ANDI & CORY
Wedding Party
Michaelyn Thames
Maid of Honor
Andi and Micha met freshman year of high school when their civics teacher sat them next to each other because she knew they would become friends, and she was right. They've been besties ever since; fourteen years and counting!
Justin Grothaus
Best Man
Justin is Cory's older brother and best friend. He is married to Jenna, dad to Ella and Brooks, the most passionate Braves fan you'll ever meet and always down to talk about grass.
Sophie Douglas
Matron of Honor
Andi and Sophie have known each other for years. The two first became study buddies in college and have been best friends ever since. Sophie is kind, compassionate and one of the sweetest women you'll ever meet. She is married to Trey and they have a precious daughter, Finnley.
David Grothaus
Best Man & Father of the Groom
What better person to stand by a man's side on his wedding day than his father? An amazing "Dad" and "Bonkers", David passed down his love of all things mechanical, outdoor and DIY to Cory.
Erin Farrell
Bridesmaid
Erin is Andi's wild child BFF. They met 8 years ago as colleagues and quickly became brunch buddies and partners-in-crime. Work besties turned life besties, Andi is forever grateful for Erin's loyalty, wit, & life-of-the-party energy.
Wesley Holley
Officiant & Groomsman
Best friends but more like brothers, Cory and Wes have known each other for 15 years. Wes and his wife, Ashley, have supported Cory and Andi throughout their relationship, and Wes has been a huge part of Cory's faith journey. When Cory and Andi started thinking about who would officiate, Wes was the obvious choice.
Jenna Grothaus
Bridesmaid
Cory and Andi truly lucked out in the sister-in-law department with Jenna. Married to Cory's brother, Justin, and mother to Ella and Brooks - Jenna welcomed Andi into the family with open arms from the beginning. She is sweet, laid-back and the designated family party planner and decorator.
Ian Hogg
Groomsman
Andi's best friend, younger brother and forever partner-in-crime. When Cory was preparing to propose, he reached out to Ian about a good time to chat and Ian immediately responded "The answer is no." The two constantly tease each other, almost like they've always been brothers.
Katie Sanders
Bridesmaid
Married to Cory's friend, Josh, Katie and Andi immediately hit it off the moment they met. Katie is genuine, loyal and the life of the party. She will be just weeks away from welcoming Baby Sanders at the wedding, but Cory and Andi have no doubt she'll still be dropping it low on the dance floor!
Josh Sanders
Groomsman
Cory and Josh have been friends for over 10 years. The two play together on a softball league and are always down for a round of golf. Josh and his wife, Katie, are expecting their first child just a few weeks after Andi and Cory are married.
Ashley Holley
Bridesmaid
Ashley is married to Cory's friend, Wes, and welcomed Andi with open arms from the beginning. The two became fast friends and share a love of travel. Ashley and Katie, along with their husbands, helped Cory plan the perfect proposal during their vacation to Antigua last December.
Jon Sanders
Groomsman
Cory and Jon have been best friends since they were 13. They share a love of local Atlanta sports and music. At the wedding, you will almost always find Jon on the dance floor.
Christi Sharple
Bridesmaid
Neighbors turned close friends, Andi and Christi have been side-by-side through thick and thin since Andi moved to Atlanta 6 years ago. Christi fulfilled the ultimate best friend duty when she secretly teamed up with Cory's mother to introduce the happy couple. Needless to say, the rest was history!
Andrew Osborne
Groomsman
Andy is Cory's dad's friend and business partner - but might as well have been an uncle. He is incredibly hard-working, but never too busy for a quick round of golf.
Riley Redding
Bridesmaid
Andi and Riley met 6 years ago in Atlanta when Riley's mom, Christi, moved in next door. They have worked together, traveled together, and supported each other through many seasons of life. Riley is sweet and a ball of energy with a big heart.
Markus Gierschner
Groomsman
Also like an uncle, Markus watched Cory grow up and even though he lives in Florida, has always been available to offer advice and have a good time.
Kayla Turner
Bridesmaid
Andi and Kayla met when her mom, Christi, moved in next door. They share a love of margaritas, good food and home design. Andi was Kayla's bridesmaid when she married her husband, Travis, in late summer of 2019. Kayla and Travis have a beautiful baby boy, Briar, and a baby girl on the way!
Matt Whittaker
Groomsman
Matt is Cory's cousin, but also a close friend. He is the most genuine, kind and caring person who would give the shirt off his back for anyone. He's also quite possibly the biggest South Carolina Gamecock fan to ever walk the Earth.
Riley Hogg
Ring Bearer
The happiest baby boy, Riley is all smiles and will melt your heart the second you meet him.
Brooks Grothaus
Ring Bearer
2-years-old and always down for anything, Brooks is the most laid back toddler ever and has the coolest hat collection.
Ella Grothaus
Flower Girl
The spunkiest 4-year-old you'll ever meet! Everyone at the wedding will be a friend to Ella by the end of the night.
