Maid of Honor
Picture this: it’s 2001-ish. The coolest thing ever was hanging out at the McDonald’s next to our high school. Amber is there, hanging with some of her friends, (because who doesn’t chill in a parking lot after 10pm?!) and then comes Hailey McDonald (no pun intended- this is her maiden name, I promise!) Pulling in next to Amber’s car… and she runs into it. From that moment on, they were the best of friends! It doesn’t matter how long they go without seeing one another-their friendship prevails each gap in time. Hailey has been there for Amber through so many ups & downs… so many different life phases- from mean girls, college speech class, to weddings & babies! Amber knows Hailey will always be there for her, no matter what! There truly is no one else qualified to serve as Amber’s MOH. The best friends are lifetime friends!
Groom
Jace graduated with a bachelor's in Biblical Studies, has traveled around the United States spreading the word of God, and loves spending time with his new family.

Best Man
Jace and Logan met each other while attending University of Cristian University in Edmond, Oklahoma during a time they needed each other the most. Logan has always been a godly man who pushes Jace to be closer to the Lord. He has been by Jace's side through the some of the hardest times of Jace's life and has proven he will always stick by Jace's side. They love eating Buffalo Wild Wings together and Jace's fondest memory of Logan is when they played mini golf. The two best friends worked as RAs together in college, and Logan's wife, Makayla Engle, got Jace the job at Apollo which eventually led him to meet Amber.
