Bridesmaid
Rebecca is another one of Anna’s best friends and also a great friend to Matt. Rebecca and Anna were actually basically set up due to their late friend Ashleigh’s matchmaking and the rest was history! Looking back now Anna knows that Ashleigh 100% knew what she was doing because she knew how much Anna would love Rebecca and how well they would naturally click. While Anna will always be thankful for so many things Ashleigh has added to her life while she was here introducing her to Rebecca will always be at the very top of that list. Anna refers to Rebecca as her “sunshine” or “angel on Earth” as she has always been a ray of light in the darkness. She truly is the life of the party and the number one hype woman for all of her loved ones. She has a heart of gold and loves just as hard as she parties!
Bridesmaid
Ashley is another one of Anna’s best friends and has also been a big part of Matt’s life as well. Anna and Ashley were also introduced by their late friends Blake and Ashleigh. Ashley has been another blessing in Anna’s life and has taught her to have faith in herself and to be the best that she can be no matter what. Ashley is guaranteed to bring the energy anytime she is around in the best way possible! She has a laugh unlike any other and leaves a lasting impression anywhere she goes!
Bridesmaid
Ashley is Matt’s older sister (even though she doesn’t look a day over 21) and someone that Anna greatly looks up to! Although they drove each other crazy at times when they were younger you would never be able to tell because Matt and Ashley have such a beautiful bond and great love for each other. In fact if you asked Matt what he loves most about Ashley he would tell you “That she loves me and has my back no matter what. That she will tell me what I need to hear, not necessarily what I want to hear”. Ashley is always a joy to be around and has a personality that’s unmatched! Anna really hit the lottery when it came to her future in laws and is beyond thankful that she will get to do life with Ashley as her sister. Ashley has always made Anna feel welcomed and has always been able to bring a smile to her face with every interaction. Even if it’s just endless hours of tik toks and Instagram reels!
Best Man
Tyler is a best friend to both Matt and Anna. Matt and Tyler met many years ago through their friend Blake and always had a great relationship. Matt’s favorite qualities about Tyler will always be “that he will help you with whatever you have going on no matter what. He is blunt and honest. He’s a no bullshit kinda guy and he’s also quite funny.” Although Anna and Tyler had known each other for a couple of years they didn’t really develop a strong friendship until their friend Blake passed away. It was almost as if he placed them together because he knew they would need each other to lean on in his passing. That friendship was sealed for a lifetime in a Waffle House parking lot where let’s be honest some of life’s best memories are made. To be honest Tyler played a huge part in getting Matt and Anna together and that’s something they will both always be thankful for. Tyler is someone that will go to war without hesitation for his loved ones and really will drop what he’s doing at the drop of the hat if you need him. He’s as loyal as they come and equally as selfless. While the saying goes “he would give the shirt off of his back to anyone that asks” Tyler takes that expression a step further. Anyone that knows him knows how meticulous he is about everything in his shop so with that being said I would go a step further to say he would give you the very last towel in his shop if you asked.
Groomsman
Thomas is Matt’s cousin in which he would more so consider him a brother! Growing up the two of them were inseparable and the love they have for each other is just as strong now if not stronger. Matt cherished every memory he’s had with Thomas even if it was something as simple as getting drunk and blowing up a spray paint can in a fire! Thomas can definitely be the life of the party as well with his sense of humor and his special set of social skills that allow him to turn any stranger he may meet into a friend. Thomas is always kind and true to his word, and as Matt says “He’s a teddy bear until he has to turn into a grizzly.”
Groomsman
Curt is another one of Matt’s best friends and has been a big part of Anna’s life as well. Matt and Curt met in high school and shared a brotherhood that was untouchable. Anna also met Curt when she was in high school and clicked with him instantly! Curt had always been one of the most kind and loving people there is and he’s someone you can always put your full trust in to. He is also the type of friend that be there for you without hesitation and pour endless positivity into you even if he himself is struggling. Curt is a blast to be around and is always so bubbly and full of personality! Curt is also a teddy bear himself and always makes sure to let his loved ones know how much he cares!
Groomsman
Sam is another one of Matt’s best friends and someone that has also been a big part of Anna’s life. Matt met Sam in high school as well, while Anna met Sam a little later through Matt! Sam and Matt also shared a bond that could be considered a brotherhood or as some may call it a “Wolfpack”. Sam is just a full on goofball that honestly should be a comedian somewhere or at least have his own show. Sam is the type of person that can turn anything in to a joke so when the whole group is together everyone’s stomach usually hurts by the end of the night from laughter. Sam is also the type of person that would drop what he was doing to help you and he loves his loved ones to the absolute fullest! Sam is always full of life and will never let you leave his presence without bringing a smile to your face!
Flower Man
Chris is Rebecca’s significant other and a perfect addition to the tribe! Chris is just as much the life of the party as Rebecca is which is one of the reasons why Matt and Anna feel like they make the perfect match! Chris has a sense of humor that is out of this world which goes hand in hand with the energy level that he brings with him everywhere he goes. When Anna and Matt met Chris he left a lasting impression on the two of them that he was here to stay. They both knew almost instantly that they wanted to include him in their big day, but also didn’t want him to think they were crazy for asking him to be a groomsman when at that point in time they had only known him for a few months. They decided then that they would make a role just for him to be involved and would ask him to be their “flower man”. (Let’s be honest there’s no one on the face of the earth more perfect for this role than Chris.) Chris’s performance is one of the things that both Matt and Anna are looking most forward to on their wedding day!
