Brittney & Justin
Wedding Party
Sara Druffel
Maid of Honor
Sara and Britt met their freshman year while living in the same dorm at WSU. After joining the same sorority the two realized they were meant to be besties! While Sara & Britt initially bonded over their freshman awkwardness, they also bonded over their love for coffee, shopping, Jesus, dancing, & long talks about life. Sara loved that Britt was always ok with being the first to sneak out the back door at parties early to run home, change into PJ’s & make some hot tea. One of Sara’s favorite memories with Britt is when they‘d have coffee dates where they could talk & giggle for hours. Sara’s favorite things about Britt are her silly & loving personality, her amazing words of advice, &the way she cares for others. Britt truly is so special & Sara could have never asked for a better bestie.
Caleb McAlister
Best Man
Justin and Caleb met during the summer going into freshman year. Caleb, just a kid from ABQ, and Justin, a curly haired Chaco wearing kid from Sisters, Oregon. Caleb and Justin went on to be inseparable best friends all throughout college. Caleb has the privilege to walk side by side through Justin and Brittney’s relationship. Caleb prides himself on being the reason Justin and Brittney met due to him insisting that him and Justin go over to the girls dorm and cook food their one night. Caleb was hoping to see if that the smell of food would entice any girls to come talk to them. That was when Brittney walked through the door because Caleb burnt his microwave food to a solid crisp and stunk up the whole entire floor and the legend of Justin and Brittney was born that night.

Maid of Honor
I first met Britt 22 years ago in a hospital room when I came into the world and Britt has been by my side ever since. I have always looked up to Brittney and have always been in Brittney’s business. My favorite qualities about Britt are how caring she is for everyone, her big heart, and her old soul. My special power is bringing out Britt’s goofy side. ;) I really look up to Brittney and Justin’s relationship and I hope to find a man who treats me that good one day. Justin has set the bar high and Britt is lucky to have found the love of her life at such a young age. They bring out great qualities in each other and everyone around them. They are my favorite couple to third wheel with and my favorite people to spend time with. I welcome J to the fam. :)

Groomsman
Justin and I met briefly through the game of baseball growing up as our neighboring high schools would play one another. Little did we know what our friendship would turn into as we transitioned into college. We became teammates at Washington State University and began living together during my sophomore and his junior year with our friend Caleb. Those 3 years living together are one’s that I will never forget. There are so many qualities I love about J and among them are his quick witted comments and his strong faith. I am so thankful for Justin’s friendship. I can’t wait to watch him marry the love of his life!
Alyssa Peterson

Alyssa and Brittney first met when they moved into their sorority. They soon became inseparable as best friends, roommates, and even coworkers at Chateau Ste. Michelle Winery. Some of Alyssa's favorite memories with Britt involve the many late night talks over pickle flavored chips in their closet sized room in Kappa Kappa Gamma. Alyssa's favorite things about Brittney are her amazing DJ skills, her warm and welcoming spirit, her thoughtful advice and wise words, and her big heart.
Billy Biggers
Groomsman
Justin and Billy’s relationship first began when they started 5th grade. Forced to be seated next to each other, Billy was very unsure of how his first year of middle school would go sitting next to the new kid. Upon meeting Justin before the year kicked off, Billy could tell that Justin had a very unique feel and an attractive personality. Not to mention, he wore a very stylish studded belt that caught Billy’s eye right away. They quickly found they had a lot in common, & continued to develop their relationship through an endless list of action sports and hobbies. Not much has changed, as they still both share many of the same passions & participate in them together when they are able to see each other. Who would have guessed a random seating assignment could spark a life-long friendship!
Danielle Hamilton
Bridesmaid
Danielle and Brittney met through a mutual friend in 2014 and started a long distance friendship. One of Danielle’s favorite memories with Brittney was their time together in Texas. They went on a road trip to Baylor University, visited Magnolia and watched endless amounts of movies. Brittney is the BEST adventure and dance-party buddy ever! Some of Danielle’s favorite things about being friends with Brittney is her unconditional love, obsession for coffee and pickles and her ability to bring a positive outlook on any situation in life. Danielle can’t wait to be apart of Brittney and Justin’s wedding day, Let’s do this!
Ben Larson
Groomsman
Ben and Justin met when Ben moved to Sisters, OR in 6th grade. Despite being the new kid at school, Justin made Ben feel welcome in the classroom & on the field. Their friendship blossomed over their love of sports as they played soccer, basketball, & baseball on the same teams together for 7 years throughout middle & high school. When not playing sports, Ben & Justin would often be shredding the slopes, ripping mountain bike trails, adventuring in the outdoors & attending the same youth group. During the summer they could be found wakeboarding, swimming in Ben’s pond, & having hours long late night conversations in J’s hot tub. Although they went to separate colleges, their friendship that they formed was strong enough to last a lifetime as they continue to be great friends to this day.

Bridesmaid
I met Brittney through kappa kappa gamma during our freshman year of college. We went from sorority sisters, to roommates to best friends. One of my favorite memories with Britt was the weekend I spent in Seattle after flying in from NYC. We visited the winery and went out to dinner, but my favorite part was enjoying coffee with her every morning. Britts love for coffee is large, but her love for people is unmatched. Her kindness, wisdom and positivity are some of the traits that make her so special. I love ya Britt & cant wait to celebrate you & J.

Groomsman
I met Justin at a WSU football game about 4 years ago at our family tailgate. Since then, we have done a lot together i.e. skiing, surfing, snowmobiling, ATV’ing, shooting, video gaming, and road tripping. I am super pumped he is marrying my sister, and I couldn’t have picked a better guy for her! I’m excited he’ll be my brother-in-law and I am looking forward to spending the rest of my life with him. ;)

I am so happy for these two, it’s been such a joy walking with them through their relationship. Britt and I were both Kappas at WSU, we became close our sophomore year & the rest feels like history. Britt has been a true friend who’s loved me so well and pointed me towards Jesus. She is a faith-filled women who is a loyal friend! What a gem. The first time I hung out with Britt and Justin, it was obvious they loved each other. They carried such a joyful and sweet energy with them. Our time in college are years I’ll treasure forever. Britt introduced me to my soon-to-be husband, Caleb. The 4 of us spent hours hot tubbing at the rec, enjoy BDubs every Tuesday night, numerous camping trips and coug game days. They welcomed me in like family and showed me what true friendship looked like.

I met J through our good buddies Caleb and Cal! We all were baseball players, well except me. Just a frat guy. Fav mem with Justin was for sure packing their Porsche with surfboards and wetsuits and surfing the Bend river wave in the middle of a snow storm in December. That was the raddest day of my life.
Hawley Harrer
Bridesmaid
I met cute Brittney Glessner because my brother is marrying her! I am so excited to have her as an official sister in law! The first time I hung out with Britt was my senior year of high school. J and Britt picked me up from a volleyball tournament in Seattle and I spent the weekend with them. We went to the Ballard Locks and I got to see Brit & J hangin out & watch them keep falling in love more and more every day. Brittney has the most amazing personality, always making me laugh with her funny faces, and has such a chill vibe to balance Justin. J and Britt's faith in God and commitment to a Christ-centered marriage is such an inspiration. Britt has a way of making you feel like you have known her forever, I can‘t imagine not having her in our family. She is an amazing ray of sunshine.
Joey Morgan
Groomsman
Justin and I first met in middle school when his family moved to Oregon. We quickly became friends and have only grown closer since. We have always enjoyed playing baseball, talking about our Christian faith, and just being goofy together! Whenever I’m around Justin, I’m always laughing and having a good time. Justin was a groomsmen in my wedding earlier this year and now I’m super excited that I get to be one of his!
Hannah Harrer
Bridesmaid
The first time I met Britt was when she picked me up from the TINY Pullman airport my first time in the Palouse. After I got over the smallness of the airport the first stop was Dutch Bros because we don’t have that in California and we immediately hit it off over our shared coffee dedication. Britt’s caring heart and gigantic love for others is obvious to see from the first time you meet her. She is generous, kind, and sweet. I could also tell by the way Justin talked about her & treated her that this was someone very special to him & I knew she was going to be around for a long time. As family, I am honored to be standing alongside the two of them as they take the next step in marriage & can’t wait to see what awesome things they accomplish together as a couple. Cheers to their future!
Gabe Willitts
Groomsman
I (Justin) met Gabe on the first day of 5th grade when I moved to Sisters. I was immediately attracted to Gabe’s personality and passion for life and what followed was an amazing friendship full of crazy adventures and amazing memories. From skiing, mountain biking, surfing, and climbing to winning a state championship in soccer the boys covered it all and prided ourselves on being as well rounded as we could be. Gabe passed away May of 2018 but his spirit lives on through adventures and whenever you do something just crazy enough to put a smile on your face. I wanted to honor Gabe by having him be one of my groomsmen as I know his spirit lives on whenever there is laughter, smiles, and good people near.
