Emma is my soon-to- be sister. She has dealt with Matt for her whole life as his little sister. If you ask her if she knows any early 2000s songs, she is not the one to go to, but she has the best heart. I cannot wait to have another sister!

She is my little sister and my sidekick for most of my life. If I was doing something and it looked fun, you would be hard pressed to not find Emily doing the same thing 5 minutes later. She is the mother of my fiesty goddaughter, Gemma. I am so excited to have her be a part of my big day.

I met Haley while working at the Texas Roadhouse in Dubuque. She has always been there through breakups, job switches, and when we have been done peopling for the day. She is the least judgmental person I know and is always down for a good drink and a good song.

I met Sydney through Matt at softball in 2020 and became fast friends. She is always down for a party especially if it involves karaoke. Syd is honest, funny, and a joy to be around. She's a sucker for Busch Light and for a good country song.

Danielle and I met through my brother, Luke. When I was introduced to her, I thought it was about time my brother met someone who could rile him up a bit. She is an amazing mother to my 2 beautiful nieces and handsome nephew. Danielle is sweet and spicy and always down for a good drink, especially a good margarita.

Hannah is one of my little sisters that has been such a blast to have around. She goes with the flow and is always down for and impromptu dance party. Hannah has some of the best dance moves around but only a few of us have had the opportunity to see them, but she said they will come out at the reception.

I met Maggie at one of the many fun Banwarth get togethers. Matt introduced us and then promptly regretted it because we became fast friends. She knows all the fun games to play and always in for a good practical joke. She doesn't do vodka but everything else is fair game when it comes to partying.

Gracie is my youngest sister. She is a shy, young woman who loves singing and dancing especially for show choir. It takes a couple minutes for her to warm up but when she does, she can talk your ear off.

Will is my younger brother and first best friend. He is great at listening and always the best at one liners to have you laughing for days. We would run around the farm always getting into things and causing trouble. Give him a beer and Hardy song and he won't be off the dance floor long.

When I met Bailey in 8th Grade in the stands of Hempstead football game, I thought he was just a pretty boy quarterback. Freshman year helped to realize he was decently cool as we played football and did track together. Even after high school, I would still make the trips to Cedar Falls to party with him. He's not afraid to put me in my place. Give him some beers and he will sing Mr. Brightside word for word.

I met Matt on a school bus in middle school and became friends through sports in middle school and high school. Now we spend our days retired from football playing softball and drinking Diet Mountain Dew Vodkas up at The Barn listening to Jon Pardi.

Joe and I met in middle school and remained friends through high school as we participated in track together. Joe and I remain close through playing softball, talking shop, and hanging out at family events. Sending a prayer out for a Shirtless Joe to make a showing at the reception.

Peyton was the cornerback in football in high school. We didn't really talk to each other until after he graduated from Wartburg. We became stronger friends after playing softball. Peyton is always down for a competitive game of darts, a cold Busch Light, and Fergie.

Pfohl and I met in high school through mutual friends. We became better friends post college through new mutual friends. Now we talk about golf, racing, darts, sports gambling, and how the hangovers are just getting worse with age. He is 6'8" if you are wondering.

Jacob was in my freshman speech class. I found him very annoying at first, but he grew on me through many football practices and visits to Iowa City. Though we don't see each other every day, we try to stay touch now that he lives in Kansas City. Enjoys banter about the Chiefs and Taylor Swift.

Nick is my oldest cousin on the Banwarth side. We used to run around Grandma and Grandpa's farm together. Now, we hangout together golfing and playing softball.

I was nervous going to Calmar and getting paired with a random roommate. Lo and behold, this goofy guy in glasses from Wisconsin walks in. He opened the fridge and saw a 30-pack in there and said "Ok, so this is what we're doin'." We try to visit each other once a year to stay in touch as we enjoy drinking beers on Mike's Big Deck overlooking the Mississippi River.
