Sarah & Jack
Wedding Party
Courtney Willcut
Maid of Honor
Sarah and Courtney started college at the same time and grew closer over the years. Through countless theatre productions, classes, and a trip to Scotland together, Sarah can always count on Courtney to be a solid, steady friend. This friendship was almost fated to be as their parents met and ran in the same circles at Faulkner only decades earlier. Courtney is always a voice of reason, and Sarah trusts Courtney with anything and everything. Sarah cannot imagine anyone else to share this day with as her Maid of Honor.
Matt Joiner
Best Man
Matt is Jack's dad. Matt is very excited about being Jack's best man, and certainly never talks about it. Jack owes his love for Star Wars, GI JOE, and hardcore punk music to Matt. Always Jack's confidant and voice of reason, Jack admires Matt's bravery and ability to get up each day and be the best person he can be for his family. He knows no one else that commits harder to their goals and ideals. Jack's parent's have always been his biggest supporters and greatest friends.
Cara Bowen
Bridesmaid
Cara Faye is Sarah Mae's older sister. With names that rhyme, Sarah was Cara's little shadow (for about five years, then the younger one showed up). Cara took Sarah to her first concert, taught her how to cook, shared some of the best music, informed her love of cats, and taught her how to be brave and stand up for what's best for yourself. Cara has been Sarah's role model for as long as she can remember, and Sarah is honored to have someone like Cara beside her on Sarah's most important day thus far.
Hayden Spence
Groomsman
Jack and Hayden have been best friends since high school, and have stuck together through their most formative years. They have been each others closest source of advice and reassurance, hyping each other up over their various hobby projects. Despite living in different parts of Tennessee, the two talk everyday and make sure to spend time playing games, painting, and making each other watch tv shows and youtube. Jack is honored to call Hayden his best friend, and could not ask for a better companion.
Melanie Bowen
Bridesmaid
Melanie is Sarah's younger sister. Growing up, there was plenty of laughter, tons of sharing, and a little commiserating along the way. As they've grown older, Sarah and Melanie have learned to lean on each other and to forgive for the many play-fights that sometimes felt too real. Sarah loves being a guide for Melanie to turn to as she grows up and navigates the life before her.
Trey Bailey
Groomsman
Jack and Trey met at S&B after joining the company post graduation. Both were nervous but quickly became a tall/short henchman duo. They bonded over their loves for D&D and script analysis. The two, along with Tyler, would talk about plays and world history for hours while building sets. Jack is in constant admiration of Trey's spirit and deep ways of thinking.
Emily Cadle
Bridesmaid
Sarah and Emily met in college during a theatre production of 'As It Is In Heaven'. Growing closer over the years, Sarah has stuck by Emily's side through plenty more theatre shows, bad friendships, and even Emily's own wedding. Sarah adores Emily's fun-loving friendship and always welcomes her advice.
Eli Cadle
Groomsman
Jack and Eli became close friends while acting together in 'Holmes and Watson' at FHU. Jack found a kindred spirit in Eli as a fellow anxious individual. The two have stayed friends and bonded over Fortnite, board games, and the greatest show on television, Survivor. Eli's kind spirit and commitment to his friends is an inspiration to Jack.
Taylor Gorrell
Bridesmaid
Sarah and Taylor met at school, and while it may seem like an unlikely pairing, Sarah and Taylor bring out the best in each other. Sarah helps Taylor slow down while Taylor pushes Sarah outside her comfort zone. Sarah can always count on Taylor to know exactly how to spruce up an outfit and to tell Sarah that her body looks beautiful in whatever it is wearing.
J.T. Pearce
Groomsman
Jack and JT both attended FHU, but became closer friends after college. Life is never boring when you can talk with JT about music, film, and any other topic he undoubtably has knowledge in. Many hours have been spent on board games, travel, and live shows. Jack is incredibly blessed to have friends like JT in Middle Tennessee, and loves when they all get together.
Marisa Cottrill
Bridesmaid
Sarah and Marisa met in college and immediately clicked. With countless inside jokes and a shared love of One Direction, these two girls were unstoppable. Marisa was one of Sarah's first friends at school. Marisa is always down to have rot time, nap time, and 10 pm McDonald's runs. Sarah trusts Marisa to be honest and never afraid to call Sarah out when she's bein a little crazy. Though they live far apart, Sarah and Marisa's friendship has always been waiting whenever they need it.
Caleb Shockley
Groomsman
Jack and Caleb met at S&B and quickly bonded over their love for movies. Caleb introduced Jack to what is now his favorite movie, Christopher Nolan's 'Interstellar'. They often go to the movies together and enjoy standing in the parking lot talking about them afterwards. Jack is so happy to have Caleb as a friend, and can't wait to burn through many more movie tickets with him.
Sydney Cain
Bridesmaid
Sydney and Sarah met at Shiloh and Bros, in the summer of 2024. In true Sydney fashion, she warmed up to Sarah immediately. Both seem to instantly know what the other is thinking or needs without having to say anything or ask. Sydney is one of Sarah's guides in life and a voice of reason when things get scary or tough. Sarah is so incredibly grateful to Sydney and her ability to think of everything Sarah might think of and finding solutions to problems so they never arise. Sarah is honored to have Sydney with her on a day Sydney will make sure goes perfectly.
Tyler Adams
Groomsman
Jack and Tyler met at S&B and bonded while they spent a day deconstructing a wretched set piece built to torment them. They have played monsters, knights, and chefs together while chatting about fishing and their love for history. The two enjoy each other's company so much that Jack listens to Tyler rant about the Steelers and Tyler listens to Jack rant about Warhammer 40k. Jack is incredibly lucky to have Tyler as a role model and close friend in his life.
