groomsmen
justin phelps - best man
 |
Mike met Justin at Merwin Elementary in 4th grade in Cincinnati, OH. They were mortal enemies from that point until their sophomore year at Amelia High School. Then Justin realized Mike was cool. They've been best friends since! Justin also recruited Mike to move to Vegas and gave him a job. Which then led to Mike recruiting Jacquie to Vegas. Which then led to this wedding. So, here we are...

aaron helton - best man
 |
Aaron introduced Mike to his first high school girlfriend. Luckily, he's a terrible match maker! But for what he lacks in setting up love, he made up for in friendship. Mike convinced him to move to Vegas in 2010, only a year before Mike convinced Jacquie! Aaron is the human IMDB and is nice enough to watch Teen Mom 2 with Jacquie so Mike can do anything but that. Now that's a best man. Ladies, he's available...easy now, form a straight line.

stephen dipietro - groomsman
 |
Stephen is Justin's brother-in-law and Mike's first Vegas roommate. Mike had just moved to Vegas; Stephen had just finished his obligation with the Marines. They didn't know each other, but they became roommates and had a hell of a time. They've been great friends ever since with a grand mutual love of the Buckeye's and California Burrito's from Robertos! |
dean heath - groomsman
 |
Dean and Mike were schoolmates that shared an impressive streak of wackiness. From student council workdays "AKA, skipping class", to Lou Bega jam sessions, to running from the Red Ghost truck, they were usually getting into some sort of shenanigans. Dean is a black belt, but Mike can still take him. Mike also has permanent dibs over Dean. So, dibs. |
chance baysinger - groomsman
 |
Chance and Mike became good friends after high school and roommates soon after. Weighing just around 150lbs, Chance was always the odd man out of the 250 club with Mike, Justin, and Aaron. Chance was the only one brave enough to get a drink with Mike on the night he turned 21 (it was a Monday). Chance will always be remembered for his excellence in wrestling, achieving 99 wins in high school. Just under 100. Mike loves to remind him. |
stephen wludyga jr - groomsman
 |
Stephen (AKA, Stevie) is Jacquie's brother and the only other redhead in the bridal party. He's also the only groomsman cool enough to be a graduate of Ohio University (Mike & Jacquie's Alma Mater). Although not supported by stats or even common sense, Mike claims to hold a better shooting percentage at Wludyga Pop-A-Shot basketball than Stephen. |
