Rachel & Travis
Wedding Party
Kate Ruth
Maid of Honor
Kate and Rachel have been friends for a decade! Rachel can always count on Kate for a listening ear, to go on a crazy adventure, make loud noises back to her in a crowded room, or have a random dance party. Kate always makes things more fun and Rachel is so excited to have her standing next to her on the big day!
Scott Leezer
Best Man
Scott is Travis' oldest friend. They met in the fourth grade and they've been best friends ever since. Their friendship is perfect because Scott is great at making people laugh and Travis loves to laugh! No matter how much time has passed since they've last seen each other or talked, whenever they connect it's like they haven't skipped a beat.
Torey Lehner
Bridesmaid
Torey and Rachel quickly became close after meeting through mutual friends. Torey is Rachel's go-to travel buddy whether it's going on a road trip to South Dakota or riding in a convertible in Florida. Torey is one of Rachel's greatest cheerleaders and she can always count on her support no matter what. Torey has also been so helpful through wedding planning!
Sean Scholl
Groomsman
Sean and Travis met in college and have too many ridiculous memories to name! They played football together at UW-Platteville and were both always up for an adventure. Their love for football extended past college into cheering for their fantasy teams with Bud Light Limes and spicy nugs in hand. Sean is a loyal friend and has had Travis' back when he needed it the most.
Emily Jenks
Bridesmaid
Emily is Rachel's cousin and she's graciously let Rachel live in her house for the past 6 years! It's been a gift to be able to grow closer while living under the same roof and enjoying the 4th Street antics. Emily always gives a great perspective to situations and Rachel knows she can always count on her. Emily and Rachel love watching trash TV together, playing trivia, trying new beers and hanging with the cats.
Peter Bruno
Groomsman
Peter was Travis' boss for close to three years. Peter has been very influential in Travis' career and coached and developed areas of growth in Travis to become a well-rounded manager. Peter has continued to be a sounding board over the past year in Travis' new role. Through the years, Travis and Peter have become good friends and Travis is excited to have him standing by him on the big day!
Anna DeMeuse
Bridesmaid
While they knew each other for many years (they even went on a road trip together!) it wasn't until they sat next to each other at a Brewer game and talked about life and love that their friendship really grew. Now, Rachel can't imagine her life without Anna!! Anna is always the go-to person for Rachel when she needs advice or confidence in God's will.
Chandler Fuzak
Groomsman
Chandler is Travis' oldest younger brother. Travis and Chandler bond over laughter whether it's watching Nacho Libre and 21 Jump Street or reading the handmade birthday cards they make each other. Their relationship isn't limited to laughter as Chandler has always been very supportive and provides a different perspective.
Michelle Ismert
Bridesmaid
Michelle and Rachel have been friends for many, many years. Rachel was blessed to live with Michelle for a year and it was Michelle that kept Rachel sane during some of the hardest moments of missionary life. Michelle pushes Rachel to continually grow closer to the Lord while enjoying life, and plenty of Mexican food, in the process!
Bennett Fuzak
Groomsman
Bennett is one of Travis' younger brothers . Travis and Bennett are so alike that hanging out with each other is super fun and arguments are super intense. Look out if they get on a roll talking about sports because it could be awhile. Travis and Bennett bond over beers from Noon Whistle, a brewery that Rachel randomly found.
Sami Boehm
Bridesmaid
Sami and Rachel's friendship is one for the books. They both bring out the weirdness in the other which always amounts to a cinnafun time. It's been such a blessing to walk in faith with Sami through faith extravaganzas and even a consecration to Divine Mercy. Rachel can't imagine being here, saying yes to marrying Travis, without Sami's love and support.
Dylan Fuzak
Groomsman
Dylan is Travis’ youngest brother. Travis has many fond memories with Dylan including water fights while yelling “We are big guys with squirt guns!!!” to Dylan teaching Travis all the latest dance moves in the family room with all spectators getting a good laugh. Travis has truly enjoyed the one on one time they have been able to share over the recent years.
Chris Lading
Usher
Rachel was in school with Chris' daughter and their families have been best friends ever since. Growing up, Chris was like a second dad to Rachel and she has fond memories of the ouch mouse, AAR day (with a brat fry!) and we can't forget the Christopher Columbus museum adventure! Chris and Travis are also in a infamous rock band together where Chris plays drums and sings and Travis plays bass.
Henry Lading
Usher
Rachel has known Henry since he was born and sees him as the younger brother she never had. Henry was welcoming of Travis from the get-go and it's always a gift when Rachel and Travis get to spend time with him. It makes Rachel and Travis' day when they stop for their weekly Crumbl cookies and Henry is working, greeting them with the joy and enthusiasm that is Henry's hallmark.
