Emma & Jacob
Wedding Party
John Hewlett
Best Man
The man. The myth. The legend. John Hewlett. There are few advocates for the outdoors and science like John Hewlett. I am grateful to have worked alongside him, flipping logs for salamanders, cruising for snakes in complete darkness, surviving wildlife bombarding our vehicle, flying over Daniel Boone National Forest, surviving grad school, and so much more.
Kaitlyn Laubach
Matron of Honor
After meeting in college at UTMartin, Kaitlyn and Emma have been best friends for over ten years. Through ups and downs and distance, when the two get to visit, it's like no time has passed.
Tyler Hoard
Groomsman
It's difficult to know where to begin with Tyler. From being his student to being an assistant for his botany course at Murray State, I have always known Tyler as a steady presence, a reliable friend, and one of the most brilliant people I've ever met. Though our paths may diverge in life, we will always be Nerds on the Patio.
Jessica Burton
Bridesmaid
One of the two best sisters-in-law a girl could ask for. Jessica will fiercely defend those she loves, and I am so grateful to be joining her family.
Alyssa Allen
Groomswoman
Alyssa is a sarcastic, shark-loving friend who will go to war for her people. Alyssa isn't afraid to call others out when they've wronged those closest to her. She is a fierce and resilient person whom I am proud to call a friend.
Becca Pease
Bridesmaid
One of the two best sisters-in-law a girl could ask for. Becca will crack a joke as quickly as she will drop everything to help you, and I'm lucky to have her standing next to me.
Henry Pruett
Groomsman
Henry was my roommate in college. Between memes, trivia, cracking jokes over a mutual love of science, and 3 am gaming, Henry was—and remains—one of my greatest and most resourceful friends.
E. Frizzell
Bridesman
Growing up eight years apart, you would think that we would never get along, but you have always been my confidante and sounding board when it comes to bad relationships of the past. So I am so glad to have you standing next to me when I marry the love of my life. <3
Kody Smith
Groomsman
My friendship with Kody is my oldest. Growing up next door, Kody was a great friend who was always down for anything. From making mud pies to whipping each other with lightsabers on the trampoline to bottoming out his truck in the lot next to the movies, Kody's enthusiasm, energy, and fearlessness are contagious!
Corrine Christensen
Bridesmaid
With the training of a true Memphian, Corrine will protect those she loves. I am thankful she loves me, so I'm safe. But seriously, Corrine is one of the strongest, fiercest friends you could ever find.
