Maid of Honor
Ellen (whom I call Ellie) is my gorgeous cuzfriend. She has always been more like a sister to me. Ellie is always there for me no matter what, and nobody on earth can make me laugh as hard as she can.
Best Man
I first met Brandon when he moved to Michigan for work. I found that we had so much in common and we soon became good friends. Since then he has been an overwhelmingly positive influence in my life. His attention to detail, outgoing nature and love of physical fitness have help me foster the same characteristics in myself. I'm grateful to have him as my best man.
Matron of Honor
Tara is one of my absolute best friends. She just “gets” me. She is also now my cousin by marriage! Tara is my travel and adventure buddy, we’ve been to multiple states and even multiple countries together!
Groomsman
I had the pleasure of meeting Gaige when I joined the Lumen Christi cross country team. He helped make the grueling practice schedule bearable. As life went on, we were roommates at GVSU and later co-workers for a brief time before he began pursuing his passion in video. His clutch Leona main, excellent fashion sense and positive attitude are qualities I've always admired in him.
Bridesmaid
Kristen is another one of my best friends. We joke that she and I are life partners, since our actual life partners spend so much time together. She is another friend that is always there for me, and is always willing to offer advice or a helping hand.
Groomsman
Like many of my groomsmen, my relationship with Alex was forged in the fires of JV cross country. After college, when I began work in Ann Arbor, we met again has co-workers and housemates. His quick wit and diligence have appealed to me throughout the years. I'm appreciative to find Alex amongst my groomsmen.
Bridesmaid
Ryn is my beignet bestie, and of of my absolute best friends. She is my voice of reason when I am being completely unreasonable, as well as the friend I go to when there are super cute animals that need to be pet! I miss her like crazy now that she lives in Kansas, but I know that every time we see each other, it will be like no time has passed at all.
Groomsman
Dan has been a good friend of mine for years, since (you guessed it) JV cross country. His house was always the hangout spot when we were growing up. Many a late night were spent playing video games of one form or another. Later on, we became roommates in college, then coworkers and housemates. He has since pursued his passion with plants and has become a professional plant father. I'm pleased to have him as my friend and groomsman.
Bridesmaid
Sammy was a lifesaver for me when we both lived in Texas, and continues to be to this day. I know that I can always reach out to her for advice or help with anything, from hair color to fashion, to life advice and occasional gossip.
Groomsman
I've had a friendship with Dan since my days at Lumen. Since then, he has pursued a career as a journalist for the Catholic Times. I've always enjoyed listening to his spirited discussions regarding world history. Throughout our relationship, he has always been insightful, entertaining and kind. I'm lucky to count him my groomsmen.
Bridesmaid
Caity is one of the very, very few people that I am still close with from middle/high school. She and I have been through the Catholic School gauntlet together, and somehow both managed to survive
Groomsman
My brother, Colton. Growing up, we were frequently the only two kids in the neighborhood. So, we often had to entertain ourselves. He has since started several online businesses, including a rather successful Youtube channel. His business acumen and ingenuity grateful and proud to have him as a brother.
Bridesmaid
Margaret is another one of my beautiful cuzfriends. We are (slightly less than) a year apart in age, and have grown up together, whether we wanted to or not! Despite a few rough patches in our youth, we have always been there for each other, even if we are rolling our eyes at each other the whole way.
Groomsman
Bridesman
Mason is my "cuztwin", not just a cuzfriend. We have incredibly similar mannerisms and senses of humor, and are very good at completing each others' sentences when we get together in person. I know that whenever I find a super cool rock, I can always count on Mason to share my excitement, which is a very rare, but important trait to find these days.
Bridesmaid
Rowan is my niece, as well as my Goddaughter. I have watched her grow up right before my eyes, even living with her at one point. She has grown into a beautiful, and kind human, and I couldn't be more proud of her.
