Alyssa & Branson
Wedding Party
Alyssa Irmeger
Bride
Born in Venezuela, raised in Elizabethton, and now residing in Johnson City, TN - meet the bride Alyssa! As most people know, she loves horses and if she had her way, Miss P would make some sort of entrance at the wedding! Alyssa is also a graduate of ETSU & is helping manage the People’s Street Chick-fil-A at the moment. She is always on the go, generally has a cup of iced coffee in her hands, always tries to have a plan, and is always pretty good at getting perspective when things don’t go as planned. A Harry Potter fanatic, Alyssa and Branson frequently visit Universal in Orlando and even carry season passes. Things are always moving for these two and they can’t wait to be married and get the party started!
Branson Daugherty
Groom
The handsome groom was born and raised in Elizabethton and is graduating from ETSU in December! Though Branson and Alyssa met at Chick-fil-A, he has since moved on to learn about the family produce business. Branson is an avid reader and learner, a Tolkien fanatic, a Harry Potter enthusiast, and an all-around great guy. Branson and Alyssa have many similar interests, as well as many differing qualities that end up molding together perfectly! These two are looking forward to lots of exciting adventures, maybe a trip to New Zealand, and an endless future together.
Abigail Carey
Maid of Honor
Alyssa and Abbi met in pre-school many years ago. The two have shared a love for horses, singing, Lord of the Rings, Harry Potter, and coffee, just to name a few things. Nothing ever comes between these two close friends!
Jeff Daugherty
Best Man
Branson has been working alongside his father for the last few years, learning about managing the family business and spending lots of hours running the place together. Branson looks forward to having the man who raised him stand by his side on this big day.
Tory Irmeger
Bridesmaid
Sister of the bride and travel extraordinaire - meet Tory Irmeger! Alyssa and Tory are close and stay connected even when Tory is off wandering around Europe and the United Kingdom. Hopefully they will venture there together one day! When Tory isn't wandering around beautiful countries and lands, she attends Lee University and is graduating in May of 2022. Great adventures hopefully await Alyssa and Tory after that!
Steath Daugherty
Groomsman
Branson's and his brother are close in age as well as close to each other. From going to school together to working at the same Chick-fil-A (where they both happened to meet their future brides...), these two guys are both getting married in December! This busy month is exciting for all and we're all happy to celebrate together!
Lydia Irmeger
Bridesmaid
Lydia became part of the family in 2014 when she married Alyssa’s brother, Steven. Being so alike in personality, Lydia and Alyssa became close very quickly and like to frequent the The Coffee Company in Elizabethton, since the staff always knows what we’re about to order! Steven's residency in Ohio is keeping them apart geographically, but nothing keeps this sweet friendship from growing!
Timothy Orton
Groomsman
Timothy and Branson have spent many good times together, whether it's grabbing a burger or ice cream after classes at Northeast or shooting off fire works at the family Fourth of July celebration every year. These cousins sure know how to have a good time.
Becca Blanton
Bridesmaid
Becca and Alyssa met at Chick-fil-A a few years ago and there was an instant connection, regardless of their opposing personalities! Not to mention, Becca and Alyssa lived only a few apartments away! There were many times of walking down the hill that Alyssa would come watch a movie at Becca's, or Becca would walk up the hill to borrow a wine opener from Alyssa! The two of them like to get coffee, talk about the Bachelor, and occasionally go on a cruise together!
Briac Daugherty
Groomsman
Branson stood by his oldest brother, Briac's, side for his wedding and now it's time to return the favor! Briac has influenced lots of Branson’s interests and they always love getting together to reminisce about the good old days.
Whitney Kuykendall
Bridesmaid
Whitney and Alyssa love to try new things and explore their wild side together - they definitely keep each other young and current. Whether it's coffee, a tea room, a Lord of the Rings marathon, or skiing they can always find something fun to do! Whitney and Alyssa went to high school together, but it was really at summer camp in 2010 when they became close. These two have a friendship that gets paused occasionally and then all you have to do is hit ‘play’ and it seems as though no time has passed at all!
Ashland Daugherty
Bridesmaid
Branson's sister is amazing & goes above and beyond to make people happy! Our guests will be enjoying her gorgeous & tasty baking at the wedding in December. And on top of that, she also is going to be one of Alyssa's bridesmaids! Ashland is driven, talented, sweet, and a great future sister-in-law. Alyssa is so thankful for this opportunity to spend with future family!
