Wedding Party

Annie Clash

Matron of Honor

My sister and absolute best friend:) Thank you for being by my side consistently and my favorite person to share a bunkbed with for so many years. Could not be more honored to have grown up with her and to have her as family. As many of you know, Annie has been an absolute rock in my life and loved me unconditionally even when I was so undeserving. Its truly because Annie never gave up on me that I know the Lord as my savior today. My sister knows me better than most and has been such a huge support for Shane and I during our relationship. She was the person that brought us flowers on our 11 months and always was willing to let us call her for godly advice. She is the kindest and wisest person I know, as well as my biggest role model. Annie has consistently loved Shane and I in so many big moments, and been a go to for us when we are seeking out wisdom. She is generous in her advice, care, and love!! Annie, you are my favorite person, my go to, and forever my partner in crime Here is to more calls in the rain when we are scared, harry potter obsessions, movie quotes, and game nights where we are too competitive. I adore you:)

Ryan Strennen

Best Man

Ryan dreams big and then finds a way to make it happen. From working on Wall Street to being my Halo partner, there's nothing this man can't do. He's the man I've looked up to since birth and the first person to help me in a time of need. Thank you for teaching me that dreams can be achieved.

Brooke Quillen

Maid of Honor

Brooke and I go all the way back to high school. While we weren't the closet friends in high school, we always enjoyed being on a cross country team together. In college we reconnected and started living with one another in 2021. I am so blessed to say Brooke was my roommate for three full years and I loved every moment. We shared three bedrooms, three closets, and three years of processing with one another through good and hard:) Through roadtrips, tears, powerpoint nights, and sharing our birthdays, there has never been a dull moment. The memories I adore most with Brooke are the random shows we would binge, our grocery shops, sitting in our room folding laundry, and cuddling on the couch :) Those may sound lame to others, but they are precious to me. Another gift has been having Brooke by my side during graduate school, as we have gotten to navigate that together as she works towards her PhD in O.T. Brooke, thank you for grounding me so often when I felt so hopeless in my own Master's program. Brooke you truly understand me better than most and are always my safe person in a crowded room that I find myself coming back to because I am seen and known and loved by you. Brooklyn, I adore you so much and your heart. I am so thankful for all the ways you love me and truly help me know the heart of Christ better. I couldn't be more grateful to have you has one of my best friends:)

Samuel Hoffman

Best Man

Mega man, mega bed, mega heart. Samuel has been one of my best friends since I met him 12 years ago. He's always been with me, from my highest moments to my lowest. He's the reason I ever came to Towson. Mine and Molly’s relationship also wouldn't have started if it hadn't been for him being the person Molly and I would both talk to about crushing on the other. Thank you for teaching me to be confident in myself (and for dealing with me and Molly).

Kate Mackin

Bridesmaid

Kate and I have been friends since 2020/2021. Similar to Lauren, Kate was on the list of Christian girls that I made once I became a Christian and was determined to hang out with. Kate was the first girl I hung out with and we sat at her apartment and watched an elevation concert:) Kate and I grew closer when were became neighbors at Somerset apartments and got to enjoy many movie nights, walks, trader joe runs, and the joy of being near one another. However, last year I got the absolute HONOR of living with Kate, which was one of the best things ever. Kate and I quickly bonded over our extremely stupid humor, joy of Instagram reels, feminist ideals, conversations about Christ, and binge watching every show possible ("I got your back girl....from right here"). Kate and I also learned we were both morning people who got excited to have 6 am deep conversations as she hurriedly backed her lunchbox with her reese cups as she got ready for work. Calls, facetimes, and watching the dumbest movies of all time are my favorite things to do with you Kate! Katelyn, I love you so much and I am so thankful that I am your friend. Thank you for loving me well and gently, for being there in some of my toughest moments, and truly getting so excited to know Shane as well. I couldn't do this day without you by my side!

Sam Harrison

Best Man

Sam has taught me so much about the person of Jesus. When I was first learning to walk with Jesus again, Sam was the man I asked a million and a half questions to and he answered every last one (Even like finding out Acts isn't spelled A-x-e). I always know that when I'm around Sam, it will either be the most fruitful time, or the goofiest time. Thank you for teaching me how Jesus can change everything about my life

Hannah Dunkerton

Bridesmaid

Hannah has been one of my best friends since college and encouraged me SOOO much in my walk with the lord. We became closer as friends as we chose to be accountability buddies in many areas of our lives that we both struggled with and felt comfortable to discuss with one another. Hannah and I also got to live together last year and what a HUGE blessing it was. I adore this girl on every level and look up to her in so many ways!! What a sweet gift it was to wake up for a year and hang out on the couch with Hannah and my coffee. Hannah, we have so many memories of girl trips, binging shows, going to cali, puppy yoga, and so many more I treasure. Hannah you are one of the kindest people I know with the biggest and most generous heart! Thank you for listening to my overly long voice messages and allowing me to eat all your baked goodies. Thank you for being my sweet friend, confidant, go-to, safe person, and personal nurse with all my medical questions haha. Han Han, I couldn't be more thankful to you for your friendship and all the ways you have loved Shane and I so so well. Love you tons!

Adam Baldridge

Groomsman

Baja Blast, The Walking Dead, Roll Tide. Need I say more? Adam is one of the most considerate and joyful people I know. From helping me process so many life decisions to getting me into the greatest sport on Earth (golf), Adam has always been there for me. Thank you for teaching me that trusting in the Lord can lead to many great things

Lauren Kuda

Bridesmaid

Lauren has been a steadfast friend for me since around 2020/2021. When I first became a Christian, I made a list of Christian girls I wanted to spend time with. Lauren was on this list and was actually the first person to help me purchase my "big girl bible". Lauren is so caring, kind, generous, and makes me laugh harder than most people I know. Lauren, you have been there for me in my best and worst moments- we have laughed, cried, and worshipped Jesus together and I am so thankful. Here are to more silly moments like seeing a cow in a pond, our fear of hippos, breaking my nail in your car, and girls trips. Spending hours in a car with you always feels like it goes by in seconds! You are someone that makes me feel valued in every conversation, and braver even when it comes to our shared fear of elevators because of all the ways you validate me haha. Thank you sweet Lala for being someone I feel 100% myself with all the time. Lauren truly has a special gift of making those around her feel seen and appreciated! Here is to more core memories together! Thank you for loving Shane and I so so well over the past few years! I love you!

Danny Van Natta

Groomsman

From rainy rounds of Golf to screaming during Ravens games together, Danny makes any situation a fun time. He's the most generous person I know and always goes out his way to make me feel included and cared about. Thank you for teaching me how to love with my whole heart.

Gracie Jordan

Bridesmaid

Gracie and I became friends around 2019 when we met in our dorm room that was right across from each other. I remember calling my mom to tell her about the Christian girls I had met and really hoped to be friends with (her and becca). Gracie was so kind, loving, and patient with me as I was living for myself at the time and didn't want to believe in God. However, I also noticed there was something different about her- that she held a real joy and I wanted it. Fast forward, Gracie supported me so much as I became a Christian in 2021 and truly became a safe place for me. I had the absolute honor of living with G from 2021-2023. Gracie, late nights of cuddles, beach yoga, making hot coco, doing random dances, car rides, binging shows that you explained to me, and conversations about the Lord meant the world to me. You have been one of the most intentional friends I have ever had and I still remember the night I cried about liking Shane to you. You have loved and supported us so well over the past few years and I couldn't be more thankful for you. Your heart has helped me understand Christ exponentially more because of all you have taught me. I can't wait to have you by my side on this day! I love you!

Parker Martin

Groomsman

Parker is the king of spontaneity and adventure. Any time with him is gonna be a fun one whether it's kickers at Roundtop or a good conversation in the car. Yet in his adventurous personality, he's also extremely thoughtful and loyal to those around him. Thank you for teaching me to go out and enjoy life.

Alyssa Pardoe (Hoffman!!)

Bridesmaid

Alyssa and I have a sweet friendship that started around 2021 when she moved out of her apartment with 3 girls, that I happened to move in with. We called this apartment the honeycomb, and ourselves the bees! Alyssa bought me a little bee key chain to welcome me into the apartment as she headed to graduate school in London. However, we started sending voice messages and growing closer. I am so thankful to say I got to visit Alyssa in London once during her two years there and grew so much closer with her when she came home. Alyssa has become one of my safe people and someone that has truly encouraged me so so much in my walk with Christ and my relationship with Shane. She has modeled what a healthy Christian relationship looks like with Samuel, as well as loved me when I am at my lowest moments. Alyssa, saying you are one of my favorite people is an understatement. You are one of the first people I want to call when I am excited about something and one of the best people to sit with when I am in need of prayer. Thank you for always loving Shane and I so well and navigating the craziness of engagement season with me. Having you in this season with me is truly a gift from the Lord! I can't wait to have you next to me on this day! I love you!

Drew Bennett

Groomsman

A man of wisdom, bourbon enthusiast, and the only guy who can turn an engagement photoshoot into a theological discussion. Drew knows the biblical story like no other and has been such a guide in my spiritual walk. Thank you for teaching me that the bible isn't just black and white, but a whole lot of grey that's meant to be wrestled with.

Becca Baldridge

Bridesmaid

Becca and I have been friends since 2019 when I first started at Towson University:) I am so grateful that the Lord was so kind to put Becca and Gracie (twin sisters) across the dorm from me. I didn't know anyone going to Towson and they were the first people I met. From there I grew a wonderful relationship with Becca and Gracie who helped me understand the heart of Jesus better. Becca and I became fast friends as we did young life club together and formed our friend group! Then in 2021, I had the honor of becoming her roommate at our little apartment in towson that we called the Honeycomb. We got to live together for two years, which was full of movie nights, game nights, milkshake runs, big joys and big losses. We have gotten to sit with each other in our hardest and best moments, and I am so so thankful! During our second year, Becca got engaged and it was an absolute joy to be along side her and Adam in their engagement and wedding. Its an honor to have Becca stand beside me in my wedding now! Becca is one of the kindest, sweetest, and strongest people I know. She has a heart that cares for those in need, matches my love for any dog ever, and has an extremely competitive board game side to her:) Love you so much B! Thank you for all the ways you helped me grow in my faith! So excited for us to make more memories:)

Holly Dallford

Bridesmaid

Holly and I have been friends since we were 4 or 5 years old. We met at a thing called Pioneer girls (knockoff girlscouts) that my family's church had. We were friends but became bestfriends once my family started attending the church around age 7/8. Holly and I got up to all sorts of trouble as we switched name tags and thought we were so funny. Through many church talent shows, church camps, family losses, music videos, trips to Colorado, concerts, and even Holly's wedding, she has been such a wonderful, loyal friend to me. Holly, I absolutely adore you and the way you have always loved me as a sister. Holly is intentional, hilarious, kind, strong, sweet, brave, and one of the best people I know. We definitely have been with each other through hard and good, and I couldn't be more thankful to have you by my side on this special day. Thanks for being my bffaeae/s forever sweet girl! Holly, its an honor to have you by my side on this special day!! I love you!!
