Maid of Honor
My little sister by God’s design, but by love we became friends. Through all of life’s ups and downs, she has been a rock by my side and my wedding day will be no exception.

We connected on the Middle School bus and the ride has yet to stop nor been boring! From Lawton Chiles Middle to partying Downtown, being roommates to fun vacations, through pregnancies and now working at Specialty Management, I get to share it all with Rachel… including clothes because we love the same things. A true friend and for that I am grateful.

Let’s talk about the friends you find when your navigating life as an adult. The ones we love so much we give them titles like “auntie” to our kids. Kalin is a woman to tell you like it is, will drop everything to be there for you, not to mention she is comedian funny! The times spent with each other and our children whether we are doing fun, active things or hanging at our homes- these times mean the most to me. And those beautiful invitations you received to come celebrate with us at our wedding were hand made with love by yours truly.

I have the absolute pleasure inheriting Jenna from the Alpert’s and am SO grateful for it. I felt Jenna’s love and warmth for me and Braydon nearly instantaneously. We clicked fast and I cherish every chance we get to talk and hangout with each other. I couldn’t feel any more blessed to have her in my life, and extra blessed to have Maeve and Kieran be a part of the wedding as well. I feel so lucky to have a second sister and am excited for all our future family adventures together.
Bridesmaid
Shelby and I met working at Specialty Management Company. We started within the same week. We quickly bonded over our love of faith and all things Disney, which makes our trip to Universal ( her first time there ) all the more better and is one of my favorite memories together! Looking back on our years shared, our friendship is divine. Shelby is my dear friend first, and a coworker second.
Bridesmaid
Jess and I have known each other for 6 years and have grown together through faith, service work, charity events, and many fun activities! She is so rooted in faith that it radiates love, light and selflessness. It is inspiring. Sharing big and small events with you has been a gift. Thank you for all you have done for me and being beside me when I say “I Do”
Best Man
My older brother. A role model and friend like no other. Helped pave a, mostly good, path for me to UF and SAE. Grateful that God gave me an older brother like J.
Co-Best Man
My younger brother, friend and IT support. Just kidding, but seriously. Might be my younger brother, but I look up to him in many ways. Also, gave me the great gift of becoming an Uncle and Godfather for the first time and I’ll be forever grateful for that.
Groomsman
My fraternity brotherman. Had many great times at UF, including going to the national championship game in 2009! Couldn’t imagine a better guy to go through college and life with, or a better foosball partner!
Groomsman
We became friends towards the end of high school. Bonded over our love of SEC football and the outdoors. Mike help ignite my love of hunting and I remain forever grateful for his time up at Mike’s property in Western North Carolina for our annual White Tail hunts, where even if they don’t harvest a monster buck their roots run deeper and deeper in Faith and Friendship.
Groomsman
We met freshman year on the bus to Brantley and life hasn’t been the same since. Jack was the Vice President to me in the Fishing and Preservation Association of Lake Brantley and now is second in command of the Fishing World at IGFA. Without my influence Jack may never have made it to where he is now. You’re welcome. Witness to my two (near) world record catches, one bonnet head shark in Ponce Inlet and one cero mackerel in the Bahamas. Wish you woulda known that shark was a world record and wish that other shark didn’t smoke that cero. Oh well, life moves on and am grateful mine does with you by my side.
Groomsman
A true gentleman and friend. As genuine as the day is long, we bonded over our love of the Gators, fishing, bbq and country music amongst many other things. Now I enjoy our long talks on the phone, mostly about family, faith and Gator football.
Officiant
A true brother from another…who would have thought that getting paired up for a middle school science project (what a sweet catapult) would have so positively changed the trajectory of our lives. Your strong faith kept me grounded at many a crucial points in my life and their isn’t another guy I would have rather gone across England and Spain with…thank you for marrying me to my best friend and for all that you done for me in my life.
Distinguised Gentleman of Honor
My longest running friends who have always been there for me, from Kindergarten onwards. Besides not telling me about trying out for Varsity sophomore year, we always run together and am truly grateful for our life long friendship.
