Wedding Party
Matthew Johnson
Best Man
What can I say Matt has been my best friend and side kick since day one. I’ve always dreamed of being his best man and watching him marry the women he loves. Now that it’s my turn it is such a blessing to have him stand next to me as my best man. We have gotten through our best times, and our worst times, and one thing I know is Matt will always be here no matter what the time. Matt has been my role model, protector, golf buddy, and the best friend a man could ask for. I will always aim to be half the man he is and to treat our little brother the way he has treated me. I love him with all my heart and will always be here to look after him and support him the way he has for me. Can’t wait to have him next to me on Ash and I’s special day!
Madison Smith
Maid of Honor
They told me I was getting a sister, but they forgot to tell me that I was getting a best friend for life! She’s the funniest, sassiest, & most over dramatic person I know & I truly wouldn’t have her any other way. But, she also has one of the biggest heart out there. She is always there to laugh with me, cry with me, & listen anytime I need it. I’m so thankful for the closeness we share, & I’m so thankful that no matter what I face in life she’ll always be right by my side!
Matthew Fuller-Thompson
Groomsman
What can I say he has been my best friend for more years than I can count. Matt and I did everything together and I miss him every day, but I am so happy for the life he has built for himself in Louisiana. I am so blessed to have someone so selfless and kind to call my best friend. I am so proud to have gotten to be his friend and I will forever hold on to the wonderful memories we have, and I look forward to creating many more in the future. I have also looked up to him and I am thankful for the many lessons I have learned from him that have helped shape me into the man I am today. I will always love him like my own brother and will fly to Louisiana at the drop of a hat if he needs. I am so happy to have him stand next to me on Ash and I’s special day! Love, Steve
Ashley Uber
Bridesmaid
Everyone needs an Ashley as their best friend! We’ve been best friends since we were in kindergarten, & she’s been through every phase of life with me. She’s one person I know I can always count on to be there with me not just through the good times, but through the hard times too. There will never be enough words to say how thankful I am to have her as my best friend, & the friend she has been to me. She’s so much more than a best friend, but a sister & I am just so thankful!
Michael Thompson
Groomsman
Michael means the absolute world to me. Even though we are only a year apart I have always thought of him as a little brother, even though sometimes I find myself looking up to him as the older brother. Michael is one of the funniest, kind hearted, and loving people I have had the pleasure of knowing my entire life. He has always been here for me no matter what the need and has helped me through some of the toughest times of my life. I am so proud to call him one of my best friends. I cherish the memories I have made with him and look forward too many more in the future to come. I will always love him like a brother and will always make time to visit and make an unnecessary amount of pterodactyl noises. I am so proud to have him stand next to me on Ash and I’s special day! Love, Steve
Carson Birchfield
Bridesmaid
The little sister life gave me through watching my little sister grow up. She’s been close with our family since her & Madison were in middle school together. She’s always part of any kind of celebration we might have, so it was only right she stood by me on our special day. It’s been such a blessing watching her grow, & I’m so thankful for the relationship we share. I couldn’t say “I do” without her!
Jacob Smith
Groomsman
Let me tell you Jacob is someone I look up to. I wish I knew how to do half of the things he does. He may not always show it, but he cares for his family more than most people could imagine. I have been so honored to get to know him even if it was only a few conversations at his house, or family get togethers. I can tell you just from those small conversations that he is one of a kind. I am proud to know him and can’t wait to see what life has in store for his future. I know it will be something just as great as he is. I look forward to finally officially being part of his family and having him like a brother. I am so proud to have him stand next to me on Ash and I’s special day! Love, Steve
Josh Cannon
Groomsman
My guy Josh Cannon. He will always be a huge role model for me. He has made a bigger impact on my life than he can imagine. He is so kind, considerate, loving, and one of the hardest working people I have ever met. I have been so blessed getting to know Josh over the past 8 years. He is, and will forever be one of the dearest people in my heart, and one of my best friends. Josh has been there for me just like I was family and he will always be again, and yes again like a brother to me. I love him with all my heart and will always be here to annoy him and be as weird as possible. I am so happy to have him stand next to me on Ash and I’s special day! Love, Steve
Orela Johnson
Bridesmaid
I might have been blessed with a sister, but I’m so excited to be gaining another one. She has been an instant supporter of Steven & I from the very beginning. She’s been such a great cheerleader in my life no matter what it might be. She truly has become not only a sister to me, but a best friend & for that I am truly thankful!
Landon Johnson
Groomsman
I remember the day mom told us she was having another kid. She had called us and told us she had a surprise that we would never guess. Llittle did we know it was going to be another J bro to grace this world. I can tell you now though that I wouldn’t have wanted anything else. Landon is without a doubt one of the smartest, funny, kind hearted souls you will ever meet. I get to be his big brother every day and be that role model that Matt always was for me. I thought I was blessed to have a best friend that was my brother, but I never thought God would bless me with two. I love Landon so much and I can’t wait to watch him grow up and see what the future holds for him as he grows into a young man. I’m so blessed to have him by my side on Ash and I’s special day! Love, Steve
