Maid of Honor
Karis has been my best friend for 19 years. She really is the definition of a true friend. I have relied on Karis through every major event in my life. She is one of the most funny, gentle, and caring people you will meet! We’ve been through a lot together, and I couldn’t imagine having anyone else by my side as I walk into this new season of my life. I am so grateful to have her as my maid of honor!
Best Man
Jaron and I must have walked every street in Anne Arundel County, spending hours just talking about life and God and anything else we could think of to talk about. Those long late-night talks have been so valuable to me- He’s just a great guy to spend a whole day with. I can always count on him for timely wisdom and advice. It was never a question for me who my best man would be!
Bridesmaid
Veronica is my cousin, and one of my best friends! Growing up with her was such a privilege. We were born in the same year, so we hit lots of the same milestones together. Our whole childhood, we were together at every family event. We have spent countless hours on the phone updating each other on life and laughing about our memories together. She is so talented, quick witted, and so much fun to be around! We’re so excited she came all the way from NY to celebrate with us!
Groomsman
Matthew has always been a great leader, and I’m grateful that he took me aside and showed me a more perfect way. I like laughing with Matthew; we always seem to end up going back and forth until someone finally has the final word to make us both laugh out loud.
Bridesmaid
Ava has been like a little sister to me for years and years! She is absolutely one of the funniest people I know. One of my favorite memories with Ava is the time we shared a room at camp in extreme heat. The situation was definitely not ideal…but Ava turned it into a great week. She brightens any room she’s in. Her energy and humor are just part of what makes her so special. I am so honored that she is a part of our wedding!
Groomsman
Kris is always ready to make plans and spend time together. There were countless nights spent at his home with all of our friends, even only weeks after having met him. Kris from the beginning has always seemed to know exactly how to make me laugh. He is a great friend.
Bridesmaid
Roma is another one of my cousins. She and I were also born in the same year! We have spent lots of time together doing fun things. Some of my favorite memories with her are swimming in our grandparents pool together, camping with just our sleeping bags, and driving across the country to visit national parks. She is such a wonderful person and I’m so glad she could be a part of our wedding!
Groomsman
At a prayer night with all the younger guys, Caleb mentioned that he wanted us to know that even if it feels like nobody is praying for you, he is praying for you. That’s who Caleb is, and there is no one more encouraging and no one more thoughtful. I’m very honored to have him as one of my groomsmen.
Bridesmaid
Myla has been like a sister to me. Her and Nathanael have both been such great role models to Paul and myself. Myla is kind, hospitable, and a fantastic friend. I know I can count on her for anything. Her warmth and hospitality has been an inspiration to both of us. I am so grateful to have her in our wedding!
Groomsman
Nathanael and his wife have been so kind and hospitable to Alyssia and I. Whenever we are invited over for dinner or board game night, I can’t help but look forward to it all week long. Nathanael, the best day of my life, and from now on the best days, are finally fully come.
Bridesmaid
Violet is my also my cousin! She is so much fun to be around. Our whole childhood, when Veronica and I would come up with a game to play, Violet was always a good sport and played along. I’m so grateful we got to grow up seeing each other often! I genuinely couldn’t imagine my wedding without Violet being a part.
Groomsman
I look at Declan, and I see a lion, a bastion of faith and godly character. All of us look up to Declan, and you can always get a thoughtful, wise response out of him. All of that, and he’s also one of the funniest guys I know, what’s not to like?
Bridesmaid
Felicity is my soon-to-be sister in law!! I am so thrilled to be gaining a sister, and I am very blessed to gain one as wonderful as Felicity! She has been an amazing sister to Paul, and is an amazing mother. From my first time meeting her as Paul’s girlfriend, she has been nothing but welcoming and kind. I am so excited that she could be in our wedding!
Groomsman
Ian and I essentially grew up together, since both of us were saved around the same time. Here’s a man that loves God, diligently seeks him, and doesn’t lean on his own understanding. He’s watched me grow, and I’ve watched him grow; it’s been an eventful several years. I’ve noticed and admired how thoughtful and reliant upon Jesus he’s always been when making big life decisions.
