Wedding Party
Tristen Franklin
Bride
Alex Leporowski
Groom
Keagen D'Arcy
Maid of Honor
As most of you know, this is my pain in the ass sister. Growing up only 3 years apart and always sharing a room, we had our fair share of fights. When it came to picking my maid of honor, there was no hesitation in picking her. I won't ever admit it, and if someone tells her I wrote this, I'll deny it, but I love her so much. As crazy as she is, there's nobody else I could imagine holding my hand and my wiping my tears as I marry my bestfriend! I love you Keagen! Thank you for saying yes!
Matthew Metcalf
Best Man
Oh Matthew where do I even begin. It's crazy to think how far back we go! You and Alex have been best friends forever, and we met about 13 years ago! We've always been the three best friends that anyone could have. All the countless memories of late bar nights, camping trips, dance parties to the Spongebob soundtrack, and jamming to the best rapper of all time a.k.a Waka Flaka. lmfao. In all seriousness, we love you and couldn't have imagined anyone else as our best man.
Antonella Pokorny
Matron of Honor
Antonella, We are so thankful to have you in our lives! You are the purest person we know. When it came to choosing our matron of honor, there was nobody else we could've picked better than you. You have always supported us, listen to me blab about our arguments, and have always given us the advise we needed to get to this day. We love you so much, Thank you for saying yes and standing with us on our biggest day!
Maxwell Pokorny
Groomsman
Maxi! As soon as we got engaged and started talking about our wedding party, there was no hesitation that your name would come up. You and Alex have known each other since you were on a soccer team together when you were children and you both completely forgot! I had the pleasure of meeting you in a high school class where you were so quiet. Crazy to think that since then, you've never stopped talking! You are truly an amazing friend to both of us, and we can't wait to enjoy our biggest day with you!
Nina Jones
Bridesmaid
Nina, from the day you came into our lives we both knew that you would be someone who would be around for forever! You are the sweetest and most selfless person I know! The countless memories and girls nights that I will spare the world of knowing! I am so thankful that Matthew brought you into our lives and that you did us the honor of standing with us on our special day!
Kennedy Bradley-Stevens
Bridesmaid
Kennedy my love, First and foremost, thank you for saying yes and becoming one of our bridesmaids! I remember asking you in the car with zack and little baby milo and you burst into tears and screamed " ARE YOU KIDDING, OF COURSE! " We have grown so close in these past years and i'm so thankful for it! Also, thank you for blessing Alex and I with that great baby to love and spoil! But on a more serious note, you better be next to be getting married... We love you!
Antonio Santos
Groomsman
ANTONIO! Gosh, I have way too much to say about you. First, we love you. You are truly one of our best friends. (mine more than alex but we don't have to tell him that) Thank you for saying yes to being our groomsman, since you said no to being my bridesmaid! Seriously, you are always there for us and just a phone call away. Friends like you really make a person know how loved they are. The way I showed out for you on your 22nd birthday, is the exact way i'm gonna need you at the wedding! We love you Beans!
Joseph Jackson
Groomsman
Joe, We have all grown so close over the years. At this point, I believe that you and I talk more than you and Alex haha! But seriously, all the priceless memories and inside jokes always make us laugh when thinking back to them. You are truly a great friend and will be an even better groomsman. We are so thankful to have you by our side on our biggest day!
Caylei Vu
Bridesmaid
Caylei! My sweet Caylei, We grew so close over discussing our childhoods and realizing we lived the same life, through the countless bar nights where we sat and just laughed together, all the 2 am rams horn nights with cheese fries well done. You are my rock, I wouldn't have made it this far without your shoulder to cry on. I am so grateful for you and all the memories we share! I love you girl, and I can't wait to spend our biggest day with you by our sides!
Emma Scherer
Jr. Bridesmaid
My sweet little peanut. When you were born, we instantly became best friends. Alex has been in your life since you were only two months old, it's crazy to think that you will never know a world without him. When we got engaged Christmas morning, you had my most favorite reaction. Your tears of pure joy and your heart so full of love. After all was said and done, i saw you wipe your tears and ask "can I hug you now?" I always knew you would be involved in our big day, but little did I know how much you WANTED to be. I love you so much my sweet little Sherman. I can't wait for you to be holding my hand on my biggest day!
Justin Swisher
Groomsman
Mr. Justin Swisher I thank you for the friendship you and Alex had. He tells me stories all the time of all the hell you two raised and how crazy you drove your parents. You and your family have always offered Alex a seat at your table and have made it known that you are just a phone call away! I'm so excited to see you more often and hear more funny stories of you two! Also Justin, you better be next on this wedding train!
Rei Hysi
Groomsman
Rei, if we are both being honest, we have grown to love you so much. You are so genuine and obnoxious, but you are truly are an amazing friend. More like a brother to both of us. When we were choosing our men, you came to mind and without a shadow of a doubt are the best addition. You have been with us since the beginning and we are so excited that you'll be with us through this wild ride!
