Maple Waffle Schildknecht - Dog of Honor
Although you won’t see her at the ceremony or reception, if you look around there will be little hints of this little cutie throughout the night, so keep an eye out!
Ashley Plaisted - Maid of Honor
Hi! I’m Ashley. I’m an HTM major at Oklahoma State University. I met Emily on the first day of Kindergarten. She hated me immediately. That’s how I knew we were gonna be best friends. We really started our friendship freshman year of high school and have been inseparable ever since.
Reese Haight - Best Man
Hi, I’m Reese, and I graduated from Brescia University in my hometown of Owensboro, Kentucky. I enjoy hunting, fishing, and going to the gym. I first met Jack during our freshman year of college when he came up to me and asked how I survived living with my twin sister because her punches hurt. I told him she had to survive living with me. Jack was also my wall neighbor sophomore year, and we would sometimes talk through the wall. We’d also have lunch together whenever our class schedules lined up.
Sabrina Hardy - Bridesmaid
Hello! I'm Sabrina. I'm a Molecular Biology and Genetics major at Purdue University. Emily and I have been best friends since preschool!
Matthew Marks - Groomsmen
I'm a family man that loves the outdoors and being active. I'm pretty quiet until you get to know me, and then it's like you've known me forever. I met Jack when we were paired together for a group project. Me and Jack were the only ones in the group that seemed to understand what was going on. Even then, we just kept sending memes back and forth in the groupchat we had. Ever since, we've been good buddies, still updating each other on new memes we come across.
Sarah Ann Steibel - Bridesmaid
My name is Sarah Ann! I am graduating in May with a triple major in Business from McKendree University. I met Emily freshman year of college through our Intro to Management class! This started a run of many classes together and countless memories through them. I could always count on her to make class better and knew that I wanted to keep this friendship in my life.
Trae Barber - Groomsmen
I’m originally from Kentucky and now I live in Tennessee. I like playing golf and basketball in my free time. First day of college in our BU101 class Jack and I met and just instantly became friends. His funny/dumb humor just matched my own so we clicked.
