Maid of Honor
The brides favorite sister. Although she had has already passed me up in height, she is on her way to passing me up as world traveler. You could say we go way back.
Matron of Honor
Friends since 7th grade Spanish class. We have been dreaming about our weddings since before we pulled the all nighter to watch the royal wedding in 2011! Now as Matron of Honor, she sets a beautiful example of marriage.
Bridesmaid
Our friendship started after being placed as roommates on a high school ACTS retreat. Even though she graduated from UT, our friendship made it through the test of time. From prom group to wedding party, we have been through so much life together!
Bridesmaid
One of my first friends freshman year at A&M after joining the sorority Kappa Alpha Theta. During our junior and senior year of college, we became roommates and moved to a house off Grove Street. The roommates in our household became known as "the Grove Girls."
Bridesmaid
Sophomore year of college, we slept in bunk beds while living in the Theta house. A year later, we were Grove Girls. As the last person I have shared a room with, she'll be able to prepare Ross for the potential sleep talking in his future...
Bridesmaid
From a Grove Girl roommate to dive buddies. We have dove together in Costa Rica and Belize with many more adventures to be had! I can also give her 100% of the credit to teaching me how to curl my hair, a valuable life skill.
Bridesmaid
My fellow tall girl in Grove Girl group pictures . Now she is my dog mom role model. As pen pals over summer break in college, she's a friend I will never lose touch with!
Junior Bridesmaids
Cousins of the bride! I remember their mamma's wedding like it was yesterday, I can't believe it's already my turn. These girls are my favorite young ladies that I couldn't imagine my big day without!
Officiant
Ryan Andrew Stawaisz is the man of the year ! After beating cancer, revitalizing his parish, and being an all around good guy, he's now set his sibling sights on me, his old brother. But you know I wasn't always this old... I used to be his big brother... that ended my freshman year of college when I came home and realized that Ryan had grown 5 inches in 5 months. Even though he was now the bigger brother, we still get along. Ryan had always been a great adventure buddy. Throughout my life I have always enjoyed having him by my side. Whether we were shrimping in Alaska or mountain biking in Texas, life's always better with him around. I'm so blessed to have Ryan as my brother and Father.
Best Man
Matt is a BBQ master and a good hunting buddy. He has always set a good example of what it means to be a Catholic man, husband and father.
Groomsman
Nick is my oldest and most trusted friend, he has always been there for me, even when he got grounded in the process. I look forward to the day when our kids play and maybe even get grounded together.
Groomsman
Paul and I are both Battlers from Company B-1 Texas A&M Corps of Cadets. Paul is a great leader on and off the battlefield. He also always has the right size band aid for any life threatening laceration.
Groomsman
Chad and his wife Joy are great friends and my favorite neighbors. Moving to a new house is going to be bittersweet, but I’ll always be close enough to help complete the next project, even if it’s a raised Bed.
Groomsman
He has taught me a lot about what it means to be a good friend, he is a selfless person who is always willing to serve others. Fabian is an old soul with a kind heart; but getting hit by one of his dodgeballs might change your mind.
Groomsman
Everyone needs a friend like Garrett. His positive attitude and surplus of energy can turn any situation in the right direction. Garrett can also survive for months at a time while eating nothing but eggs.
Groomsman
Andrew is the only longhorn I would be happy to call my brother. Andrew always enjoys trying new restaurants and is my favorite double date choice for exploring Houston’s best kept culinary secrets.
