Maid of Honor
Sam's best friend and closest confidant. Andrea has been Sam's constant through every twist, turn, and storm life has thrown her way. She’s the person who reminds her of her strength and to always give herself grace. She's her partner in crime and the "Nit to her Wit". The one who can make her belly laugh until they're both crying, snorting, and gasping for air!
Best Man
Devin and Jarred have been best friends since 3rd grade. The Howell's are Devin's second family and Mr. Jarred is more like a brother! He’s been by Devin’s side for years, through every questionable haircut (it's not a phase mom), 21st birthdays (IYKYK), college frat parties, and now our wedding! Devin was Jarred's Best Man in his wedding in December 2022 and now he's returning the favor. There’s no one better to hype Devin up, keep him grounded, and stand beside him!
Bridesmaid
One of Sam's first Florida friends! From day one, she’s been warm, welcoming, and quickly went from "new friend" to chosen family. Ashley is her emotional support human. She’s there when she's thriving and need a girls’ night out, but also when she's a puddle on the couch and need a girls’ night in with snacks, sweatpants, and zero judgment!
Groomsman
Devin's first weightlifting partner and friend since freshman year of high school. His favorite holiday is Halloween and celebrates year round. There's never a lack of laughs or conversation when Chris is around and we know who our first call is when the Apocolypse comes! That’s a 10-4!
Bridesmaid
Sam's childhood best friend! Growing up four blocks from each other, she's more like a sister to her. Alex is a ride or die type friend that will alway show up for you, no matter the distance (usually with snacks)! She's funny, energetic and will hype you up and roast you in the same breath!
Groomsman
Devin’s childhood friend since middle school and infamous pot-stirrer, Alvin has never met a narrative he couldn’t spice up. Though life and the Army took him thousands of miles away (thank you for your service!), the distance never touched their bond. He’s the friend who keeps things interesting, brings the banter, and somehow always knows just how to get everyone riled up.
Bridesmaid
Sam's best friend since she was three years old. From growing up four blocks from each other, to frequent facetimes with her and her 'mini-me' Eloise, Michelle has always been more like a sister. The type of friend to turn your frown upsidedown, she's the queen of one-liners and thrives in awkward situations!
Groomsman
He's Mr. Europe and Devin's long time friend since middle school. Tony is the undisputed king of the dance floor, if there’s a beat, he’s got the moves! Always game for an adventure, Tony is quick with a joke or a forced shot of Jameson and knows how to keep the good vibes rolling.
Bridesmaid
Sam's Chicken Head and Devin's "little sister", Savannah is wild, hilarious, and unforgettable. She brings the energy and hangovers wherever she goes, and always keeps our lives entertaining! Our reigning tequila and tailgating queen, Vanny is always the life of the party, even if she doesn't mean to be!
Groomsman
Devin’s childhood friend since elementary school, Jake has been by his side through countless vacations filled with nonstop laughs and unforgettable moments. He’s the kind of friend who’d literally give you the shirt off his back, mostly because he’s always looking for an excuse to take it off. Bucky is the life of every party and the kind of loyal friend everyone wishes they had in their corner.
Bridesman
Sam and Devin’s best friend and favorite lightweight! Hanna has been a fiercely loyal friend to Devin for years, and getting to know her has been nothing short of a gift. She’s warm, thoughtful, and radiates joy with her laugh. Watching her blossom into the most nurturing, devoted mama to sweet Brooksie Bear has been nothing less than magical and heart-melting!
Groomsman
Devin's future brother-in-law and Sam's 'not so little' brother! He can come off quiet before you get to know him, but once you get a few drinks in him, you can guarantee you will know just how much he loves you! He’s fiercely loyal, endlessly entertaining, and despite years of sibling bickering, Sam wouldn’t trade him for anyone else. Probably.
Bridesmaid
Sam's best friend and newest family member (thanks for marrying my cousin)! There is never a dull moment when H-Dawg is around. Whether you need a laugh or a shoulder to cry on, Heather is your girl! Smart, hilarious, mildly chaotic (in the best way possible), and 100% real!
Groomsman
Devin's longest running Snapchat streak and Sam's cousin. Jake might be the Mets worst good luck charm (seriously, someone keep him away from Citi Field)! He is always down for an adventure, a round of golf, and a couple dozen beers along the way! Jake’s the kind of guy who turns a simple hangout into a full-blown story.
Bridesmaid
One of Sam's first Florida friends! Shortly after meeting, they realized that they shared a love for country music. Dozens of tailgates and concerts later, their friendship blossomed! Marianna tells it like it is, and is always there to boost your confidence with kind words or killer hair and makeup!
Groomsman
Devin's shoeless hunting partner and Sam's cousin. He’s always quick with a witty joke, whether it makes you laugh out loud or question your entire existence. One things for sure, Lukety Schnookety always knows how to make a crowd laugh or feel really uncomfortable.
Usher
Chris, aka "Donny" is one of Devin and Sam's most energetic friends. Wild in the best way, hilariously unfiltered, and fueled almost exclusively by adrenaline and Rumplemintz. Donny brings energy, laughter, and just the right amount of mayhem everywhere he goes.
Usher
Devin and Walter met in 2018 because of a last minute tattoo appointment opening. Their bond grew during late night tattoo sessions during Covid times. Walter is smart, extremely talented, hilarious, and the most loyal friend you could ask for. Never a dull moment when we're with our lead conspiracy theorist.
Officiant
Mike is one of Sam and Devin’s closest friends, and the perfect person to walk us into this next chapter of our lives. Having him officiate our wedding means the world to us. He knows our story, understands our hearts, and brings the perfect balance of warmth, wit, and well-timed happy tears. He’s the kind of friend who makes you laugh when you want to cry and reminds you, without even trying, how loved you really are. We’re so grateful to have him standing with us as we say “I do.”
