Wedding Party
Mikaela Sisneros
Maid of Honor
A kindred spirit and one of my dearest friends. She is like family, truly a sister. So much of this wedding carries her fingerprints, because of her faithful help and gracious heart. This day would not have come together without her. I also wanted to add a little shout-out to her husband, Samuel, for being such an encouragement. He’s been more than happy to step in and serve to help make this day possible. I’m thankful for them both. - Gabs ♡
Grace Ross
Bridesmaid
Grace Ross, my new sister-in-law. She’s adventurous, living in Guatemala with her husband, Chris. Grace is hilarious, generous with her time and the gifts God has given her to steward, and she has such a servant’s heart. From the very beginning she has been incredibly kind and welcoming, and I’m so excited to call her family and continue growing closer with her.
Kayla Bowlin
Bridesmaid
Kayla Bowlin is truly a kindred spirit, gentle, kind, and such a blessing in my life. Sam and I both consider her and her husband, Cody, dear friends, and their little boy already feels like an honorary nephew. They’re starting to feel more and more like family every day, and I’m excited to continue doing life with them, especially as we look ahead to future ministry together. We are so thankful for both of them.
Emily Oster
Bridesmaid
Emily Oster and I go way back. She is one of the most honest and intentional people I know, transparent, servant-hearted, and generous. She’s hilarious and never fails to make me laugh. Emily has taught me so much about enjoying the Lord and enjoying life. We have made countless memories together, and she remains one of my dearest friends.
Garret Jacobs
Groomsman
Garret is Sam’s brother and brings so much life to every room. He’s incredibly generous, adventurous, and charismatic, with an eccentric spirit that makes people smile wherever he goes. We are so thankful to celebrate with him as both family and friend.
Tyler Otten
Groomsman
Tyler is Sam’s cousin and carries a calm, easygoing spirit. His steady demeanor brings warmth and peace to those around him, and we’re so glad to celebrate this day with him as family.
Cody Bowlin
Groomsman
Cody Bolin, husband of Kayla (Gabrielle’s bridesmaid), is a dear friend from both work and college. He’s a kindred spirit with a gentle heart, and together with Kayla, their friendship has been such a blessing in our lives. We look forward to sharing life and ministry with them in the years ahead.
Mason McDonald
Groomsman
Mason is a college friend of Sam’s, and they shared an unforgettable experience together on an internship in Africa. He has one of the funniest and most adventurous spirits, always keeping people laughing while encouraging them to step into new adventures. We’re grateful for the joy he brings.
Jacob Ezell
Ring Bearer
Jacob, Gabrielle’s brother, is full of charisma and laughter, always a hoot and a half. He is gentle, kind, loving, and endlessly funny. He takes great delight in his role as ring bearer, carrying this important task with joy.
Noa Ghanakan
Flower Girl
Noa is the sweet daughter of our dear friends, who were once Sam’s neighbors and part of his church community during that season. What began as friendship through church and the neighborhood has continued to grow, and now we even work together at the same school, where Noa herself is a student. We are so thankful to have her share in our joy as our flower girl.
