Erin & Michael
Wedding Party
Tiffany Schmitt
Matron of Honor
Tiffany and Erin have known each other for over 15 years. They both played the flute in band, but color guard is where they really got to know each other. Now they enjoy trying new and different martinis. While planning the wedding they have enjoyed all things glitter!
Nick Walling
Best Man
Nick has known Mike since they were both very little as Nick's grandparents lived just a few houses down from where Mike grew up. Nick is a lifelong friend who has journeyed with Mike from grade school all the way through college. They have been roommates multiple years and have been on several adventures together. Nick is very outgoing, but dont take his advise on how to use birdseed.
Christina Soppe
Bridesmaid
Christina and Erin have known each other for over 2 years now. They met while working together at a spa and bonded instantly, becoming work besties, spending all their free time together, discussing the latest gossip.
Derick Hutchins
Groomsman
Mike and Derick also met shortly into freshman year at Iowa where they became instant friends as Derick would frequent the C-store where Mike worked. Derick and Mike both have laid back personalities, and if ever asked a question, the answer is always blue. Derick also is the only person to ever beat Mike in NFL Blitz
Holly Nettles
Bridesmaid
Erin and Holly met 14 years ago working at the River Walk Restaurant (now Tony Roma's) inside the Grand Harbor as the best hostesses ever! They became best friends soon after. Our manager didn't even schedule us on the same days as they felt we didn't get any work done. They spent so much time together that Erin's parents started calling Holly their "other daughter that isn't Erin".
Luke Horan
Groomsman
Mike met Luke in college at the start of freshman year and became very close friends right away. Luke is always up for new things and is very good at meeting and friending new people. Luke currently resides in Denver where he plays a lot of Pokemon Go trying to get any shiny's he can
Holly Garrigus
Bridesmaid
Holly and Erin have known each other for 6 years. They met while working at American Trust and Savings Bank where they went on numerous lunch date's and "popped our cherries" when they ate somewhere they've never been before.
Johnny Kingyon
Groomsman
Johnny and Mike met a few years into college through other friends. It was easy for Johnny and Mike to become friends right away as they both have a passion for Iowa football. It was also because of Iowa football that Johnny became a pro at beer darts, which if you dont know what that is, Johnny will for sure show you and he is always down for a few games
Bethany Palmer
Bridesmaid
Bethany and Erin have known each other since 7th grade, when Bethany asked which teacher Erin liked better. Soon after that, where you would see one of them, the other was there too all the way through high school where they were in band and color guard together.
Ryan Etscheidt
Groomsman
Ryan and Mike also met in college as they both worked at the Hillcrest C-Store during their time at Iowa. Ryan is one of the easiest people to talk to, so they both became friends right away. They each had a lot of good time working together including the night Mike almost broke the C-Store. Ryan is also a huge fan of Iowa sports so there are many good times that were also had during tailgates before football games. If you ever need a ride to Des Moines to pick up a Jägermeister cooler just for a Halloween party, Ryan is your guy!
Rachel Chapman
Bridesmaid
Rachel and Erin met when Erin and Mike started dating. She is the sister and only sibling of Mike. Erin is excited to finally have the sister she always wanted and couldn't ask for anyone better!
Noah Schumacher
Groomsman
Noah and Mike met shortly after Erin and Mike started dating. Noah is a very easy going person and Mike knew right away they would be able to get along really well. If your ever down in Muscatine, you will probably see Noah mowing his yard or working on his vehicles with a Bud Light by his side. He really shows you what a man with a cannon in his chest can do!
Kyle Kern
Usher
Kyle met Mike at the same time Mike met Noah as Noah and Kyle are a package deal. Much like Noah, Kyle is very easy going and a close friend to the Schumacher's. Although Kyle is good at injuring himself while working construction, he is also very knowledgeable and handy at any home projects, but don't ask him what a centaur is as he has no idea!
Megan Schumacher
Officiant
Megan is Erin's "identical twin cousin" and will be officiating the wedding. If you ask Megan about Erin, she will tell you how she would baby-sit Erin and change her diapers. Megan also is the very talented director of The Rising Star Theater Co. You may also recognize her voice from the radio if you listen to The River!
