Wedding Party
Stephanie
Maid of Honor
I’ve known Sarah since childhood. We became good friends in high school and spent many weekends gathered in my parents' kitchen making crazy concoctions and just being goofy teenagers with our friends. Since high school, we have always tried to stay in touch and get together when possible, taking mini vacations to random small towns or just watching one of our favorite shows, Psych. Sarah has always been my sounding board and is a true and amazing friend. I am honored to be her Maid of Honor.
Allison
Maid of Honor
Sarah and I met our freshman year of college and were roommates all 4 years. We quickly realized we were practically the same person. We both have a love for traveling, children, crafting, The Office, and many other random things. Though our jobs have placed us in different states, we have remained close friends over all these years.
Amanda
Bridesmaid
Hi, my name is Amanda Nogee. I have been blessed to know Sarah for the past 12 years. I met her after I started dating her brother, Matt (who is now my husband). Sarah and I have enjoyed countless laughs as well as a life-changing trip to Colombia together. I couldn't ask for a more supportive and inspirational sister-in-law and am excited to welcome Jesse into the family!
Bridget
Bridesmaid
I am Bridget Wood, Jesse’s oldest younger sister (for those of you who don’t follow I am number two of five kids). So I guess you could say we met pretty early in life. Throughout the years Jesse has not only been my older brother but also a great friend and bodyguard. Sarah, I hope you are ready for a life filled with laughter, true friendship, and always feeling safe!
Billie
Bridesmaid
If you didn't know, Jesse is my older brother, so basically, I got stuck with him. It's proven to be a good thing though. He's the oldest and I'm the youngest, with a ten year age gap. Even though we have such a large age gap, if you ask our mother she will tell you that according to birth order personalities firstborns and fifth borns are supposed to be very similar and I have to admit - she is right. Jesse and I both did DECA in high school (and won some awards might I add) and have always been the wheeler-dealers of the family. Jesse has always been a wealth of advice whether it be last minute sales assignmentes, help with marketing class or general advice. It's been so fun growing up alongside Jesse and I'm SO happy he found Sarah to bring into the ever-growing Barron Family.
Joseph Barron
Best Man
Jesse has always been the big brother that looks out for his younger siblings through his kind and thoughtful gestures, and I was no exception. I remember when I was turning 21 on a Tuesday in Winona, MN and he made the sacrifice to take work off and come help my friends and I celebrate. Not only did he do this for me, but he was able to help all 4 of his siblings celebrate their 21st birthdays! I’m very excited to be getting a new sister in Sarah and happy for all the joy and happiness they will be sharing with each other as they join together in marriage.
Josh Barron
Best Man
Just wanted to say big congratulations to Jesse and Sarah, so happy for you two to start a new chapter of your lives together. And just happy I get to be a part of your big day!

I have known Jesse since the first day of first grade. In fact, there is very little I remember before I met him. We grew up playing sports or just hanging out. It didn't matter what the plans were, Jesse was always there. I have so many great memories throughout my life that would never have been the same without Jesse there to share laughter or support. Although Jesse moved away we still talk regularly and it always feels like we haven't missed a day.
Wade Goodsell
Groomsman
Jesse and I first met when we were 6 years old in first grade, along with Brian and Zach, marking the beginning of 'The Usual Suspects'. Growing up in the same neighborhood, we remained thick as thieves through elementary, middle and high school. I was on the court when 'Maddogg' was born during freshman year tennis. One of us was the quarterback and one was the center, I'll let you guess who was who. At Bethel University, we lived together for three years, majored in marketing together and had a whole lot of fun! With 25 years of friendship and brotherhood under our belts, I couldn't be more excited for him. He's been my best friend through every high and low. He's fun, loyal, has a strong faith and big heart. It's an honor to stand with him as he makes a great decision to marry Sarah!
Matt Nogee
Groomsman
My name is Matt Nogee and I first had the pleasure of meeting Jesse when Sarah introduced him to the rest of the family. It has been great getting to know Jesse over the past couple years and I couldn’t be more excited to welcome him to the family! I look forward to spending more time together hunting and fishing in the years to come

I can’t remember when we first met but can remember very well spending a Summer with Jesse aka Mad 🐶 in Seattle. Nothing like sharing a Summer Internship experience with one of your best friends...working together, living together and sharing some interesting times. Yes, we did share a bedroom and slept in the same bed. I will tell you Jesse is a sound sleeper. It got a bit interesting in that room when we experienced some of the hottest nights on record (100+) w/o AC. So, with all that said, I am very excited for Jesse to start the next season of life and hopefully his most fulfilling as a man and husband. God is great!

Jesse “Maddogg” Barron is one of my truest friends. We met in college at Bethel University and have had many adventures together. From Tampa to Tulsa, Danielson to Tracy Ave, South Dakota to Wisconsin, I have always counted on the pooch to be my scramble golf teammate, “table games partner”, and road trip co-pilot extraordinaire.

When I was pulling into Bethel to be dropped off at college - I remember seeing two guys walking together. My dad jokingly asked if the one guys was really small or of the other guys was just really tall. I said I thought both! When I got up to my room I was greeted by the shorter guy(Wade Goodsell) who introduced me to Jesse. I still remember what he said to me, "My name is Jesse but you can call me Maddogg." We spent a ton of time together over the years and I couldn't be any happier to see one of my best friends getting married. I'm honored to be your friend and look forward to spending the day celebrating your wedding!
