Allyse Dunnigan

Bridesmaid

Allyse is Sophie’s older sister. Sophie has looked up to her for since day 1. She couldn’t have asked for a better influence and role model in her life, and now, she couldn’t be more excited to have her along for her big day.

Karmen Wagner

Bridesmaid

Karmen and Sophie met in the 7th grade. Since that point Karmen’s become part of the family. The Hoge’s joke that she’s the 4th sister. Karmen has also always been a huge support to Sophie. They ran cross country together in high school, and now, this past year, she and Sophie completed their first marathon together.

Kaycee and Tanner

Host couple/Ushers

Kaycee is Sophie’s cousin. They were the same age growing up and vividly remember arguing about what is better, dresses or pants. As adults we can all easily agree it’s pants... but Sophie will put on a dress anyway.. at least for the wedding.

Kelly and Tyler Esau

Kelly and ‘Ty Ty’ are David’s sister and brother-in-law. We could not be happier to have them celebrating with us.
