Amanda & Billyjack
Wedding Party
Bart Lonardo
Best Man
Bart and Billy have been friends and co-workers for 7 years. They share a love of "their" motorcycle; they love to ride, snow mobile, go cart anything that gets their adrenaline pumping. Whenever they get together they have a good time. Bart is that buddy that you can go to with anything, no judgment just a listening ear, a piece of advice, or someone to make it seem not so glum (most of the time with a sarcastic comment). He has been there since the beginning, he knows Amanda and Billy as a couple probably better than most people since he was literally there to witness it all unfold. Bart and Billy have developed such a genuine close friendship over the last 7 year and he has become a brother to Amanda and they are honored to have him standing up with them at their wedding.
Ashley Warnock
Matron of Honor
Cousin of the Bride, Ashley has been who Amanda has looked up to most of her life. She is amazing at everything she puts her mind to; she is so crafty and sporty and just an all around kick as person! She knows Amanda better than most, she loves hard and she will put Amanda in her place (which is something she needs every once and awhile) but she will also protect her the most. She is Amanda's cousin, sister, best friend, and so so much more! "God made us cousins because he knew our parents couldn't handle us a sisters"
Chad Warnock
Groomsman
Chad is married to Amanda's cousin Ashley but he is so much more than that to our family. He has been in Amanda's life since she was little and he is like a big brother to her. He and Billy have hit it off since the first time they met, always talking about home repairs or sports. Chad is there whenever you need and always willing to lend a hand, get down and dirty or get creative. We are honored to call him family.
Jenna Maynard
Bridesmaid
Jenna is Amanda’s oldest friend and one of her very best friends. She is so smart and put together, she know how to have fun but all get shit done! She is the kindest most loving loyal person, her spirit and energy light up the room. There is something to be said for a friendship that has spanned two decades with no major fights. We are so beyond blessed to have her in our day to day lives. Jenna makes any day better!
Megan Nicholson
Bridesmaid
Megan is married to Amanda's cousin Kyle. She is Amanda's hair dresser which also means therapist every 8 weeks! She covers her grays and helps her work through problems and puts things in perspective and she has no problem putting Amanda in her place either (those Nicholson's keep her in check. She is an awesome advice giver, an amazing mama, a great friend and such a special part of our family!
Kyle Nicholson
Groomsman
Kyle is Amanda's cousin, they have always been close, from playing house as kids, to making soap and candles, to baking and now to being parents and aunt and uncle to one another's children. Kyle is someone who is important to Amanda in her life and who Billy connected with right away talking about tech things, cars, and home repairs. Kyle knows how to have good time and you can definitely count on him to liven up the party!
Patti Moffitt
Bridesmaid
Patti is Billy’s older sister but he has always been her protector. Even though Billy was the youngest Patti has always been his little sister. He is who she would call when something needed to be fixed or when one of the kids needed to be put in line and she is who he would call for advise or to vent or to just have a listening ear. They have a strong bond and have continued to be close through so many years and life changes which is such a special thing.
Brian Moffitt
Groomsman
Brian is Billy’s brother-in-law. He has been in Billy’s life for over 20 years, they have grown up together and made some of the best memories from demolition derbies to cutting down trees with an ax, Brian is Billy’s side kick for all the crazy things he wants to do but he also brings the voice of reason to the situation (most of the time). Brian is up for anything and he is the most supportive and understanding person who Billy feels honored to call his brother.
Ashlee Moffitt
Bridesmaid
Ashlee is Billy’s niece, she is the oldest and Billy has always had a very special and close relationship with her. She is like a daughter to him and he is who she calls when she needs to get bailed out of a situation. Billy is also who her parents call when they need some sense talked into her. He’s the hammer. Billy has taught Ashlee to shoot, to build things and has also taken her to a father daughter dance. The love between the two of them is such a big part of who they are. Ashlee’s spirit and personality bring so much joy and frustration to her family. We cannot imagine our lives without her.
Luis Carvalho
Officiant/Groomsman
Luis has been Billy's friend and co-worker for 5 years now. He is strong, hardworking, and a loyal friend. He would do anything for the people he loves and has such a genuine soul. Lu is like a brother to both Amanda and Billy. He has been so many places, experienced so many things, and helped/met so many people from different walks of life that he has such unique insight on things. From hunting to missionary trips, cult classic knowledge to literary references Lu has such a good vibe about him that he adds enjoyment to any event. We are lucky enough to have him as not only our officiant but also a groomsman!
Krysta James Warnock
Flower Girl
Krysta is Ashley and Chad's daughter and Amanda and Billy's neice. She is a spit fire baby genius who has the most fierce spirit in the tiniest little package! Her spirit, her personality, her smarts...if you are around her you will be amazed. She is our whole families miracle and we love her beyond measure and we are so lucky to have her as our flower girl!
Landon Michael Nicholson
Ring Bearer
Landon is Kyle and Megan's son and also Amanda and Billy's nephew! He is the definition of a boys boy, rough and tough and ready for trouble. He is so smart and curious that trouble finds him but he is also the sweetest boy there is and when he does cuddle up or give you a big kiss it is so loving. This little boy is such a character and he is going to add so much fun and love to our day!
Kyle, Tia, and Tyler
Children of the Bride and Groom
Kyle, Tia, and Tyler are the children of the bride and groom. It's not easy to go through change and to accept new people into your life and family but all of these kids have done that and then some. There have been bumps in the road and it will always be a work in progress but these kids really do love one another like siblings (and fight like it too). To Tia and Tyler Amanda would like to say I love you as though you are mine, I will protect you and be there for you always, there is no limit to what I would do for you, I'm so lucky to be your step-mom and to call you my children. To Kyle Billy would like to say from the beginning we have bonded, I love you and I will always be here for you, you are my son and I am so glad that I get to be your step-dad.
