and wish all the best towards the future."
Lauren Ozimek
Bridesmaid
Ashley and Lauren met at school. They had lunch together every day and there started their strong friendship. One of Lauren's favorite memories is when they watched Tik Tok videos of Adele before Tik Tok was popular. Peace. Love. Diet Coke.
Hagan Dooley
Groomsman

Abbey Hoegh
Bridesmaid
Abbey is Ashley's younger cousin. They used to make up dances and do pretend photo shoots on their grandparent's farm. Ashley and Abbey's favorite memory together was when they went to the Britney Spears concert in Las Vegas.
Bill Walsh
Groomsman

Andrea Kerr
Bridesmaid
Andrea says, "I met Ashley in the college cafeteria, when she asked to borrow the salt at my table. It's crazy to think that such a simple question led to us becoming co-workers, roommates, and great friends. This past summer, I went and stayed with Reid and Ashley in Chicago. It was such a blast! My cheeks and stomach hurt from how much I laughed that weekend. Anytime I am with Reid and Ashley I know that memories are going to be made and my cheeks will hurt from all the laughs we share."
