Wedding Party

Hunter Prior

Groom

Jhenilynn Stone

Bride

Michael Dean

Best Man

Michael and I first met my freshman year of college at Alfred University while playing a game of ping pong in the dorm's lobby. We both quickly learned that we watched the same shows growing up, played the same games, and had a lot in common in one another. Whether it was trying to become the very best like no one ever was in Pokemon, or throwing passes to each other in ultimate frisbee, Mike and I have always had each others' back.

Richelle Draper

Maid of Honor

It all started in third grade in the most bizarre way possible. I was the new, shy kid who just moved into the area. Nervous of all of the new faces in the class and into a new state I haven't lived in before, I went to the bathroom to get away. In the stall next to me, I heard Richelle say, in a strange voice, "I can hear you pee." I ignored her and quickly left the bathroom, thinking to myself how she was a weirdo. Somehow, she and I became best friends after that strange encounter and have been close since then. Since I was eight, Richelle has been there through every part of my life and I will always be grateful for that.

Brandon Prior

Groomsman

Brandon and I have both taught each other a lot. I am extremely proud of him for his accomplishments in school. I have had the honor of having him not only as a brother but also as a shooting partner and a competitive team mate. Brothers always look out for each other, and that is why I will beat up anyone who messes with him.

Rachel Draper

Bridesmaid

I met Rachel through Richelle. I unfortunately can not say that I had an embarrassing first impression of Rachel like I did with her sister Richelle. Regardless, these past 13 years of our friendship has been so amazing. Rachel and I have been through so much together. I know that if I ever need anything, I can go to Rachel.

Tyler Prior

Groomsman

While Tyler and I may have tried to beat each other up in the past, he always made sure to let me know that he can win. I am blessed to have him as my baby brother. I am proud of him for his accomplishments in school at Hilberton College. Tyler has taught me much as I have grown up, such as how to install Java, how to fix a printer, and "how to shoot a muzzle-loader". I know that both him and Brandon will excel at life.

Alivia Kelley

Bridesmaid

Being my younger sister, I can definitely come up with some embarrassing stories for "Stinky." However, I will save that for another time. Being about 3 and a half years apart in age, Alivia and I were and are close. Whether it be playing with barbies, playing pretend with house or school, beating up each other, or going shopping, Alivia and I were always doing things with each other. She was always my shadow when we were kids, and although I said the opposite, I loved every moment.

Elisabeth Dean

Bridesmaid

Elisabeth and I met in college through Hunter's best friend Michael (her husband). Since our friendship began, Elisabeth has always been someone I could go to for anything. She has such an encouraging, soft personality. She is someone I look up to as a friend especially with her strong faith and patience. She has helped me grow in my faith a lot since we met, and I appreciate that greatly.

Kathryn Lewis

Bridesmaid

Kathryn and I met in college and have become close. Although I have known her for the shortest amount of time out of everyone in the party, it feels as if I have known her forever. Kathryn's devotion to her faith and her love for others is incredible.

James Kelley

Junior Groomsman

While James and I may not have known each other for as long as some of my groomsmen, James and I have both realized that we have a common interest in video games. My first impression on James may not had been the best, since I was mining straight down in MineCraft, but we have both gotten over that day since then. I look forward to being a brother in-law to James in the future.

Alyssa Kelley

Junior Bridesmaid

Being my youngest sibling and born when I was 8 years old, Alyssa has helped me learn a lot about myself. She has shown me how to be patient, how to care for a child when she was younger, and what to do if your sibling calls 9-1-1 on you as a five-year-old for not putting a temporary tattoo on her (Yes- that happened). Although I have been the bossy older sister over the past 13 years, I love her very much.

Jason Tutak

Officiant

We first met Jason at InterVarsity Christian Fellowship at college where he and his wife, Summer, served as leaders of the group. He and his wife have impacted our lives greatly with their dedicated faith, selflessness, and wisdom over the last few years.
