Wedding Party
The best time to make friends is before you need them.
-Ethel Barrymore
These are the people we hold near and dear to our ♥hearts♥
Laura Bailey
maid of honor
Laura is the bride's younger sister and quite possibly the most adorable girl in St. Louis! She is 17 (a youngin) and attends Ritenour High School and has big plans for after graduation. She loves to travel to far away places and can kick butt at Rummy. Her biggest fear is tripping down the aisle and can't wait to show you her moves on the dance floor!
Tommy Dorsey
Best Man
Tommy and Josh were supposed to be brothers, but somebody missed the memo. They have known each other since grade school and have lived together for over five years now. Tommy is the master of dance and has to have patience when teaching Josh. These boys also love to have jam sessions....and once their fingers get sore they move onto video games! Tommy has volunteered to be the entertainment for the night, and yes...he'll teach you the dances.
Katie Recker
bridesmaid
Katie and Christina met in highschool, and have gone through 6 dislocated knees, 3 broken toes, several sprained wrists, and two weeks in the hospital because her knee was the size of Atlanta. Thoughout the injuries the girls have shared many laughs and many mexican cheese dips. They love traveling together, and Katie is to blame for Christina's obsession with scrapbooking. Wish them luck on their grueling journey to get in shape for this wedding!
Jeremiah Baker
groomsman
Not only do these two share a last name, they share a mother and father too! That's right, Jeremiah is Josh's younger brother and spends most of his time trying to convince Josh to take up World of Warcraft. Jeremiah is a self-declared badass that recently graduated and is working for MSSC.
Erin Drayton
bridesmaid
Erin and Christina have been friends forever...after several baseball games, several vacations, several car accidents, and several dance offs they have declared that they are like Sonny and Cher....ok apart but so much better together! Erin is a teacher in Warrenton, MO and also coaches soccer. The girls share an unhealthy obsession with the Cardinals and Applebees. Erin's super excited to be the one Christina calls when she is having a bridezilla moment!
Randy Diestelhorst
groomsman
Joshua and Randy are cousins, and were roomates for over three years. In that time, the boys had many laughs and millions of Halo tournaments. In his spare time Randy enjoys doing kart wheels off dirtbikes, playing video games, working on four wheelers, building sparkler bombs, and going to bed in the middle of parties. Randy recently moved to South County and keeps in contact with Josh mainly through Xbox Live. He is most looking forward to doing his signature "commando crawl" during the reception.
Sarah Kircher
bridesmaid
Christina met Sarah at Southeast Missouri State when they became roomates....they knew they would get along because they both loved photoshoots, bargain hunting, and margaritas. After moving almost three times in one semester the girls knew they had to stick together no matter what. Sarah enjoys boating, fashion, and rapping to missy elliot. Sarah is most looking forward to the open bar!
Joey Boente
groomsman
Joey and Josh are step-brothers and obviously met when Josh's mom, Marsha began dating Joe Boente. Josh and Joey are just quiet, wholesome, goody goodies who enjoy things like writing their names in gasoline, riding crazy horses, throwing boulders off of bluffs, cussing, and karaoke. Joey is in college in Minnesota and studying to be a vet. Joey's biggest fear isn't tripping down the isle or forgetting his necktie....it's catching the garter!
Sally Spickard
bridesmaid
Sally and Christina met in college while living next to one another in New Hall. They enjoyed doing laundry together and going to get eggrolls, except when Sally would get mistaken for an employee. She also shared Christina's obsession for baseball and Samantha Jones. Currently Sally is working part time as a craddle-robber and hopes to one day be a professional horse rider. Sally plans to be the life of the party by bringing the greatest hits of Ace of Base.
Daniel Wolff
groomsman
Oh...words can not describe Daniel....wait, yes they can. Good timin, fun lovin, red bull drinkin, outrageous ol boy. Josh and Daniel have been friends since high school, and know that they can count on one another for anything. Like picking them up when they are stranded, or bailing them out of jail! Daniel's hobbies include dragging grown men by their suspenders, rolling vehicles, fixin up houses, four wheeling and simply rolling dirty. Daniel aspires to be Donald Trump, but without the hair. Daniel is hoping to find his dream women at the reception.
Crystal Powelson
bridesmaid
Christina met Crystal while living in New Hall, but became very close with her after joining Gamma Phi Beta sorority. Crystal was Christina's sorority mother, although she quit shortly after. Crystal is living in Kansas City and attending grad school. The girls shared many memories while living together, including but not limited to all their pizza parties, gossiping, political debates, and chatting on facebook while sitting next to one another. The girls also worked together at the library.
Nick Welling
groomsman
Nick and Josh have also known one another since high school, and if you get them together you can hear all about the good ol' days or at least about how one of them needs to buy a boat so they can catch bigger fish. Nicks spends his time calling dinosaurs, buying guns, trapping, wearing camo, and driving a big Ford. However, he does NOT enjoy redneck jokes. Nick was most concerned with the wedding being during hunting season, and having a parking lot to do burn outs in.
