Maid of Honor
Karyn is the life of the party, known for her infectious sense of humor and vibrant personality. As Mackenzie’s younger cousin, she’s been a constant source of joy and laughter in her life. Whether it’s cracking a joke, lighting up a room with her energy, or just being the first to dance at any celebration, Karyn has a unique way of making every moment memorable. While technically being her cousin, Karyn has always been more of a little sister to Mackenzie. And though she lives hundreds of miles away in Texas, the bond they share is unbreakable and unfazed by the distance. Mackenzie is beyond grateful to have Karyn by her side as her Maid of Honor on this special day.
Bridesmaid
Mackenzie and Lexi met early in their lives, first meeting in Elementary school in Kyle, Texas. Though it wasn’t until high school when they became inseparable. Having been in National Honor Society and Cheerleading together, and jointly starting a Math Honor Society at their high school, Lexi’s unwavering support became clear. Lexi stuck by Mackenzie through the toughest of times, and made extreme efforts to reach out when Mackenzie was diagnosed with her immune disorder and undergoing treatments. Her loud, funny, and headstrong personality lights up any room, especially when she used to show up at Mackenzie’s parents house anytime she happened to be in town. Mackenzie is beyond grateful to have Lexi as a bridesmaid, but more than that, Lexi is family.
Bridesman
Eli and Mackenzie first crossed paths a few years ago after being introduced to each other by Cole. Both being introverts, Eli and Mackenzie bonded after being “on the sidelines” together at social events. Their friendship quickly grew, having a shared love of trashy reality TV game shows and Stardew Valley. Eli is married to Cole’s best man, Nick, so the friendship only grew more due to the forced proximity. He is a true friend, someone she can always count on for laughs and good company. Mackenzie feels beyond lucky to have him by her side on this special day as her only Bridesman.
Bridesmaid
Bree and Mackenzie first met in high school when Bree sat behind Mackenzie in Mrs. Hart’s American history class. Their friendship began after Bree made a sassy comment about something a classmate said. What started off as a shared frustration over an annoying classmate quickly grew to the greatest friendship Mackenzie has ever known. Since then, Bree has been by Mackenzie’s side through thick and thin, and made countless memories together- whether it was camping in an RV, getting black out drunk on a cruise in Mexico, or sitting on the floor of the school hallway eating lunch, laughing until they cried. Even though she now lives in Florida and we’re separated by hundreds of miles, our bond remains unshakable. Though they don’t talk everyday, Bree is Mackenzie’s best friend, and distance cannot change the love and connection they share. Mackenzie is beyond excited to have Bree by her side.
Bridesmaid
Wendy is one of the kindest, sweetest, and most steadfast people Mackenzie knows. They first connected through Mackenzie’s old boss at the courthouse. And once Mackenzie became a supervisor, through little convincing, she managed to get Wendy to go work directly under her in Accounting. From there they became an inseparable duo, facing incredible challenges of dealing with rude customers, receiving death threats from felons, dealing with frustrating coworkers, and going through many high-stress situations together. Those struggles only strengthened their bond and turned Wendy into a true rock for Mackenzie during tough times. Outside of work, they discovered they share a mutual love of books (especially ACOTAR, which Wendy convinced her to read), nail art, and Bridgerton, making their friendship even richer. Mackenzie is so grateful to have Wendy by her side on her wedding day- she’s more than just a bridesmaid, she’s a true friend.
Bridesmaid
Hannah and Mackenzie first met a few years ago through a friendship with Hannah’s husband, who also worked at the courthouse as a supervisor like Mackenzie did. From the moment they first met at a Mexican restaurant, they bonded over their shared love of Margaritas, as well as their shared dislike of Mackenzie’s former workplace. With her loud laugh, infectious energy, and always-ready-for-a-good-time attitude, Hannah brings the joy and fun wherever she goes. These qualities quickly turned their friendship into a great one, surpassing the friendship Mackenzie had with her husband (sorry CJ!). Hannah is the kind of friend who can turn any day into an adventure (and would honestly take an adventure to jail for Mackenzie if somebody even looked at her wrong). Mackenzie is of course beyond happy and grateful that Hannah will be by her side on her wedding day.
Bridesmaid
Rylee and Mackenzie first met while working at the courthouse. It didn’t take long for her to become one of Mackenzie’s favorite people. She’s the perfect mix of quiet and energetic, always bringing a calm presence with just the right amount of mischief. Rylee is incredibly thoughtful, kind, and has a hilarious sense of humor. Whether it’s a chill night in, or a spontaneous adventure, Rylee is always down for a good time. Mackenzie feels very lucky to have Rylee by her side!
Best Man
Nick and Cole originally met in Kindergarten at Belmont Elementary where they shared a portable classroom. Even though they were friendly during their childhood years, it wasn’t until 7th grade that they really became good friends. After countless game nights in Cole’s basement they became best friends and who have talked everyday for the last 15 years. After high school, Nick and Cole went on to be roommates in college. And while being maybe not the best students, they remained the best of friends, dorming together, and working at a grilled cheese shop together! After college, Nick and Cole remained roommates in an apartment for the next four years. They even adopted a kitten together that they still cherish, who now lives with Mackenzie and Cole, “BB/Baby/Baby Kitty/Miss Kitty/Orange”. Cole got to stand by Nick’s side at his wedding, and Cole is extremely excited to now have Nick by his side instead!

Cole and Harrison met in 7th grade and quickly bonded over a shared love of classic rock, video games, and staying up entirely too late. Throughout the years, they’ve had the fortune of calling each other band mates, roommates, best friends, and even Harrison’s best man at this wedding! Now that Cole is getting married, Harrison is thrilled to finally get the chance to return the favor as a member of the wedding party. Harrison is loyal, funny, and the best dad to the cutest infant. Cole considers himself very lucky to have Harrison by his side on his wedding day.

As the groom’s little sister, Leslie has been by his side through every stage of life- from childhood adventures (mainly of eating chocolate chip pancakes everyday), to late night advice sessions. Cole has watched her grow into the incredibly strong and independent woman she is today. Her loyalty, humor, and unwavering support make her an irreplaceable part of the wedding party. Having her stand by his side on such an important day is a beautiful reminder of the bond that they have and the love and support that’s always been the heart of their family.
