Wouldn't want anyone but my amazing sister to be my Maid of Honor. Very thankful for her guidance in my life!

Cody Scroggins
Best Man
Cody was my next door neighbor freshman year of college and we worked together after graduating at CCU. He has helped me through a lot over the last years as I transitioned to do ministry and I’m beyond grateful to have him as my best man.
Anthony Zeigler
Groomsman
I met Zig as I invited him in my room to watch a Steelers game in my dorm room at college. I had no idea it was the beginning of a lifelong friendship and many crazy adventures together the last two years of college and beyond.
Caleb Lowe
Groomsman
I grew up with Caleb at Crossroads Christian Church and we’re in cub scouts together as well. I have a lot of memories of playing basketball and eating at B-Dubs and CiCi’s(probably too much), but I’m forever grateful for his Godly influence in my life during high school and beyond.
Mark Walters
Groomsman
Mark has been one of my best friends since freshman year of college, which led to many late night adventures, meeting to do homework but watching How I Met Your Mother instead, and our daily breakfasts senior year. I always knew anytime I need an encouraging word, Mark would be there.
Austin Osborn
Groomsman
Austin was on the basketball team at CCU my first year and I was the manager on that team. My favorite memory is when we got stuck on the highway in a snow storm and sat and watched the whole NBA all star game waiting for the road to be cleared. Even though we don’t see each other much, he is always a phone call away and a lifelong friend.
Evan Dodson
Groomsman
Evan is Amanda’s brother. He is absolutely hilarious, an incredible Christian guy, and I love the way he is always looking out for Amanda and his family. I’m beyond excited to be gaining him as my own brother.
Carl Illian
Officiant
Carl is Amandas grandfather. We are extremely blessed and honored to have such a godly man be our officiant.
David Mitchell
Officiant
I don’t remember the first time I met my brother, but I know he’s always been there for me. Even though we aren’t brothers by blood, there has never been a time that I haven’t known that I was loved like a blood brother. I was the ring bearer in his wedding and I am beyond privileged that he will get to marry Amanda and I.
Levi Decker
Ring Bearer
Levi is one of the first kids that Amanda ever babysat and we are so excited to have him as one of our ring bearers.
Elias Wood

Elias is one of Amandas students who she shares a special connection with. We are super excited to have him be one of ring bearers.
Savannah Decker

Savannah is one of the kids that Amanda has babysat for the longest time. We are super excited to have her as one of our flower girls.
Eliza Wood
Flower Girl
Eliza is another one of Amandas students! We are super excited to have her be apart of our special day!
Caleb McDowell
Usher
The first day I ever met Caleb I tackled him in excitement after winning corn hole. Somehow he still was willing to be friends with me after that, and I’m so grateful for his friendship and words of wisdom over the years .
Andrew Palombit
Usher
I have been best friends with Andrew since around 3rd grade. We had a ton of great memories from going to The Fall Festival together every year, Rock the World at Holiday World, high school small group at church, and our love for MythBusters. I’m so grateful for his friendship through all these years.
Spencer Hogan
Usher
Spencer and I really got close when he invited me to come visit Sonrise where he was the youth pastor. He helped me realize my passion and heart for youth ministry. I’m so grateful for his friendship, as well as the many talks about sports from one of the most objective fans I’ve ever met.
