Skye & Ryver Everest
Wedding Party
Ryver Everest
Groom
Hi, I’m Ryver Foxx, I’m 33, and I wear my heart very openly on my sleeve. I’m a proud trans man, an empath to my core, and yes—I tend to feel things deeply. Emotions come easy to me, whether it’s joy, love, or getting way too invested in a musical soundtrack I’m listening to for the hundredth time. I’m originally from Georgia, but I followed my heart all the way to Maine to be with the love of my life, Skye Wolfe, who I get to marry (still doesn’t feel real sometimes). Building a life together here has been one of the best decisions I’ve ever made. When I’m not obsessing over music or musicals with Skye, you can usually find us playing board games or video games, laughing way too hard, or bonding over our shared love of cozy time together. I run on Red Bull, lead with empathy, and love with everything I’ve go and I’m so grateful to be spending forever with my favorite person.
Skye Wolfe Everest
Groom
Hi, I’m Skye Wolfe ✨ Formerly known as Isaak, I’m proudly stepping into my name and my life as my truest self. I’m 34 years old and a transgender man who has been out since August 17, 2017—a journey shaped by courage, resilience, and becoming who I was always meant to be. I have a deep love for musicals, especially Redwood, which resonates with me because of its powerful message about roots—how they need one another to grow, stay grounded, and build connection beneath the surface. That symbolism reflects my own life as I navigate daily mental health challenges and ongoing medical issues. Like roots intertwined underground, love and support are what help me stand tall. I love bowling, singing show tunes, and working as a travel agent, helping others explore the world—especially through cruising, which feeds my sense of adventure. Three months ago, I found Ryver on Facebook Dating, and from the very first conversation, we clicked instantly. Since then, we’ve been inseparable—going to shows, singing musicals together, laughing endlessly, and building a life filled with joy. He works hard, loves me deeply, and shows up for me every single day. I can’t wait for all that lies ahead—traveling the world side by side, meeting him at the altar to say “I do,” and loving one another through this lifetime and beyond, our roots forever intertwined across the galaxies 🌿🌌
Darlene
Aunt Grooms Women
Darlene is so much more than my aunt—she is truly a second mama to me. From the very beginning, she has been a constant source of love, safety, and encouragement in my life. No matter what chapter I was in or what challenges I faced, she has always shown up for me with open arms and an open heart. Through my transition and every step of my journey, she stood beside me without hesitation, offering unwavering support, understanding, and love. She has helped shape the person I am today in ways she may never fully realize. Her quiet strength, resilience, and selflessness inspire me more than words can express. She is the kind of person who will give everything she has to help someone else, never asking for recognition or anything in return. Her compassion runs deep, and her love feels unconditional and endless. I am beyond grateful to have Darlene in my life, not just as family, but as one of my greatest supporters, protectors, and blessings
Gaye Gallant- Prescott
Mother of the Groom
My Mom 💙 My mom is the most inspiring woman in my life. She is my rock, my world, and truly my best friend. She has been by my side through everything—every high, every low, and every moment in between. She spent many years working as a teacher, including time in special education and grade school, always giving her heart, patience, and strength to others. Her hard work, compassion, and dedication have shaped who I am today, and I am endlessly proud to be her son. She has always been loving, accepting, and welcoming of every part of my life. When things became difficult—medically and mentally—she never left my side. Her support, understanding, and unconditional love carried me through moments when I needed it most. I can’t wait to step into this next chapter of my life—marriage—with her standing beside me, sharing in the joy, love, and happiness of this day. Having her with me means everything.
Lynn
Mother of the Groom
My Mama My mama has been my anchor for as long as I can remember. She has loved me fiercely through every chapter of my life—through growth, uncertainty, change, and becoming more fully myself. She has stood beside me with patience, strength, and a love that never once wavered, even when the path wasn’t easy. She taught me how to love openly, how to be compassionate, and how to keep going even when things feel heavy. I wear my heart on my sleeve because she showed me that love is something to be shared, not hidden. Her support has given me the courage to live honestly and boldly, and her pride in me is something I carry with me every single day. No matter how old I get or where life takes me, she will always be my mama—and I will always be her son. I am endlessly grateful for her, for the sacrifices she’s made, and for the unconditional love that has shaped who I am today.
Elaine Gallant
Aunt of the groom
Elaine 🌲💙 Elaine has been in my life since the day I was adopted into this family, and I truly couldn’t imagine my life without her. She is a strong, outspoken woman who would do absolutely anything for the people she loves. Family always comes first for her — no questions asked. She has spent years working in residential facilities as an arts and crafts director, bringing creativity, joy, and care into the lives of so many people. She’s also a true traveler at heart — always going somewhere, always doing something, never bored — a true Mainer through and through (and proud of it, lol). Elaine has always been there whenever I needed someone to talk to, someone to lean on, or someone to help me through a hard moment. She’s stepped into a caretaker role when it was needed without hesitation, without complaint — just love. I couldn’t ask for a better aunt, a better support, or a better human in my life. Thank you, Elaine — for everything 💙
Joann
Grandmother of the Groom
My Nanny My Nanny’s love has always been one of the greatest comforts in my life. It’s the kind of love that feels safe, steady, and forever. From the moment I can remember, she has been someone I could count on—someone whose warmth and kindness made the world feel a little softer. She has watched me grow, change, and find my way, loving me through every stage with quiet pride and unwavering belief. Knowing that I make her proud means more to me than I can ever fully explain. Her love has never been loud or demanding—it has simply been constant, and that constancy has meant everything. I am so thankful to be her grandson. I carry her love with me in who I am, in how I care for others, and in the life I’m building. No matter where life takes me, she will always be my Nanny, and I will always hold her close in my heart.
Felix
Best Man
Felix – Best Man & Brother 🖤 Felix… where do I even begin? You are my rock, my best friend, and truly more like a brother to me. We’ve stood by each other through some of the hardest moments—when things got dark for you, I was there, and when life hit me hard, you never left my side. Through thick and thin, we showed up for one another. Even though you’ve lived in Connecticut and we haven’t met in person yet, our bond is real, strong, and undeniable. As transgender brothers, we understand each other in ways that don’t need explaining. Together, we support one another, lift each other up, and advocate fiercely for our rights and our lives. That’s why having you stand beside me as my best man means everything—not just on my wedding day, but as another trans man standing with me in a transgender wedding that represents love, visibility, and strength. Thank you for being you, for having my back always, and for walking this journey with me. Love you, bro 🖤✊🏳️⚧️
Pal (Crissy)
Best Man
Crissy (My Pal) Crissy is my very best friend in the entire world—my pal—and has been my constant for over twenty years. Our friendship has been built over decades of shared life, and she is so much more than a friend to me; she is family in every sense of the word. We’ve grown up together, learning who we are side by side, and no matter how much has changed, our bond has never faded. We’ve laughed until we cried, cried until there were no words left, and showed up for one another in moments when it mattered most. She’s a few years older than me, and I’ve always looked up to her—for her strength, her wisdom, and her unwavering heart. She’s been a guide, a protector, and a steady presence through every chapter of my life. Over the years, we’ve even worked three different jobs together, proving that we can survive anything when we’re side by side. We sing loudly in the car like no one’s listening, spend countless hours playing Fortnite, and share inside jokes that don’t need explaining. Through all of it, she has been my safe place—someone who knows me deeply and loves me without condition. I am endlessly grateful for her friendship, her loyalty, and her love. Having Crissy as my pal is one of the greatest gifts of my life, and I can’t imagine this journey without her by my side.
Laurie
Groomswoman
Laurie ✨ Laurie may seem quiet at first, but once you get to know her, she’s outgoing, loyal, and the kind of friend you can always depend on. She will have your back no matter what, without hesitation. We connected deeply as friends because we share something important — we’re both adopted — and that shared understanding created an instant bond between us. Her birthday falls on Halloween, which makes perfect sense, because we both love all things spooky and a little magical. Laurie is wild, free-spirited, and unapologetically herself. She brings warmth, energy, and light into every room she walks into, and her presence makes everything feel more alive. I am incredibly lucky to have her in my life and even more grateful to share my wedding day with her by my side 🖤
Jey
Groomsman
Jey (Kilen) Jey—also known as Kilen—is my best friend of over ten years, and truly one of my favorite humans on this planet. He’s married, an incredibly talented tattoo artist, and a proud trans man with the kind of humor that can light up even the darkest days. He loves his pets fiercely and brings that same care and loyalty into every relationship he holds close. Our friendship is built on laughter, honesty, growth, and showing up for each other no matter what. Life is better—and a lot funnier—with Jey by my side.
Sue
Groomswoman
Sue 💙 Sue, you have truly been an amazing friend to me, especially during one of the hardest chapters of my life. When I was leaving a deeply harmful domestic abuse relationship, you were there for me through the breakup, offering support, strength, and safety when I needed it most. I will always be grateful to you — your presence helped save me during a time when I needed someone the most. Your friendship is a gift. You are a strong, compassionate woman who shows up for others without hesitation, and your heart is as powerful as your courage. I love you deeply and can’t wait to share my wedding day with you by my side, celebrating love, healing, and new beginnings together 🤍
Jax
Grooms Party
Jax and I met in a very modern way — on TikTok — and I’m forever grateful that the universe made that connection happen. From the very beginning, Jax’s incredible talent stood out to me. They write music and poetry that cuts straight to the soul, and their art speaks volumes without saying a word. Beyond their creativity, Jax is one of the most intelligent, spiritual, and deeply empathetic people I know. Like me, they wear their heart on their sleeve, and they love fiercely and without hesitation. Jax has supported me through some of the toughest moments of my life, offering kindness, understanding, and a steady presence when I needed it most. Their personality is truly one of a kind — warm, thoughtful, and genuine in every way. They are one of my closest friends, and having Jax stand by my side on such an important day means more to me than I could ever put into words. I’m honored to have them as my grooms Party and even more honored to call them my friend.
