Matron of Honor
Shannon is my older sister, and I'm proud to have asked her to be my maid of honor. We grew up close and shared a room, pets, schools, clothes (even though she didn't know:), adventures and catastrophes. She helped me get my job that allowed me to move up to Portland and we lived close by most of our life until several years ago when she moved to North Carolina in seek of better weather.
Best Man
Chase truly is my best man and my best friend. He has stuck by my side through it all. I met Chase when I started working for Les Schwab. I knew from day one he would be my companion for life ;) Most people do not get the chance to have that one guy that will always be there. The person who know matter what will always give it to you straight. No matter how far or how distant life may take us......he will always be my special someone.
Bridesmaid
Natalie and I met at my work where I was her mentor a few years ago. We hit it off as friends very quickly and before I knew it I asked her to move in with me to my office and be my office partner. We are literally the same person and some how get along great:) We talk a million times a day. We love traveling together and shopping and learning all we can to better ourselves.
Groomsman
Justin and I first met at our first annual Halloween party. I remember seeing this guy walking in dressed up like a reggae person. He definitely has that infectious personality. With the girls being close to each other Justin and I naturally gravitated to each other. He has a very competitive side which has drawn me. I am also competitive by nature. Although he may school me at basketball and most every other sport I think I can take him at Corn hole. Justin is a fantastic person and I am lucky to know him.
Bridesmaid
Karla and I met about 9 years ago when our boys were in cub scouts together and we have been close friends ever since. I was spoiled for a little while with her living in the same neighborhood. She is an amazing cook and I look forward to our dinners together (with her cooking of course). I enjoy our massages and facials together to get some down time. We travel and camp together and are there for all the special moments in each other's lives.
Groomsman
I have known Dusty almost my entire life. Growing up I pushed my way into my sisters friend circle. Of course who doesn't want to hang out with people older then them. I have always looked up to Dusty like an older brother. I learned a lot from him over the years and am grateful for that.
Bridesmaid
Ryan is David's sister. She has been a blast to hang out with and get to know better over the years. She is funny and caring and fits in with my friends like she has always been there. It's nice to have an extra sister around.
Groomsman
Jon is the best brother-in-law a guy could ask for. He definitely has a special place in my heart. I remember when my sister and him first met, he never treated me like her younger brother, more like one of his own friends. Jon is one of those people you can talk to about anything and he will actually listen. On top of that he will give you good feed back. Having that in my younger years was awesome.
Bridesmaid
Elicia and I met at work as I was her mentor and we have been great friends since. We spend many days hanging out, traveling together, family dinners, going to the property camping (we own land next to each other in Central Oregon) .Elicia and her family have quickly became extended family to us. She has taught me how to wake surf on her boat year after year (I try but I can't stay up long) . She often gives me daily advice and keeps me sound.
Groomsman
Brandon has been a close friend from day one. I met him and his wife Elicia the same day I met Jen. They have both become very close friends to me. Brandon has always been there. He is the friend you can call at any time and he will drop what he is doing to come help. Jen first introduced me to him and I thought to my self I need to make my self look big. So I puffed up my chest and tried to shake his hand...lol It was like David and Golieth. In all seriousness I am thankful to call Brandon a brother.
Bridesmaid
I have known Sarah for about 20 years or so. I trained her at Burger King where we worked through high school. We quickly became friends and spent many days together even though we went to different high schools and were different ages. We have had fun traveling together over the years. She moved away to Washington and became a teacher however we have stayed in contact through the years and make time to visit each other often. She was there in the delivery room with me for Cameron and is Cameron's godmother. When we see each other no matter the time frame we pick up right where we left off.
Flower Girl
Makenna is Chase & Ashley's daughter. David has known her since she was born. She has such an amazing personality and a smile that lights up the room. She loves to dress up like a princess and take pictures. We are very blessed to have them as part of our extended family and can't wait for Makenna to share our special moment with us.
Usher
Cameron is Jennifer's 17 year old son. He is a Boy scout, and has a love for animals, sports , specifically the Trail Blazers and outdoors. He will be walking his godmother Sarah down the isle.
Ring Bearer
Austin is David's son. He is 8 years old and excited to be part of the wedding and have the big role to carry the rings down the isle. Austin loves the outdoors, including rocks, and all things bugs.
