Bride
I'm Jade, the bride to be, to my loveable fiancé Stephen. Despite the hectic process of planning a wedding, I couldn't be more excited to marry the love of my life! It's not something most can say they have done, so It is a pleasure to celebrate this leap of faith with all of you.
Groom
I'm Stephen, the groom to be to my beautiful fiancé and bride to be Jade Harris. I look forward to hosting all of our friends and family during this momentous time in both of our lives. We are both very excited to take this next step in our relationship and celebrate with all of you.
Maid of Honor
Meet the sweet twin sister to Jade and Maid of Honor, Amber. She is the best sister a girl could ask for. She has a soft spot for helping others and will often make others laugh with her quick witted comebacks/puns. She loves playing video games and watching movies. She works with Jade at Amelia: an IPsoft Company, where we assist customers internally with technological issues.
Bridesmaid
Meet Jade's long time best friend and the second Bridesmaid, Haley. A lot of high school friends moved away from Texas before collage, but not Haley. Back then, they were friends, but more acquaintances. However, over the next 4-5 years in college, their relationship grew and deepened to level they both knew could only be described as best friends! She's smart as a whip and will always be there for emotional support. Currently, she works at Texas Capital Bank as an Associate HR Business Partner.
Bridesmaid
Meet the epitome of sassy comebacks, Stephen's little sister, and Jade's third Bridesmaid Sarah. Sarah is a very talented animator and artist. She is passionate about her work and has a big heart for others. She especially has a heart for those who are lonely and are in need of a friend at the most critical of moments. She is very fiery and charismatic and has the ability to make people laugh with her constant barrage of sinical remarks. Take heed though, because like most Scorpios, Sarah can sting you like no one else can when provoked and use her hilarious sass at your expense!
Best Man
Meet Stephen's right hand man. Greg has been Stephen's best friend since high school and has always been there for him. He is currently finishing a Geology doctorate at Washington University, St. Louis. In his spare time he loves to go rock climbing and travel. Things like having bull sessions on random subjects like the annoyances of humanity, travelling/camping, and even bailing Stephen out in Honors Algebra and Physics in high school, are just a few things that makes Greg the best man!
Groomsman
Meet the green thumb himself, Stephen's little brother, and his 2nd groomsmen Connor. Connor is all about preserving the environment and finding ways to be more sustainable. He is quiet and easy going by nature but don't let him catch you not recycling or littering. Joking aside, he recently completed his Masters at Wageningen University & Research in the Netherlands. He is now spending his time teaching the next generation about sustainability and farming with AmeriCorps in southwest Colorado.
Groomsman
Meet the other Steven Hollis in our family. He is Stephen's younger cousin and will be his 3rd groomsmen. Adopted into our family at the age of 3, Steven has been through a lot of adversity in life and has took it all like a champ. Steven is very intelligent, technically inclined, and can tell you the innerworkings of just about anything. He currently works for Boeing, putting together fighter jets. Leave this guy alone and he may just dismantle your computer!
Father of the Bride
Meet Allen, the father of the bride. He spent his younger years in Arkansas where he met his beautiful wife Marla of 29 years. When Jade was growing up, he remembers always telling her she would meet someone special one of these days and they would have a wonderful life together. And now, that day has finally come. He's overjoyed to be apart of Jade and Stephen's wedding! Just know, if you see tears in his eyes when he walks his baby girl down the isle, he's happy not sad.
Mother of the Bride
Meet Marla, the Mother of the bride. Marla grew up all over, but she spent most of her life in Oklahoma, Texas, and Arkansas. She met her loving husband Allen and they have been married for 29 years. 5 years ago, her, Allen, and her daughters (Jade and Amber) had to move to Colorado for a job opportunity and she fell in love with the mountains, often wanting to hike. She's grateful for the move however and happy that Stephen and Jade found each other. She welcomes him (and his family) to the family!
Father of the Groom
Meet Mike, the father of the groom! Mike was born and raised in the Kansas City area where he grew up a Chief's fan, much to Stephen's disgust. He moved to southern California for work where he meet his wife Robin. After they got married, they decided to move away from SoCal and decided to plant roots in the Denver area, as they thought that Colorado would be a more suitable place to raise children. Shortly after moving to Colorado, Mike got his M.S. in Computer Science from CU Boulder. He is now currently working for a Denver area software company as a business architect, where he acts as a project liaison between clients and the companies software development team. In his spare time he likes travelling and listening to live music. He couldn't be happier for Jade and Stephen as they take this huge life step together.
Mother of the Groom
Meet Robin, the mother of the groom! Robin grew up in southern California, where she also met her loving husband Mike. Robin moved to the Denver area with Mike, as they thought that Colorado would be a more suitable place to raise children. Robin earned her nursing degree from Front Range Community College and has enjoyed a long and successful career as a registered nurse (RN). In her tenure, she has taken care of and touched the lives of many. Robin loves to travel and spend time having fun with her family. She couldn't be happier to be apart of Jade and Stephen's wedding and see them start a fruitful life together!
