Wedding Party

Taylor

Bride

Branden

Groom

Ashley

Maid of Honor

I met Taylor in High School, we ended up being in a play together and became fast friends. We started hanging out at play practice. After a while, we went from 4 hour play practices every other day to sleepovers and weekend hang outs. Now we are still attached at the hip even with an ocean between us. When we were kids we always told people we were sisters, and honestly with time, it definitely has started to feel that way. I am the Maid of Honor at the wedding. I enjoy Hiking, painting, reading and travelling. My favorite memory with Taylor is going to a murder mystery party together. If you ever need a private eye, Tay and I are available for hire. The very first time we went black friday Shopping as teenagers, and decided it was a good idea to encourage everyone to move a bit faster in the mall. Our chosen word of encouragement? 'Waddle'! Taylor is the most loving person you'll ever meet and she's always been one of my biggest supporters. From meeting me at the airport whenever I'm home to encouraging me to chase my dreams she always chooses to be uplifting and caring. In the future I look forward to exploring more of the world. My biggest bucket list item is to be able to visit every continent. Fun fact about me is I speak German and have a plant obsession

Brooklyn

Bridesmaid

Hello my name is Brooklyn and I am Branden’s little sister. I am the much cooler, funnier sibling between the two of us! I enjoy animals, art, being outdoors, and crafting! I have 3 fur babies! I met Taylor at Branden's house playing board games! Taylor and I became closer as their relationship grew. My favorite memories with Taylor are playing many rounds of Bang, camping, trying to get her cricut to work, and joking with Branden together. I love many things about Taylor. I love that she is so caring, she always wants everyone to be involved and enjoying whatever we are doing. I also love how organized she is. My favorite thing of all is her love for my brother. My brother is one of the people I look up to most and all I want is for him to be happy. I see the love and support that they have for each other and he is the happiest when he is with Taylor or talking about her, and for that I will always be grateful. I look forward to watching them both grow together and as individuals.

Jaclyn

Bridesmaid

Hello! I’m Jaclyn, one of Taylor’s bridesmaids. We met all the way back in the 4th grade, and hilariously, we have no recollection of how we became friends! But regardless, we grew close very quickly and have been besties ever since. Taylor is such a wonderful and kind friend, and I am honored to be a part of her big day. Some of my favorite memories with her are the trips to visit me in Minneapolis, from board games to MOA to MN comic con and more! She never fails to make any time together special. And of course, how could I forget the countless hours spent together at sleepovers, giggling as we tried to make late night snacks as quietly as possible. I look forward to many more shared memories and experiences doing all our favorite things together. Hobbies and interest of mine include board games, cosplay, video games, music, and crafting. I very much enjoy Ren Faires and comic cons as well! Some fun facts about me are: I own a small business making stuffed animals of my favorite characters in fandom that I hope to some day expand into other crafting and cosplay making, and I have a cat named Alpine (a reference to Bucky Barnes’ cat of the same name in Marvel Comics)!

Abbey

Bridesmaid

Hello there! My name is Abbey Goforth and I am one of Taylor’s bridesmaids. A little about me: I love writing, reading and my two adorable cats Punkin and Strahd. I cosplay and go to Renaissance Faires in my free time. In the future I hope to be able to live life to the fullest with all of the people that I love. One of those people being my beautiful and amazing friend Taylor. Taylor and I met back in seventh grade Tiger Time where we were (almost) victorious in a cutthroat Buggy Up Buggy Down competition. Bonded by our mutual bloodlust and desire to win we went on to be close friends and remain as such to this day. Taylor and I have shared many treasured moments and adventures over the years; from our childhood days of fighting invisible zombies on the playground, collecting Neopet cards, and playing Scarecrow in the pool to our adult days where we road trip to Minnesota, play board games and eat as much sushi as we can stomach. Taylor has always been one of my best friends; her kind heart, her enthusiasm for trying new things and her determination to always be there for the people that she loves are just a few of the things that I love about her. I am honored to be a part of this momentous occasion and can’t wait to celebrate Taylor and Branden!
