Kristen & Evan
Wedding Party
Bailey Berry
Maid of Honor
Bailey and I met in Radford, Virginia, in 2019, and since then, we’ve been the best of friends. Even though we live in different states, our bond stays strong through trips—whether long getaways or spontaneous overnights. As I start this new chapter, I’m so grateful to have Bailey by my side. Her love and support mean the world to me, and I couldn’t imagine this moment without her there to share in the joy.
Lauren Downer
Bridesmaid
Lauren and I met in 2016, and since then, she’s been my hometown girl—beautiful, talented, and full of energy. Whether it’s brunches, laughter, or baking each other birthday cakes, every moment with her is a good time. I’m so excited to have her by my side on our big day. She’s been my rock, my partner in crime, and the one who always makes me laugh. I couldn’t imagine this moment without her.
Kelsey Young
Bridesmaid
Kelsey and I started as coworkers, but it didn’t take long for us to become the best of friends. Her family quickly became my second family, and I know that no matter when I call, she’ll always be there. From our spontaneous girls’ trips to our two-person book club, Kelsey’s gentle heart and unwavering friendship has such an impact on my life. I truly can’t imagine walking down the aisle and beginning this new chapter without her beside me.
Kaitlyn Reese
Bridesmaid
Having my only big sister, Kaitlyn, as my bridesmaid is a true blessing. She’s always been such a guide for me with her faith, wisdom, and love. Growing up, we spent hours playing with Barbies, having our dolls get married, and imagining this day long before it ever came. Kaitlyn’s godly heart and unwavering support have shaped me into who I am today, and I am so excited to walk down the aisle with her by my side. She’s not just my sister—she’s one of my role models, and my lifelong friend.
Madison Sizemore
Bridesmaid
Having Madison as my bridesmaid is truly a blessing. As my little sister, she has been with me through every chapter of life, bringing love, laughter, and unwavering support. From our childhood days to all the moments that have shaped us into who we are today, she’s always been by my side. Her kindness, strength, and loyalty are qualities I admire deeply. I’m so grateful to have her by my side on this special day, not only to celebrate our sisterhood but the deep friendship we share. She’s not just my sister, she’s someone I know I can always count on.
Hannah Ramsey
Bridesmaid
Since meeting Evan's family, Hannah has welcomed me with open arms into the family. Her kindness and genuine heart have made me feel like I’ve always belonged. Over time, she’s become like another little sister to me—someone I can always count on for support and laughter. I’m beyond grateful to have her by my side as I begin this new chapter, and celebrating this special day with her means so much to me.
Owen Browning
Best Man
Mine and Owen's friendship goes back as far as a friendship can. We started in the same class in kindergarten and have been friends ever since. We've went from playing little league sports against each other as kids to playing varsity sports together in high school to golfing together anytime we get the chance as adults. We've went from being each other's wingman as teenagers to being each other's best man in our weddings. Owen has always been someone I can count on whether it be a phone call in the hard times, a drink to celebrate or a road trip to surprise me on my 30th birthday. Having my kindergarten classmate be my lifelong friend and best man of my wedding is one of the rarest and coolest things I'll get to experience in this life. There's no one else I'd rather have by my side on my big day and it's an honor to have Owen as my best man.
Jarred Ramsey
Groomsman
Mine and Jarred's memories go all the way back to grandma's house as kids riding bikes and drinking yoohoo from glass bottles. Growing up one year apart and only living a couple miles away from each other, we've always been pretty close. We've became especially close after my college years when me, Jarred and Sam began our fishing adventures. Having someone in your life who is willing to hike countless miles into the middle of nowhere or drive hours to catch a handful of fish and spend some time together experiencing god's beautiful creation, is a special thing. Throughout my life I've watched Jarred go from a kid spray painting bikes and digging in the creek for crawdads to a business owner, husband and soon to be father. It's an honor to have Jarred by my side on my big day and I wouldn't have it any other way.
Samuel Romine
Groomsman
I first met Sam in the summertime after my college years. What started as a friend of a friend, eventually grew into a true friendship through time spent around each other and common interests. The most vital of common interests being the love of fishing, of course. Over the years, me, Sam and Jarred have hiked countless miles, explored numerous rivers, creeks and lakes, experienced sunny days, thunderstorms and snowy frigid winter conditions, creating stories and memories that we'll share and look back on for the rest of our lives. I am honored to have Sam by my side on my big day to add one more memory to the shelf.
Derek Ramsey
Groomsman
Derek is the first born in my family, my older brother. Having Derek to compete against and look up to all my life has helped shape me into the man I am today. All my life Derek has been what an older brother should be: a role model, a trailblazer and someone I can always call on. He's always set the bar high. From graduating in the top of his class to becoming a successful PA and starting an amazing family. I wouldn't be the man I am today without Derek in my life, and I couldn't imagine getting married without my big brother by my side.
Zach Ramsey
Groomsman
Zach is my younger brother. There's a five-year age gap between me and Zach but we've always made up for it with our shared passions and interests. Growing up we shared an interest in sports and the great outdoors. We were always playing whiffle ball in the yard, playing kickball in the basement, looking for snakes in the woods or fishing in a creek somewhere. I've gotten to see Zach pursue his interests in the outdoors to the utmost when I was there to watch him walk across the stage and accept his master's degree in marine biology. I hope it doesn't bother him too much knowing that no matter how educated he becomes in the subject I'll always be able to out fish him. I'm proud of the man Zach has become and I'm proud to have him standing by my side on my big day.
Kyle Robson
Groomsman
I met Kyle my freshman year at West Virginia University. We eventually became roommates and from there the stories wrote themselves. Through the ups and downs and many mistakes of early adulthood, Kyle became like a brother to me. Father time has drifted us apart over the years, but Kyle will always be a main character in some very key chapters in my book of life. As someone I'll always considered of dear friend, its a privilege to have Kyle standing by my side on my big day.
