Sarah Manatt
Co-Maid of Honor, Best friend
Sarah and I have been friends since sophomore year in high school. Our friendship began interestingly. I decided to confront her about rumors I thought she started about me. After determining that she was quite harmless, we started to hang out along with our friend Lydia.
Sarah lives in Ames, IA with her soon to be husband, John Whaley and her son Thomas. She has always been an amazing friend to me. The loss of our fathers, within a year of each other, has brought us to another level. She is the most kind hearted person I know. I'm honored to call her my friend.Added on Thu, Apr 23rd 2009

Lydia J. Colvin
Co-Maid of Honor, Best Friend
Lydia, oh, Lydia. How do I love thee? Lydia and I began our friendship freshman year in high school. We were assigned to be partners on a history project. After our quest to find bubble gum cigars for our report on Cuba, our friendship was solidified. When we got together, there was always laughter and "creative mischief." Most of our time in school was spent in the art "wing" at our high school.
Lydia lives in the South (but we wont blame her for that) with her husband, Chris, her son, Neville. She is due to have another little one soon! She is working on opening her own business aimed at the arts and crafts. I'm only a little jealous. :)Added on Wed, Apr 22nd 2009

Mary A. Mettille
Bridesmaid, Sister
My sister was born when I was 10 years old. Â In fact, I literally WATCHED her be born. Â Her quirkiness is my favorite thing about her. Â She isn't a fan of being in the spot light, hence the reason she isn't acting as my Maid of Honor.Â
She is really quite awesome. Â She is a fantastic writer and loooooves rock climbing, reading and swimming. Â I attribute my Twilight fan status to her... she is responsible for my addiction! Â She lives up in Minnesota with my step mom, Pamela and my brother, Thomas. ÂAdded on Wed, Apr 22nd 2009

Rachael Goldapp
Bridesmaid, Soon to be Sister in Law
Rachael is Josh's sister. Â After years of silence, they reunited in 2008. Â We couldn't be more fortunate. Â She is hard working Momma of 2 (soon to be 3). Â Her son, Erik, will be the ring bearer and her daughter, Nellie, will hopefully be the flower girl.Â
Rachael has overcome some adversity in her life. Â She has a huge heart and loves working with the elderly and disabled. Â She and her kids live in Neola, IA.Added on Wed, Apr 22nd 2009

Thomas F. Mettille
"Father Replacement", Brother.
Thomas is Elizabeth's youngest brother. Â In the absence of Elizabeth's father, he is taking the step up to walk her down the aisle. Â
Thomas is a high energy, intuitive kid. Â He has a huge heart. Â He loves video games (specifically BEATING you at video games), rock climbing and playing cards. Â He is always up for a round of Spoons... or just a big hug.ÂAdded on Wed, Apr 22nd 2009

M. Scott Mettille
Officiant, Brother
Scott is Elizabeth's brother. Â He worked at Olde Main Brewing Company with Joshua and Elizabeth before they were an item. Â Because he knew both of them before the relationship, and because he specializes in "performance," he will be marrying Joshua and Elizabeth. Â
Scott is attending University of Minnesota, Twin Cities. Â He dances, he sings, he creates.... and guess what, he is super talented! Â :) Â He is is 21, going on 30 and a very driven individual. Â You may consider getting his autograph while you can... it'll be worth money some day!Added on Wed, Apr 22nd 2009

Denny Tehan
Groomsman, Best Friend and Fellow Cubs Fan
Denny has been a good friend of Joshua's for some time. Â He is a great father of three children and graduate of ISU (anybody need an engineer?!). Â He worked at Olde Main Brewing Company with Joshua and Elizabeth and was easily the best server IN the place.
Denny is a great friend. Â Probably without knowing it, he has provided Joshua with a lot of support. Â He is always up for baseball talk, hanging out with the kids, or an "adventure."ÂAdded on Wed, Apr 22nd 2009

Noah Goldapp
Groomsman, Brother
Noah is Josh's brother. Â After years of silence, they reunited in 2008. Â We couldn't be more fortunate. Â When Elizabeth met Noah, she was amazed at how much he reminded her of Joshua. Â He is a younger version of him in so many ways! Â Smart and good-looking... what more could you ask for? ;)
He lives back in Neola, IA near Council Bluffs. ÂAdded on Wed, Apr 22nd 2009
