Maddy

Maid of Honor

Maddy is my oldest best friend and someone I could never do life without. She is my go-to person for so many things, my pumpkin spice and book store companion, the one I will gladly stay up late to talk to when she's overseas, who always thinks of me and brings home little surprises from her travels, the one person who has been with me through countless unforgettable experiences and someone I didn't even have to think twice about being my maid of honor. I am forever thankful for her and so happy to have her by my side.

Alex

Best Man

Alex was my first best friend. We have grown up together since the very start of our lives. We have done everything together: PeeWee soccer, fishing at grandma and grandpa’s, playing basketball, and rooming with each other in college. One of my favorite memories is when I finally taught Alex how to swim last year; I’m so proud of him. Alex brings the most fun and humor to the group. When you need someone to pick you up and make you laugh, look to Alex. I couldn’t be more excited to have him as my best man.

Cailin

Bridesmaid

Cailin is my soon to be sister-in-law and I am incredibly thankful to be gaining a sister like her. She is very smart and hard-working, and I admire her passion for helping the deaf community. She inspires me to be stronger and more dedicated to my own endeavors in life. I love that we can connect over so many things and I am so happy to have her by my side.

Ryan

Best Man

I am honored to have my brother Ryan supporting me on my wedding day. Ryan and I can talk to each other about anything for hours. He is someone I know I can count on for sound advice, and I know I am the same for him. For example, I remember a long time ago Ryan was trying to decide what football team to root for. At the time he was interested in the Jaguars. However, I had been a Titans fan long before Ryan was interested in football. After a long talk, I had convinced Ryan to become a Titans fan. I am excited to have him as my best man

Paishynce

Bridesmaid

Paishynce was one of my closest friends from college. She has the sweetest and most genuine personality. The one thing I love the most about her is how bold she is for Jesus. She always brings a biblical perspective to every situation and inspires me to do the same. Her friendship means so much to me and I am so happy to have her by my side.

Brayden

Groomsman

My cousin Brayden and I have always been very close. We both share the same heart for ministry and have been traveling together, working the same conferences with my uncle for years. We have had countless deep conversations, and he is someone I know I can always count on. Fun fact: We've all recently gotten into baseball, and Brayden was a Yankees fan until I brought him to the Mets. I’m honored to have led him in the right direction and to have him standing next to me.

Sarah

Bridesmaid

Sarah is my soon to be sister-in-law and I am so excited to be gaining her as well. I first met Sarah at her wedding a couple years ago, and I’m so happy that now she’s in mine. She has the biggest heart for others and brings so much joy into the world. She always encourages me to have fun and enjoy life. I am so excited to have her by my side on my special day.

Andrew

Groomsman

My cousin Andrew and I have always been super close. Andrew also roomed with us at college. Growing up, we spent almost every summer together. Today, we both enjoy traveling and have been all over the country. Andrew has always been someone I can count on, and he’s been very supportive of my goals. Andrew and I both enjoy golf. Recently, I had the pleasure of witnessing Andrew get his first double par. I shot an 18 that day.

Libby

Bridesmaid

Libby was my first friend from college and words can't describe how thankful I am to have met her. Today she is one of my closest friends. She has helped me to become more confident in myself, giving me so many tips on cooking, staying healthy, and how to just be myself. I love how adventurous she is and how she never backs down from a challenge. Libby has inspired me in so many ways and I am so excited to have her by my side.

JR

Groomsman

My cousin JR is one of the most loyal men I know. He supports his family no matter what, and that has always been something I admire about him. We enjoy listening and sharing music with each other as well as playing golf. Fun fact: JR is an amazing chef. I remember teaching him how to cook. I couldn’t be more honored to have him stand next to me.

Megan

Bridesmaid

Megan is my soon to be cousin and I am so happy to have her in my life. There’s never a moment I’m not laughing when she’s around. She always makes me feel included and cared for, and I know I can rely on her for anything. She inspires me to see the fun and humor in every situation. I am super excited to share this amazing day with her.

Jake

Groomsman

Jake and I first met in middle school. At the time, he had no clue what fishing was, and I had been fishing for all my life. He asked me to teach him, so I took him under my wing and taught him everything I knew. Over the years, we have spent countless hours camping, fishing, playing basketball and going to the gym. I can confidently say that Jake has not only become a great fisherman, but he has also become part of the family. I’m honored to have him stand with me on my wedding day.
