Maid of Honor
Lauren and Cassie have been best friends since 2010. They've been through many ups and downs in life (including Lauren almost dying). Like the show Grey's Anatomy, they refer to each other as their "person" like Meredith and Christina. Vacations, concerts, and food are the trinity of this friendship. Cassie and Lauren even have matching Jeeps (that's taking friendship to the next level).
Best Man
Bruce is Tanner's dad. He is an avid hunter, fisherman, and pool player. He loves to have a good time and has a great laid back attitude. Tanner must have gotten this from him.
Maid of Honor
Carlee and Cassie became friends in college. Cassie walked up to Carlee while she was palpating a cow and asked if she wanted to be friends...and the rest is history. There is never a dull moment when the two of them are together. Their favorite thing to do is laugh until they have no voice.
Groomsman

Groomsman
Uncle Jason is a big character (in stature and personality). He seems to hardly ever be in a bad mood and loves Cassie sometimes more than he loves Tanner. Jason and Cassie share the same birthday so we guess only the best people are born on August 21st.

When she's not working at the hospital, she enjoys traveling with her friends, hanging out with her dog Little, and being "Nana" to her grandbabies.
Father of the Bride
