Matron of Honor
Taylor Adams is my older sister and one of my favorite people. Growing up, we spent plenty of time fighting over clothes—mostly because I kept stealing hers—and at one point I even ran her over with our toy Jeep (sisterhood was a little rough back then). Thankfully we grew out of that phase and became best friends instead. I had the honor of being her Maid of Honor on her wedding day, and now she’s standing by my side for mine. These days we talk pretty much every day, and I can’t even get through chores without sitting on FaceTime with her. I’m so lucky she’s my sister and my built-in best friend.
Best Man
Wieske has been one of the most important people in my life for as long as I can remember. We met back in middle school, became very close throughout high school, and then spent college as roommates — and had the pleasure of dealing with every side of each other's BS along the way. Having been the de facto leader for our group of friends for as long as I can remember, it's him we can all look to for blame if anything goes wrong on the wedding day.
Bridesmaid
Mrs. Susan has been in my life since I was in fourth grade and our families started carpooling to school together. Growing up we spent every weekend playing cards, enjoying happy hour, and having the most intense kitchen utensil wars possible. Mrs. Susan has watched me grow up and navigate every part of life, from adopting my first kitten to buying my first home.
Groomsman
For the first couple years Austin and I knew each other, there’s really no other way to put it — we did not like each other. Somehow, over time, all that arguing and bickering shifted into a friendship built on fun competitiveness and genuine respect. Austin has become one of the most consistent, steady people in my life, and I’m grateful every day that our story turned out the way it did. There’s truly no one I’d rather have standing with me on this day.
Bridesmaid
Connor “Gibby” Gibson and I met as a result of his and Brent’s friendship from working together at the University of Kentucky. Back when Brent and I were long-distance dating, Gibby would pick me up from Brent’s work and take me out for drinks, earning him the very official title of my "babysitter.” After years of Bud lights and High Noons, I think it’s safe to say I’ve successfully stolen him from Brent.
Groomsman
Danny is one of the most loyal people I know. Even though we didn’t really get to know each other until we were college‑aged, our friendship has grown into something extremely meaningful to me. We’ve had some incredible times over the years — the kind that stick with you and shape who you are. I’m both grateful and proud to have Danny standing with me on this day.
Bridesmaid
Kori is Brent’s older sister and one of my bridesmaids. We met because of Brent, and she’s been stuck with me ever since. At weddings, I fully believe no one should sit out the dance floor—especially Kori—so I make it my mission to drag her out there with me. She also strongly believes in personal space and avoiding hugs, which unfortunately for her just encourages me to hug her even more. I’m so lucky to have her as a bridesmaid and can’t wait to officially make her my sister-in-law.
Groomsman
Jimmy is the person I’ve known longer than anyone else standing up there with me, and that alone says a lot. Over the years, no one has made me laugh harder or more often — he’s got a gift for turning any moment into a good one. Beyond the humor, he’s one of the most genuine people you’ll ever meet, the kind of friend who’s real in every way that matters. I’m grateful for the history we share and proud to have him by my side on this day.
Officiant
Taylor Spyker is our officiant and a longtime friend. She and Brent originally met while working together, and when I would come visit, the three of us quickly became a little trio that spent a lot of time hanging out. At one point we even all lived together, which definitely created some fun memories (and a little chaos). It feels extra special to have someone who’s been part of our story for so long be the one marrying us.
