Danielle & Rachel
Wedding Party
Olivia Krumwiede
Maid of Honor
Olivia is Danielle's maid of honor. Danielle's favorite memory with Olivia is when they traveled to Switzerland together. This was a huge trip for both of them, and they created many amazing memories. They had an amazing tour guide (Thomas) and met many amazing friends along the way!
Betty VanDamme
Matron of Honor
Betty is Rachel's matron of honor. Rachel's favorite memories with Betty, among their many hijinks growing up together, were when they got tattoos together. Rachel got her first tattoo, Lady Justice, for Betty's 30th birthday, and both of Rachel's sisters went together to get D20 die tattoos in memory of their late brother, Ben. That's when Rachel also got her mini Stay Puft tattoo. Betty has a lot of ink. Ask her about it.
Jordan Kraak
Bridesman
Jordan is Danielle's bridesman. Danielle's favorite memory with Jordan was when they were kids they had a couple friends over and Jordan was riding a dirt bike. Danielle, in attempt to run away from Jordan, ran into the yard and closed the gate behind her. This caused Jordan to run into the fence and the entire fence breaking. Their mom was not happy, but they had the time of their lives.
Becky DeWitt
Bridesmaid
Becky is Rachel's bridesmaid. Rachel's favorite moments with Becky while working together at the City of Green Bay Law Department, were when Rachel and Becky shared the same compassionate, yet "don't eff with me" outlook on life. While Becky has switched jobs, she is still the kindest, most understanding, and most sweary "work wife" Rachel has had the pleasure to work with.
Kayla Olson
Bridesmaid
Kayla is Danielle's bridesmaid. Danielle's favorite memory with Kayla centers on one time when they were driving and passed an RV that was pulling a car. Kayla didn't realize the car was attached to the RV and pointed out how rude the car was for "riding the RVs ass." Once she discovered the RV was pulling the car they shared several laughs and Danielle, to this day, sends pictures to Kayla when she sees an RV pulling a car.
Andrew Villiesse
Bridesman
Andrew ("V") is Rachel's bridesman. Rachel's favorite memory with V, whose friendship reaches back to kindergarten, was when they would ride their bikes over 12 miles roundtrip to Prange Way to buy pogs and the coolest pog slammers known to man. While in 6th and 7th grade, the freedom to roam and be independent was as exhilarating as the quality time Rachel and V got to spend together.
Thomas Defago
Bridesman
Thomas is Danielle's bridesman. Danielle's favorite memory with Thomas is when she visited him in Switzerland. She especially enjoyed playing drinking games with everyone in Thomas' kitchen and introducing all of them to our crazy midwestern drinking games. They went out later that night and upon arrival back at Thomas apartment, they were yelled at by the landlord for being too loud and had to hide to make sure she didn't see them.
Samantha Filoso
Bridesmaid
Samantha is Rachel's bridesmaid. Rachel's favorite memory with Samantha was in May of 2020 when Rachel flew out to Arizona, and Rachel and Samantha were able to spend a couple of days hiking in the fresh air of some of the higher elevation parts of Arizona. After meeting each other through advocacy work, it was a blast spending a few days joking around and getting to know each other on a more personal level.
Sarah Reasoner
Bridesmaid
Sarah is Danielle's bridesmaid. Danielle's favorite memory with Sarah was when Danielle had a very special birthday cake made for Sarah. They were having one of their wine nights with the "wine friends" crew, and it also happened to be Sarah's birthday. Danielle made sure to find the worst picture she could find of Sarah and have it blown up and put on a photo cake. Sarah's reaction was priceless and her laugh was contagious. These moments of levity were much needed during the stress of pharmacy school.
Tiffany Stanley
Bridesmaid
Tiffany is Rachel's bridesmaid. Rachel's favorite memory with Tiffany was during one of Tiffany's visits to Green Bay. The two spent the day driving around the city and had the opportunity to see the artwork of artist Rae Senarighi, which happened to be on display at the time at the University of Wisconsin Green Bay. The gallery was very powerful, and it meant even more to Rachel to be able share the experience with a close friend.
