Maid of Honor
Sarrah (or Terminator as Ben calls her) has been my best friend since we don't even know when. The age old "she's been in my wedding longer than he has" joke to a t. My person and the one who will hold my hand through all the crazy that could come with planning a wedding.
Best Man
Nick and Ben have been best friends longer than even Terminator and I. No surprises when he was the immediate answer when Ben was asked who the best man would be.
Bridesmaid
Generally the first person I call in a "crisis" especially because the "crisis" usually ends up being laughable and she will refrain from laughing until she can laugh with me. She also will be right there for all of my crazy telling me I am not overreacting and it will all be okay.
Groomsman
Slade is our oldest son, having him (and in turn his brother) as part of the wedding party was one of the first no brainer decisions we made. The only people more excited than us for this wedding is him. Even if we aren't having king crab for dinner.
Bridesmaid
Ben's little sister, and possibly the one voice of reason who can keep all of us grounded and sane. The driving force behind the competitive nature of game night and the original commentator of "BE BETTER!" when one of us wasn't living up to the challenge in mario party. She will answer any question I (or we) have with grace and kindness and will never hesitate to remind us that this day is about us.
Groomsman
TK, Candi Jo's Husband, is the best addition to the family. The way he loves coming to the farm, playing games, hanging out with the boys and just being involved has made him a perfect fit. I am not sure anyone remembers life pre-TK. Other than Slade's infamous "Auntie why is your car black?" TK showed up, never left, and has fit in perfectly ever since. We can't wait to have him standing with us on our special day.
Bridesmaid
The other "Sara" or the one who I started talking to at a flag football practice and haven't stopped talking to since. The one who got Hayden to tell me "I'm so proud of you for making a friend!" as if I had exactly zero before I met her.
Groomsman
Picking Hayden to be a groomsman was another easy choice. He will surely be the life of the party as he keeps telling me he's ready to "break it down" at the wedding. He may very well have a deck of cards in his pocket and challenge anyone to a game of threes just to remind us he's probably the most competitive and loves a good card game. We can't wait to have him stand with us on our big day.
Bridesmaid
Kelly and Ben have been friends for years, (we don't talk about how Fallon thought they dated for multiple years when it was really two weeks), She adopted Fallon and it made sense to ask her to join our crew
Groomsman
Evan is Ben's cousin and they grew up together. They have always been close and it was an easy decision for Ben to ask him to be his groomsman.
