David and Andy met in High School when David bet $5 Andy wouldn't drink a Papa Johns's Garlic Butter. Andy regrettably won that bet and for some odd reason allowed a friendship to blossom

Tony was Andy's middle school bully. They met in choir. They spent many years singing together. Later on they would work in a bowling alley together for over a decade.

Boss turned bestie. Kelly has been there for Kayla through life’s biggest highs and hardest moments — always ready with advice, encouragement, or just a much-needed laugh. She’s shown Kayla how to juggle motherhood without losing herself. Kelly is the kind of friend you can truly be your authentic self around. She’s been there through it all, and there’s no way Kayla would want to do this without her.

Sammy could have been picked by either bride or groom. They wouldn't have met without her. Sammy and Andy went to High School together. They remained friends throughout college and beyond. They furthered that friendship on the bowling lanes. Kayla met Sammy working at Eurofins. They became friends as co-workers tend to do. One day Sammy brought Kayla to the New Berlin Alehouse, and the rest is history.

Kevin and Andy go back. Way back. Like daycare back. They have maintained their friendship over the years through their mutual interest in the outdoors, sarcasm, and fire.

Maddie is Kayla’s sister and forever best friend — they’ve been inseparable since day one. She’s always down for an adventure, a laugh, or just showing up when it matters most. Maddie brings the fun and the goofiness wherever she goes.

Tim is the bride’s brother and, if you ask around, probably his dad’s favorite (though no one will admit it outright). He starts off quiet but doesn’t stay that way for long — once he warms up, he’s full of jokes and fun. And while we’re thrilled to have him here to support Kayla, we suspect he might actually like Andy even more.

Morgan is Kayla’s energy match — always up for an adventure, a spontaneous deep chat, or hyping up a room just by walking in. They’ve known each other since they were kids (thanks to their dads working together), and their connection only grew stronger over time. Whether they’re organizing a room for hours or laughing until they’re giddy, even the simplest moments turn into the best memories. Now living in different states, their bond is still just as strong — and just as fun.

Nathan is Kayla’s little brother and the most unpredictable member of the family (and yes — he once carved “Here’s Johnny” into a door, Jack Nicholson-style). He’s always marched to the beat of his own drum, bringing a mix of humor, honesty, and head-scratching moments that we wouldn’t trade for the world. He’s got a peaceful spirit, an unexpectedly sharp wit, and a way of keeping us all on our toes. While he may not always pick up the phone, he shows his love in his own unique way, and we’re so glad he’s part of this day.

Callie is Andy’s sister — and it didn’t take long for her to become Kayla’s friend, too. She’s brought laughter and rhythm into Kayla’s life, teaching her on dance moves and beats, and even taking her to musicals. She may have come with Andy, but Kayla’s definitely keeping her.

Justin and Andy met through bowling. Over the years, Justin and his wife Karen, Andy's OG doubles partner, have become close friends. Many a night has passed on their screen porch spending quality time with friends.

Kayla and Laura have been best friends since middle school — the kind of friendship that’s seen every awkward phase, wild memory, and major life milestone. Laura is Kayla’s ride or die, always just a phone call away and ready to support, vent, or laugh until they cry (or pee — let’s be honest). Even though they’re now navigating adulthood from different states, the bond is still unshakable. Some friendships are for a season — this one’s for life.

Sam and Andy met through work. Eventually they lived together. During Covid, Sam got the pleasure of living with both Kayla and Andy, and it was something. These days, 'Uncle' Sam has become one of Adrian's favorite people. Tuesday is Zoo day!
