WEDDING PARTY
Danielle Lisa Nicole Tous van Nijkerk
Bride
Javier Andres Blandon
Groom
Alli Tous
maid of honor
Alex (Alli) is my youngest sister and we’ve only gotten closer as we’ve gotten older! One of my favorite recent memories with her is our trip to Europe in June 2019!
Taylor Anderson
Bridesmaid
I met Taylor in Ms. Villarreal’s 3rd grade class, but we became inseparable in 8th grade! Every blonde needs her brunette. The ying to my yang. You will most likely find us eating ice cream, cookies and watching a movie.
Bola Ibidapo
Bridesmaid
I was “forced” to be Bola’s friend the day she came knocking on my door in the 3rd grade saying, “someone told me where you live, want to play'?”
Amy Koestler
BRIDESMAID
Amy is the friend I’ve known the longest in the wedding party! We’ve known each other since before kindergarten and grew up across the ally from each other!
Chelsea Miller
Bridesmaid
Chelsea and I met during our freshman year at Mizzou and soon became my roommate for the rest of my time at college! If I could sum up our friendship in 3 words: singing, dancing, and brisket.
Haley Cope
Bridesmaid
I met Haley through my campus ministry, RUF, at Mizzou and we were roommates for 2 years! Never knew you could eat a Bratwurst for breakfast everyday before meeting Haley.
McKenzie Veselic
Bridesmaid
McKenzie and I met during our graduate studies to be SLPs at Truman State! If you’re looking for positive energy and good vibes, look no further, she radiates it.
Jessica Campbell
Bridesmaid
Truman also brought us together (go dogs). We have gone on a few trips during and after grad school and have spent lots of time together in Chicago. Guaranteed good time when we’re together! We connect on so many aspects of life!
Jon Norris
best man
Jon and I met in the awkward dog days of middle school. He brought me into his amazing family, and the years have only brought us closer. LOS GUAPOS!
Diego Blandon
GroomsMan
My broski by blood. Set the tone from an early age, and has continued to set the bar as we grow into adulthood.
Robby Tous
Groomsman
Danielle’s older brother. I think he is funnier than his sisters give him credit for, but looks don’t count.
Witt Wells
Groomsman
I met Witt at Mizzou. We have shared some exciting times, road trips, and more. One of the most level headed guys I know. My big picture guy.
Christian Conway
Groomsman
A Mizzou product who made a name for himself his sophomore season. Enjoys talking politics, the Chicago Blackhawks, and Texas high school basketball highlights.
Tyler Wall
Groomsman
Tyler and I met in Houston Part I. He missed me so much that he convinced me to move back and work with him. Been a regular part of my life. Iron sharpens iron.
Tyler McSweeney
Groomsman
Forever grateful for this guy, his wife Kellen, and all of the beautiful friends I made through them. You will still find him with a Bud Light in-hand. Two Tylers are better than one.
Noah Kalbfeld
Groomsman
Also known as Brown Bear. He was the first person to celebrate our engagement. A true gentleman and an absolute joy to spend time with.
Kai “Gai” Blandon
Ring Bearer
We fell in love with Kai on a farm in Ennis, TX. He’s lived in Columbia, Houston, Chicago, Kirksville, Dallas, and Los Angeles. The goodest of boys. Will do anything for pets and a game of fetch.
Miles '“Baby” Tous
Security
My sweet angel boy was adopted when I was a senior in high school. The diva of the family, just like his mama. Prefers naps and being the coziest guy in the room, just like his mama.
