Wedding Party
Kristi Smith
Matron of Honor
Kristi has been the most amazing sister a girl could ask for! We’ve been through thick and thin and have only gotten closer as each day goes by. I was so honored to be part of her wedding and now I’m ecstatic to have her standing next to me for mine! We have had so many hilarious moments together, way too many to list. I absolutely cherish our sisterhood. She’s been amazing and extremely helpful and it all means the world to me! I thank her for her patience, her understanding, her time, her suggestions and her help! I couldn’t imagine having this amazing day without her!
Bryant Bosler
Best Man
Bryant. We met in the 6th grade at a roller rink in town while hanging with mutual friends. We have been rolling through life together ever since. We attended the same Jr highs, and HS together. We were on the same wrestling and football teams throughout. Where one slacked the other backed. True brothers from other mothers right off the bat. 24 years of brotherhood. Still going strong. From one best man to another, I am honored to have him join us on the special day.
Victoria O’Leary
Bridesmaid
Victoria (Tori) has been one of my greatest friends for over 15 years! We met at Elgin Community College during an English class. We sat right next to each other and just clicked in seconds. She is so outgoing and bubbly and always knows how to make me laugh. She’s been one of my longest friends and has always had my back no matter what. From our college days, to our coffee dates, to weddings and babies! I’ve loved every minute of it! My wedding day would not be the same without her!
Christopher Lis
Groomsman
Mr. Fix it. This one hits deep. As the middle brother of the pact, he was my competition. No matter what, we always had to one up each other. Sometimes, it got rough. Those moments, though, built us into the brothers we are today. Always there for one another. No longer looking to be better, but to now focus on learning from one another. He's taught me so much over the years, especially about cars, as he is our family mechanic and one of the best at it. Our relationship went from one of fighting each other to fighting for each other. Though I used to bother him so much. I wouldn't change a thing about it. Even though he has now moved to Arizona with his family, we continue to talk almost daily. I am honored he will be helping me fix up another life memory and sharing this special day with me.
Lauren Corso
Bridesmaid
Lauren is pretty much my twin. We both worked at Sport Clips; but at two different stores. I would go to her store to help out when they were low staffed and I swear it only took working with this girl one shift and we were best friends. We just laugh when we’re together. She’s been there for me in so many ways. We can literally talk about anything and I’d have it no other way! Can not wait for her to stand with me at my wedding!
Jeremy Thomey
Groomsman
Jeremy and I met in high school. Since that day, we have created a friendship that has lasted over 16 years. Even when Jeremy moved across the country, we always remained in contact. Checking in to just talk life and sports weekly. No matter what Jeremy does in life he always gives it his all. He's a stand-up guy and one of the best to have on ur side. Though he resides in Florida he always has a place in my family. I am honored that he will be standing by my side for another life event that we will never forget.
Allison Palik
Bridesmaid
Alli is my first ever niece and man did I get a good one!! She is the most loving, helpful, sympathetic, funny, beautiful, caring young lady. The list could honestly go on and on!! When I asked her to stand with me at my wedding her face completely lit up and she was so excited! She has always talked about ‘when Auntie Staci gets married’ and I’m honored to have her standing with me when I say ‘I do!’
Michael Lis
Groomsman
The OG of the Lis brothers. The head of the table in that sense. He's always been one I’ve looked up to not only because he is my oldest brother but because of the energy he brings to any room in any situation. His creative talents always lead him to new adventures in life, and it's been an honor to share in his successes. He's always been there when I needed him, whether it was to lend a hand or lend an ear; he was there. He is the whole F'n show aka Showtime. I am honored to have him stand with me on this special day. Time to Show up and Show out. Cause it's Showtime.
Juliann Palik
Flower Girl
Juli is my second niece and she is a fun, caring, helpful, energetic, silly, outgoing, smart young lady! She always knows how to make things interesting and fun! She brings positivity into every room she’s in and I couldn’t imagine getting married without her as one of our flower girls!
Brooklyn Lis
Flower Girl
The god Daughter, the fashion icon, the little diva, the little girl who will brighten your world. Whether she's enjoying her time horseback riding, or running the field and scoring goals, she is a fan favorite in any event. I am honored she will be sharing this special day with us. And I can't wait to see her dressed to impress as always.
JJ Palik
Ring Bearer
JJ is my only nephew on my side so he obviously holds a special place in my heart. He is an adorable, funny, cuddly, loving, sweet boy. He always has a smile on his face that will just melt your heart. I know he will bring so much love on our wedding day! We are so lucky to have him as one of our ring bearers!
Dominic Lis
Ring Bearer
How can you not love his adorable faces and reactions. Whether playing with dinos or shooting nerf guns, spending time with this little man is always a great time. Moments I cherish as he gets older and older. I can't wait to see his smile light up the room as he joins us for this glorious day.
David Lis
Usher
The OG nephew. The first. The one who made Dan an uncle. We are proud to have this outstanding young man be a part of our wedding. I remember the days of David always asking to go play catch, ride bikes, shoot hoops, blow off fireworks, and the smile it would bring him. Now we get to enjoy the same smile and feeling after having asked David to be part of our wedding. The times David said he looked up to Dan, now Dan literally gets to look up to David. We appreciate him taking part with us on this special day and wouldn't have had it any other way.
Payton Lis
Usher
What can you say to the kid with the best responses to everything. You say Payton will you be a part of our special day? Of course Payton accepted. It's been an honor to watch this young man grow over the years. Literally every year he grew. We have had so many awesome memories shared together. He truly does bring a smile to your face everytime your with him. Whether we talk shop about new kicks to get, or funny shows, or cool movies that are out; being around Payton is always refreshing. We are honored and appreciative that he will be sharing this special day with us.
