Wedding Party
Hannah Shoaf
Matron of Honor
Erica’s mejor amiga since 2nd grade. Their love for SpongeBob and Patrick is for life; they have tattoos to prove it.
Amy Cone
Maid of Honor
Erica’s gym friend turned into best friend through mutual love of karaoke, fries, and espresso martinis. They also have tattoos to prove it.
Caroline Whitney
Bridesmaid
Hannah’s little cousin, who turned into a dear friend of Erica once she caught up with the rest of us in age/stage of life. Her wedding is “next” after our wedding!
Jeanette Silvia
Bridesmaid
She met Erica through mutual friends in preparation for an EDM concert. Their friendship grew stronger (pun intended) through lifting heavy together at the gym. #blackkettlebells
Kaitlyn Baker
Bridesmaid
Erica’s friend since experiencing college life together at Appalachian State. Thank goodness they’ve grown out of their taste for Burnette’s vodka.
Rachel Holland Sanders
Bridesmaid
Erica’s first best friend in NC. Their moms were best friends first, but they have built their own memories and traveled near and far with too many inside jokes and sayings to count!
Emma Shirley
Bridesmaid
Erica’s go-to lab partner in Physical Therapy school. Their passion for fitness has creeped into their post-grad lives as they are both going through their "millennial crisis" running half marathons together and planning to run a full marathon within the next year! She is the short one.
Desiré Rodón
Junior Bridesmaid
Erica’s oldest first cousin. Erica taught her how to play the game MASH when they were younger. Now she gets to watch Erica’s future unfold in real life as she marries Branden.
Mia Perez
Junior Bridesmaid
One of Erica’s cousins. She is the cousin whose parents left Miami and inherited a zoo in Maine. She’s pretty cool.
Stella Perez
Flower Girl
Mia’s little sister/Erica’s youngest first cousin. No one else can pull off being a flower girl quite like Stella. The groom refers to her as the bride’s “mini-me,” but packed with flower-girl flare.
Jared Worden
Groomsman
This bro I met on our middle school bus. We went to different high schools, but it didn't stop us from continuing our friendship in person even though we played a lot of Halo 2 on Xbox LIVE. This bro has the best luck out of anyone else in the group.
Michael McKesson
Groomsman
This bro I met on the middle school bus while being a grade above me. This bro is now considered the father of the group and master mechanic for everyone’s go-to problems. He was the first to produce an amazing family. I helped name 2 out of 3 of his children.
Kyle Blessman
Groomsman
This bro I met while attending high school football games at a school I didn't even attend. I got to experience a Wolfpack tailgate with this bro and it will be a forever memory. This bro has welcomed me into his home and family over the years and I am truly grateful.
Tyler Sheffield
Groomsman
This bro I met while attending high school football games at a school I didn't even attend. This bro invited me to my first Georgia Bulldogs football game. It was a classic bro trip in Athens that I will never forget.
Omaye Berhe
Groomsman
This bro I met at a high school football game again at a high school I didn't attend. This bro was wearing a long trench coat that was very similar to the one the Killswitch Engage lead vocalist wore for a promo shoot. I shared my thoughts and laughter, and years later the friendship is still going strong. This bro let me stay in his house for nearly half a summer. His mom asked if I was going to start paying rent since I had my own room. All I had to do was text my mom to let her know I was still alive.
Zack Jackan
Groomsman
This bro I met while attending high school football games at a school I didn't attend. He invited me to his childhood home many times growing up. His parents would host some of the best gatherings i.e. Halloween which was one of many countless memories I could never forget at the Jackan household.
Tyler Bridgewater
Groomsman
This bro is the only person I know that could sleep with an industrial fan in his room pointed at his face on full blast and not get sick. This bro has invited me to his house for plenty of football parties usually hosted by The Bridgewaters (Scott and Jana). I will always be grateful for the welcoming door on Chestnut Lake Dr.
Spencer Bridgewater
Groomsman
This bro I met while attending high school football games at the school I didn't attend. This is the room I would stay in while Tyler Bridgewater had his fan on full blast. Our friendship has grown into a bro-ship. This bro still owes me money from Madden.
