Sarah & Justin
Wedding Party
Kayla Ketter Mora
Maid of Honor
Sarah's parents met Kayla back in 2009 on a missions trip to Kenya. They invited her to come visit South Louisiana and what started out as a 6-week visit turned into 2 years as a bunkmate and sister. Sarah had the honor of being Kayla's maid of honor back in 2013, so it's only fair that she returned the favor!
Mitch Guillory
Best Man & Father of Groom
There's no one else Justin could have imagined standing beside him at the altar (other than Sarah, of course). Through the years of mentorship and, even more importantly, friendship, this father/son duo have become closer and closer. Since Mitch had his Father as his best man, it was a no-brainer for Justin to choose his father as well.
Hana Johnson
Bridesmaid
Hana and Sarah met in 2018 during sorority recruitment and were almost immediately inseparable. During their first semester as virtual students, Hana would FaceTime Sarah and keep her entertained while she slaved over Greek translations. Even when Hana transferred to a college back home, the bond of their friendship was unbreakable.
Cannon Shirah
Groomsman
In 2013, Justin caught a glimpse of Cannon's truck in the high school parking lot. At that moment, he knew he had found his new best friend. Ever since then, the two have been thick as thieves. Over the years (and geographical distance), they have always been each other's biggest supporters and confidants.
Quiava Lampley Berggren
Bridesmaid
Sarah met Quiava for the first time on Bid Day 2018 - although she had seen her earlier in the semester at a silent disco hosted by the Student Body Association and immediately wondered "Who is this madwoman?" Through the ups and downs of college life, Quiava remained a steady and consistent friend. Although Sarah may never forgive her for graduating a year early, she still loves Quiava dearly.
Evan Hood
Groomsman
Evan and Justin have been best friends since their births in 1997. All the way from Pre-K2 to the present day, they have been by each other's side through thick and thin. They're not only best friends, but family. Justin and Evan could not imagine this special day without each other.
Makenzie Toxey
Bridesmaid
Sarah considers Makenzie the little sister she never had. Though they were sorority sisters, Sarah and Makenzie didn't really get close until after they were both virtual students in 2020. After several nights of venting about recruitment frustrations with a group of friends, they just clicked. Since then, they've stuck with each other through thick and thin and have had many more late night venting sessions.
Mark Gagliano
Groomsman
Justin and Mark met is 2018 while being a part of the same car club at LSU. After they met they continued on taking classes together until the graduated from LSU in 2020. Over those years they became the closest of friends through cars and video games.
Gabi Dubois
Bridesmaid
Sarah and Gabi met December of 2020 and hit it off immediately. Sarah was glad that Justin had such a close group of friends from high school, and ecstatic when they had girlfriends as amazing as Gabi. They've bonded over their shared interest in psychology and their experiences as presidents in Greek life. Sarah is looking forward to the day that she can send her kids over to play at Aunt Gabi's house.
Paul Hood
Groomsman
Much like his brother, Paul and Justin have been friends since Justin's birth. He has been a great role model and mentor to Justin throughout middle school, high school, college, and now the professional world. Paul could not imagine his special day without Justin, and Justin could not imagine his special day without Paul either.
Aaina Sabharwal
Reader
Aaina and Sarah met in the fall of 2018 through their sorority. While their relationship started off rocky, the two found common ground through a love of STEM and began a wonderful friendship. Sarah can honestly say that Aaina has enriched her life in many ways, and given her the best stories from their college days.
Dayton Shirah
(Honorary) Groomsman
Dayton, better known as "Goat" to friends and family, and Justin met each other through Cannon. Justin's first introduction to Goat was helping lift him into Cannon's truck since he had two broken arms. Needless to say, their friendship quickly bloomed as this became a regular occurrence. In all seriousness, much like his brother, Goat has been one of Justin's best friends and biggest supporters across the years. And though he won't be able to attend the ceremony, Justin knows he'll still be there in spirit.
Cassidy Thrash
Reader
One of the first pictures Sarah took on sorority bid day in 2018 was of Cassidy Thrash. Ever since then, the two have been thick as thieves. Through good times and bad, Cassidy has stuck by Sarah's side. Some of Sarah's favorite college memories were hanging out in Cassidy's dorm and having thought-provoking conversations until late into the night. The stars are always aligned when it comes to this friendship.
Blake Piediscalzo
Flower Child
Although Sarah and Justin decided to have a mostly-adult wedding, they knew the ceremony wouldn't be complete without a flower girl. And they both agreed that only one person could truly do the job justice: Blake Piediscalzo. Justin and Blake have been friends since high school, and they worked together during the summer months cutting grass for 8 years. Blake's expertise in the lawn care business is what makes him exceptionally qualified for his role as flower girl.
Cary Carlin
Officiant & Father of Bride
When Justin and Sarah sat down and thought about who they wanted to marry them, there was no other name in mind. They both knew it had to be Sarah's dad Cary Carlin. Cary has been pivotal to Justin and Sarah's spiritual walks, and there's no beating that sense of humor! There was simply no better person for the job, and both Sarah and Justin look forward to his part in saying "I do" on the big day.
