Liz has been one of Lindsey’s closest friends since first grade, when their bond was formed at Wynn Elementary School. Their families grew even closer when they discovered their grandmas lived just down the street from each other. Over the years, Liz and Lindsey have shared countless memories, growing up together and supporting one another through every chapter of life.

Madaline and Lindsey’s friendship began when they were babies, with Madaline’s grandma living just two doors down from Lindsey’s childhood home. Although they didn’t attend the same school, they always stayed in touch. As kids, they spent hours playing SIMS on the computer, and the rest, as they say, is history!

Lindsey met Kelsey when she arrived at Trine University, and Kelsey was one of the first softball teammates she formed a connection with. Their instant bond led to them becoming roommates, and despite being 5 ½ hours apart, they’ve managed to stay incredibly close over the years, proving that true friendship knows no distance.

Maddi and Lindsey also crossed paths at Trine University, where they played softball together. Their shared love for the University of Michigan and Florida beaches brought them even closer. Maddi now lives in St. Pete, a place that Eric and Lindsey love to visit often. While they miss having Chad and Maddi in Michigan, they look forward to their annual trips to St. Pete, creating lasting memories along the way.

Katie was Lindsey’s wake-up call during their freshman year of college, as they were among the few dedicated enough to join the 6 a.m. softball workouts. More than just an accountability partner, Katie quickly became one of Lindsey’s closest friends. After college, they both lived in Mishawaka, IN, where they enjoyed family dinner nights, relaxing pedicures, and frequent visits to their favorite Mexican restaurant, Hacienda.

Kelly and Lindsey met when Lindsey began working full-time at Trine University after graduation. It wasn’t long before Lindsey discovered that Kelly had grown up in Oak Harbor, OH, just a short distance from her own hometown of Oregon, OH. Their shared Ohio roots sparked a strong friendship that grew over time, with many travels together and plenty of glasses of wine along the way.

Caylee is Lindsey’s second cousin, the daughter of Chelle and Corey Hammond. Watching Caylee grow up has been a joy, and Eric & Lindsey can’t imagine their special day without her by their side!

Rocco, Eric’s nephew, is thrilled to be part of his uncle’s wedding. He’s traveling all the way from Germany to celebrate this special day!

Ryan is Eric's brother, and they've shared countless memories growing up together. As they've gotten older, their bond has only grown stronger, and they are grateful for the time they've spent enjoying each other's company.

Kevin and Eric first crossed paths at a college apartment party, where they quickly bonded over their shared experiences working on the grounds crew at a country club. A conversation about 'talking shop' sparked a friendship that has stood the test of time ever since.

Tom and Eric have been close friends since their freshman year of college. They were often the dynamic duo spotted together as the single guys at friends’ weddings. These days, they enjoy summers at the lake in Oscoda, making new memories and continuing their friendship.

Eric met Chad through Lindsey's friend Maddi, and despite being on opposite sides of the MSU/UM rivalry, they've formed a great friendship. The couples enjoy taking trips together and make it a tradition to meet up for at least one tailgate each year. They also look forward to their winter visits to Florida, where they spend time together soaking up the sun at St. Pete Beach.

Brandon and Eric have been friends since freshman year of college, but their story goes back further than realized. They actually competed against each other at the MHSAA XC meet in high school, though they had no idea who each other were until college brought them together.

Jason and Eric go way back to their high school XC days, competing against each other in the same conference in the Flint area where Eric says he always beat him. Little did they know that Eric choosing to attend OU would lead them to becoming great friends.
