Our Gang

We are thrilled to introduce our amazing wedding party, a wonderful group of family and friends who have supported us throughout our journey and will stand by us on our special day!

Amanda Smith

Matron of Honor

Amanda is my matron of honor because she’s more than just a friend; she’s like a sister. She has been by my side since day one, literally! From staying up all night talking, to our countless travels around the country together, she knows me inside and out. Her unwavering love has seen me through some of my toughest moments, and I can’t imagine this journey without her by my side. Amanda’s knowledge of me and her honest opinion make her the perfect partner in planning my big day. I’m so grateful to have her standing with me as I take this exciting step in my life. I love you!

Brooklyn Bartholomew

Bridesmaid

Brooke is my bridesmaid because she has been the greatest friend a girl could ask for. Since the day she came into Joe's and my lives she has been our biggest supporter and fan. Her laughter is absolutely contagious and can brighten even my darkest days. I love how she embraces every crazy adventure we plan and always has my back when it counts. I know having her by my side will make this journey even more special. I can’t imagine saying “I do” without her.

Makayla Harper

Bridesmaid

Makayla is a bridesmaid because she’s one of my closest friends and always brings a fun and loving energy to everything she's involved in. I first met Makayla when she was one of my co-workers at Jellystone park. I still remember the moment that started our whole friendship. We drove a golf cart down a trail that we were not supposed to and got stuck in the mud. From that moment on I knew she would be in my life for a long time and always down to get into trouble with me! I know she’ll bring a fun and exciting vibe to the wedding planning process and having her by my side on the big day will make it even more enjoyable and special.

Aline Tillinghast

Bridesmaid

Aline is a bridesmaid because she has been an incredible part of my life and an amazing addition to our family. She doesn't just hold the title of my sister-in-law but she is one of my sorority sisters and I couldn't be happier to call her my "sista-sista"! Her kindness, humor, and friendship have made a significant impact on me, and I cherish our forever bond. Having her by my side on my wedding day means the world to me, as we celebrate not just my marriage, but also the beautiful connection we share as sisters.

Laura Baxter

Bridesmaid

Laura is a bridesmaid because she’s not only my soon to be sister-in-law, but also a wonderful friend who has been there for me whenever I need. From our two person book club to our heart-to-heart chats, she brings warmth and laughter to every moment we share. I admire her strength and kindness, and I know she’ll bring a positive energy to the wedding planning process. Having Laura by my side on the big day means a lot to me, as we celebrate both my marriage and the special bond we are getting as becoming family. I’m excited to create lasting memories together as sisters!

Lilian Smith

Flower Girl

Lily was one of the easiest picks for being a flower girl because she holds a very special place in my heart, and I’ve loved watching her grow into the bright, curious little person she is today. She was the first person who blessed me with the title of "Aunt Bookie". From being there for her first steps to her endless laughter and smiles, every moment with her has been truly a joy. It’s so meaningful to have her by my side on this special day, and I’m excited to create a beautiful memory together that we’ll cherish forever. Aunt Bookie loves you so much!

Zoey Smith

Flower Girl

Zoey Smith is more than just my maid of honor’s baby—she’s a little bundle of joy, and having her at the wedding feels like the most natural thing in the world. Her mom has been by my side through so much, and now seeing her step into motherhood with such grace and love makes Zoey feel like an extension of that bond. Including her in our day was one of the easiest things to decide on. I know she’ll bring smiles, giggles, and maybe a few adorable distractions that make the day even more memorable. I cant wait to watch you grow baby girl!
