Wayne & Jasmine
Wedding Party
Paris Johnson
Maid of Honor
Paris has been riding with the Bride since the day she came into this world. Although Jasmine was confused at first, thinking their parents had the wrong baby and bit Paris' finger to see if she was real, they have been inseparable ever since. BUST OUT!
Kyle Johnson
Best Man
Kyle is the Ernie to Wayne's Bert. They've been best friends for years. He's a teacher, musician, and lyricist who plans to write a song about missing his roommate and getting their apartment door lock replaced. There will be a key change at the end. They've always been by each other's sides, so it's no surprise that Kyle will be standing next to Wayne on the big day!
Jantra James
Matron of Honor
Jantra and Jasmine have been friends since '09 and going on double dates since '20. She's also the queen of puns and knows the wedding will be very emotional. Even the cake will be in tiers by the end.
Joshua James
Groomsman
Josh and Wayne have been partners in crime since they were kids. Josh is a rebel with a cause who will double as the Groomsman and Videographer for the special day. You'll also find him on the dance floor bustin' out the latest (dad) moves.
Janine James
Bridesmaid
Janine has known Jasmine since they were in high-school and has known Wayne since she pushed him in children's church. She's loved for her take-charge attitude and is excited to help the couple prepare for all things wedding-related.
Chris Pedro
Groomsman
Old friend. New dad. Chris has been close to Wayne since they were in diapers, and now he's changing diapers for a kid of his own. Time flies and life changes, but Chris and Wayne have remained close, and he can't wait to support the Groom on the wedding day.
Kierra Maddox
Bridesmaid
Kierra is famous for truth-telling in word and facial expression. When she first met Jasmine, Kierra didn’t believe that Jasmine was older than her, so Kierra asked for Jasmine’s ID as proof. They’ve been friends ever since. The wedding is an adult-only event, so Kierra will be carding guests at the door, doubling as a Bridesmaid and Bouncer for the special evening.
Stacey J. Harcum
Groomsman
From late-night jam sessions as teenagers to creating what is now known as The InGlorious music group, Stacey and Wayne have been rockin' together for years. Between Stacey's singing/songwriting and Wayne's musicianship, they bring a unique sound to many spaces. Stacey is also a blast to be around, so he will most definitely pass the mic check and vibe check at the wedding.
Salina Brown
Bridesmaid
Salina is famous for all the jokes. She's funny, and brings joy plus a little bit of shade, all in good fun of course! She's known Jasmine since joining their church in 2014, and they quickly became friends by connecting with each other. She's known Wayne since he came to her wedding as a second videographer and they've been cool since!
Jordan Tucker
Groomsman
He's a runner, he's a track star! Jordan has completed two half-marathons, and he runs even faster at any opportunity to support his friends. He's had Wayne's back through thick and thin, and Jordan is sprinting towards every chance to celebrate the lovely couple. The wedding day can't come fast enough.
Jada Johnson
Bridesmaid
Jasmine is not only Jada's cousin but the conductor of all the bust out Johnson trips. As back seat snack deputy, Jada obviously needed to be a bridesmaid to continue to fulfill her back seat snack duties. You can find her making sure the bride and wedding party are continuously hydrated and snacked up.
Brandon Johnson
Groomsman
Little brother (from another mother) of the Groom. Friend and Confidant. One half of the Common Denominators (if you know then you know). Mentored the Groom in Catan and Super Smash Bros. Mentored by the Groom in sports and people watching. Saw the Groom often before he got hitched (Jasmine won). You can still catch the two of them together every Super Bowl Sunday.
Sarai Austin
Bridesmaid
Sarai is famous for giving unsolicited coffee opinions. Jasmine is her bro’s boo who has assembled almost every piece of furniture in her apartment. #AbbyTheBuilder. Wayne is her brother and A1 since butter-wiches and Bear World!
Bryan Johnson
Groomsman
Bryan is a great friend and confidant. He is the best bear hugger who can also sing his face off. He will be serenading the special couple on their wedding day and providing live music for the guests. Song requests will be accepted!
Israel Maddox
Flower Girl
Israel, also known as Issy, is small but mighty, and famous for seeing and hearing everything. She was thrilled when asked to be the Flower Girl for The Austin Affair, but not surprised. After all, she is the manager of the Bride's affairs and the Bishop of the Groom.
Caleb James
Ring Bearer
Caleb is a three-year-old paleontologist, also known as a 3-Rex, who hopes to unearth the largest dinosaur ever. He also thinks the wedding will be quite the shindig. He accepted the role as ring-bearer as soon as he learned there would be cake involved. You'll catch him on the dance floor, especially if the DJ is playing the soundtracks to Paw Patrol or Mickey Mouse Funhouse!
Isaiah Maddox
Ring Bearer
Isaiah, also known as Zay, is known for his love of toy cars, trucks, and saying what's on his mind. One Sunday after church, he told Jasmine and Wayne that he wanted to be in the wedding. With the most precious smile, how could they say no to his sweet face? Zay is thrilled to be a part of Ring Security for the big day.
Christiana Barbour
Wedding Planner
Christiana is the perfect wedding planner for the special occasion! She's supported the couple throughout their entire engagement by visiting the venue, preparing the timeline, and handling every detail, big and small. She's made the planning process as smooth as possible, and our wedding team wouldn't be complete without her!
Cara Stone
Wedding Communications Specialist
Cara has managed all things communication-related for the wedding. She enjoys creating unique designs and ensuring everyone is up to date on wedding information! Cara will also serve as hostess for the Austin Affair and will try not to cry. If you receive a tear-stained program, you'll know why!
Diana Tucker
Bride's Armor Bearer
Diana is a "ride or die" friend so she's the perfect person to serve as the bride's armor bearer. She'll be the bride's right hand gal by attending to her needs and covering her throughout the special day. You'll find Diana supporting Jasmine fiercely, up until she passes the torch to Wayne when the couple says "I Do!"
