Groom
Cooper is my co-star for the evening! He enjoys fruits & veggies, being told what to do, and losing competitions. JK - please avoid all of that or he might not sign the marriage license. In truth, he loves football, baseball, basketball, golf...okay, most sports, chicken tenders, and Legos. Ask him how much he loves Mesa.
Bride
Hi there - it's me! I love...my people. Truly. I know it's the cheesiest sentiment, but each person listed below has served such a profound role in my life and I am beyond excited to enter this next chapter with them beside me. In fact, I couldn't picture it another way. Thank you wedding party, thank you family, and thank you guests!! Ask me how much I love Cooper.
Best Man
Jason is the father and best friend of Cooper. He has not only raised Cooper through his childhood years, but served as a guiding light and spiritual leader in Cooper's adult life. Cooper values his discernment, self-control, and humility, and strives to emulate him in everything. Ask him about anything!
Matron of Honor
Sierra is the sister and best friend of Mesa. She has stuck by the bride through it all and done it with the brightest smile. As a new mother, she finds the most joy in small, sweet moment with her young one! Ask her about Kohen or her three dogs.
Groomsman
Brock is a college friend and teammate of Cooper. He enjoys working out, baseball, and long walks on the Florida beaches. Ask him about his crazy surgery stories.
Maid of Honor
Chloe is the sister of Cooper and newfound sister of Mesa. Although quiet, she loves those around her intentionally and with great joy. She enjoys curling up with a good book just as much as pitching softball! Ask her about Taylor Swift.
Groomsman
Jacob is a high-school friend and teammate of Cooper. He enjoys Fantasy Football, frisbee golf, Pokemon, and Super Smash Bros. Ask him about his new baby girl, Ellie.
Man of Honor
David is the "matchmaker" between Cooper and Mesa. He was the college roommate of Cooper, but high school best friend of Mesa, so she called dibs. Cooper even had to get David's blessing to ask Mesa to be his girlfriend. Ask him about baseball.
Officiant
Alex is husband to Sierra, brother-in-law to Mesa, and father to Kohen. Alex was decidedly the most qualified person to lead us in to marriage before God, whether he believes so or not. As a spiritual leader in his church and family, we were honored to ask him to be our officiant (although Cooper fought to have him as a groomsman) and ever grateful that he accepted. Ask him about technology.
Flower Child
Asher is the pride and joy of Cooper and Mesa who has grown into quite the young man. He can sit, heel, shake, touch, and even hug. He loves playing fetch, sunbathing by the window, and endless belly rubs. Ask him "where's your toy?"
