Wedding Party

Cheyenne Blair

Matron of Honor

Cheyenne and Arin met in 6th grade P.E at Lamar middle school, where they helped each other through various athletic struggles. Cheyenne couldn’t run to save her life and people ran in fear when Arin had a basketball in her hands. So the two helped each other to succeed and their friendship turned into one for the ages. Cheyenne still can’t run but now spends her days chasing her three beautiful children. Cheyenne enjoys a variety of handy crafts such as knitting, sewing, embroidery, etc, and she’s a pretty good baker as well.

Zack Jones

Best Man

Sarah Anderson

Bridesmaid

Sarah is Arin’s favorite baby sister. She currently lives in Phoenix where she is studying to become an expressive arts therapist. One day, she will be living in Arin and Paxton’s guests house.

Ethan Glick

Groomsman

"I am a CPA from southern Illinois, and I've known Pax for about 7 years now. We met through mutual friends while I was in college through a game of D&D, and have been friends ever since."

McKenna Jacquemet

Bridesmaid

McKenna first met Arin in the Summer of 2012 while on the bus to Hendrix College’s camping orientation trip. First, she shared cookies with Arin (not McKenna’s cookies but rather snacks for everyone, a fact McKenna forgot to share with said person) and then McKenna “forced” Arin to share a tent with her and another girl because all 3 girls had neglected to socialize on the bus ride over in favor of reading. It was friendship at first sight (or rather cookie).

Devlin Bohannon

Groomsman

I'm a CAD draftsman. I met Paxton 10ish years ago through Gabe and we put an unbelievable amount of time into League of Legends and Minecraft.

Emily Nichols

Bridesmaid

Emily Nichols has known Arin and Paxton for over 10 (!!!) years. From sharing a tent to breaking into Arin's apartment with a bottle of wine to moving apartments one armful at a time, they have ~been through it~ together. Emily is ecstatic to be by Arin's side on her special day.

Gabriel Elders

Groomsman

Gabriel has known Paxton and Arin for 10 years. For one unfortunate year, Gabriel and Paxton were roommates in college. Their friendship remains intact, but the grime (a group effort) was unforgettable.

Jessica Steele

Officiant

Jess has known Paxton and Arin since starting her job at the library the same day as Paxton in 2017. They became fast friends and no matter where everyone is in the world, they come together for Friendsgiving every year. Jessica is so thrilled to be celebrating their wedding with them.
