Wedding Party

James Thibodeaux

Best Man

James and Blake go all the way back to high school band where they played trumpet together, but the two truly became brothers at Texas A&M where they were roommates. In college James invited Blake to join his church group, led Blake to rededicate his life to Christ, and even wound up baptizing him a year later. Though life has separated them geographically, they still keep in touch and see one another often. James heard about Erin before Blake had even asked her on a date, and got the chance to meet her during a road trip to New Orleans the week before Blake proposed. The wedding day just wouldn’t be complete without James at Blake’s side as he says “I do.”

Paul Casey

Groomsman

Blake’s dad has always had his back. Whether it be building Pine Wood Derby cars, helping with homework, coaching a sports team, or helping construct an Eagle Scout project - Paul has always gone to great lengths to help Blake succeed in life. Blake’s parents both heard about Erin early on in their relationship, and first met her during a family crisis when Blake’s grandmother, Marnie, suffered a stroke. Since then Blake’s mom and dad have gotten to know Erin quite well, despite the COVID quarantine. Blake couldn’t think of a more fitting man to stand by his side on the wedding day.

Thomas Moody

Groomsman

Thomas and Blake first met after James introduced them at a Texas A&M career fair. Little did Blake know at the time that he would move to Fort Worth and join Thomas’ church years later after moving to medical school! Throughout Blake’s time in Fort Worth, Thomas and his wife Kourtney served as mentors to him in the faith and taught him so much about the Christian walk. Thomas first met Erin on a double date that he and Blake arranged in San Antonio on the river walk. Since then he and his wife have continued to encourage and support Blake and Erin on their path towards marriage. The wedding day wouldn’t be the same without Thomas there at their side!

Stewart Foley

Groomsman

Stewart is Erin’s oldest brother and has been looking out for her since they were little kids. Even through sibling rivalries and dramatic teenage years, they have always had each other’s backs no matter what. Stewart is a trusted confidante, friend, and brother to everyone who knows him. He’s a great big brother and is excited to finally have another guy joining the family. We couldn’t imagine our wedding day without him by our sides.

Lauren Foley

Maid of Honor

Lauren is Erin's baby sister aka Baby Seester. She's talented, passionate, caring, and has been supportive of Erin throughout all of her life. Even through sibling fights and rivalries, Lauren has always stood by Erin's side and it only makes sense for her to stand by her side as she marries Blake. As far as siblings go, Lauren is the best and can't wait to gain another brother in Blake.

Libby Carpenter

Matron of Honor

Erin and Libby met their freshman year at Baylor when they were placed in the same community group at church. Whether it be adventures across the pond or just going for walks and talking, Libby has been a huge influence in Erin's life for the past four years. They've traveled together, prayed together, cried together, and laughed together and now Libby gets to stand by Erin's side as she marries the man of her dreams.

Maranda Farrell

Bridesmaid

Maranda and Erin met through their college ministry and bonded over their experience working in retail, their introverted-ness, and their love of home goods. Maranda is the biggest and best encourager you will ever meet and truly has the biggest servant's heart. She's a friend at all times, a shoulder to cry on, and the person to go to when you need someone to tell it how it is. She was the first text when Blake called to ask Erin on their first date and has been there cheering them on from the start. Their wedding day wouldn't be complete without Maranda standing there with cheering them on as they say "I do."

Loria Rose

Bridesmaid

Ever since Loria and Erin met through their college ministry they have been there for each other. The Leslie to Erin's Ann, Loria is witty, talented, compassionate, and a true friend at all times. She has encouraged, prayed for, and championed Erin in every aspect of her life. She's been one of Erin and Blake's biggest fans from the beginning and they couldn't imagine getting married without her there.
