Amy and Ashley have friends since the first day of LCC freshman year religion class. Amy and Ashley have made so many unforgettable memories, and cannot wait for many more to come. Ashley was Amy's maid of honor and now Amy will be Ashley's matron of honor. Amy lives in Lima with her husband, Andy (one of Matt's groomsmen), and her two little girls, Brooklynn and Adalynn (Ashley's flower girls).

Jon is Matt's younger brother by four years. Although their relationship can often be defined by "boys being boys" moments of combat about complete nonsense, they ultimately could not have a closer friend in the world than each other. Jon graduated from Shawnee and also attended the University of Toledo, studying Sales and Marketing. He loves Ohio State, Cleveland Indians and paying off debt by following the scriptures of Dave Ramsey. If you ever need a ride around Lima, Jon moonlights as a Lyft extraordinaire.

Jenna and Ashley met on a walking tour of Miami University while Ashley was wearing her "Senior's '04" shirt. That moment was best friends at first sight and college roommates for the next four years. Ashley was Jenna's maid of honor and now Jenna will be standing next to Ashley as matron of honor. Jenna and her (growing) family live in Boston.

Evan is Matt's brother-in-law and married Matt's sister, Rachel, also Ashley and Matt's officiant, in 2016. Evan has fit in with the family since day one, with his wit and wry humor making him formidable force in any Keske discussion. He has a heart of gold and truly become a second brother to Matt and Jon over the years. Evan is attending the University of Syracuse online for his masters and dabbles in soccer podcasts, local sports broadcasting and has a sick obsession for all things Kentucky Wildcats.

Kristin and Ashley met at Abercrombie & Fitch. Ashley took over Kristin's role as Kristin moved onto bigger and better things. Kristin and Ashley, both cat fur-baby owners (not crazy cat ladies), can't pin-point that one special day they became friends, but know it is meant to be that they did. Kristin currently lives in Columbus.

Mike also went to Shawnee, and played both baseball and football with Matt, however, their friendship really developed over the past years over marathon sessions of NHL Hockey and Rocket League on Xbox One. Even when Matt was living in North Carolina, he could hop online and play games and chat with Mike and the boys. Since he's been home, Matt and Mike like to golf, watch Ohio State sports and celebrate annual Star Wars movie ritual. Mike owns and operates his own Construction and Foundation repair business in Lima.

Lyndsay and Ashley both attended Miami University, however, their friendship did not start until their first day of big girl work at Abercrombie & Fitch. Lyndsay and Ashley bonded quickly, not only able to talk each other off the ledge as coworkers, but as friends outside of work. Ashley was a bridesmaid in Lyndsay's wedding. Lyndsay and her husband live in Columbus.

Andy and Matt began their tight-knot friendship during their days as linebackers on the Shawnee High School football team. Two of a handful of guys to dress every varsity game for four years, Andy and Matt shared a lot of blood, sweat and tears as they laid the foundation of what became a pretty good run for Shawnee in the 2000's. They both rocked matching mohawks, took trip to amusement parks together and even had a curiously long winning streak ion backroom euchre. Today Andy and Matt love to meet up and golf any chance they get, and it was over a 19th hole beverage or two where Andy first mentioned that Matt should "hit up one of Amy's friends" if he was looking for a good girl. Gotta give him credit, it turned out to be a damn good call!

Alicia and Ashley have been friends since first grade at St. Gerard's. Alicia's house was Ashley's first sleepover (which Ashley had to tell their teacher Mrs. Rode about), which little did they know that would lead to friends for life. Oh, and 6th grade basketball champs! Ashley was a bridesmaid in Alicia's wedding. Alicia and her family live in Columbus.

Tate is Ashley's step-brother, so he hasn't know Matt for quite as long, but their friendship is already strong with the force. They both share an unhealthy passion for all things Star Wars related and general video game nerd stuff. As a former athlete himself, Tate and Matt would make a formidable touch football team combo, so we'll have to keep them separated so they don't all Wedding Crashers on the opposition. We certainly see some swan dive and cannonball contests in Ashley's dad and step-mom's backyard pool in the near future. Tate is a sophomore at the University of Cincinnati.

Alyssa and Ashley met at Miami University where they started out as living across the hall in Dorsey Hall all the way through their final home of "Sex on the Beech." Alyssa and Ashley 'met' before those days at Miami as our high schools frequently played against one another in basketball. They did not let their rivalry get in the way of their wonderful friendship. Alyssa currently lives in Columbus.

Bennett is Matt's 2.5 year old son.  He takes after Matt's flair for the dramatic and loves to be the center of attention.  He's interested in dinosaurs, dump trucks, planes and Mickey Mouse!  From day one, he has embraced Ashley and the rest of her family, so Bennett is super excited Ashley and Matt are making it official! 

Brooklynn, daughter of matron of honor, Amy, is the first little girl to give Ashley the self-proclaimed title of "auntie." Brooklynn and her melt your heart smile is already practicing what it takes to become a flower girl and is ready to "throw flowers" at Ashley's wedding.

Ashley and Joel's moms are best friends and Ashley has known Joel since he was born.  They had so much fun growing up together- swimming at Sherwood pool, going on vacation together or the other various activities their moms signed them up for.  Ashley helped baby-sit Joel for a few years, but even though she is just a few years older :), Ashley and Joel have a strong brother and sister bond. 

Adalynn, daughter of matron of honor, Amy, is Ashley's Goddaughter. Addie is so full of sweetness that you can never get enough. Addie is not quite as excited about being a flower girl, but has her big sister to help her through it.
