They refer to each other as their "school wife" because of all the hours they spent studying, on the phone, or texting each other during class :). Alex would not have made it through without April's constant, unwavering support. Alex couldn't imagine her big day without her school wife by her side!

Abe Walikainen
Best Man
Abe is Zach's older brother. In their younger years they were soccer referees and worked at Target. As they've gotten older they've really come to appreciate each other. Their favorite thing to do together is play hours of video games early in the morning on the weekends. They specifically enjoy robbing people in GTA and setting things virtually on fire. They both enjoy a nice glass of Tarnished Truth whiskey and laughing at something ridiculous their mom said. When Zach was choosing his groomsmen, it was a no-brainier Abe receive the honor as his "best dude".
Winston Diggs
Groomsman
Winston and Zach became close friends when they both worked at Target. Winston actually trained Zach on the sales floor. Of course, they participated and led many shenanigans including dumping full shopping carts behind clothes, riding the forklift in the back room, and eating candy they did not purchase. They always have a great time drinking margaritas and tearing up the track in Mario Kart. Winston is one of Zach's oldest friends and we're so happy he gets to join Zach on this awesome day.
Amy Hinshaw
Groomswoman
Amy and Zach met in college in their Mechanical Engineering classes. Amy is always known for being the life of the party, using paper plates with proper silverware, and chasing her whiskey with Gatorade. Zach would not have gotten through college without Amy dragging him to happy hour before class. Together they like to gossip, watch girly shows, and go golfing. In fact, Amy is a pro at drinking and driving the golf cart. Amy is a ride or die friend, she is the perfect addition to Zach's side as a Groomswoman.
Joe Hinshaw
Groomsman
Zach met Joe when he started dating Amy. Through the years they've played a lot of golf, a lot of Uno, and have had lots of laughs. Joe is always the life of the party and can make anyone laugh til they can't breathe. He's great at taking shots and singing karaoke at all hours of the night. You can often find him sleeping in the corner with playing cards being thrown at him. Amy and Joe are great together because they are always down for anything, anytime. Joe is great hype man and is a wonderful addition to round out Zach's grooms party!

Groomsman
Zach and Colin met through the wonderful friendship of Alex and Stephanie. Their friendship was formed during a lot of double dates to breweries and brunch. They love talking about beer, golf, video games and of course whatever fun activities Alex and Stephanie force them to enjoy with them. Colin's calm yet hilarious demeanor is the perfect addition to round up Zach's best dudes.
