Celebrate Good Times

Skooter's Roadhouse... what were you expecting? One of my good friends knew Nick because her mom was his teacher. We were out one summer night, post 2020 lockdown, just celebrating good times. As we left, she ran into Nick and as they were chatting, Nick just couldn't help asking, "Who's that?" referring to me. The rest is, as they say, history... actually, our story.

We Found Love in a Hopeless Place

Our Story

My name is Katie and I’m the sister of the bride. I met Kelly on Tuesday 1/26/1999. I like to foster animals in my free time, I’ve fostered about 17 animals and counting! I work in the investigations division of the Westmont Police Department and I love me a good death investigation! I’m also a big reader- if anyone has read A Court of Thorns and Roses, let’s talk about it at the wedding!!!

Katie

I’m Cody — the family IT guy who’s a bad ass M&M enthusiast that loves dad jokes, golfing, and breaking awkward silences with fart noises. 

Cody

Hello, I am the little brother of the groom, and a co best man. I’ve known Nick for my whole life and am excited to see him on his big night!!

Brennan

Hi everyone! My names Chloe Phillips I’m the sister of the groom and future sister in-law to the beautiful bride!! The first time I met Kelly was years ago when Nick poorly timed sneaking her out of our house.. and the rest was history. We have so many great memories since then especially our drinking memories. I can’t wait for Kelly to officially become a part of the Phillips family and to partttayyyy!

Chloe

Hi everyone, my name is Mannie, I'm a nurse. Once I am out these scrubs do not play with me because I'm ready to get a little drinky drink and have fun, especially to celebrate with my girl, Kelly. We've been going strong since freshman year of high school, so it only makes sense that I make sure this girl celebrates on her big day.

Mannie

I first became friends with Philly back in 7th grade on Christmas Day — we both got BMX bikes that year and messaged each other on Facebook to meet up and ride. We’ve been best friends ever since. After college, Philly even helped me land my first job at Enterprise Rent-A-Car. I didn’t stay there long… but I stuck around just long enough for him to get his referral bonus. I now live in St. Petersburg, Florida, enjoying the beaches, fishing, and playing plenty of golf.

I’m Maggie! I met Kelly in college while we were studying to become teachers. Our friendship officially started when I (very assertively) made her, Kelly B, and Lindsey ride with me to our first round of clinicals—and we’ve been close ever since. Over the years, she became not just a friend but my go-to snuggle buddy on the futon at Kayle’s whenever we visited her. From classrooms to couch crashes, Kelly has always been someone I could count on for laughs, nail painting skills, and unforgettable memories. I’m so honored to stand by her side on such a special day, and I can’t wait to celebrate this next chapter with her and Boo Bear!

Maggie

Hi!  I’m Lindsey, and I’ve been lucky enough to call Kelly my friend since college, when we were basically forced to bond during our carpools to clinicals, where we were teaching partners. Looking back, I’m so grateful for that, because Kelly has been a constant source of care, love, and laughter ever since.

Our friendship really grew during countless nights downtown, skipping class, and, of course, our vacations that finally made it out of the group chat. Even though we don’t get to see each other as often as we used to, I’m thankful our friendship picks back up where we left off, like no time has passed. 

I’m beyond excited to be part of this next chapter for Kelly and Nick. I wish them a lifetime filled with love, laughter, and happiness. Cheers to you both!

Lindsey

I'm Rio and I love sports and working out. I am somebody that loves to travel and have a good time. Expect to me be goofy and someone that always has a positive mindset. I met Nick in highschool, working together at Buffalo Wild Wings where we grew close over the years. We ended up moving on to our career jobs together at Enterprise where we both have worked our way up to becoming branch managers in our hometowns. 

Hi y’all, I’m Kayle the Texas Baddie. I’ve been lucky to call Kelly one of my closest friends for the past seven years. From pregaming at my apartment, spontaneous pub nights, and taking a million (and one) selfies together, we’ve shared some of the best memories — and probably way too many inside jokes. I’m so honored to stand by her side today as she begins this beautiful new chapter!

Kayle

Nick and I first met through playing travel baseball together (along with Brandon) in Plainfield when we were young and both of our dads helped coach the team. Since moving to ATL over ten years ago, we’ve all made yearly trips to see each other and I can’t wait to continue the tradition with Nick and Kelly. 

Kyle

Hi, I'm Kelly B! I'm a teacher and a proud childless cat lately. Kelly S. and I met in college at Illinois State University. Our go-to party trick introducing ourselves to people as Kelly Squared. Strangers are sure to never forget our name!

Kelly B.

I’ve known Philly since elementary school as a fellow Ridge Raptor. I’m also known as Philly's arch nemesis in golf. I’m a huge Bears fan and unfortunately a White Sox fan. I also enjoy long walks on the beach.

Kevin

Philly and I go way back to our days playing for the Plainfield Tornadoes. Over the years, from the baseball field to college weekends, he’s been like a brother to me. I’m honored to stand by his side as he starts this next chapter.

Brandon

I'm Nick, one of Philly's best friends, best golfer of the group (so they tell me), whiskey connoisseur and unapologetic Chicago Bears fan.
