Mykal & Garrett

Wedding Party

Sami Shupe

Maid of Honor

As the bride's little sister, Sami has always considered Mykal as her role model, her favorite person, and her built in best friend. Mykal is someone Sami can come to with anything knowing that she will give the best advice, even though she may not want to hear it. They have always lives their lives side by side and always will, and for that Sami is so grateful.

Caitlin Camp

Bridesmaid

Caitlin, being one of the bride's closest cousins, considers Mykal to be the big sister she never had growing up. One of Caitlin's favorite memories is pretending to be horses with Mykal and Sami (MOH) at their grandparent's farm and spilling milk all over the floor trying to eat cereal out of a bowl like a dog. Another favorite memory is freezing to death waiting in line for WinterJam for hours upon end. Caitlin is so thankful for Mykal looking out for her and Sami (even when they would get on her nerves 😉), and she doesn't know what she would do without her.

Sarah Miller

Bridesmaid

Sarah, the bride's college roommate, has many memories from their time at Malone University. Their roomie dates to Lee's Panda Garden are some of her favorite memories because it was a time they would set aside to hang out, just the 2 of them, to de-stress and laugh and eat the *best* sweet and sour chicken ever. Sarah thinks about those nights to this day, and misses living close enough to Mykal to go on roomie dinners.

Aleesha Tartell

Bridesmaid

Aleesha and Mykal quickly became friends their first semester of tech school, and stuck together since. Her favorite memory was when they were in their large animal class and during the cow lab one of the instructors was showing us how to place an orogastric tube. When the tube was successfully in place, the cow coughed and stomach contents went all over the instructor and the only guy in the lab group (the lab group consisted of Aleesha, Mykal, and that one guy). Aleesha and Mykal both took a step back out of the way in sync and immediately started laughing, while the guy did *not* look amused. This truly encompasses Aleesha's friendship with the bride.

Madison Perkins

Bridesmaid

Madison and the bride have been friends since they can remember. Her favorite memory is riding four-wheelers all over Mykal's grandparents' farm every weekend. Madison loves that the pair have stayed the best of friends through every phase of life, and thinks it's nice to know she'll always Mykal no matter what.

Dakota Brown

Bridesmaid

Dakota's friendship with Mykal has been one to cherish. They have been best friends since they were little, and they always pick up right where they left off every time they get together. She loves their summer camp memories, their sleepovers, and all of their photoshoots. Dakota feels so blessed to be by the bride's side through all the emotions of growing up, with this being her favorite one - to see her happy and having the wedding they always talked about as they were growing up.

Makayla Kopriver

Bridesmaid

Makayla never thought that it would take moving away from her family for a job to bring her her best friend, her die for whatever companion, and someone that would go along on any adventure from zoos to amusement parks, tattoo dates, weekly Mexican dinner nights, and even just fun game nights at the bride's apartment.
