Maggie Smits - Maid Of Honor
My younger sister and someone who enjoys traveling as much as I do (just not the planning part lol). As Maggie has grown up, I have been amazed to see the way she loves and cares for me, Andrew, and family and friends. She tells me every day practically how excited she is for my wedding, and she has been especially thoughtful in various wedding plans!
Clare Drefcinski - Bridesmaid
Clare is my college best friend, who I lived with three out of our four years in MKE together. Our friendship is one of the most unexpected blessings in my life; I have learned so much from her and will be forever grateful for her impact on my life! It is full of laughs, deep talks, and rooted in faith (and me trying to convince her to move to MN!)
Oscar Vazquez - Groomsmen
I met Oscar at the same Kwik Trip I started working with Maria at, and I recruited him to my current job at R & L Carriers as a forklift operator.
Sophia Brunko - Bridesmaid
I have known Sophia since Kindergarten as we went to school together K-8, but our friendship really grew after we started going to separate high schools. My friendship with her was my first intentional, deep friendship. Early in high school, we agreed to pray for each other's future spouses, and that set a made to last bond that enabled us to stay close through high school and college. Sophia is super dependable and thoughtful, and I know that I can count on her no matter what. It is only fitting that she would be by my side on this day,
William Mangelsen - Groomsmen
I met William during my time in the Military. We were roommates during training and have stayed in touch in the years since.
My Bridesmaids

There is a pretty funny story about this picture. By the time I went wedding dress shopping, I still hadn't made a final decision about how many bridesmaids I wanted, so I hadn't asked anyone yet. We got a big group picture, a bunch of pictures of me and everyone that went individually, and then Maggie went, "We should get a picture of the future bridesmaids." All six of us just looked at each other for a good fifteen seconds before my mom goes, "well she hasn't asked anyone yet" and I just laughed and had the girls get in for a picture.
