The Party
Megan Hinderaker
Maid of Honor
Megan and I have been friends for 15 years. She has two amazing children both of which happen to be our god children; Malcolm (5) and Leijah (1). We met as childhood next door neighbors and my mother would eventually become her high school teacher. So many of our firsts were shared together and I couldn’t imagine getting married without her by my side.
Samantha Engelby
Bridesmaid
Samantha is my sister. She’s been my sister now for 21 years! It doesn’t get much better than her. She knows exactly how to make me laugh at any point in time with a single look. Sammy has a heart of gold and her sweet demeanor with her positive outlook never cease to amaze me. We are so lucky to have her enthusiastic support through this next chapter.
Melissa Jones
Bridesmaid
Melissa will soon become my bonus sister! She is the mother to our sweet baby niece, Reagan ( 1 ). We may pour our wine a little heavy... but we always have a good time. She cannot keep a straight face through a pedicure and I am always happy to film it. Griffin and I are so thankful to have her be a big part of our lives. Our wedding day wouldn't be the same without her standing up there with me.
Erin Reis
Bridesmaid
Erin Reis has been a friend of Griffins for the past 6 years and her and I had a friendship the day we met just 4 years ago. She serves our country through the National Guard, is the original Sassinator, and the creator of the Beermosa. Griff sure is one hell of a lucky guy to have two ladies like us in his life!
Katie Murphy
Bridesmaid
Katie is one of the sweetest, most down to earth, and patient women I have met. She is married to Mike Murphy, one of Griffins dearest friends, and together they have a pup named Huck. Naturally, Katie and I connected day one and have created amazing memories since then. We are so grateful to have them be apart of our big day.
Cerissa McKinney
Bridesmaid
Cerisa is the most adorable woman who never fails to bring dessert. She hands out compliments as much as she does cupcakes (which is often!). Her and Nate McKinney have been married for the last five years and have one feisty Corgi named Winston. We are very thankful for their presence at our wedding!
David Winn
Best Man
The Big Dave. First friend in Minnesota 13 years ago, trouble making roommate, and the sweetest teddy bear around. Alex survived us three making our way through Vegas in 2017 - bless her heart - us three made some unforgettable memories. I am so grateful to have him by my side during the most important moment in my life.
Mike Murphy
Groomsman
Mike Murphy is excellent at everything... and I hate it. He’s a sweetheart of a man that I’ve always admired. Him and his wife, Katie, are always down for our adventures - some of the most frequent at Smack Shack and The Parlour! Couldn’t do it without this guy by my side.
Nate McKinney
Groomsman
Nate - the best amateur bartender around. The nicest guy you’ll ever meet, best dog father to Winston the Corgi, married for five years to Cerisa. We’ve both worked at Morries and IDI thanks to one another. I was once standing by his side the day he married Cerisa and am so glad he’ll be by my side when I marry Alex.
Josh May
Groomsman
I’ve known Josh since I was sixteen. I worked for his family as my first full time job assisting with their shop. Cristina, and him have been together since high school and they have a daughter, Emilia ( 1 ). Josh is a talented musician. It's so awesome to have him standing up there with me on our big day.
Ryan Lysne
Groomsman
Ryan has always been like a big brother to me and has taught me a lot since meeting him at the dealership years ago. I can’t believe were getting him out of Hennepin County and we’re grateful to have him and his significant other of 8 years, Melissa, to celebrate our big day.
Nate Engelby
Groomsman
Nate will soon be my brother in law! I’ve always wanted a little brother. When we met I towered over him and now he towers over me. It’s been really cool to watch him grow into an awesome dude. It’s great to have him standing by my side as Alex and I get married.
Mama Meggs
Officiant
No one reminds us of love and unity like Meggan. We met her at our favorite - Pizza Lucé - where you’ll find us every Sunday. She’s become a dear friend over the years that has been supportive since day one. We are truly blessed to have her facilitate our commitment in front of our friends and family in October.
