Wedding Party
Mason Phelps
Best Man
The one ... the only (brother!) The one who has known Patton the longest - from day one actually. The brother who would get Patton in trouble often but always had his best interest at heart. He’s the guy, that as a teenager, single handedly beat out Michael Phelps (not related) at a swim meet. Today, Mason serves our great nation as a Lieutenant Colonel for the United States Air Force. Pretty cool guy, if we do say so ourselves.
Hillary Erickson
Best Woman
The one who loves EPCOT'S International Food & Wine Festival as well as Sia as much as Blakey does. She is the one who always says yes including walking numerous miles across downtown Houston at 11 PM with Blakey. Hillary has helped Blakey with some of his most important as well as trivial decisions. She also is the one who got Blakey addicted to Orangetheory! Her keen sense of humor, southern heart, and love of brunch mimosas have always been appreciated by the grooms.
Jana Yong
Groomswoman
The one known as Patton's first ginger love. Yes, it is all natural. From the day the two met at a pool in College Station, both Jana and Patton have always followed a few simple words: "You don't need a diamond ring when you can have a really big closet." Good luck to both of their husbands. She has a fabulous shoe collection, a heart of gold, and a kind soul.
Blake Michell
Groomswoman
The one who is always available for a good time & night out as well as dining on unlimited breadsticks and fettuccine at Olive Garden. Blake & Blakey have been known to get into some precarious situations together, but Blake has always been there for Blakey in Dallas. While visiting Neiman Marcus NorthPark Level 2, California based interior designer Kelly Wearstler once said, “Bsquared are so cute together.” Sidebar: Bsquared = Blake + Blakey
Ailsa Nelson
Groomswoman
The one known as the fashion forgiver. Please open your TWHS 2003 - 2004 yearbook to page 142 to see a teen with frosted tips, a puka shell necklace and double popped collar. One measure of friendship consists not in the number of things friends can discuss, but in the number of things they need no longer mention. More importantly, she has been an unwavering friend throughout time.
Michelle Rodriguez
Groomswoman
The one who accompanied Blakey to his first gay bar in college while at the University of North Texas. Blakey accidentally left Michelle at the bar that night. They later laughed the following week over mac n cheese and Oreos while retracing the events that transpired that one transformative evening. Blakey first introduced Michelle to Sidecars on his 28 birthday at The Broadmoor in Colorado Springs.
Alex Lazcano
Usher
The one who loves to celebrate and has a passion for new experiences. She always has a glass of champagne in her hand ready to toast and welcome all to the party.
Ryan Polendo
Usher
The one who always knows how to make others feel included and special. His quick wit, devilish looks, and refined manners are sure to make anyone smile and feel welcomed.
Oliver “Ollie” Phelps
RING BEARER & HONORARY BEST MAN
Due to a prior commitment, Ollie will be unable to attend. He sends his warmest regards, love, and well wishes to his dads, the grooms.
