James & Grace
Wedding Party
Jessica Blatzheim
Maid of Honor
Jessie and I were seated next to each other on our first day of 6th grade, and instantly our friendship just clicked! I had recently switched not only schools, but school districts, and Jessie was a great friend to me in that she made me feel welcome and helped me find my way around. Ever since, Jessie and I have been best friends, and we are even pursuing our dream of becoming Elementary School Teachers together! I knew as soon as Jamie popped the question that Jessie would be the perfect Maid of Honor for our wedding!
Braeden Swain
Best Man
I genuinely don't even remember meeting Braeden, yet it feels as though we've been friends for a lifetime (in reality, though, it's been about 10 years). Always able to crack a joke, and always willing to take one. Braeden and Jamie's relationship is one that even Grace gets jealous of from time to time.
Megan Moriarty
Bridesmaid
Megan was also introduced to me in 6th grade when I started attending Southern Delaware School of the Arts! We have so much in common, from our love for playing the piano, to our Christian values, the list goes on and on! Some of our favorite things to do when we are together is sunbathe, watch sappy romance movies, and go on bike rides.
Nick Haney
Groomsman
An absolute car genius, Nick and I clicked at Grace's senior prom where we were discussing the 2006 Corvette that I took Grace to the dance in. It certainly helped that Nick's date was Jessie - Grace's Maid of Honor - and Nick and I have been buddies every since.
Evan Hartnett
Bridesmaid
Where to even begin with Evan... she is my true partner in crime! We met at Clear Space Theatre in Rehoboth, which in many ways has been our second home. Evan and I quickly became close after constantly being paired together in shows, specifically anytime a big dance number was involved! She witnessed every stage of Jamie and I's relationship and has always been a good sport anytime I go rambling on about him. Some of my fondest memories with Evan include weekends at the Marina, theatre summer camps, and dancing in our favorite shows together!
Anthony Riddle
Groomsman
Anthony, and I have spent the past 3 years working together between different jobs, Vineyard Vines, and working as Beach Umbrella Boys in Rehoboth Beach. Him being my younger brother, it's crazy to think of him looking up to me, when in reality I have to physically look up to him. Anthony has always been a huge supporter of my relationship with Grace, having accompanied us on our earliest dates to Lefty's and the Movie Theater. Always up for a late night chat, or a drink and a cigar, it's a no brainer to have Anthony next to me and send Grace and I on our life together.
Maria Grace Riddle
Bridesmaid
Apart from sharing a name, Grace and I have a lot in common! We both love to dance and be goofy, and you could say we are completely obsessed with Chick-Fil-A. It's crazy to think that when Jamie and I first started dating 3 years ago, she only came up to my shoulder! Now I look up to her in more ways than one!
Nathanael Riddle
Groomsman
Nathanael - Nate - has been there for me since literally day 1. My only older sibling, he's been alongside me since the beginning, and why should this day be any different.
AnnaClaire Riddle
Bridesmaid
AnnaClaire has always been Jamie & I's biggest cheerleader. In the months that led up to our one year anniversary, she would write us letters talking about how happy she was that we found each other so young. Her support and love is always in abundance, so of course I wanted her standing next to me on the big day!
Gabriel Riddle
Groomsman
Gabriel and I worked together for Lynam Beach Service as Beach Umbrella Boys for 3 years too, and Gabe is always down to hit the beach and ride the waves whenever we're able to. Having accompanied Grace and I on our earliest dates as well, he's really seen our relationship progress in every phase we've been through. He also always knows exactly how to kick my butt when we play video games (but I get him back every now and then).
