Best Man
Dad-my literal day one, Rocky Gomez has been a pillar in my life as well as the whole family. He lives his life to serve and help others especially those in his family. He is my best friend and my go to in every situation and what better man to stand beside me than the man that I aspire to be; my dad.
Maid of Honor
My sister. My friend. My maid of honor. Since I was five years old, Hannah was my little doll, my shadow, my copycat. On my most special day, she will be my most trusted confidant, my help meet, my maid of honor.
Best Man
This dude has been with me and for through my best and worst times. Even when we haven’t agreed on everything and I wouldn’t follow his advice, he never left my corner and was always there to encourage and challenge me to be a better man. Another constant in my life, my big brother Micheal.
Bridesmaid
In a world full of superficial insincerity, Brittany is a true friend. Through and through. She is faithful, truthful, genuine. I do not deserve such a loving friend or bridesmaid, but I have one in her.
Groomsman
I met Luke through Samuel. I feel like we would’ve met sooner if Mark wasn’t always between us. (Get it, the Gospel layout? Too cheesy? Too bad.) Some would look at Luke and think he is the “obligatory” groomsman in the party, since he is the brother of the bride. Nay I say! I knew whenever I met Luke at Awakening that he would be a solid friend and would in some way be involved in my future wedding. Who knew that I’d be marrying his sister?
Bridesmaid
The kindest person I have ever met. I met Emma because we were both outsiders...literally...we were the only two kids who ate lunch outside at our co-op. We’ve been friends ever since! She is talented and intelligent and I am blessed to call her my friend and bridesmaid!
Groomsman
I really can’t remember when I met D, but whenever it was, we were immediate friends. The room changes whenever this dude walk into it. One of the happiest guys on the planet and could make a tree belly laugh. I can’t list all the times this guy has helped when I was in a tight spot whether it be on campus ministry or just running late for something per usual.
Bridesmaid
I met Marissa just before a crawfishing trip Matthew had conveniently forgotten to tell me we were going on. She made it so fun, just like she does everything. Marissa can make anything enjoyable and I am so happy she will be a bridesmaid on my wedding day!
Groomsman
Cody and I have been friends for over ten years and neither one of us shows any sign of going anywhere. You won’t meet a more genuine person on the planet. There is literally too much to even start when it comes to talking about my oldest best friend. I know “like a brother” is a phrase that is overused but that is the best way to describe our friendship.
Bridesmaid
Someone who will drop everything for anyone. Hayley has been my friend for longer than I can remember. Everyone deserves to have a Hayley in their life and everyone should strive to be the Hayley of their circle. She is such a generous person and I am grateful to have her in my life AND in my wedding!
Groomsman
Sam U.L. Vaughn. Another friendship that started at a conference. This guy is one of the reasons why Alyssa and I are getting married today. This guy gave me some good advice and listened to me when I was trying to figure out what feelings were and why Alyssa was making me feel this way. One of the most Christian guys I know and am so thankful to call him a friend.
Bridesmaid
My sweet little Abby-Grace! She can make anyone laugh in seconds, put a smile on any grump’s face, and spread joy wherever she goes. She is selfless and kind and I am so happy to have her as one of my bridesmaids!
Groomsman
There’s just not enough to explain how class this guy and I have become. I met Trevor while working youth camps and we immediately clicked. Dude is a dork! We have had many nights at the campgrounds and on the phone when we would just talk about everything, especially the stuff that didn’t make any logical sense. One of my closest friends that I know isn’t going anywhere.
Bridesman
Lindsey and I met through my cousins and Disney! She is a generous person who will help a thousand people before even thinking of herself. Lindsey has made so many sacrifices for me and given so much to me without ever asking for a thing in return. She is an amazing friend and will be a beautiful bridesmaid.
Groomsman
The man who helped me embrace the entirety of my nerdiness. Zach and I started off as coworkers where he trained my for Applied behavior analysis. Who knew when I walked into his therapy room to start training it would tie into a lifelong friendship. Zach was placed into my life right before I went through the biggest and most transforming storms that I had ever faced. In the midst of these storms, he would have me at his house, give me a plate of food, and an Xbox controller; just the therapy I needed. He also holds a special place in Alyssa’s heart because he introduced me to the universe of Star Wars (which if it hadn’t, would’ve been a potential deal breaker).
Bridesmaid
I looked up to Medley all throughout my childhood. She taught me how to act like a lady and, more importantly, a princess! She is my cousin, my friend, my bridesmaid.
Groomsman
This is the most opinionated man you will ever meet. Even more opinionated than the 73-year-old war vet at your local donut shop who always gives you unwanted advice. He is also the most faithful man you’ll ever meet. He was the first roommate I had that didn’t show any passive aggressive behavior because if I did something he didn’t like or agree with, I didn’t have to guess what he was thinking. A faithful friend who cares a whole lot more than he would want you to think and makes everybody feel like they belong in whatever setting he is in. So thankful for him and his friendship over the years.
Bridesmaid
Our curly haired baby turned beauty queen! Leighton came into Medley, Luke and my little trio when I was just old enough to be allowed to hold her. She is sharp and quick-witted. I am so glad to have her as one of my bridesmaids!
Junior Groomsman
The ultimate big brother. Liam is such a strong young man. He is mature beyond his years and will make a very handsome junior groomsman.
Junior Bridesmaid
One of my favorite little people in the whole world! Sienna is a girly girl through and through. She is a perfect princess and will make a beautiful junior bridesmaid!
Ring Bearer
The ONLY person we would trust with our rings on our wedding day. Finn is our ring security guard and we’re so thrilled we were able to get such a reliable, serious man for the job.
Bible Boy
Our sweet Bible boy! We had to bribe him with extra cake, but we are so thrilled that Connor will be bringing the word of God to our ceremony.
Flower Girl
Our pretty little flower girl! Reina is a lady through and through. She exudes confidence and is already taking her flower girl duties very seriously!
Flower Girl
Addy is our little miracle. Barely over a year ago, we were afraid we would never get to see her sweet face, hear her precious laugh, or count her tiny toes again. But God saw fit to work out a miracle and she will be with us on our wedding day!
Father of the Bride
My daddy. My whole life he's been there helping me, teaching me, guiding me. We're about to take the most memorable walk together that we will ever take. I am blessed to have had him as my father and I am blessed to have him throughout this whole process. He is my hero.
