Wedding Party

Emilee Ivie

Matron of Honor

Emilee is Caroline's older sister, and asked Caroline to be her Maid of Honor when she got married in November, 2018. Now it's time to return the favor! These sisters share everything, from giggle fits to clothes (whether willingly or not...) to loving memories and snuggles.

Maranda Hawkins

Groomswoman

Maranda is Taylor's younger sister, headed to the wedding from her traveling life on-the-go. We just wonder if she and Doug will drive to the wedding in their custom-built RV...!

William Lemp

Bridesman

William is Caroline's older brother, and asked Caroline to officiate his wedding to Stephanie in June 2017! We're excited to have both my siblings standing up there with their toes in the sand on our special day.

Ethan Hawkins

Groomsman

Ethan is Taylor's younger brother. Although one of his many talents is a being a world-renowned wedding DJ, Ethan won't be our musical talent since he will be standing up next to Taylor on our big day!

Becca Margolis

Maid of Honor

After meeting in college, studying abroad in Chile, traveling around the world together, and now living only a few miles apart, Becca and Caroline have become inseparable. Usually, they can only spend a few days apart at a time! Caroline can't wait to stand up there with Becca next to her, and hear what stories she'll share in her speech...

Alex Rhodes

Best Man

Alex and Taylor met in college and have been inseparable ever since. Although we live in different parts of the country, we still find any time we can to celebrate our friendship. He has been such a big part of my life who has taught me about friendship, compassion, and love. This man has been the best man since day one. Also, he's a killer dancer, so watch out, he'll be bringing the life of the party.

Emily Huekler

Bridesmaid

Starting at 10 years old, Emily and Caroline have been making each other laugh and following each other around the country. From growing up in St. Louis together, to overlapping in Washington DC in their early twenties, and now back to St. Louis, we can't wait to have Emily and her husband Rob join us on the beach.

Christian Wacker

Groomsman

We have been best friends from grade 2 until now. We've done just about everything from graduating elementary school, staying up too late watching HBO, sharing the main stage, rooming together in college, and everything in between. Christian lives with his amazing wife, Bailey, in Chicago where they have made a home together. He is sure to light up any room he finds himself in and we are more than excited to have him in our wedding party.

Malisa Andrews

Bridesmaid

Malisa and her husband Jim welcomed Caroline with open arms as her adopted-family out of college. Jim and Caroline met while working at a military base in Virginia, and after he introduced her to his wife, Malisa, and kids, Colin, Kailynn and Chloe, they have been both best friends and family ever since. The whole clan will be at the wedding -- the girls will be flower girls, and the rest tearing up the dance floor!

Alex Eickhoff

Groomsman

We met in college and became best friends through our love of performing and singing. Although we live on opposite sides of the state, Alex and I will be lifelong friends who won't let distance or time get in our way. Alex will sure show everyone how to have a good time and I'm sure he'll be tearing up the dance floor all night.

Abby Albers

Bridesmaid

Beautiful Abby came into my life through Taylor! She is my STL ride-or-die friend, my neighbor, puppy-mama cohort and my business partner at @AlteraLuxe. We are proof that amazing friends can come into your life, even later in your life, and make an impact that lasts forever. When we aren't hitting up the farmer's market or drinking wine at each other's houses, you can find us laughing and giggling and making candles.

Andrew King

Groomsman

We met in college much like a few of my other groomsmen. Andrew and I became best friends through our love of music and performance. He now lives in LA pursuing a career in music entertainment and we are so excited he is making the trek to share this happy day with us.

Kevin Murphy-Spooner

Bridesman

Best friends from graduate school, Kevin and Caroline are not only inseparable but also work together, play tennis together, and travel together all the time! We know Kevin will spend the whole weekend making everyone laugh and be silly.

Blake Hernton

Ceremony Musician

Blake is going to be performing at our ceremony with his sultry music and amazing talents. We are insanely lucky to have him in our life and share his music with us! Keep an eye out for the cute man with a violin case walking around.

Paul Murphy-Spooner

Officiant

When Paul and Kevin got married in 2017, they asked Caroline to officiate their ceremony in Des Moines, Iowa. We love the idea of going full circle, and having both men be with us on our wedding day; Kevin as one of Caroline's bridesmen, and Paul as our officiant. We know it will be so much more special with Paul leading us through the ceremony.

Kailynn & Chloe Andrews

Flower Girl
