Daly & Connor
Wedding Party
Mary Frances Youngblood
Matron of Honor
Mary Frances and I met in art class freshman year. At Ole Miss, Mary and I took at least 2 classes together every semester, because it was more fun being together than apart. Our friendship is one that I cherish so much, we are always helping each other grow as adults while having the most fun at the same time. She is my confidant when I need someone to talk to and I know will always have my back. We also studied abroad together in Salerno, Italy which grew our friendship even more. Fun fact: Mary Fran's birthday is the day of our wedding!
Laney Harris
Maid of Honor
Laney and I met senior year of high school at a spring party while visiting Ole Miss. Laney and I clicked instantly. In a car ride, driving around Oxford after hanging out twice, Laney said "You know, this is super weird to say, but I can see us being bridesmaids in each others weddings." Well, we both are each others MOHs; Laney's wedding is in December! Laney is family to me and has been my best friend for over 10 years now. I couldn't imagine her not being by my side when I marry Connor.
Libby Clayton
Bridesmaid
Libby and I go way back to 7th grade at Brentwood Academy and have been friends for 16+ years. From being my tennis doubles partner, to my best friend from high school, I know she always has my back. After going to different schools for college, having us both living in Nashville has been a true blessing. Our many girls nights mean the world to me and I am so excited to have her stand by my side as I marry Connor!
Grace Davis
Bridesmaid
Grace is a newer friend of mine, but it doesn't feel like it! I feel like I've known Grace for 10 years. She is so loving and kind with a heart of gold. She has become one of my confidants and gives this best advice. On many weekends we find ourselves in Decatur, AL visiting the Davis' and cherish those times so much. We have learned a lot from this beautiful couple. I am so blessed to have Grace as a friend and bridesmaid.
Ellie Elvin
Bridesmaid
Ellie is a great friend of mine from college; we were Chi Omegas together. Ellie has a wonderful, kind soul. She is fun to be around, very inclusive and has the biggest heart. Ellie goes out of the way for her friends and it shows because everyone always wants to be friends with her. I remember when I first met her, I knew right then I wanted to be her friend! We have so many great memories together both in college and out. Especially some fun Nashville nights! I am so blessed to have her as both a friend and bridesmaid!
Traci Knowlton
Sister of the Groom and Bridesmaid
Traci and I have truly become sisters over the past 3 and a half years. She goes out of the way for the people she loves and she has welcomed me into the Knowlton family, pretty quickly with open arms and matching pjs. I am so grateful for everything she has done for me such as helping Connor plan our proposal and then throwing a proposal party of my dreams. She has made me feel as welcome as Connor in joining the Knowlton family and I am so excited to have her stand by my side!
Olivia Moore
Bridesmaid
Olivia & I go way back to the first day of freshmen year at Ole Miss in Crosby. We lived next door to each other, went Chi O together and have been friends ever since. On bid day, we didn't know anyone so all of our bid day photos were together and I wouldn't have it any other way. Olivia is one of the most positive people to be around. She is encouraging, fun, loving and a great friend. I was so excited when she made her move to Nashville to be with her husband, Michael. Having her nearby is such a blessing and being able to have girls night and couples nights make it even more fun!! I am so excited to have Olivia stand by my side as I marry Connor!
Ansley Page
Bridesmaid
Ansley and I met in science class in middle school at Brentwood Academy and was my very first BA friend. Ansley is one of the funniest people I know. She is easy to be around, very inviting and entirely way too much fun all the time. We both went to Ole Miss together and love to cheer on the Rebs in Nashville. As adults, Ansley has continued to be a wonderful friend of mine. Connor and I both love going over to the Page's to hang with them and see their dog Swayze! She is so inclusive and has been there for over half of my life. I am lucky to have her as a bridesmaid and friend.
Rachel Parks
Bridesmaid
Rachel is one of my Chi O girls that I met at Ole Miss. We lived together junior year at Pierce Palace. But early on, freshmen year, we realized quickly we would be life friends! Rachel gives the best advice and she shows up for her friends. She is my foodie girl, whom I love to try out new restaurants with. Every time I am in Memphis we have a food tour of all the new restaurants she wants me to try! We have traveled back and forth from Memphis to Nashville many times to be there for each other. I am so blessed to have a friend like Rachel and so happy she is one of my bridesmaids!
Elle Prior
Bridesmaid
Elle and I go way back to freshmen year of high school. She has been my confidant, best friend, party-goer, and dance partner since the minute we met. Elle has had my back the past 14 years and I cherish our friendship immensely. Though we haven't been living in the same state for half of our friendship, we've always been there for each other and couldn't be happier that she will stand next to me on our wedding day! Also, Elle and her family are the ones we can thank for introducing Connor and I and for that I am forever be grateful.
Stephanie Stephens
Bridesmaid
Stephanie was one of my first Ole Miss friends and senior year roommate in the Chi Omega house! Stephanie and her now husband Paul, used to pick me up for dinner, in college, where we would go on third-wheel dates. A fun memory we are going to keep up with Connor now! Stephanie goes out of her way for her friends. In college, I found myself at the Wharton household in Memphis many times on weekend trips or just to hang out. She even teamed up with my mom and surprised me with the ultimate 21st birthday party, a time I will never forget. Steph has been such a wonderful friend to me throughout the years and I am so grateful to have her stand by my side as I marry Connor.
Allison Supko
Bridesmaid
Allison and I met when I moved back to Nashville after college. We have similar interests: music & fashion, so we hit it off right away. From going to as many Jon Bellion concerts as possible, to always being down for a beautiful rooftop hang with hours of conversation involved, Allison has become one of my closest ladies! Some of my favorite memories with Allison have revolved around a new restaurant and the best food! Allison is a great friend, and is the ULTIMATE hype girl. Our friendship means the world to me and I am so happy she is going to be standing by my side when I marry Connor!
John DeQuatro
Best Man
I first met John my sophomore year at Purdue University. We did not like each other to begin with as we both thought the other was trying to be cooler than they were. We quickly realized however, when we joined the same fraternity, that we were both extremely weird and neither of us were cool. Since rooming with each other senior year, John and I have always been able to get together to have fun regardless of what states we lived in. I am happy to have him stand next to me as Daly and I get married.
Connor Goodheart
Groomsman
Connor and I first met my freshman year at Purdue, and immediately became friends over the correct spelling of “Connor”. From living with each other to going to Germany for spring break, Connor and I have made a ton of memories over the years. It has always been great to see him when Daly and I visit Chicago and cannot wait till Daly and I can get him to Nashville to visit. He was my first friend at Purdue, and I am grateful he will be at our Wedding Day supporting Daly and I.
Zane Cantrell
Brother of the Bride and Groomsmen
When I first met Daly, I did not know then that Zane and I would become as close as we have. He has handled my sub-par golf skills with grace, but never-the-less we always have fun together. From boating together to El Squid Roe in Cabo, Zane has become closer as a brother than I could have imagined. Zane has always been one of Daly and I’s biggest supporters and I am so thankful to have him by my side as we get married.
Luke Davis
Groomsman
Luke and I met on a bus ride from Vegas to Mt. Zion for Daly’s Matron of Honor’s Wedding. I didn’t know it then because I had known Daly for only 6 months and was the awkward 18th wheel, but Luke and I would become great friends. Luke always puts others before himself and has always welcome Daly and I with open arms whenever we visit them in Decatur, Alabama. I am so glad to have met Luke and am incredibly grateful to call him a friend and have him stand at my side when Daly and I get married.
Thomas "T" Hamilton
Groomsman
I have known Thomas almost my entire life. We grew up as next-door neighbors and our parents are still next-door neighbors today. From the beginning Thomas and I would be at each other’s house to the point where we created a dirt path between our houses. Whenever Daly and I go back to Melbourne, Thomas is the first person I call after my parents. I can not wait to have my oldest friend stand by Daly and I’s side on our wedding day.
Rick Li
Groomsman
Ricky and I met my senior year at Purdue and hit it off right away over our mutual enjoyment of restaurants and food. For the two years I was long distance with Daly, Rick and I would get dinner almost once a week, and when Daly was in town, we would always try to see him for dinner or a drink. Rick has been extremely supportive of myself and helped me wade through the difficulties of dating someone long distance. I am so grateful to have him stand by my side as Daly and I tie the knot to never be long distance again.
Phil Pielet
Groomsman
Phil and I met while we were in the same fraternity. Ever since I have known Phil, he has always been someone I could rely on and the voice of reason for our friend group. Whether it was visiting him in Chicago for St. Patty’s day or visiting him for the 4th of July parade he has always been welcoming when I did not have a place to go for the holidays. I am thankful for his support as Daly, and I get married.
Seth Weisser
Groomsman
I met Seth when he first joined our fraternity my Junior year at Purdue. We became friends instantly and have never looked back. He has always been able to put a smile on anyone’s face and is always willing to go out of his way to celebrate others. From his trips to Nashville to visit Daly and I to our trips to see him in Indiana, we have always been able to make each other laugh and have great times. I am so glad to have him standing by my side as I get to marry Daly.
