Wedding Party
Cayman Loney-Adams
Maid of Honor
Cayman and I have been best friends since birth. Literally, I was born and then less than 3 months later Cayman was born, placed in front of me, and the bond was formed. When we were younger she tried to teach me many things, like how to flirt with guys and how to dance. I was horrible at both, but she tried her best. As we got older she taught me other skills, like how to take a proper shot and how to stand up for myself. She helped me stay true to myself, so it only makes sense that she be my maid of honor. Through every milestone she has been there either right next to me or on the phone talking me through it. She's headstrong and a bit of a nut, but I wouldn't trade her friendship for anything. Well maybe like 10 million dollars, but I'm sure she'd understand haha. <3
Kaylor Chesney
Best Man
Kaylor has been my best friend since the very beginning so early, he actually slept in my crib before I did. From staying up late playing video games to bussing tables and doing dishes at the Blue Max together, we’ve been through every stage of life side by side. To me, he’s the definition of how family doesn’t always have to be blood.
Marlena Svacina
Bridesmaid
Where do I even begin with this woman? She's my partner in crime. If I'm getting into trouble she probably knew about it and is there, or didn't talk me out of it. When I get a new board game she's willing to take the first turn while I read the rulebook so we can learn together. Marlena's the person I can talk to about anything and everything for hours. She's also the person that brings me back to the real world and reminds me that the money tree is still a work in progress. She's my favorite speed reader and craft maker. Most importantly, she's a woman that I 100% can't imagine my wedding day without. <3
Jonathan Sellon
Groomsman
I met Jonathan when I started at Essentia, and in just a few years, he’s already helped me survive some of the toughest moments in my life. We’ve spent countless hours in EMS dispatch together, sharing laughs, chaos, and questionable life advice. Jonathan’s support, guidance, and sense of humor have made a huge difference in my life, and I’m lucky to call him a friend and proves that sometimes the right people show up just when you need them most.
Shawna Dauplaise
Bridesmaid
Sister-in-law, brother's wife, mother to my nephews. All LAME words to describe what this woman is to me. Shawna, while she is my SIL, is more like the bestie the world gave me with a slap in the face. They said "this girl is important, so we're gonna tie her to you for life," and I couldn't be more happy about it. She is always around when I need her, a phone call away, a quick SOS and she's at my door. She reminds me to live life and to panic a little less. Her and my brother have welcomed AJ with open arms too, making sure he knows he's already family. That's just one of the million reasons I love her. <3
Ryan Dauplaise
Groomsman
Ryan may be my fiancé’s brother, but he’s felt like family from the very beginning. We can talk about anything , deep conversations, life plans, or absolutely nothing at all and it never feels forced. He has a way of making people feel comfortable, included, and right at home. Even before the wedding makes it official, Ryan made it clear that I am already part of the family, and that means more to me than he probably knows.
Mercedes Loney
Bridesmaid
Mercedes. What is there to say about her? Well, nothing she would want me to tell a bunch of people or have written on the internet haha. But she has also been in my life since I was born. Dealing with mine and Cayman's crazy antics. I could talk about all our adventures or I could just say that without her my life would be dull. She has shown me what true strength is. Taught me that we won't get what we want in life without fighting for it. But also has shown me that the important people will help you through those fights. She's one of my number one fighters, supporters, and friends. We can thank her for this wedding even happening. She's the one who told me, "If you like him, go get him." I took that advice and ran with it. Thank you <3
Bryce Moe
Groomsman
I met Bryce working security at the casino, and somehow survived the chaos together. We’ve shared our fair share of work trauma, sports debates, and questionable “relationship advice” sessions. Bryce is the kind of friend who makes even the worst days at work , slightly less terrible and somehow, I always walk away smarter, or at least entertained.
Ryan JR, James, & Christopher
Entourage of Children
My nephews. Part of "the entourage of children" aka flower/ring boys. These three bring a light to the world that matches very few. They are excited to officially make AJ a part of the family. They are also excited to throw things. We have instructed them not to throw them at people, but if you're reading this, you have been warned.
Marlin and Stevie
Entourage of Children
Marlin and Stevie may be little, but they’ve made a big impact on my life. Between their endless energy, hilarious antics, and big hearts, they remind me every day what it means to enjoy life and laugh at the little things. Being their godparent is one of the greatest privileges and one of the most fun jobs I’ve ever had.
Jasmine Beach
Bride's Right Hand
Jasmine and I haven't been friends as long as everyone else on this list. But I feel like she's the missing piece I've been looking for in the crazy puzzle I call life. Shes strong, loyal, and incredibly nuts. Just the person I need to help keep me sane. I tend to overthink and over-stress, and she knows how to talk me back down to reality. Day of she will be my point person, my emergency kit holder, and the one who stops me from micromanaging everyone. <3
Ricky Svacina
Officiant
Ricky is Marlena’s husband, but also one of my (Ti’s) really good friends. He has been another one of those people life said “he’s important, we’re gonna make you keep him.” He’s always a voice of reason when I have my crazy ideas or insane home improvement decisions. He’s my “dad friend,” the guy I talk to about important stuff, the guy I want to put the stamp of “you did it” to the paperwork. <3
