Wedding Party
Alyssa Stucky
Maid of Honor
Liz and I first met back in college when she was roommates with one of my sorority sisters. I quickly became the unofficial third "roomie", and even though Liz never pledged, she just as quickly became our “unofficial/official sister.” We bonded over our love for the Packers, cheering through games together, and taking snow trips up to the mountains to snowboard. My mom adored her from the moment they met and basically adopted her as one of her own. Over the years, Liz went from being a friend to truly being family. She stood by my side as a bridesmaid in 2020, is the godmother to my youngest daughter, Sophie, and continues to be one of my best friends to this day. I love her dearly, and I couldn’t be more excited that she’s found such a wonderful man in Taylor. Now, I’m honored to stand beside her on her special day, and I can’t wait to celebrate her happily ever after!

I first met Taylor in 2010 on the freshman football team. We later became good friends during our senior year of high school before deciding to be roommates in college. We’ve been best friends ever since and I can’t wait to stand by his side for his special day. I can speak for all of the groomsmen, when I say that we’d all give him the shirt off of our backs, because we know he’d do the same for us without hesitation. We’re all so happy Taylor found the perfect woman to build a family with and can’t wait to celebrate with the newly weds.

I met Liz in college at a party, and it’s honestly one of my favorite stories to tell. She was the life of the party, the kind of person everyone gravitates toward because her energy is just magnetic. I remember laughing with her like we had known each other forever, even though it was the first night we met. Somewhere between the music, the dancing, and our nonstop conversation, we just clicked instantly. From that night on, it was like we were destined to be best friends. We went from strangers to inseparable in the span of a few hours, and to this day, Liz is still the one who brings that same joy, fun, and light into my life.

Taylor and I first met in June of 1996 when my parents brought me home from the hospital. Since then, we’ve been side by side through just about everything from grade school to college, and more than 25 years of sharing the same roof. Through it all, Taylor has been one of the most dependable and steady people in my life, as well as someone I could always count on and look up to. Being able to stand with him on this day is an honor, and I couldn’t be happier to celebrate the start of this new chapter for both him and Liz. Much love to the big guy and the happy couple.

I met Liz a few years ago, and I’m so thankful she came into our lives at the perfect time. She’s been a great addition to the family, and I’m beyond excited to celebrate her and Taylor’s wedding day with everyone who’s been part of their journey. Here’s to gaining a new sister in law!

As Taylor’s younger brother, I’ve known him my whole life, and I’m lucky to have had such a great brother to grow up with. We’ve got so many great memories together, and it’s awesome to see him and Liz starting their own chapter. Watching them tie the knot with all the people who’ve been part of their story is going to be every thing they deserve.

I met Taylor my freshman year of college, and from day one he was the kind of guy you wanted in your corner. We were in the same fraternity, and he quickly became that friend who would back you up whether you were completely right… or confidently wrong. If there was a last-minute road trip to the mountains, a spontaneous night at the casino, or an excuse to fire up the grill, Taylor was already on board — usually perfecting what are, without question, the best chicken wings any of us have ever had. Over the years, and especially after meeting his incredible spouse, I’ve watched him trade in some of the wilder nights for something even better. He’s still the same loyal, outgoing guy — just a little more mellow and a lot more grounded. I couldn’t be happier for the two of them and can’t wait to see all the adventures ahead — hopefully with Taylor still manning the grill.

“Liz and I have been friends for 23 years! We met back in high school and although we were a little opposite (she was a dancer and I played softball) we had an instant connection! She’s the yin to my yang and I couldn’t do life without her. High school, college out of state, and then moving to Louisiana never halted our friendship - and now she’s in LA with me and I couldn’t be happier! My kids absolutely adore their Auntie Liz and we love our little Carter man (…and Taylor too lol). Liz stood by me on my wedding day and I am more than honored to stand by her as she marries the love of her life! “

I first met Taylor in the fall of 2006, shortly after Hurricane Katrina. Following the hurricane, the Trascher family moved into my neighborhood, where we all crossed paths and instantly became friends. Taylor and I became especially close during our high school powerlifting days, bonding over tough workouts and powerlifting meets. This bond lasted into college, where Taylor was the biggest influence on my decision to attend UL. During our college years, we lived together for several years and were both members of the same fraternity. Since then, we’ve remained close, still talking regularly and visiting whenever possible.

Liz and I met through a mutual friend back in 2014 and we instantly became inseparable. From country concerts and nights out to cruising around in her big truck blasting Luke Bryan, we’ve made so many unforgettable memories. Even with moves to Louisiana and Puerto Rico, we’ve always stayed close and will remain forever each other’s partner in crime. I can’t wait to stand by her side on her actual big day!!

Taylor and I go all the way back to fourth grade, when he and his brothers showed up as the new kids. Being the great guy that I am, I decided to welcome them in and it was a great decision that resulted in a life long friendship. Throughout middle and high school we grew a lot tighter, especially when I joined him at UL. Following the next years during my last 2 semesters of college, while he was already beginning his career, Taylor graciously offered me a room in his house, knowing I was a mess trying to knock out my remaining courses. That year living together only brought us closer and solidified what I already knew, if I ever needed anything, he would be one of the first people I’d call without hesitation, knowing he’d be happy to help in any aspect he could. I’m confident others would agree. I feel incredibly blessed to stand by him on his and Liz’s day, and even more blessed to call him one of my closest friends.

I first met Taylor about 20 years ago after becoming friends with his younger brother. We all lived nearby and grew up together hanging out nearly everyday doing some sort of outdoors activity. He basically became an older brother I never had. I am honored to be apart of Liz and Taylor’s special day and look forward to watching them grow together!

Taylor and I met back in 2014 at my now brother in laws college apartment for a party. Crazy how time flies. We all lived at the quarters apartments but I met him through my girlfriend at the time(now wife) who is also from Slidell. Taylor is one of those guys you can always count on to be there if you need him. Now all these years later we each have a one year old and they are only 2 months apart and we are getting to experience a new chapter together. Cheers to a long happy marriage Taylor and Liz!

Taylor and I met back in the spring of 2016 when we were both rushing for Kappa Sig. The days and weeks to follow would solidify the brotherhood we were building! Who knew that we would become undeniably lifelong friends? Years passed with so many memories in between. I then moved back to New Orleans, and from then on, we kept in touch — updating each other on our life goals and milestones reached. None of which involved marriage or having babies, until Taylor met Liz and I met Shelby. Suddenly, our talks about life changed. Look at us now T building our families. I couldn’t ask for a better friend to vent to, give advice, as well as receive advice from. He’s always been there for me, as I am for him, and I can’t wait for more life, more memories, and more growth.
