Wedding Party

John Holden

Groom

John and Ashlee met in October after matching on tinder, yes that's right, tinder. They ended up not talking again until July and John denied every attempt of Ashlee's to get him to socialize with her friends, when he finally ran out of excuses he was over 24/7, after a week in Florida they realized they didn't want to be apart anymore because "that shit sucked." They celebrated their 3 month anniversary in Hawaii on the most beautiful trip which started the desire to travel everywhere together. "John has my exact sense of humor, we are almost always on the same page and if not we work on it till we get there. We have had some ups and down but I'm so thankful to still have this connection I do with him. He lets me know every day how loved I am, he has been there through my sickest months, surgery's and endless overtime being so compassionate and helpful. He is truly so selfless with me and I'm blessed to have a man to think of and care for me in the ways he does. I'm happy to have my best friend become my husband and father of my children, he's given me a loving second family and I cant wait to grow old and see the rest of the world with him."

Rebecca Mcdonald

Maid of Honor

Becca and Ashlee met in middle school and have been close friends since. After college Ashlee begged Becca to move to Arkansas and they lived together for 2 years "making bank and getting bitches." One of those "bitches" happen to be John thus ruining the most perfectly balanced household. "Becca is definitely my soulmate, I cant even describe the amount of love and understanding I have for her. We communicate and understand each other so well I've truly never gotten along with a person like that before. Also we can telepathically communicate or whatever, no biggie. My memories of Becca is nothing but laughter, comfort, and love. Some of my best moments in life I've experience with her by my side and I'm so thankful to have her here celebrating John and I. Forever thankful for the sister that has been placed in my life.”

Tiara Abernathy

Bridesmaid

Tiara and Ashlee met at work about 5 years ago, although they didn't become friends right away they bonded over shitty guys and became close. Over the years Ashlee was welcomed to family holidays, birthdays and vacations. She took a trip to Vegas with T, T's father Scott, and John. It was one she will never forget, the memories made on that trip will have her laughing for decades. They worked every weekend together and spent the days off together. Even went through pregnancy together. "T and I have been friends for a long time, I've never gotten so close with someone that fast before. She got me out of the house and into the clubs then into motherhood. I remember getting of work and going over to her house to nap with her, that was the simplicity to our friendship, just being there. She welcomed me with open arms and has been there through my journey of being a better person. I'm happy to have her standing up there with us to celebrate our family."
