Rachel & Beau
Wedding Party
Nikki Varitimidis
Maid of Honor
Nikki and I went in as blind roommates in Asheville and have been thick as thieves ever since! She taught me how to live in (and love) the South, and although we are opposites in so many ways, she is truly the sister I never had.
Tommy Keeler
Best Man
The first time I met Tommy was Student Council at Shannondale; history was made and we never did anything as boring together as Student Council ever again. No matter where life takes us, we always end up back together.
Heather Rocks
Bridesmaid
Heather was my co-worker in Greenville and I am so glad I accepted her random lunch invite one day. We have so many things in common and I love living close enough to visit her in DC!
Jeffrey Smith
Best Man
What can I say about Jeff? To be honest I don’t know if it would be proper or legal to say any of it, but he’s been there for me through everything. I may just leave this one here...
Nicki Smith
Bridesmaid
My hometown gal Nicki...we didn't become friends until we moved to college (different ones!) and now I can't believe we have been so close for almost 10 years! I always look forward to my visits home to grab a beer with this girl at the BCT and can't wait to return the favor by her side in her wedding in March!
Eric DeLorenzo
Groomsman
Eric is the long lost member of my motley crew; he grew up way too far away, was a bit too young, and I only had to hit up his sister for a year before she'd go out with me. But hey, better late than never to gain a brother-in-law.
Taylor Onaga
Bridesmaid
Taylor was in one of my group projects at MSU my junior year (her senior) and we hung out a few times but lost touch after she graduated. 4 years later (!!!) Taylor was moving to Greenville and reached out as I had just moved there, and we became inseparable! She is a ball of fun and we love any time we spend with her and her husband, John.
Derek Marsh
Groomsman
Derk, we have combed the streets of Knoxville for Dairy Queen Blizzards more than anyone in history I can assume. Always down for a random adventure, and I'm glad you'll be on this adventure with me.
Lauren Lyon
Bridesmaid
The little sister I never had, Lauren! Our dads have been best friends since elementary school so Lauren and I grew up side by side and have been through all of life's big moments together. She is so special to me!
Steven Bowman
Groomsman
Quid aka Steven - we met randomly, and man did it turn into something. I truly believe we got to experience a million different experiences that I couldn’t remake. Brunches and living life, you are the standard.
Emily Weseman
Bridesmaid
Emily is Beau's older sister, and my future sister-in-law! She is a boss babe Neonatal Nurse Practitioner and momma to our beautiful nieces.
Adam Bridges
Groomsman
AB, The Face to my Hannibal. We always schemed and “Loved it when a plan came together”. You're the starter of my hobbies, and I like to think of myself as a consultant of yours.
Chris Wilson
Groomsman
Words can’t do you justice... to be honest Ernest Hemingway probably couldn’t do you justice. You’re a piece and I’m a piece and that’s probably why we meshed. Let’s keep this train rolling.
Travis Ricker
Groomsman
T-money - We’ve been through the worst experiences in my life (swimming in leachate), to the best (beating a burger challenge) together. Just know you’re the Mario to my Luigi.
Eddie Savage
Groomsman
Dad, what can I say, you’re Dad. I love you and you’re the best man I’ve ever met. You’ve been completely selfless my entire life, and I could be lucky to grow into half the man that you are.
