Wedding Party
Tory & Brett
Maid of Honor & Bridesman
Tory is Sara’s older sister who she has looked up to since she was a little girl. She is an amazing mother of two girls, Emme and Mila, with Emme being Sara’s goddaughter. Tory is not only Sara’s sister, but one of her best friends. She has been the rock in Sara’s life by showing her unconditional love and support every step of the way. She also threw Sara and Alex the most amazing bachelorette party they could have ever asked for. These are only a few reasons that have made her more than deserving of the title “maid of honor.” Brett is Tory’s fiancé and an amazing father to their two daughters. If Sara had the choice to choose a partner for her sister, Brett is the exact person she would have chosen. He is the life of the party, loves to dance, and always has a smile on his face. Sara was honored to call him one of her bridesman.
Charlotte Beisel
Maid of Honor
Alex's maid of honor...the one and only, Charlotte. Everyone who knows Charlotte is aware that she lights up a room and always brings the laughs. I've been honored to walk by her side for over 17 years and watch her grow into an amazing friend, partner, future comedian, barista artist and much more. Now that we live our own adult lives, more time passes between chats and hang outs but we can still always count on each other, like a great friendship should be. I could not imagine anyone else having the title of maid of honor other than Char. Would our 8 year old, skater girl selves ever think we'd come this far? I love you Charlie, thank you for being here for Sara and I today and beyond.
Thomas & Shelby
Bridesman & Bridesmaid
Thomas is Sara’s older brother, a loving husband to his wife Shelby, and an awesome father to his daughter Robin. Sara has chosen Thomas to be not only one of her bridesmen, but also the officiant of their wedding. He has been the best big brother a sister could ask for. From wrestling together as little kids, to going on double dates as adults, Thomas has shown Sara that a brother can also be your best friend. Shelby is Sara’s sister in law, and someone she also considers one of her best friends. She has welcomed Sara with open arms since the first day they met, as Sara has done for her. Sara and Shelby bonded instantly, and she couldn’t have asked for a better woman to love her brother.
Ava Shuren
Bridesmaid
Alex's bridesmaid and sister, Ava... Formalities don't matter here, Ava and I are sisters through and through. She was brought into my life when she was only 5 years old and I've loved her ever since. She's a tomboy at heart, who hunts with her dad and loves alternative music. I mean, she's the coolest now 18 year old ever. I'm so glad we only have the good side of a sister relationship, no fighting over clothes, just me trying to give her eyelash lifts and Ava teaching me about crossbows...I cannot wait to have her standing beside Sara and I and to blend our two families.
Gemma Pentecost
Junior Bridesmaid
Gemma, the most cute, funny, quirky 11 (almost 12) year old, Alex's sister and junior bridesmaid! She loves playing the cello, participating in her school's off broadway productions, ignoring her brothers, dance parties and hearing the latest gossip. If you know her then you love her, and we sure do a lot, I'm honored to have this young woman beside me on my wedding day!
Pam & Matt
Bridesmaid & Bridesman
Pam is one of Sara’s best friends since high school, an awesome wife to her to husband Matt, and a badass engineer. Sara has admired Pams strength, determination, and devotion to her life and career, which are a few of the many reasons she wanted Pam to be standing right next to her at the alter. Sara also had the privilege of being Pam’s bridesmaid at her wedding. Matt is Sara’s brother from another mother, aka best friends since birth. He has stood by Sara’s side through every phase of her life, which she could not thank him enough for. Matt can bring a smile to any room with his humor and goofiness. If there’s anyone you want to party with on the dance floor, he’s the guy to look for.
Haleigh Alicea
Bridesmaid
Haleigh and Alex's friendship began like many female friendships do...in a women's restroom. 13 years, a few relationships, GNO's, wine nights in, a semester of college and many window-down car rides have passed and we can still count on each other. Naturally, as girls, we had talked about "wedding day" for so long and I couldn't imagine Haleigh not standing next to me on this special occasion. Not only will she be my beloved bridesmaid, but also helping me get ready for the big day, and I can't wait to enjoy this beautiful moment where one of my best friends helps me prepare for the rest of my life...Thank you Hal for cruising through life with me and being there for Sara and I on the most important day of our lives!
Madison
Bridesmaid
Madison is Sara’s cousin and somebody she considers her second sister. She is an avid animal lover, pursuing her career as a veterinarian technician, while also fostering animals at her own home. Sara is incredibly grateful of the support Maddie has given her through every phase of her life by encouraging her to be her true self. She has shown Sara what it means to be not only family, but a best friend.
Angela
Bridesmaid
Angela is one of Sara’s best friends since high school. She has shown Sara what it means to have true strength and persistence by always putting others before herself, and taking pride in her career working for a nonprofit organization. Angela loves to live her life to the fullest by constantly traveling and going to music festivals. It’s safe to say she has an incredibly infectious light around her, which is why it is so easy to not only call her a best friend, but also consider her a part of the family.
Christopher
Bridesman
Chris is Sara’s business partner and one of her best friends. They met 4 years ago, both working for a concrete coating company and decided to branch out and open a company of their own together, Timeless. Although they have only known each other for a few years, Sara considers him a part of the family and couldn’t thank him enough for all of the hard work he has put into their company. He has been not only an incredible business partner, but a truly amazing friend.
Trip & Grayson Pentecost
Ring Bearer
These two boys will be guarding the rings with all of their strength! Trip is 14, loves building, video games and taking care of cats at the animal shelter. Grayson is just 9 years old but definitely an old soul. He loves anything to do with sports, specifically the Kansas City Chiefs and his new pup-nephew (Tini) is obsessed with him! Trip and Grayson will be acting security at the Badamo Wedding, so everyone be on your best behavior...
Emme
Flower Girl
Emme is Sara’s beautiful, goofy, smart, and loving goddaughter and niece. She loves Barbie’s, swimming, soccer, and playing with her little sister Mila. If Taylor Swift, moana, or frozen are on the radio, you will definitely find Emme singing along to every lyric. She is Auntie Sasa’s favorite 4 year old, and she couldn’t have asked for a better flower girl to help walk her down the aisle.
Mason
Flower Boy
Mason is Alex’s cute and goofy 4 year old cousin. He loves ninja turtles, dressing up as superheroes, sleepovers with grandma, landscaping, and has found a new love in the lion king. He is also Tini’s favorite person to play with. Alex couldn’t have asked for any one better to help walk her down the aisle than this handsome little man.
