Carissa & Jake
Wedding Party
Delaney Worrell
Maid of Honor
Delaney and Carissa have been best friends since middle school! They have been through thick and thin, and have been like sisters to each other for over a decade. They also have been planning Carissa's dream wedding since before Jake and Carissa ever met. Now it all gets to fall into place!
Candace Jay
Bridesmaid
This lovely lady! Carissa and Candy have been close with this incredible woman for over 7 years now. Candace, Jake, and Carissa all met at the pool, and we are blessed to have her as a friend and as a part of our wedding!
Breann Blackman
Bridesmaid
We met her seven years ago at the pool, and we've been buds ever since! Never have you met such a tender soul with a capacity for love. So many good memories with this gem and many more to come!
Jenna Fisher
Bridesmaid
Oh sister Fish...we knew we had a chance because Jenna didn't try to get rid of Carissa right away! Jenna and Carissa couldn't be more different, but that's how sisters work....right?! We love you, sis!
Mariah McCoy
Bridesmaid
This woman got Carissa through college! They are too much alike, and still lean on each other even though she's being crazy and going to grad-school in Canada! She's willing to travel internationally to be a part of our special day, and we couldn't be happier!
Nathan Vaughn
Bridesman
Yes....Carissa has a brides-dude. What did you expect?! Nate and Carissa have been thick as thieves since they met their freshman year of college. We both love this boy to pieces, and we're honored to have this cooky, theater kid as a friend!
Lukas Volman
Best Man
Jake met Lukas in Kindergarden. His mom has a picture of him at every single one of his birthday parties since! Their friendship was formed on the basis of football, trampoline wrestling, and playing video games they weren't supposed to be playing. No wonder they are best friends.
Frank Medaris
Groomsman
Jake and Frank met in high school and they didn't like each other at all. Obviously, things have changed. They have an eerily similar sense of humor and have been there for each other through some incredibly rough patches. Plus he's the best bowler we know. Love this guy!
Kevin Utu
Groomsman
Kevin, Jake, and Lukas lived down the street from each other for years. They bonded over their shared quiet sarcasm, and he's one of the nicest guys you'll ever meet. He kept the rest of the entourage in line during high school, which is good because those boys needed supervising! Love you, man.
Ryan Ferguson
Groomsman
Jake shamelessly admits to Fergie being the first friend he stole from Jenna - yes, she is still bitter. Ferg is one of those guys that would do anything for you. He and Jake survived high school and being roommates with his nutty older brother. Wouldn't dare embark upon this adventure without Ferg.
Jake Farnsworth
Groomsman
This "other Jake" has been a part of both of our lives for years! He drove us nuts at first! But man...working five days a week with a guy who cares as much as you do in 102 degree heat, covered in chlorine can really bring people together. Really though, this guy is the nerdiest, quirkiest, most lovable soul out there. Can't imagine tying the knot without him.
Stephanie Kettle
Groomswoman
Jake met this lady in high school...on a blind date. Needless to say, that didn't work out. But he's so glad someone tried to set them up because he got one of his closest friends out of it, and you couldn't trade that friendship for the world!
Asher Short
Ring Bearer
Asher is the oldest of the boys Carissa got to nanny in Salt Lake throughout college. This little man has the most curious and inventive imagination out there and is such a good big brother! We are so excited for him to be a part of our special day!
Corbin Short
Ring Bearer
Corbin decided Carissa and him were going to be best friends from the age of three...he's almost five now! He's such a lovey boy, and he never ceases to make everyone in the room smile. Love you, Corbs!
Kellen Short
Ring Bearer
Baby Kellen! I mean, he's hardly a baby anymore, but Carissa has known this little man since before he was born. He's not carrying a ring - c'mon...he'd totally run away with it - but why have two Short boys when you could have three?! The more cuteness, the better!
Serenity Kettle
Flower Girl
Oh how we love little miss Serenity! She is DEFINITELY her mother's daughter - one of a kind, quirky, and an absolute riot! Couldn't imagine having anyone else be our flower girl! Love you, Little Miss!
