Best Man
Hi Everyone, I’m Marcus. I met Billy at USF when we used to be rivals competing for the same position. Our competition grew into friendship and then a brotherhood during our time at USF. I had a great time playing alongside him and I can truly call him my brother from another mother. I am grateful and honored to be a part of his momentous day. Can’t wait!!
Matron of Honor
I’ve known Chelsea since she was a brand-new nurse, when I had the honor (and patience 😉) of being one of her main preceptors. From the very beginning, there was an instant connection that I still can’t fully explain; something between we work really well together and oh no, this is one of my people. What started in scrubs and long shifts quickly turned into a friendship that grew far beyond the hospital walls. She’s become not just an incredible nurse, but one of the most loyal, thoughtful, and fun humans I know. Along the way, she became part of my family woven into the highs, the lows, and everything in between. Seeing her with my kids, welcoming her into our home, and coming to visit us has been incredibly special. She loves them so genuinely, and they absolutely adore her. Those moments mean more to me than she probably knows. We’ve done life together: late-night talks, big milestones, spontaneous trips, and adventures that somehow always turn into stories we still laugh about. She’s stood beside me through it all including being there for not just one, but both of my weddings. From traveling and celebrating to surviving chaos with humor (and snacks), Chelsea has been a constant: someone who shows up, tells it like it is, and makes even the hard moments lighter. Standing beside Chelsea on this most special day feels deeply full-circle and incredibly meaningful. I couldn’t be more honored or more excited to be right next to her as she begins this beautiful next chapter.

I met Billy as a student Athlete at USF our Freshman year. We became friends when he helped me fill up a Red neck hot tub also know as a 6x10 kiddie pool full of shower water in my dorm. It later became forbidden for pools to be in a dorm room. (Somehow it's a fire hazard.) Billy and I have been friends for over a Decade and in that time I have never seen him so happy as he is with Chelsea. I'm excited to see the union of two incredible people who complement each other so well! Looking forward to seeing Nick Saban come out of retirement to coach your kids!!

I have had the pleasure of knowing Chelsea since our days at West Marine. Even though we didn’t actually work that many shifts together, the ones we did were always quite an adventure. From the second I heard Chelsea’s relentless sarcasm and her—let’s say—'unfiltered' sense of humor, I knew we were going to be friends. What I didn’t realize then was that our witty work banter would evolve into a lifelong friendship that would stand both time and distance. Over the years we've shared meals, conversations, and laughter, and even down to literally ripping out baseboards in your house, it’s been an honor to be in her corner. Chelsea, watching you grow into the woman you are today has been a privilege, and I’m so grateful to be a friend to you and your family.

I don’t truly remember when I met Billy. All I know is that Billy and I were neighborhood kids. We grew up side by side and spent most of our time together. We’ve made lifelong memories, and over the years Billy has been like a big brother to me. He has helped guide me through life. Of course, there were moments along the way, like when he tried to catch the house on fire, but those just make the memories even better. It makes me so happy that we get to celebrate him and Chelsea as they begin their life together.
Bridesmaid
Chelsea is my youngest cousin and I have known her since she was the cutest baby in the world. Trust me, she was! I have watched her grow up and we have always had a special bond. In fact, she was in my wedding and it’s an honor to have the opportunity to be in hers. Since I’ve watched Chelsea grow up, I’ve witnessed her go through many different phases and transformations, and ultimately grow into the amazing woman that she is today. I’m so excited to witness her transformation into a bride and wife, and it’s my privilege to be supporting her through it as her bridesmaid.

Watching Chelsea grow into who she is today has been such a joy, and I couldn’t be more proud of her. The way she genuinely cares for people—both in her career and in her everyday life—says so much about her heart and character. Together, she and Billy are just so much fun, and so sweet together. What I truly admire is how intentional they’ve been in building their relationship and approaching marriage. I’m so excited for what’s ahead and grateful to celebrate this special chapter with them.
