Wedding Party

Elsa Kehrer

Mother of the Groom

William, My Second son. The day I found I was pregnant of you made my world brighter. Who would have known moving to Streamwood you would find your true love a house down. There is so many good memories I had with you, Like when you were a baby and you would always stop what you were doing and smile at me. Then as a kid, going to your baseball games and soccer games cheering you on! Now that you are an adult I love cheering you on with the life you made for yourself. I am so proud of the man you are today. The first moment you both were playing and hanging out I knew that you found the love of your life. Seeing you both grow up with each other and see the love that you both share makes my heart happy and full of joy. Amanda, you always felt like another child to me. I couldn't be more happier that my son has someone like you to have in his life. I cant wait for the day you guys become one. I love you both so much and Mama will always be here for you both. Love Mom.

Amanda and Bee, I have watched you two grow together from womb - today. Elsa and I spent many days together as you both were kicking our bellies and us discussing how it would be cool if these two babies ended up as best friends...... and you did. As babies we would lay you both together in a crib or in a pack and play for a nap while the parents(and older siblings ) would hang out and enjoy some of the best times in our neighborhood. We would talk about how funny it would be if you two ended up dating or even married.. Little did we know. Lol I don't think I've ever seen a day that you two didn't see or talk to each other in all these years. To see you two happy and so connected with all this history is so unique and precious. You don't hear stories like yours...I think my favorite memory is when Amanda was grounded and I went looking for you and I found you and Bee in a lawn mower box down by the curb. Lol I'm so happy I snapped a picture of that. Even then nothing could keep you both apart. I love you both and wish you a lifetime of happiness and silliness to keep the ups and downs of marriage balanced. I will always be here for the both of you through all of it! Love, Mom

Amanda and Bee, Looking back watching the two of you growing up together has been special. You've never left each other side after all these years and that is a strong bond to have as you get ready to enter the next stage of your lives together. Wish you all the best and love you both! Love, Dad

Tiffany King

Matron of Honor

AHHHH Bee and Amanda ! finally you two are getting married! I Can't believe it. It felt like just yesterday seeing you both hanging out on the sidewalk. I don't think there was a day you both weren't together. Your love story is definitely something you read out of a book or watch in a movie. To see you both date for so long and stayed together throughout the years shows that your love stands the test of time, growing stronger with each passing year, serving as a lasting connection. something I've learned with marriage is patience, understanding one another and remember its the problem against you two, not each other. I'm always here for you guys ! Congratulations!!!! I love you both so so much !

Bridesmaid

Amanda, I cant remember a time that you weren't in my life. You always felt like a sister to me. I cherish our friendship together and us bonding over the same interests. I love how we can just hang out and enjoy each others company.. We have created so many memories together like, family trips, trips to the mall, going to the movies, going to Round 1 or just hanging out back at home listening to music and just chilling. I just love being goofy with you and having a good time. I am so glad Bee has found the love of his life! BEE, where can I start.. You are one of a kind special human. It feels just like yesterday I would beg you to play Minecraft with me and you would finally agree to play with me, Then handed me a disconnected control. Or the times You and I would fight while we are out with Tiffany and she would make use hold each others hand until we said sorry to each other. Now being adults I STILL beg you to play game with me, But I do cherish the times when we actually do play game together. I am so proud of the man you are today. Amanda and You are perfect for each other. I am in tears that the day is almost here. I love you both so very much. Love Emily

Amanda and I first met at Tiffany and Jared's wedding in 2023. I'll admit that night is a little fuzzy for me. Since then, We've grown closer and made so many great memories together. It has been such a joy getting to know Amanda over the past few years. From the start, It's always been so clear how kind, caring and genuine she is. I really admire how she makes everyone feel so welcomed and comfortable. Some of my favorite memories with Amanda include our weekend trip to Starved Rock State Park, spending New Year's eve together and even our late nights staying in playing board games until 2AM. Especially when we played the game of life, Which now feels like it was hinting at you and Bee all along! I am so happy to be part of your special day and to celebrate you and Bee. You both deserve all the happiness in the world. Congratulations, and I wish you a lifetime of love and happiness together ! Love, Sophia

Erica Torres

Bridesmaid

I met Amanda as a toddler. She was so sweet and shy. She lived a few houses down from me so we were able to grow up around each other. Amanda became part of our lives even more when Bee and her seemed to become best friends as kids. They were always together and I was always with Bee's older sister. Although Amanda and I were not close, I think due to our age gap, I was able to see her grow up. I witnessed Amanda and Bee learn to love each other as they got older up until this day. I am truly honored and blessed to be apart of their big day and be part of the family. Amanda you are an amazing person and you are marrying a great man. I wish you both an amazing life! Cheers to many years of love and happiness. Love you Both, Erica

Amanda and Bee, It's been an honor to know both of you, and even greater honor to watch your love grow throughout the years. Your love is something truly special that not many people get to experience, and its such a joy to celebrate it with you both! I wish you a lifetime full of happiness, laughter and endless love. Cheers to you both! <3

Alondra Manjarrez

Bridesmaid

When I met Amanda we were both extremely shy to talk to each other. We weren't quite sure what to talk about. However as time has gone on and we've opened up more and we view her as part of the family. Amanda is an amazing friend with a pure heart. It's so easy and fun to be around her and she's one of those people who truly listens to you when you talk. She's truly one of the kindest people I've met. I honestly wish we would've talked sooner. But I'm so glad we got here. I'm so happy for you and so excited to celebrate this next chapter with you. You deserve all the happiness in the world ! <3

Brandon Kehrer

Best Man

From early on you found your better half and stuck with her. I'm sure for anyone who grew up with us on our street we all thought the same thing "these two weridos are perfect for each other". And here we are ready to celebrate just that, growing up and sharing a room with B throughout our childhood was nothing short but a roller coaster ride. From late night gaming, to simply hanging out and losing track of time. That room will always hold the best memories of my life. Growing up along side him from the toys to gaming to random hobbies we pick up and now workforce is such an amazing thing to think about for me. And throughout it all Amanda was always there, She always had your back, cared for you and loved you. What more can a brother ask? To know that through thick and thin they will always be there for each other. And now I have been given the absolute honor and pleasure to be your best man at your wedding. Cheers little brother and Amanda! This day can't come soon enough ! <3

Groomsman

My Goat And my other brain cell. The BIG day is creeping up ! Bee it felt like yesterday we were on the same team playing baseball. Then to finally reconnecting and playing fortnite together. I am so happy the friendship we have created throughout the years. I am so grateful to have you as a brother in law. It has been one wild ride on this journey we call life. But I'm glad I get to have another brother to do it with. Amanda, you are lucky you got to him first. LOL But all jokes aside, you have always felt like family. I'm glad Bee has you in his life, I guess second best is alright. Okay, NOW I'm kidding. But truly I am grateful for you and the friendship we have created as well throughout the years. Thank you both for everything you have done for Tiffany, Ariana and I. One thing I learned about marriage is SHE IS ALWAYS RIGHT, Don't argue about it. But mostly Remember the love you have for one in another when facing a problem or argument. Congratulations to you both! Love ya guys !

I've Known Bee my entire life, He's more like a brother then just a cousin. Growing up we would spend the weekends at our grandparents house, running around with nerf guns and convincing ourselves that we were surviving a zombie apocalypse. Looking back, we probably took those missions way to seriously. We played lots of soccer together and many late nights of gaming during sleepovers. When we weren't doing that, we were usually wrestling each other or teaming up to mess with his brother Brandon -I'd say we gave Brandon some character development over the years. We also went to Road of America to watch races and those memories I will always hang onto. If I had to describe Bee, I'd say he's got a great sense of humor, Positive and a caring personality. I've know Amanda for years now, and I'm so happy Bee has someone to put up with him for life. In all seriousness, I couldn't be happier for the both of you. You both truly deserve the world! Love you Bee

William or better known as Bee, Where to begin, I could start of by saying thank you for this wonder honor but also not only for being my best friend or cool cousin but an older brother to me. From us being up till 6am, to just chilling outside your house. To talking and eating McChicken's or just being stupid together. You proposed to your now fiancée in front of me, and let me tell you, I was waiting for a long time for this day, the waterworks just started!!I couldn't be happier for you guys. Regardless I am beyond happy for you, Don't worry about anything at this time and don't forget to have fun! Amanda, I know you guys were going to get married at some point, it was only a matter of time. You are Bees perfect other half. You match his humor and his personality. You've always had his back when he had yours, and if that not a bond I don't know what is. I hope you guys have a blessed marriage with full of wonderful exciting adventures. I know you guys will be fine, and kick life's butt. You've guys done it before and you sure as heck can do it again. Always thank you for having me be a apart of your special day. It's an absolute pleasure and honor to celebrate with you both! Love you both congratulations !
