Matt Fletcher - Best Man
Nick met Matt on spring break in Florida in 2009, and they’ve been close ever since. Nick stood as best man in Matt’s wedding, and now Matt returns the favor. They’ve shared years of good times talking sports, family, and health...even if Matt’s a Green Bay Packers fan and Nick bleeds purple for the Vikings.
Kim Valencia - Maid of Honor
Kim has been Samantha’s best friend for over 14 years, and their friendship has grown into true sisterhood. They’ve been there for each other through every stage of life, always sharing laughs and support. There’s no one more fitting to stand by Samantha’s side as Maid of Honor on the biggest day of her life.
Josh Semler - Groomsman
Nick met Josh in 2019 back in California. They clicked over Vikings football, sports betting, the stock market, and plenty of long conversations about life, philosophy, and health. Over the years they’ve stayed in touch and have always been able to count on each other.
Sabrina Gastelum - Bridesmaid
Sabrina is Samantha’s middle sister, and although they’re often polar opposites, the love between them is undeniable. She’s known for keeping things real and has always brought her own energy to family life. Sharing this moment together is a special reminder of the bond they’ll always have as sisters.
Shane Keinholz - Groomsman
Shane is Nick’s brother. The two connect over talks about health, politics, shooting, and time outdoors. Nick has enjoyed watching Shane’s family grow and is grateful to have him standing by his side as he starts his own with Samantha.
Sophia Gastelum - Bridesmaid
Sophia is Samantha’s youngest sister and forever the baby of the family. She’s bubbly, full of life, and always brings joy and laughter wherever she goes. Samantha has loved watching her grow up, and having her warmth and bright spirit by her side makes the celebration complete.
Matt Strey - Groomsman
Matt is Nick’s brother-in-law and another Packers fan in the group. Nick appreciates their relationship, especially as he and Samantha are godparents to Matt’s two boys. Matt has been a solid part of family life, and their bond continues to grow through family and shared values.
Ashley Strey - Bridesmaid
Ashley is Samantha’s future sister-in-law, but their bond feels like much more than that. Samantha is a proud godmother to one of her kiddos, and together they’ve built a relationship full of laughter, family trips, and memories. She’s not just family by marriage, but a true sister and lifelong friend.
Leo Strey - Ring Bearer
Leo is Nick’s nephew and godson, and by marriage, Samantha’s too. Just shy of 3 years old at the wedding, he’ll no doubt charm everyone, probably calling out “Niiiiccckkk” as he walks down the aisle! His presence adds a joyful, playful spirit to the day that couldn’t be imagined any other way.
