Jacob Hays

Michael Byford
Groomsman
Daniel and Michael met immediately after being born together. As twins they were a handful for their parents, if that’s how you want to describe it. Daniel and Michael bond over their love for Pokémon and other video games. They have grown up together all their lives, and Daniel is excited to include Michael in his wedding party.

Kaityln and Rachel love going out for girls nights and getting a drink (or 5) together, or brunching it up in Kansas City when Rachel is in town.
