Maid of Honor
Emily and I met as teaching teammates during my first year at Brownstown Elementary. We have now known each other for over 6 years. Emily is no longer just a co-worker to me but now a close friend that I am thankful for everyday. She is selfless, creative, kind, and inspires me to be a better person. Emily has taught me many things including how to use power tools, that the ideal hour to complete home projects together is 2 am, and how to laugh until you cry. Emily is always there to help me whether its crazy classroom decorating, hanging off my roof to paint my chimney, or almost losing fingers to a table saw. At the wedding you can expect to see her making sure everything goes smoothly and carrying heavier objects than all the men. #Emilycandoanything
Bridesmaid
Natalie and I are cousins and have grown up together. When I reflect on my childhood, many of the memories that I cherish involve her. When we were younger we loved to put on dance routines and plays together that unfortunately were video taped. My holidays are never complete without spending time together and even with the distance of her moving to California, I feel we are still an important piece of each others lives. Natalie is passionate, kind, and always makes me laugh. She is and has always been so much more than a cousin in my life. At the wedding you can expect to find her showing the other guests pictures of her feline child. #catmom
Bridesmaid
Hannah and I have been good friends since high school. She is bubbly, crafty, and a great friend to laugh with. Through the years we have experienced many firsts together like cheerleading, photo shoots, driving, crushes, senior week, and graduation. We also both connected on our love of working with children, eye for the best shopping deals, and enjoyment of home decor. More recently I have had the joy of being by her side on the day she got married and have watched her since make a wonderful family of her own. She is such a kind hearted- wonderful mother to her two boys. On the wedding day you can expect to see Hannah making sure all the decorations look amazing and are picture perfect! #photographyskills
Bridesmaid
Arianne and I met when I got my teaching job at Brownstown Elementary about 6 years ago. We soon became fast friends as I loved her amazing sense of humor and ease to be around. We connect on our love of tasty food, interest in true crime stories, and hatred of flying in airplanes. She is the reason for many new experiences I have had in my life including trips to Atlantic City and a birthday cruise experience. Arianne is the most amazing and supportive friend, she is always doing for others. At the wedding you can expect to see Arianne making lists of everything that needs to be done later that night. #Sheissoorganized
Bridesmaid
Rikki and I met 6 years ago when I started teaching at Brownstown Elementary. Rikki is a Kindergarten teacher at Brownstown and someone who has become one of my closest friends. I have always admired Rikki for her confidence in speaking her mind and supporting her friends. She is my bingo buddy, even though we rarely win, and someone who I can always go to if I need advice. Rikki has also started an exciting new chapter of her life, when she welcomed baby girl Selah in October. She continues to be an amazing friend to me and an even more amazing mom! At the wedding you can expect to see Rikki double checking to make sure the buffet table doesn't have any trace of cole slaw. #coleslawistheenemy
Bridesmaid
Amanda and I met 6 years ago when we both started as new 5th grade teachers at Brownstown Elementary. We have worked together on the same team now for 6 years and have grown from just co-workers to good friends! We laugh together every day and always support each other both inside and outside of the classroom. My life is never boring with Amanda in it! With her I have barely survived a 10-mile Tough Mudder competition, camped several times in the woods with over 70 fifth graders, and endured countless practical jokes. At the wedding you can anticipate seeing Amanda wearing terminator sunglasses on her head #Sheisalwayspreparedforsun
Bridesmaid (In Loving Memory)
Jamie and I met almost 14 years ago when we both worked together at Millers Smorgasbord. Over time we became very close friends and were together all the time. She was so excited about Mike and I's relationship and always talked with me about how she was looking forward to being one of my bridesmaids someday. Sadly, Jamie passed away 2 years ago and wont be able to be with me on our wedding day, although I will forever count her as one of my bridesmaids. I am left with the wonderful memories we shared together including our late night dinners at the diner, driving around singing to music, throwing birthday parties for her nephew, bonfires, beach trips, and her infectious laugh. She was a selfless and irreplaceable friend. On our wedding day you wont see Jamie, but you can expect to feel her presence (especially near the desserts, which we both shared a love of). #Foodfriends
Best Man
Zach and I are cousins and have known each other since the day I was born. Even though we are cousins we feel more like brothers because we are similar in so many ways (it's a Kreisher thing...you wouldn't understand). Zach and I are both goofballs and laugh often when we are together. We share a love of bowling and were known as the dynamic duo "shake and bake". Ever since I was little Zach was someone I looked up to for his cool swagger. He always believed in me and pushed me to be a better person. He is the reason I have the career I do today. At the wedding you can expect to hear lots from Zach as he walks around and makes sure everyone is having a good time. #socialbutterfly
Groomsman
Danny is my younger brother and only sibling. Growing up, we shared a room and spent many nights building forts and playing video games together. I also have fond memories of Danny playing his guitar and rocking out with his band. Even though he is my younger brother, he is someone who I have always gone to for wise advice. I have always respected his level-headedness and ability to remain calm in stressful situations. Danny now has a family of his own and is a father to four young girls. At the wedding you can expect to see Danny enjoying an evening off from being a dad of four. #parentsnightout
Groomsman
I met Zach in high school and have been friends with him for almost 20 years. We have many memories together of beach trips down to Rehobeth and camping at Big Oaks. Together we have fed many seagulls with our Thrasher's french fries. He has always been someone to laugh and drink with (sometimes a bit more than we should have). He has supported me through many ups and down in my life and I could always count on him like a brother. Zach recently has started a family of his own and is the father of two boys. At the wedding you can expect to see Zach taking a break from father duties and hanging very close to the bar. #fathersgonewild
Groomsman
I met Nick when we both worked at Lowes and have known him for about 10 years. We both share a love for fireworks and blowing shit up! Our cookouts and campfires are always a good time and filled with lots of laughter. Nick and I also used to shoot archery together and spent many days at the archery club practicing. These last few years, Ive enjoyed watching Nick become a father and start a family of his own. At the wedding you can expect to see Nick first in line for an ice cold beer. #brewskitime
Groomsman
I met Zach when we both worked at Lowes, and have known him for about 10 years. Even after we both moved on from Lowes, we ended up at the same company again. He just cant get rid of me! When I started dating Hannah, we have gone on several couples trips with Zach and his wife. We went on a trip to Baltimore and to the Poconos! Zach always has a sense of humor and is a great friend. At the wedding you can expect to see Zach asking the bar if they have any Angry Orchards! #anappleadaykeepsthedoctoraway
Groomsman
I met Jack 6 1/2 years ago when I started dating Hannah. The first time I met him was when I met her family for the first time at the Renaissance Faire. As Hannah's little brother I have enjoyed getting to know him over the last couple years. I always feel welcomed by Jack into the family whether it be on a family vacation to the Outer Banks, a weekly trivia night dinner, or a family birthday party. I look forwarded to officially joining the family and having him as a brother in-law. At the wedding you can expect to see Jack showing off his unique dance moves on the dance floor! #cleartheway
Flower Man/ Groomsman
I met Shawn in High School and have been friends with him for almost 20 years. We have enjoyed many cookouts and drinking nights together, as well as trips to the beach. More recently Shawn has become a riding buddy of mine as we both enjoy getting out on our motorcycles. When we do get a chance to ride together its always a good time! Shawn is a great friend and always a phone call away when needed. At the wedding you can expect to see Shawn channeling his feminine side as he fulfills his flower man duties. #realmenthrowflowers
Beer Bearer/ Groomsman
I met Nate in High School and have known his for close to 20 years. We have shared many great times together at our numerous cookouts and trips to Hershey park. We also recently jammed out together at a Motley Crue concert that we went to with my parents. I can go awhile without seeing Nate, and then when we hangout its like no time has past. He is a great friend and is always someone who is kindhearted. At the wedding you can expect to see him making sure everyone has a drink in hand. #beerbearer
