Brooke & Joshua
Wedding Party
Amber Rose
Maid of Honor
Amber and I began our sisterhood back in the start of college where we both were leading OCF (Otter Christian Fellowship). We weren't friends right away but over transitions in our leadership team, leaving us with just each other to run the show, we found that we had much more in common than just our current leadership standing. We've been through it all together, including Josh and I's relationship (which she has been involved in since the very beginning). I am honored to have her by my side.
Jon Kerrutt
Best Man
Tall, great hair, and a killer personality, Jon is the first dude I thought of to be my best man. He strives to be a good friend. Not just someone passing through my life. Whether we are out exploring the great outdoors, or coming up with projects to potentially lose fingers on, he is there. I am overjoyed and blessed to have him in and at my wedding! I met him through a friend of Brooke's (shout out to Ahalya) and we have been buddies ever since. He pushes me to be my best, humbles me when I am at my highest but stays calm through it all. Here is to Jon Kerrutt! Cheers!
Nicollette
Bridesmaid
Nikki is often referred to as the glue in our family. She reminds each of us to let loose and be our silly selves. In many ways she has helped develop me into the dork who attracted the other dork (a.k.a. Josh). Thanks for being such an influence on us all.
Casey
Groomsman
I have never liked any of the boys interested in my sisters. Emily was the first of my three sisters to start dating. I can safely say, only the presence of family members prevented me from throwing punches at the guys interested in my sister. And then came Casey. Being an older brother, I was not too thrilled to meet this boyfriend who would be staying with us for a couple days. But when I picked him up from the train station the "Hello, sir" threw me off guard. "Aw crap" I thought, "this is the one." Here we are three years later, and he is my brother-in-law. I appreciate Casey for his honesty and loving character towards my family and especially my sister! I am thrilled to have him as a groomsman. Here's to you mate! Cheers!
Maddison
Bridesmaid
Maddie is one tough cookie. One of my favorite memories is how when we were younger, alongside jamming to the Beatles, she would be the girl to put all the bullies in their place. She was a peacekeeper but not afraid to bring someone down to their own size. She often pushes us to be strong and independent. I am so excited to share this moment with her!
Brian Phan
Groomsman
From scuba lessons to conversations over a bowl of pho, Brian has helped build me in ways I will forever be in debt to. Brian continues to pursue friendship in Brooke and I alongside his adventure partner Emilie. Not only is Brian deserving of the title of groomsman, but also a top seat in my list of friends. I hope that, 5, 10, 20 years down the rode, we continue find time to laugh about the good times we shared, amidst the memories we continue to create. Cheers to you, Brian!
