Christian & Connor
Wedding Party
Aundrea Eastman
Maid of Honor
Aundrea and Christian have been friends since they were little. They grew closer in high school and have been best friends ever since. Aundrea keeps Christian grounded. She tells her when to fix her face in public and when she should apologize because she was in the wrong. Aundrea’s friendship is valued and irreplaceable.
Mary Beth Parkinson
Bridesmaid
Mary Beth and Christian are cousins and 2 months apart. They have always been attached at the hip since they were little. They may be cousins but they are more like sisters. From playing in the creek behind the apartments to going out on the town, they have fun in whatever they do. Christian is very proud of all of Mary Beth’s accomplishments and looks forward to what she will accomplish next! Mary Beth is currently in Esthetician school and will be doing Christian’s make up on her wedding day.
Mary Jayne Parkinson
Bridesmaid
Mary Jayne and Christian are also cousins but that doesn’t define their relationship at all. They support each other like best friends and fight like sisters. Mary Jayne is an amazing mom and also knows how to have fun with the girls. As they have gotten older, they have grown closer. Christian and Mary Jayne confide in each other and always lift each other up (unless we’re playing Taboo, then it’s every man for himself). Mary Jayne is the mother of Brynlee Maisey, one of the flower girls and Christian’s niece.
Hayley Nichols
Bridesmaid
Hayley was Christian’s “Big” in Delta Zeta her freshman year at ASU. Hayley and Christian hit it off instantly. Hayley was a supportive friend when Christian needed it most. She stuck by her even though it was a rough ride. They came out closer than ever and now they get to stand next to each other on their big days! Christian is excited to be Hayley’s Maid of Honor on her big day later in the year!
Sydney Watts
Bridesmaid
Sydney and Christian met at Shannon Medical Center. Christian thought Sydney was shy and quiet but boy was she wrong! Sydney and Christian grew very close in the short amount of time that they had known each other. They did “adult” things together like grocery shop and work out, but they made it enjoyable. Sydney moved back to Utah approximately 2 years ago, but they have kept their long distance friendship strong with many FaceTime calls! Christian has been known as “Aunt Christmas” to her 2 daughters, Emery and Blake, both flower girls in our wedding.
Graham Smith
Best Man
Graham and Connor met when Graham was pledging Pike. They grew closer while attending ASU and eventually became best friends and roommates. While Graham was going through the Academy, he would come home and “practice” his moves on Connor. Graham is now a Sherrif’s Deputy and has a beautiful family.

From their first ultrasound and hearing their heart beats, to traveling to Utah for their 2nd birthday. Christian is known as “Auntie Christmas” to the girls. They may look alike to some but their personalities are special and unique. We can’t wait for you to see them shine on our Wedding Day!
