Affectionally referred to as the loves of each other lives, Katie and Lindsey's friendship is the real MVP, withstanding more escapades and questionable decisions than a reality show producer could script. If their friendship were a movie, it'd be a blockbuster comedy and a heartwarming tale where friendship, laughs, and love steal the spotlight.
Matt McMillin - Best Man
A friendship that has stood the test of time, Matt and Collin have been besties since their St. Peter and Paul grade school days. Now old men, they still try to act like young kids, but one late night of UFC and too much beer has them questioning their decisions. Father Time remains undefeated!
Haley McSpadden - Matron of Honor
Starting in 2008 when Lindsey moved to Collinsville, these two have been best friends. Their friendship is the type that effortlessly picks up where it left off, reflecting years of shared fun and countless memories.
Tyler Hermes - Best Man
What many consider a bromance, Collin and Tyler likely talk to each other on the phone more than they do with their significant others. The self-proclaimed "Big Buck Hunter," Tyler holds the record for most consecutive fishing tournaments fished without ever winning.
Kaitlyn Juilfs - Bridesmaid
Kaitlyn is Lindsey's partner in crime since the age of 14. From culinary exploration to the unintentional winter chill caused by accidentally leaving their apartment windows open to the lively high school parties hosted at her house, Kaitlyn has proved that where there's laughter, exploration, and a touch of frostbite, she's always there to keep the good times rolling.
Andrew Ahlers - Groomsman
Though their friendship now stretches 4,181 miles, their love remains intact by continuously shit-talking one another through Snapchat and arguing over who is going to win a UFC fight. Collin recently fired him as his personal trainer and hired him on as a financial advisor due to as some would describe, cheap tendencies.
Haley Andrews - Bridesmaid
Lindsey loves organization and simplicity. Haley loves color and eccentricity. Lindsey is blonde and 5'4. Haley is brunette and 5'10. Lindsey loves breweries. Haley loves Anime conventions. These two recognize their differences are what make them the best of sisters and friends.
Jordan Vandyke - Groomsman
Basketball, baseball, soccer, golf, you name it, Collin and Jordan have played it together. They have a strong love for sports and Lions Choice. And, as an added bonus, if you need a chips and salsa guy at a party, Jordan's got you.
Amber Baker - Bridesmaid
Don't underestimate this pint-sized human. In her Ole Miss days, this little dynamo was the ultimate hostess for most of the pre-bar parties. Lindsey was drawn to her infectious fun, charismatic, and loving nature, and the two quickly became friends, creating a friendship that has thrived into adulthood. Every now and then, they attempt to recapture some of that party energy...
Aaron Esterle - Groomsman
Mizzou Flag football teammates turned college roommates. This Browns super fan once beat Dorial Green Beckham (#1 overall recruit in the nation and NFL player) in the 100m dash. He's washed up now and couldn't beat Victoria Beckham, but Collin still loves him.
Jackie Kivett - Bridesmaid
Jackie, Lindsey's best friend since their high school days, stands as a steadfast anchor in Lindsey's life. Serving as Lindsey's longest long-distance relationship, they continue to be unwavering confidants, effortlessly closing the geographical gap through quick texts and calls whenever needed.
Danny McAteer - Groomsman
Brother-in-law turned horse racing handicapping syndicate, Danny and Collin like to bond over their love of sports and sports betting. If you got a glimpse into their texts, there would be no mention of their spouses..... only sports.
Morgan McAteer - Bridesmaid
Collin, known for his humor in the family, finds a heartwarming complement in his sister Morgan, who exudes kindness and love. Ever since she welcomed Lindsey with open arms into the Throm family, Morgan has not only become her future sister-in-law but also a true friend to Lindsey.
Haley Ahlers - Groomswoman
Haley is the long-withstanding girl of the group. Any time Collin needs someone to beat in a competition, Haley is always there. She's not afraid to argue back or call Collin out on his bullshit – they are two peas in a pod. Most people know her as Andrew's Wife.
Heather Hayden - Bridesmaid
It's impossible to hide from Heather – she's everywhere. High school to Ole Miss and back to their hometown, these two haven't been more than a few miles away from each other since they met... much to Lindsey's complaints. But, don't let Lindsey fool you, she wouldn't have it any other way.
Mike Throm - Groomsman
Known to drink one too many bourbons together, these cousins, turned roommates, turned best friends, have a great time shooting the shit and hunting together. With their wild party days of Cass Avenue behind them, these two now settle for bourbons in the garage.
Fun Fact: He is the only man Collin knows to have broken his nose 4 times. You can barely tell.
Austin Werths - Groomsman
Austin and Collin go way back to Saints Peter and Paul grade school. They have been known to frequent Wild Country and Waffle House together. Often referred to as Magellan, he is the only man to have been somewhere 500 times and still ask for directions.
