Ashley & Anthony
Wedding Party
Rebecca Garsys
Maid of Honor
The closest sister in age, she has always shared so much with me: a room, friends, sports, old clothes, and so many wonderful experiences. She has a light and a love that brighten every room! Rebecca, her husband Gintas and their son Marek reside in Medina, MN.
Clinton Fuerstenberg
Best Man
Also will answer to "White Chocolate" or "Pasty Pilgrim". Anthony and Clinton me through a summer internship selling books in 2004. I can always tell when Clinton is around or on the phone, because Anthony can't seem to stop giggling. Clinton is a super goofy, fun-loving, Minnesota sports and craft beer fan. He lives in Apple Valley, MN with his wife, Kerrie and their children, Harper and Carter.
Martha Serbus
Bridesmaid
Martha is the middle sister, and the only one who didn't have to share a room with me. Throughout the years we still managed to enjoy many adventures to make up for that (along with our shared love of food, wine and naps)! She is fearless, smart, and has the biggest heart! Martha and her daughter Ellie live in Belgrade, MN.
Leon Price
Groomsman
Leon is the oldest of Anthony's brothers, and has always been someone he's looked up to. Leon was a stud football player back in the day. He and Anthony played together at Southwest Minnesota State University. Currently, Leon runs his own barbershop in Minneapolis. He is a loving father to two awesome kids; Amelia and Ahmir.
Holly Nadgwick
Bridesmaid
My big sister, and second mom. I don't think she ever had a room to herself in high school because I came along, but she has loved me regardless. Holly is nurturing, devoted, humble and the absolute silliest sister! She and her husband Ross live along a small lake near Kensington, MN. They have four children; Logan, Connor, Madeline and Jackson.
Aaron Price
Groomsman
Aaron is Anthony's twin brother. They are fraternal twins, but still share plenty including their passion for sports and music. Aaron is always working hard persuing his passions in the arts. He has worked producing television and radio shows, as well as his own music and photography. Aaron works and resides in Minneapolis.
Tracy Radermacher
Bridesmaid
Tracy is a friend of mine from growing up. She brought me out of my shell, and introduced me to a whole new town, Elrosa (haha). We got into all sorts of shenanigans growing up and made some unforgettable memories! She is a super caring, unstoppable, and loyal friend. Her and her husband Tyler live in Albany, MN and they are expecting a brand new bundle of joy this June!
Alex Price
Groomsman
Alex is the youngest of the "brothers". He is super smart, driven, caring, and just as passionate about music as his older brothers. Alex works with computers, but is always expressing his artistic passion when he can. He is into photgraphy, and is becoming quite an accomplished music/video producer, as well as a musician himself. Alex lives and works in Minneapolis.
Jennifer Hess
Bridesmaid
Jen and I met around kindergarten. I was never in the same classroom with her until 4th grade, so I always felt "intimidated" by her. Finally I got to know her playing Saturday basketball with Mrs. Field, and spending summer days at our local pool. Those days eventually turned into us being locker room/bus buddies in every sport. Jen has always been a little quiet, and reserved. I definitely encouraged her rebellious streak, but she was there to keep me in check. She held me, and listened through all the scary things being a teenager brings. She now works as a High School counselor. She lives in Spicer, MN with her husband, Casey and their two babes; Wyatt and newborn, Ayla.
Ahmad McCray
Groomsman
Ahmad and Anthony were best friends growing up. They were always tearing it up on a field or court of some sort. When they get together I find myself completely lost in all of the silly inside jokes they have. Ahmad is an avid golfer and bowler these days, and he resides in Minneapolis with his significant other, Becca.
Lisa Erickson
Bridesmaid
Anthony and I met Lisa, and her husband Kyle through mutual friends. We attended a bonfire at their place and I knew immediately I needed her to be my friend! I wedged my way into their lives by stopping over for random visits and making their house my home too. They have always made us feel so welcome. Lisa is one of the most honest, real, caring individuals. Her levelhead balances me and teaches me so much. She loves traveling, camping, music and adventures, as well as puzzles! They live right by downtown Fargo, and have an adorbable, spunky dog named Indie, as well as a fiesty, yet cute cat named Nova.
Brian Bakken
Groomsman
Anthony met Brian through their college internship, selling books. They later continued working together selling insurance. Brian has been a major mentor in Anthony's life, and is always willing to take Anthony under his wing. He is always encouraging Anthony to be and do his best. Brian is origanlly from East Grand Forks, MN, but now resides in sunny, Gulfport, FL with his wife Malia. They have four wacky, fun kids; Leila, Liliana, Luke, and Micah. And don't worry, Brian is for sure raising Vikings fans.
Brady Simonson
Bridesman
Brady and I met through volleyball friends, and became closer working together at Spitfire. We hit it off once we discovered our schools played one another in sports growing up. He resparked my motivation/passion for getting back into the gym and volleyball leagues. He is super athletic, adventurous, and a total goofball, who loves his video games! After spending many early mornings at the gym, and late nights at work together, we became inseparable. If someone can't get ahold of Brady they usually call me. He's my best boyfriend, and luckily now he and his dog Bo only live a block away!
Norman Wright
Groomsman
Norman and Anthony met working at Microsft in 2015. Norman moved to Fargo from Irvington, New Jersey. Both Anthony, and Norman were big city guys chasing their futures to Fargo, ND. They had an instant understanding and connection. Anthony says it felt like they grew up together. Maybe because Norman is also a twin, or it could be because they are so similar in other aspects. Norman has the biggest heart, a passion for travel, and a keen sense of fashion. He was the only guy that could outdress Anthony in Fargo. Now Norman is living in Seattle and working at Microsoft headquarters.
Kristina Smith
Bridesmaid
I met Kristina working at Spitfire. Since we worked opposite shifts, it took a couple years to get to know one another. Once I switched to night shifts we quickly became friends, and it is crazy to imagine how long it took us to realize we are soul sisters. Kristina is my long lost twin. We are constantly confused for the other by customers (new or regulars), co-workers, and even by our own friends and significant others. Kristina is passionate about cooking, traveling (especially to the ocean), having fun, and living a healthy, natural, positive life. She just started her big girl job at Eide Bailey, and is planning a wedding with her awesome partner, Tyler. They live here in Fargo with the coolest cat in town, Lucky.
Travis Mikkelson
Groomsman
Travis and Anthony met doing that book thing too. They also both worked together selling inurance. Fun Fact- Travis worked with Anthony his first summer selling books and with me, my first summer selling, 8 years later. Travis is super talented, knowledgeable, and passionate. He loves rock music, golf, the SDSU jackrabbits, and the Chicago Bears and Blackhawks. Travis has served for over 10 years in the National Guard. Travis and his wife, Kailey live in Brookings, SD with their two adorable kids, Laken and Lennon.
Kali Erickson
Bridesmaid
Kali and I met coaching volleyball for a local high school. Since it was a smaller school, our teams had to share a court for practice. I am so thankful, because otherwise I may have never gotten to know this amazing woman! Kali spent most of her life growing up in Virginia. Her family moved to Fargo when she was in high school, and from there she went to Crookston to play volleyball. She is definitely the best "girl" friend. She loves clothes, make-up, shopping, tacos, maragaritas, yoga, lifting, plants, and all cats! She has such an old, caring soul, and a beautiful love for life. Kali lives here in Fargo with her adorable fur baby, Millie, and is persuing her career as an esthetician.
Dexton Hicks
Groomsman
Dex met Anthony, and all the other hooligans, selling books. He also worked with them selling insurance. Dex is super smart, loyal, caring, and has been someone Anthony can lean on through the years. Dex loves good rock music, attending concerts, but mostly spending quality time with all the people in his life. Dex previously served in the military, and still is passionate about supporting our country. He is originally from South Dakota, but now lives in Kansas City, MO and is an owner of a technology company.
Brittany Alcaide
Honor Attendant
I met Brittany when I came to visit Anthony in Fargo. They started working at Microsoft together, and have been great friends since day one. I knew I loved her when she kicked a guy out of her car for being rude to me! Once I moved back to Fargo we slowly got to know one another, and soon realized how similar our souls are. No matter which season of life we are in, we both consistently show up for each other with unconditional support and love. She is a strong, smart, beautiful human that Anthony and I can always count on. She loves good quality time with quality people, and a gorgeous beach! She just married her sweetheart Aldo, and they just built a house out in West Fargo.
AJ Skalsky
Officiant
Aj recruited me to sell books. He was my manger, mentor and big brother through college and after. He is super talented in everything he does! Aj is a goofy, fun-loving, adventurous, devoted, and caring human. He is definitely a guys guy, but has shared many cries with me! He loves hockey, golf, snowboarding, and a good comedy. I have always looked up to Aj, and the fierce love and devotion he and his wife Cristie share. They are both so strong in their faith and love for God, as well as one another. He was a major reason I never lost my faith. Aj is now a District Sales Manager with Southwestern Advantage, and resides in Colorado with his lovely wife, Cristie.
Marek Garsys
Ring Bearer
Marek is my youngest nephew. He will be turning five this summer! Marek is a total goofball that loves all people, but especially cool guys like Anthony and his older cousins. If he isn't playing a sport (he can play them all!), he is having nerf wars, playing ninja turtles or power rangers. Marek has an incredible imagination, and a deep love for his family.
Ahmir Price
Ring Bearer
Ahmir is Anthony's nephew. He just turned six last month. Ahmir is active, slightly reserved, super smart, and a caring young man. He enjoys playing legos and electronic games. He also absolutely adores his older sister, Amelia.
Eliana Funes
Flower Girl
Ellie is my youngest niece. She is 8, going on 18! Eliana and I spent many of her pre-k years hanging out. We loved watching frozen, cuddling, eating desserts and being silly. She has a super big heart, and just wants someone to play and dance with. Ellie will definitely be tearing up the dance floor all night at our wedding (she is not afraid of the spotlight)! She loves spending time with her cousins, shopping, and playing dolls (I am jealous of her collections).
