Haylee & Garrett
Meet The Crew!
Steve and Angie Swafford!
Parents of the Bride!
The two people who made me the person I am today. I will forever be grateful to be their one and only daughter. While growing up, you instilled ideals like humility, respect, love, you taught me that kindness doesn’t cost a thing. These values are still helping me live a good life now that I am an adult. These ideals have taught me that it is necessary to honor people and see beyond what they possess. Thank you very much for my special day! I want to thank you for the unconditional love and support you have provided over the years. We will cherish this day and know in our hearts that it is only possible through your devotion to our happiness and success. I'll love you two forever and always. Love, Your babygirl
Tim and Genaya Ruddick!
Parents of the Groom!
Dad, I want to thank you for giving me such a wonderful life. You nurtured me at every step of the way, giving me an excellent education, excellent advice, and a happy place to grow up into a man that I am today. I always wanted to thank you.Thank you for always being my number one fan. Thank you for everything you've ever done for me. Genaya, thank you for everything. We have had our fair share of ups and downs, and of course, it took some adjusting when you entered my life. However, you have never failed to make me feel welcomed and loved, just as a mother should. You've been here for some of my most sensitive moments, especially the bratty teenage years. You honestly deserve a medal for that one. Thank you for putting up with me and loving me as one of your own. Love, Garrett
Keely Stacy
Mother of the Groom
Thank you for the very beginning. The times where feeding me every two hours kept you up all night and changing my diaper was something you never really looked forward to doing. If that isn’t love, then I don’t know what is. Thank you for all the good memories we have made over my twenty one years of life, the good ones and the bad ones. I love you mom. Love, Garrett
Callie Reams
Maid of Honor
To the girl that has been my best friend from day one, literally. My life would surely fall apart if you ever left my side, I am so thankful that you agreed to be my maid of honor. Through all the hard times and all the fun times, you have always been there for me. You have stood by my side through the strength I have shown and the weakness I have shown. You have been such an important part of my life in so many ways. You have been there for me when it seemed like no one else was. You have always been able to make me laugh and feel better. And you have taught me that I am loved and I am worthy of happiness. You are so special to me. I am so thankful that God blessed me with a best friend like you. Love, Your Hayjo
Deon Sellers
Best Man
Deon, you have been my best friend since the day I met you. We have had a lot of good times together that I will always remember. From elementary school, to high school baseball tournaments, to graduating and figuring out our lives together. You'll always be my best friend no matter what life throws at us. Thank you for being the best, best man, and for always being my best friend. Your best friend, Garrett
Ally Jewell
Bridesmaid
Thank you for all the fun times we shared! Thank you for the hours we spent owning the world. I’m not sure I’ll ever come across such a wonderful, thick-skinned friend who can erupt into uncontrollable laughter anywhere and not care about the icy stares from people around us. Thank you for becoming my friend when I felt I didn't have any and for always making sure I had a good time no matter what or where we are at! From the parties at the pool house to the trip to Branson, our memories we have made will always hold a special place in my heart! Love, Haylee
Adam Lloyd
Groomsman
You have been with us from the beginning of the journey right through our wedding day. We are always so grateful that you thought we would be a great fit and now, we can’t live without each other. You are our good luck charm. The first time we met was at your house and the first time we ever hung out was with you. You've been with us from the start and I can't thank you enough. From being one of my best friends to being one of my groomsmen, you'll always be apart of my life! Your friend, Garrett
Hadlee Ruddick
Junior Bridesmaid
I hope you know that I am always one phone call away, and there is never a time that I am not available for an ice cream and vent session. And I hope you know that you are the sun. There will come a boy someday that sweeps you off of your feet and makes you feel like nothing short of a princess, but it is important to remember that he is not the sun. You are. You are positively radiant. The things you have to offer the world are endless, and as long as you work hard, you can accomplish anything. I hope you know that ganging up on your brother with you is one of my favorite things to do. I'm so glad to become a sister to you, and always know that I will always have your back. Love, Haylee
Quinn Crosskno
Groomsman
Thank you for all the memories we have made over the past few years. From baseball to weekends in your pool house, we always made sure we had a good time together. You'll always be one of the truest friends I've ever had and I want to thank you for that. Even when there were disagreements you always seem to lighten the mood, crack a few jokes and make sure we all came together in the end. I will say you're one of the more level headed ones in the group. Thanks for everything man. Your friend, Garrett
Kyleigh Hinson
Junior Bridesmaid
Ever since I was six years old and I held you as a baby, you and I have been inseparable. I can remember playing dolls with you in your room to dancing to songs from Hannah Montana. We've been on vacations together, and we've made memories that I will never forget. As your older cousin, I've had the opportunity to see you grow into the person you are today. I want to thank you for always being there for me. Having a cousin like you is truly a gift because you're not only my cousin, but one of my best friends. You're one of the best people that I know and I am so happy that we are so close. I want nothing but the best for you, because you deserve it. I want you to know how loved you are and how much you matter to me. Love, Haylee Jo
Jon Bailey
Groomsman
Thank you for the constant friendship you have always provided. Unlike friends who come and go, I have never once questioned the friendship and bond that we share because I know it is endless. Growing up together has only made that bond stronger and I look forward to where the future is taking us. It's fun being your big cousin and teaching you the ropes of life. You're lucky, because you're learning from the best. Your older cousin, Garrett
