Maid of Honor
My roommate and best friend since freshman year of college, she's been by my side for everything and I know we can always count on each other no matter what is going on. Abby has been there since the very beginning of mine and Damon's relationship, and through all of crumbl runs, quarantining (yay covid), and coffee dates, we've continued to become closer and grow together. I cannot wait to have her by my side on the big day!
Best Man
As the OG Best Friend, Dean and I have been close most of our lives, and since I left for college it has been tough living without him. I love and appreciate the time we get to spend together nowadays, especially when he came to stay with me in Washington D.C. last summer!
Bridesmaid
While we met right before getting sent home for COVID, Court and I became close after becoming roommates sophomore year! She has been one of my roommates since then, and has always been the best person in the world to cheer me up, go with on Dutch runs, and brighten everyone's day around her. She is the absolute life of the party, my Elitchs ride partner (yes, we got a season pass to share summer 2021), and one of the most genuine people I know.

Nev and I met our junior year of high school playing ice hockey together and became great friends. In 2019 after graduating high school, we both went to CCU together and have had a ton of college adventures together. We enjoy grabbing coffee together and going golfing, and I am happy to call him my friend.

Liv and I went to high school together, and met each other at our youth group's summer camp. We became super close super quick and immediately enjoyed spending time together and laughing together! Liv came to visit me my freshman year at CCU, and after beating Damon in a rock throwing competition, the three of us spent the weekend together. She is now also atttending CCU, and I am so incredibly grateful for her in my life.

I have known Sam since junior year of high school, and we met through playing ice hockey together. Since Sam transferred to CCU and asked to room together, he has been more than just my roommate. He has been my workout partner, politics junkie, and a great friend. Sam is one of the smartest people I know, and I am thankful for how close we have gotten in the last year.
Bridesmaid
I've known Mal since my sophomore year of high school, and despite going to college in separate states, we have continued to stay close and have always loved catching up with one another. I got to visit her in Montana after my freshman year, and I have so so many sweet memories from that trip. After countless youth group trips, traveling across the world to Uganda together, and never ending Bonta dates, I am so excited to have her in the wedding.
Groomsman
Cody and I clicked right away when we met! Likely, this is because Cody is a very easy going guy and gets along with everyone he meets! It has been great to have him in my life and watch as he graduated high school, joined the Marines, and continues to grow in his maturity. I am thankful for the love he has for Kim and am happy to call him my brother soon.
Bridesmaid
Since 7th grade, Felicia and I have been best friends, and after going through three school changes together by each other's side, we have continued to stay close and meet up whenever I am able to go back to Bend. My freshman year, she even came out to Denver to visit and got to know Damon better before we became official :). We have dreamed about being in each other's weddings since we were 13, and it makes me so happy that she will be in the wedding party!

I met Scott for the first time on his 21st birthday when I was in Bend visiting Kim and the family in 2020. We got to spend more time together over thanksgiving and enjoying our time together playing Pickleball and hanging out. When I told Scott about my plan to propose to Kim he even offered to come to Colorado to be there and be supportive. He is one of the most hardworking people I know (and that's saying something in this family) and I am thankful for his openness and kindness in accepting me into his family!
Bridesmaid
Lili and I became close sophomore year and have lived together since junior year, and she is one of the most caring people I know! She is always ready with advice as well as a closet of clothes to steal from -- probably half of my dates with Damon I'm honestly wearing Lili's clothes! Whether someone is sick, their hair needs to be curled, or groceries need to be picked up on a short notice, she is always so giving of her time and I appreciate it and her so, so much!

Ben and I met freshman year of college when he was assigned as one of my roommates. Ben’s non-existent social media presence was worrying for us all, as we hadn't had met him before move-in weekend, but it turned out to be one of the highlights of my college experience. “Swole,” as we call him, is one of the most disciplined and hard working people that I have ever met and I am grateful to call him my friend.
