Madison has known the bride for her whole life. Growing up in the same crazy family, they share innumerable memories. Madison is excited to gain a brother in Evan and to spend all night on the dance floor! Fun fact: Madison is the bride's favorite sister.
Gillian Preuss

Gillian is excited for Evan to be an official member of the family. She looks forward to being a part of their special day! Fun fact: Gillian is the bride's favorite sister.
Amanda Snyder
Bridesmaid
My name is Amanda. I have been best friends with the bride for 14 years, but have known the groom even longer - we met in 3rd grade! Meghan and I love road trips together, trying new food and wine, talking for hours about anything and everything, and watching our favorite bands and teams play. If you see me at the wedding, I love champagne... so let's raise a glass to the bride and groom together!
Becca Abbate
Bridesmaid
Hi my name is Becca! I've been married to my husband, Jack, going on 2 years. We have a son named Ben who is the light of our lives! I work as an occupational therapist in a local school district. I met Meghan in our sorority, Alpha Delta Pi, when we attended Oakland University. We clicked right away and have been best friends ever since! We have so many fun memories from college, but what I love most is that we have stayed close through all the stages of our lives since. Meghan stood by my side as a bridesmaid when I got married and now I'm honored to stand by her side on her big day! I am so happy for Meghan and Evan and can't wait to celebrate their love :)
Samantha Griebe
Bridesmaid
Hi I'm Sam. I'm mom to a rambunctious 3 year old boy who makes sure there's never a dull moment! I'm a (future) SLP and love working with kids. In what little free time I have, I love dancing and naps. I could eat my weight in french toast, and drink all the coffee! I met Meghan in my sophomore year at OU. Little did I know she'd later become by big sister (I love my ADPi) and make such an impact on my life. She has always been there for me no matter what, whether it was dropping everything for a call at 3am or just being there to chat and grab a coffee. She showed me what it means to be there for someone, and I'm so honored that she asked me to stand beside her on her special day! Love you big!
Matia Rourke
Bridesmaid
My name is Matia. I am the baby of my family. I'm a young college student studying business and playing soccer for my school. The game is my life! When I'm off the field, I love to be with friends, paint, read/write poetry, and binge watch a good show. I love to spend time with my family when we are given the opportunity. Family is super important to me, and I am just so excited to have Meghan be a part of it all!
Tony Borowski
Best Man
When Mark and Evan (or Tony Hawk and RamJam as their friends call them) met, it was love at first sight. Ever since their eyes locked in that magical moment, the two have been best friends. They were roommates for many years in college, where they spent their time together hanging out on the roof, going to The Feed, and listening to Thrift Shop on repeat. Tony now lives far, far away in Washington, DC but the pair still stay connected through video games, vacations, and book clubs. Tony wants to wish RamJam and Meghan a lifetime of happiness together filled with love, laughter, and long, frequent visits from himself. Love you guys!
Brennan Rourke
Groomsman
I've known Evan since I was a baby, and I couldn't be more fortunate to have him as a role model. I'm blessed to say he found someone who can handle his nonsense so I don't have to anymore. Right Evnar?
Griffen Rourke
Groomsman
As the youngest brother, I had the benefit of learning from all the mistakes those two prototypes before me made. Unfortunately for me, they did not make many. I blame them for the way I turned out. I am just surprised that there is someone out there who loves reading books as much, if not MORE than Evan. These two bookworms have a chemistry together that makes me regret not paying attention in science class. Cheers to Meghan and Evan, I could not be happier for them both.
Mike Shay
Groomsman
Shay and RamJam met in 2015 through the rugby team, when RamJam returned to campus with a Tony sized hole in his heart that needed filling. With a mutual fondness for porch drinking and enjoying more than 4 years of college, the two soon became good friends. This friendship continued after their eventual graduations, and Shay can still be found mixing it up with Tony and RamJam when the world isn't in a pandemic. Ever since meeting Meghan it has been clear to Shay that Meghan was both a great person and a great influence on RamJam. He is honored to join them on their special day and wishes them a lifetime of happiness and joy in their marriage.
C.J. Stock
Groomsman
C.J. and Evan forged their friendship as rugby pals and de facto roommates in the Ann Arbor student slums in 2011. A year later, they formalized their commitment to each other and became genuine lease-mates. Their bitter rivalry in living room wrestling led to a high degree of mutual respect between the two young men, and the friendship flourished. C.J. has reportedly trained for their next rematch every weekend for the past four years. He is relieved to have an excuse to take one off this October and is deeply honored to be a part of this important celebration for Evan and Meghan.
Dave Hiltzik
Groomsman
Dave is a medical student and washed-up rugby player, residing in Metro Detroit. He has the normal number of fingers and toes and is slightly above average at croquet. He is very excited to be a part of Evan and Meghan's wedding and to see what the future has in store for these crazy kids.
