    Wedding Party

Wedding Party

We're mixing things up and not having a traditional "wedding party". Here are some people who we would like to honor as we celebrate our big day-

Kacey

Mother of the Bride

She's fun, she's wise, and she's the bride's best friend- Stacey's mom truly DOES have it going on! Did you know, Kacey was the couple's official "match-maker"? She predicted the two would end up together six years before they went on their first date! Mother's Intuition at it's finest!


John & Diane

Father & mother of the groom

Meet the patriarch and matriarch of the ever-growing Kowalik clan. You can find Diane cooking for groups greater than 25 and John can be found holding at least one grandbaby at all times. We appreciate all the love and support these two are always willing to give.

Nick & Cadence

Brother & future sister of the bride

You know that couple that is the total life-of-the party? *enter Nick and Cadence* These two keep life FUN and not only that, but have the biggest hearts for others. Shout out to Nick and Cadence for helping Joe pull off the ultimate engagement that led us here today. Also.. their dog's name is Mr. Pickles, and we felt like that needed to be said.


John & abby

brother & sister-in-law of the groom

John and Abby love having babies.. seriously, they are on kid #5. But in all seriousness, John and Abby are stellar examples of great parents. We love John's sense of humor and Abby's love for life, and can't wait to heed their parenting advice... at some point...when that time comes...why you being so nosey...

Mitch & Heather

Brother & Sister-In-Law of the Bride

Meet Mitch, AKA Clark Griswold, and his wife Heather. You haven't had a proper game night until you've had one with these two. Mitch and Heather have been so generous and supportive of the couple during this exciting time- we can't thank you two enough!


Katie, Jed & chip

sister, brother-in-law and nephew of the groom

Meet the Dickinsons. What do you get when you cross a HVAC business owner with a children’s church director?... Answer: One COOL kid! Or as we call him, Chip! That was a joke, get it? With Katie’s sweet heart and Jed’s unfiltered sense of humor, this family has a special place in Joe and Stacey’s life.

Lauren

Best Friend of the Bride

Meet the honorary 4th Biermann sibling and Stacey's unofficially official Maid of Honor, Lauren! She is truly as sweet and supportive as they come. Stacey and Lauren bonded over their love for the Jonas Brothers in 2007, and have been inseparable ever since! The good, the bad, and everything in between, these girls have shared it all. The bride couldn't be happier to have Lauren by her side on the big day!


Steve & Addison

brother & sister-in-law of the groom

They're not regular parents... they're cool parents. These two not only lead the pack in style, but also in living life to the fullest. Whether it’s health trends, Bible reading plans, or anything Disney World related, these two will get you, your friends, your friend's friends, and even their moms on board! It’s amazing, we really love them. Disclaimer: Any conversation had with this couple will leave you feeling extremely optimistic and excited about life.

Sophia

Best Friend of the Bride

Sure, she's not related to the bride, but these two grew up as close as sisters. Stacey and Sophia have shared many of life's big moments, even moving to LA together. Between Sophia’s loving heart, witty sense of humor, and being a complete smoke show, she’s the total best friend package... Oh, did we forget to mention that she’s single? Or as Chris Harrison would say... “If you or someone you know wants to date our next bachelorette, please apply at www.facebook.com/sophiawells03”


Melissa, Dave & Madelyn

sister & brother-in-law of the groom

Now introducing the fastest growing branch of the Kowalik family tree, Dave and Melissa! With Baby Madelyn making her way into the world (and our hearts) any day now, this family will soon be “Sostman, party of four.” Watch out John and Abby, looks like you have some competition. We love spending time with them as our family and our friends!

Hannah

Best friend of the bride

And bringing the party from up North, we have Hannah Joy! Hannah and Stacey have been long-distance bffs for 5 years. Hannah's optimism and love for life makes her the ultimate modern woman & friend. When together, the two will likely end up dancing to Jason Derulo, and dreaming up their next girls trip with Dunkin iced-coffees in hand.


Lena & Nora

nieces of the groom

Our favorite twins AND our favorite bakers! Fun Fact: Lena and Nora are the bakers of the official wedding cake! In addition to being amazing chefs, they are also amazing young women. They are beautiful inside and out. Uncle Joe and Aunt Stacey love you so much.

Hendrix & Kingston

Ring Bearers

Aunt "Dacey" loves these two BIG time. They are both super excited for Uncle Joe to be apart of the family! Ladies- Hendrix is single and ready to mingle at the Happily Ever After-Party! At the moment, we think Kingston has a girlfriend... or maybe 2. Kids these days...


trent & stephen

ring bearers

The dapper diaper duo. These best friend cousins enjoy laughing, eating snacks, pointing at things, and Baby Shark. These two tiny dancers have agreed to perform their original Baby Shark dance at the Happily Ever After-Party - Admission fee is 8 Cheerios per guest.

Diana, Cecilia & Rosemary

Flowergirls

Sugar, spice, & everything nice. Meet the flower girls. Between Diana’s warm heart, Cece's spunky charm, and Rosie's impressive vocal range, these three have it all. Uncle Joe and Aunt Stacey are so excited to have these three special girls included in their big day! We love you!
