Rachael & Greg
Party People
Cody Coile
Best Man
Cody, aka CoCo, is Greg’s little brother and best friend. They grew up sharing a bedroom and to this day are very close. From hunting trips, mountain biking in Arkansas, cruising around town on motorcycles, to shredding the fresh pow in Colorado - there’s not an adventure these two would pass up. Cody and Greg have more in common than their favorite hobbies - they even work together at the fire department and co-own a small business together! They look alike, sound the same and have similar mannerisms, you might even confuse them as twins! If you ever hear the term “nice Coile” they are referring to Cody, although Greg swears they have that wrong. Either way, Greg is lucky to have Cody stand by his side as his Best Man.
Mari Gault
Maid of Honor
Matron of Honor and Sister of the Bride. aka Merrrobyn, Merny, sissy poo. Like Yin and Yang - Mari- Robyn and Rachael are opposites but compliment each other in the best ways, truly a perfect sister friendship. Although neither can recall the exact moment they met, Mari has always been there for her little sister - driving her around (or letting Rach borrow the car) before she had a license, making sure she had lunch money when their mom forgot, bossing her around, giving her motivational pep talks, finishing her homework, drinking all the jager and coke backs at the local watering hole (Lucky Lous, surprised?), lending an ear for Rachael to vent, and most importantly always making sure she is taken care of and always has the best. Rachael is lucky to call Mari-Robyn not only her sister, but best friend.
Jon Kadlubar
Groomsman
Cousin Jon, never just “Jon”. Greg and Cousin Jon grew up in Ennis together and have been partners in crime since an early age. They spent their childhood together hunting, fishing, playing soccer and getting the jeep stuck and unstuck. One time even spent an entire week to get the Jeep freed from a dried lake bottom. Cousin Jon and Greg were also roommates when they made the move to Denton to attend UNT, where they made more mischievous memories together. These two still chat at least once a week, make time for their weekly lunch dates and help each other any time they are working on “stuff”.
Hannah Masten
Bridesmaid
Hannah and Rachael met where a lot of cool people meet in Denton, the Lucky Lou's. They initially met on the Lou's bus going to a Ranger's game, but their friendship really blossomed when they ran into eachother again a few weeks later at the North Texas Homecoming pregame... again at Lou's - that place really is lucky! When Rachael spotted Hannah, in all white like a true angel, she knew they had to be friends. And so began a friendship full of tequila, day dates and nights out on the town, LSA hummus, black (sometimes blue + green) lipsticks, Oktoberfest shenanigans, slumber parties and brunch in bed. These two are always down for a good time. Hannah ALWAYS has Rachael's back in any situation and gives the best advice. In short, Hannah is Rachael's Ride or Die BFF.
Jake Krause
Groomsman
Jake, “Axel”, became Greg’s friend and eventually roommate when they worked at Lucky Lou’s. Jake and Greg could be found most nights working the back bar at Lou’s - which was not an area designed for 500 lbs of man, but the two made it look like a fine ballet. The whiskey shots may have had something to do with it. The two of them spent many days sitting poolside drinking fireball minis and chunking the fris. They also attended a lot of rock concerts together. Jake would drink Coronas at a rock concert… weird.
Tracy Ukegbu
Bridesmaid
Tracy and Rachael's friendship is a true love at first sight story. Back in 2011, Tracy spontaneously decided to move to Vegas for a few months, but decided it was time to move back home to Texas just in time for UNT Homecoming. When Tracy called Kelsi, a mutual friend, to let her know she was driving straight through and would be there for Tavern's last call, Rachael was apprehensive thinking "man, this girl seems crazy..driving 18 hours to come "watch" a football game?" and "why is she talking so fast, what is she even talking about??" Hours later, Tracy and Rachael are taking shots together. Days later, they are sharing clothes and apartments. Weeks later, they are celebrating their December birthdays (#sagitarrius) together. And years later, well here we are :) Gauntlet and Ukabooboo forever!
Jordan Dickey
Groomsman
Jordan, aka Bam Bam or Dickface, is one of G-Co’s old roomies and lifelong best friends. They met while working at Lucky Lou’s and spent their days enjoying Ranger’s games and seeing how fast they could get Jordan’s Cadillac up to- which according to Greg’s memory was 165. They are both eager to help each other with house projects like tree trimming (almost killed Greg), brush clearing (almost killed Greg), house remodeling, or any of the other infinite projects they have going on.
Emily Carpenter
Bridesmaid
From random college roommate to life long best friend. Emily and Rachael met the day they moved in to a student apartment together at UNT. After an initial 10 second disagreement of who needed the room with "the better lighting" , they instantly became friends - even sharing closets that same night! Emily and Rachael have made it through a lot of life events together- graduating college, getting "big girl jobs and going on big girl dates" like Em's Mom would say, Emily getting married to her wonderful husband Mike, raising crazy quarantine puppies, Rachael and Greg getting engaged, and Emily&Mike having their first baby boy! Back in the day you could find Emily and Rachael (and Mike) watching all the Disney movies and sipping on champagne. Now that they've grown older you can find them watching Disney movies, sipping champagne, playing with their now slightly less crazy dogs and loving on sweet baby boy Austin! Emily is Rachael's Ice Cube to her Ice Tea! <3
Justin Dubose
Groomsman
Justin Grasshopper DBO Dubose and Greg became friends one night while Greg was making fun of Justin's adult drink choices- would you like some whiskey with your coke and ice? Since then they have had many more drinks together, were roommates for 4 years, and are still best of friends. They found a common hobby in trying to “GET BIG”. Whether in the gym, on the patio or anywhere else, when these two find themselves together they are constantly laughing at the other's expense and calling each other idiot. The true sign of friendship.
Chimaroke Oneybuchi
Bridesman
Tequila slangin', body rollin', taco tourin', fashion makin' son of gun. Another friendship sparked at Lou's (and my parents told me I'd never meet anyone at a bar, HA!) Chimaroke and Rachael are two peas in a pod. It all started when Rachael became obssesed with PacSun summer of 2012.. Chima worked at the Denton location and luckily for him, Rachael liked to make daily mall visits. It didn't take long to realize they hung out at the same spots and had a lot of mutual friends, which isn't uncommon for Denton. A few years later they became neighbors... this led to hours of Disney movies, *Twilight* (#teamEdward) planning out unicorn tattoos( it only took 5 years to finally get them) , and endlessly flowing Monte Alban. Now that Chimaroke is living his best life in Californ - I- A, with his soon to be gorgeous wife Marcy, they don't get to see each other often, but the party always picks up right where it left off- besties4lyfe <3
Layne Malone
Groomsman
Layne Malone and Greg’s relationship began at Lucky Lou’s when Layne challenged Greg to an unprovoked whiskey drinking contest. Ask Layne how that went. They worked several years together behind the bar at Lous and have become best friends. Layne has become part of the family, an honorary Coile, and even included in the family group text. Layne was head of Marketing for Coile Bros Draft Services when the company began and now that he has moved on, is Greg’s unofficial financial advisor.
Christin Coile
Bridesmaid
Long before there was a Greg and Rachael, there was a Rachael and Christin! Rachael and Christin met at Lous, shortly after Christin began dating her now husband, COCO, Greg's little brother, and after many nights spent watching Christin rap and dance everywhere she goes, the two became thick as thieves. Christin is always there to keep Rachael motivated and send kind and thoughtful random texts throughout the week. The ultimate cheerleader - which is fitting, since this is one of her *many* jobs.. our little busy bee!! Christin and Rachael have more in common than a shared taste for Coile men - she has met her match when it comes to planning! Both are detailed, organized and master spreadsheet-ers! They've referred to each other as sisters for years, and now it's time to make it official!
Shaun Johnson
Groomsman
Shaun, also referred to as Head, and Greg began their friendship in a yelling match. They quickly got over their disagreement over a beer and have been friends since. Shaun has aided Greg many times while driving the Lucky Lou’s party bus with music selection and unsolicited navigation assistance. But he's also been a true and reliable friend for life. Mike Tyson better hope he never runs into these two on the streets.
Veronica Coile
Bridesmaid
Shortly after Rachael and Greg began dating, Rachael began to hear all about his baby sister, Veronica. Stories that made meeting her an intimidating experience; the Veronica in Greg's stories was feisty! Upon meeting, Rachael loved and bonded with Veronica instantly! Greg's stories hadn't quite done Veronica justice-- she's definitely fiesty, but she's also incredibly personable, friendly, and kind! The two have been friends since their very first meeting, and have fun no matter what they do together. Like most sisters do, they spend most of their time together laughing! Rachael is so excited to officially gain Veronica, her Partner in Crime 😉, as a sister this November!
Sophie Coile
Flower Girl
Officially Sophie-Pilla Cheesecake Coile, and also known as - WiggleButt, Little Squirrel, Pretty Girl, and Sophie Bear. There's not much to say about the GOODEST GIRL ever! If you know her, you love her.. if you don't, well I'm sorry.
Lesley LaBarba
Officiant
Rachael met Lesley through a mutual friend, Taylor James, many years ago, and instantly knew she gained a friend. What she didn't know, however, was that she was also gaining a mother! Lesley has always been the "mother" figure in their group. The first to take care of someone, thoughtful to a fault, always willing to help in whatever way she can-- Lesley is a jewel of a human, who is loyal to all of her friends! Since becoming friends, Rachael and Lesley have been on many adventures together and their friendship has grown even closer during recent years. When it came to choosing someone to perform the marriage ceremony, it wasn't a choice: it had to be Lesley.
