Michelle & Ian

Wedding Party

Here are the amazing people who we chose to stand by our sides on our special day!

Elizabeth Bouillon

Maid of Honor

Elizabeth was forced into my life when I was 4 years old. I couldn't stand her for probably the first 13 years of her life (you know how younger siblings can be). But we grew extremely close over the last 10 years and I am so thankful. Life would not be the same without her!


Derek Bastian

Best Man

Derek and I met when I started working at Microtech almost 9 years ago. We didn't talk much at first until he was coerced into training me to work at our Warsaw shop. Since then, it's been daily shenanigans, random projects and challenges, and we've never successfully drank only one beer. Derek has become a friend that I can go to for anything and everything, I'm so thankful for our friendship!

Jasmine Stephens

Matron of Honor

Jasmine and I were in the same class in second grade. I don't really remember how our friendship started but we soon became inseparable. We spent almost all of our time together in and out of school all the way through high school. She is someone that I have been able to count on for the past 21 years and I couldn't imagine life without her!


Kaelan Sanders

Groomsman

The fact that Kaelan and I haven't wound up in the back of the same cop car is unbelievable. We have had some of the most questionable and wildest adventures over the last 17 years. We first met in 4th grade and raised hell every year after that. We've biked more miles, drank more drinks, and laughed until we were blue in the face more times together than anyone else I know. Kaelan has always had my back and I'm so glad to have him by my side, not only on my wedding day but for life. <3

Brooke Coates

Bridesmaid

Brooke and I met through a mutual friend in college during her freshman year. We technically only lived together for a year but we spent more time together than apart after that. Many drunken nights occurred over the last 7 years and we've made a lot of good memories while traveling and eating food. She is definitely the lifelong college friend that someone could only dream of having!


Nick Fowler

Groomsman

Nick and I have known each other for going on 10 years. It didn't take long to realize I could count on Nick to tag along in just about any adventure. From kayaking through a vicious horsefly infested channel and sinking his kayak, to a raging Snake pit at the Indy 500, this guy is down to clown. Nick is definitely one of those life long friends and I cant imagine a good time without him!

Tanisha Hanks

Bridesmaid

Tanisha and I started working together teaching first grade in 2019. I was the only younger teacher at my school that year so I was excited to have someone my age to work with. Our friendship really started over a couple pitchers of margaritas one night and now we spend more time together than most coworkers but I wouldn't trade her friendship for anything!


Jeremiah Pedroza

Groomsman

Gary, Jerry, Jer-bear... I've got about as many nicknames for Jeremiah as DJ Khalid has songs. Speaking of which, don't they look similar? Jerry and I went to high school together but didn't really connect until he applied for a job at Microtech. That was 4 years ago and not a work day goes by that we aren't cracking jokes on each other or encouraging the other to do better. The bond we've made has been important to the both of us. I was honored to be a Groomsman on his big day and I'm so glad he's one of mine!

Emily Bouillon

Bridesmaid

Emily was also forced into my life but when I was only 2. We constantly butted heads growing up, even into adulthood. We don't butt heads nearly as often now that we're adults and don't live under the same roof. I'm grateful to have her as a sister!


Corey Delaney

Groomsman

If you're familiar with my Groomsmen, you'll know Corey is the shortest one. That doesn't mean anything, but they're coincidentally lined up in descending height order. One of my favorite traits Corey has is his ability to tell himself he's going to have a project done on time, and then getting it partially done a year after that. We both support each other in our procrastination, while at the same time always being there to help when it's needed. I've known Corey for 10 hilarious years and I'm so thankful to have him stand with me on my most important day!
