Brian & Jessica
Wedding Party
Katie Brown & Dannah Moore
Maids of Honor
Besties of the bride! It is only fitting that all three were often mistaken for sisters the year they lived in Athens, Greece. Both are big encouragers to Jess and two of her absolute favorites to travel with! Katie is a sweet and sassy adventurer who, after living in Greece then working on a schooner, now calls the Alaskan Bush home. Dannah is a sweet and sassy creative who simply bursts with enthusiasm for whatever she sets her mind to.
Justin Coppedge
Best Man
Brother and great friend to the groom. Steady support, encouragement and role model for Brian throughout his life and especially in adulthood...and most importantly, he fathered Brian's niece, Elli.
Rachel Vaught
Bridesmaid
Best friend of the bride since the 2nd grade! Rachel has been a steady friend and support to Jess through all of life's ups and downs. She is an artist through and through, and has brought great beauty to Jess' life the past 20 years.
Luke Brohmer
Groomsman
Best friend, adventure buddy and confidant of the groom. Steady, sincere and always challenging Brian to be a better man...and most importantly, crazy enough ride piggyback on Brian's unicycle.
Lauren Gamel
Bridesmaid
Best friend of the bride since the 8th grade! Lauren has brought so much fun and sass to Jess' life ever since they bonded in a middle school practical living class. Jess loves having Lauren in this sweet season as they have been dreaming and planning about the "big day" for the past 13 years.
Kyle Combest
Groomsman
Bestie, roommate and partner in ministry of the groom. Kyle is adventurous, fun, generous and a huge life-giver to Brian...and most importantly he had a boat in college so we could hit the lake!
Grace Waugh
Bridesmaid
College bestie of the bride. Grace has been a friend, encourager, and confidant since their freshman year at Belmont! Jess is thankful for how Grace remains as such a sweet friend to this day.
Jake Selley
Groomsman
Sports teammate, college roommate and all around best mate to the groom for over 20 years. Passionate, hardworking, faithful...and most importantly, Brian's excuse to visit Australia.
Clayton Varner
Brother of the Bride
Older brother of the bride, Jess is so thankful she has Clayton to walk her down the aisle as their dad passed away seven years ago. Clayton is not only her smart brother she looks up to, but her fun friend as well.
Ryan Taylor
Groomsman
Exactly the friend and brother in Christ Brian has needed the last four years. Creative, funny and someone you can always count on...and most importantly, maker of delicious cinnamon roles.
Courtney Varner
Wedding Hostess
Sweet and sassy sister (in-law) of the bride! Courtney brings so much encouragement, laughter, and fun to Jess' life. She is a blast to travel with and is such an easygoing sister and friend.
Lauren Coppedge
Wedding Hostess
Truly the sister Brian never had! Fun, sarcastic and sweet all at the right times plus a great listening ear and wonderful friend to the groom...and most importantly, gave birth to Brian's niece, Elli.
Hannah Varner
Flower Girl
Hannah is the anchor and team captain of our flower girl trio. At three and a half years old, we're confident she'll make it down the aisle and hopefully even drop a few petals along the way!
Elli Lou Coppedge
Flower Girl
Elli is our wildflower...at a little over two years old, there's no telling what she's gonna do when it's time to walk down the aisle! When it's time to dance though...
Clara Varner
Flower Girl
Clara is our honorary flower girl. At 18 months, her responsibilities include looking cute (piece of cake) and not screaming (harder than you might think).
