Matron of Honor
Abby and Christina first met their sophomore year of high school at a homeschool co-op, but they didn't get to know each other as well until they started driving together to play Ultimate Frisbee every Tuesday night and attending open ballroom dancing with friends. The high school years were filled with ups and downs, but when Abby left later for college at Jackson Hole Bible College, the Lord graciously grew and strengthened their friendship tremendously over the distance. Christina is one of her closest and dearest friends now.

One of Abby's oldest and dearest friends, she and Emily grew up together and were playmates until Emily moved away at the age of nine. But distance makes the heart grow fonder, and the Lord has blessed their relationship and kept it strong throughout the years. Emily is one of those friends who, even though you may not have talked to them for an extended period of time, when you come back together it's as if no time has elapsed.
Bridesmaid
Gracie and Abby were roommates for their first year at Jackson Hole Bible College in 2017, and the following year when they shared their first year on staff together at the college. They've experienced much of life together already in their friendship; both "mountaintop" experiences, as well as some of the lowest and hardest. But the Lord has been immensely good through it all. Her friendship is one treasured.
Bridesmaid
Meeting freshman year of high school, Caitlin and Abby quickly became best friends and could be seen doing almost everything together. Many wonderful memories of sleepovers, ultimate frisbee, traveling, laughs and tears, both happy and heartbreaking, have been shared over the years. Even now, separated halfway across the country, their friendship remains a continuous blessing.
Bridesmaid
Abby and Shannon met the same year as Christina, as the two are sisters. Shannon was also included in the ballroom dancing and Tuesday nights of Ultimate Frisbee. Their friendship has been sweet and encouraging, growing even more over the years. Shannon and her husband, Tye, were also the couple who graciously opened their home to Garrison when he first moved to Sioux Falls.
