Wedding Party

Jamie Walters

Bride

Cory Granner

Groom

Nicole Walters

Maid of Honor

Jamie was living in bliss as an only child for a mere 16 months until Nicole showed up. Her arrival brought matching outfits in different colors (Jamie always in blue/green, Nicole in pink/orange) and a built in best friend. Inseparable from the beginning, Jamie and Nicole loved American Girl Dolls, death Twister, reading, Dance Dance Revolution, regency era romances, and Disney. Although Nicole spent every night and weekend defending a goal from a black and white ball and Jamie spent every waking moment singing as loud as possible (much to Nicole's annoyance) their love for each other is endless. And despite having lived in separate states for over 10 years now, it will always feel like they are 16 and 15 again, having both just gotten hair bangs because they watched "Burlesque" with Christina Aguilera. Mom, why did you let us do that!?

Graham Shaffer

Best Man

Graham and Cory seemed to always be crossing each others paths before finally working together at Greenville Theatre. Realizing that they were both the same person in all aspects of life they soon became very close friends. They can often be found doing trivia at breweries across town, riding bikes on the Swamp Rabbit Trail, or playing PGA on PS5 until the wee hours of the night. Together, just separate checks please.

Copeland Quarles

Bridesman

Jamie and Copeland met during Greenville Theatre's 2018 production of "Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat." Although Copeland was first interested in being Cory's "friend" he soon settled for Jamie and invited her to see Beyoncé in concert. After that they were attached at the hip becoming concert buddies screlting their hearts out at Kelly Clarkson, Celine Dion, and Chappell Roan together. A love of musical theatre, bird dog pizza, and each other has kept them close no matter the distance or time a part.

Brad Cody

Groomsman

Brad and Cory became friends over 20 years ago, meeting in Middle School. Immediately finding a common interest in movies and sports they have been hanging out almost weekly ever since. You can often find them at Yee Haw discussing College Football, NFL, sports in general or quoting Dumb and Dumber religiously for hours on end.

Alecia Schulz

Bridesmaid

Known around the theatre community as @quirkyempath, Alecia and Jamie began meeting at Greenville Theatre and other local performances in the Upstate in 2021. Every time they met and chatted their friendship blossomed more and they finally decided "gosh darnnit" we are friends now! Nothing brings them greater joy than getting together for a voice lesson and instead gossiping for 5 hours, drinking Gin & Tonics at Southernside, exchanging book recommendations, and smashing the patriarchy.

Joel Irvine

Groomsman

Cory and Joel don't know exactly when they met, except that it was a long time ago and they've been hanging out ever since. They've always bonded over live music, golf, football, and Cory making Joels house the place to be on College Football Saturday...until he moved. Always an adventure with Joel, Cory is always up for them...well almost all of them.
