Wedding Party
Katie Ray
Matron of Honor
Katie and Alana were instant best friends in 4th grade where they bonded over blue glittery chapstick, blue glittery roll-on body nonsense, and Bratz dolls (but don’t tell anyone). It was a strong foundation that quickly turned into an inseparable sisterhood and has now lasted 22 years - and counting! Although they live in different states now, their friendship always remains close. They feed off each other’s energy and it may come off as dramatic, but they’re just reliving all their inside jokes, dance routines, and stupid mistakes. When you witness a weird facial expression or hear a questionable saying/quote, it’s probably best to ignore and accept it. At least, that’s what Bryan and Hunter have learned! Don’t worry, their homemade dance routines from 8th grade will not be making an appearance at this wedding. You’re all welcome.
Rochelle Ramsey
Bridesmaid
Alana and Rochelle are cousins, but more like sisters! Growing up together, they’ve spent countless hours making synchronized swimming routines in the pool, getting called terrible nicknames by our older brothers (Alainer and Relish will live on forever), and endless nights talking while playing board games. They were fortunate to have each other through the years and are as close as cousins can be. This wedding wouldn’t be complete without Rochelle being part of it.
Meghan Marshall
Bridesmaid
Alana and Meghan have known each other for roughly 15 years and actually met through Meghan’s brother, Brandon. Eventually, Meg and Alana bonded over studying together in college and their friendship grew stronger each year until they both realized that singing and dancing (way too loudly for anyone within a mile radius) was a lot more fun than studying. Meghan has been an amazing friend to Alana from being there for jam sessions in the car to living together while Alana was finishing her degree. There’s something about the Marshall family that when they take you in, you’re part of the family. So fortunate to have Meghan be apart of this wedding (with the family there celebrating, too, of course).
Joey Preston
Best Man
Joey and Hunter are Brothers but also Best Friends. Growing up Hunter would follow his older brother around everywhere! They played the same sports, had the same interests and hobbies, and even had the same style (due to Hunter stealing Joey's stuff). Although there was the occasional sibling rivalry, Hunter looked up to Joey and wanted to be just like his older Brother. Fast forward, and not much has changed. The two spend countless weekends Hunting or Fishing, constantly talk about their sports teams, and get together often. This wedding would not be complete without Joey by Hunter's side.
Anthony Catalina
Groomsman
Hunter and Anthony are cousins, but have always been close friends. At any family gatherings, these two can be found by each other. Growing up, they played together, fought together, and occasionally got into a bit of trouble together. Hunter frequently went with their Grandparents to catch Anthony's Hockey games. In the summers, the two would ask their parents to meet up at Grandma and Grandpas house to spend the weekends together. They share the same love for hunting, fishing, and golf, and look forward to their time with family at Cool Lake each summer. They make a dangerous Euchre team that is known to upset the opposition. This wedding day wouldn't be the same without Anthony! Hunter and Alana are both grateful and happy that Anthony and his Wife Holly are able to make the trip!
Adam Curtis
Groomsman
Adam is Alana's older brother. Hunter and Adam first got to know each other when taking a family vacation out to Oregon. There they learned how similar their interests are with both being into the outdoors, sports, and making fun of Alana! They are excited to teach Braelynn how to play softball together this year, and look forward to getting to know each other more.
