Wedding Party

Shelby

Bride

David

Groom

Shannon Ballinger

Maid of Honor

Shelby's older sister and maid of honor. Growing up they fought like sisters do but as soon as Shannon went off to college they learned how much they value each others friendship. Shannon lives in Utah and Shelby lives in CA but sisters find a way to see each other several times a year.

John McIlvaine

Best Man

David's older brother and best man. They speak in mostly movie quotes and inside jokes so if you don't understand when they are speaking or most likely during the best man speech, you will not be alone. John also did our engagement photos and most of the photos you see on this website so a big thank you to him!

Sarah Cole

Maid of Honor

Shelby's maid of honor and best friend and since middle school and next door neighbor. They basically grew up at each other houses and consider each others families family at this point. Although they haven't lived in the same city since high school they are each others rocks, someone to rant to and celebrate the good times cause they remember the bad.

Matt Gonn

Groomsman

Matt and David met playing AA baseball at the age of 10. They continued to be friends and play baseball together through high school. They both then attended the University of Washington together as well. They both love golfing and spend many weekends golfing together.

Jamie Ko

Bridesmaid

Jamie and Shelby have been friends since high school. Fate would take it that they would both move to Southern California after college and be able to continue to be a constant presence in each others lives.

Nathan Montgomery

Groomsman

Nathan and David have been friends since high school. David was seen as part of the family as he spent many days growing up in their household. From hiking, shooting, boating, or just hanging by the bonfire, there was never a dull moment. Most of the time you will hear him referred to as Monte, Shelby didn't know that his real name was Nathan for months (possibly years).

Mariah Montgomery

Bridesmaid

Shelby and Mariah met in PA school at Chapman University. The two years they spent together pushing through long days and nights studying formed a strong friendship. They are both now practicing Physician assistants in Orange County, CA.

Connor Green

Groomsman

Connor was David's first friend once he went from homeschooling to public school in the fifth grade. It was one of those times where you meet someone and you instantly become friends. Now, they have been friends ever since, the two even work together now and hop on "work calls" together every day.

Indy

Flower Girl

The cutest and fluffiest member of the wedding party. Can't wait to see this lil girl strut her stuff down the aisle, beware may give out kisses on her way down :)
