Alyssa & Andrew
Wedding Party
Amber Howard
Maid of Honor
Although she's two years older, the bride would like to think she's the more wise and mature one :) The bride's guide to all things cool and best friend for the last 28 years.
Melea VanOstrand
Bridesmaid
Best friends since the bride taught Melela the most efficient method to tie her shoes when they were 5 years old. The bride is also the godmother of Melea's beautiful daughter, Tamera.
Brynne Swaim
Bridesmaid
Brynne and the bride have been best friends since kindergarten nap times, middle school plays and high school basketball. A twenty year friendship the bride cherishes very much.
Courtney Duke
Bridesmaid
Courtney is groom's little sister. The bride has known her since she was 15 years old and couldn't imagine getting married without her soon-to-be sister-in-law by her side.
Nykia Sizemore
Bridesmaid
Known affectionately by their friends as 'the meatballs', Nykia was one of the bride's first friends at Howard University. The two have very similar personalities, and the memories made in college and the years after always bring a smile to the bride's face.
Jennifer Serviss
Bridesmaid
Jennifer is the bride's best travel buddy. The two make an annual trip with the groom and Marshall (groomsman) around the world. The bride can always count on Jennifer for the best hypothetical conversations, stiff board game competition and budget savvy deals!
Matt Burnett
Best Man
Matt and the groom met in high school. They love going to concerts, taking trips to the casino and all things MMA. Looking forward to having Matt stand next to the groom on his biggest day.
Marshall White
Groomsman
The groom and Marshall met in high school. The two, along with bride and Melea, worked at Sparkling Image Carwash together. Marshall is the one that told the bride Drew had a crush on her nine years ago. :)
Dan Duke
Groomsman
Dan is the groom's brother-in-law. The groom and Dan love to play Ages of Empires and talk all things Game of Thrones related.
Troy Newkirk
Groomsman
The groom and Troy met working at UPS. The two bonded over their love for sports - especially Tom Brady and the Patriots.
James Howard
Groomsman
James is the bride's younger brother and the groom's soon-to-be brother-in-law. James lives in Atlanta and is a mortgage loan originator. Can't imagine having a wedding party without him!
Lance Howard
Groomsman
Lance is the bride's youngest brother and the groom's soon-to-be brother-in-law. He's a college student at IUPUI working towards his law degree. Perfect addition to the wedding party!
