Maid of Honor
Summer is my built in best friend, my older sister that God graciously gifted me. We have spent countless hours laughing over inside jokes, sharing our favorite tv shows, movies, foods and vacationing together. She supports me, makes me laugh, and she isn't afraid to call me out when I need it. But most importantly she has been an incredible example of a Godly woman to me all of my life, I thank God for that. I can't imagine my life without her or my wedding without her by my side!
Matron of Honor
Allison and I met 10 years ago when her family moved to Maryland. Throughout the years with many other friendships coming and going, Allison and I have always stayed close and we are now closer than ever. We have grown so much together through middle school, high school, college and beyond as sisters in Christ who encourage and uplift each other has been an immense blessing. We can laugh about anything and often have deep theological conversations. I know that I can call her at any hour and she would drop everything to help me out. She became my sister-in-law in August 2024 and I cannot imagine life without her by my side.
Bridesmaid
Sidney and I have been friends for 10 years. After we met, we quickly became friends who could tell each other anything and everything. I have spent countless nights at the Whites house, it genuinely became my second home. Sidney and I spontaneously break into song, create entire storylines for strangers in coffee shops, and love to encourage each other's shopping habits. Most importantly we share a love for the Lord that connects us so deeply. I'm so thankful that God gave me Sidney as a best friend.
Bridesmaid
My friendship with Ashlynne basically began before either of us were born! Our parents knew each other and went to church together before either of us got here. Our families grew up together and we have seen each other through so many seasons, sometimes from farther away and sometimes up close. It feels like we are family and always have been. The Lord brought us even closer together in this season of life and I could not be more grateful. We love playing Nancy Drew together, having game nights, and going to Chick-Fil-A (a lot...). I'm so thankful for a friend like Ashlynne.
Best Man
The best man since birth, Giancarlo "Cari" Polizzi also happens to be my best friend. Though he has since left Virginia for Chicago (why would he do that?) I still love him dearly. I am so blessed to have a wonderful brother with whom I have spent many happy years eating Ethiopian food, smoking cigars, and watching Adventure Time.
Groomsman
Jonathan is one of my oldest friends: I'll never forget the time we met. I was riding the bus, playing on my Gameboy SP, and Jonathan peeked his head over the seat behind me and asked me "are you playing Pokémon". The rest is history. After many Minecraft servers (and about as many years) we're still fast friends, and Jonathan is still the man filled with wonder and excitement I met in Middle School.
Groomsman
From his humble beginnings as a cashier at Cabelas, Adam has embarked on a long, successful career in the trades, and managed to drag me along with him. Though much time as passed and our careers diverged, converged, and then diverged again, Adam has been a stalwart friend and brother in Christ. I've enjoyed many Magic the Gathering games (most of which I've lost) with him, and we talk regularly to catch up about our work, homes, and hobbies.

Last, but certainly not least, there's Bradley Hatfield. Known under several pseudonyms to include "Brad man", the "Bradinator", and "Wheels", Bradley is one of my closest friends. We regularly meet up to catch up about life over some Sheetz™ fried cheese curds. He's vivacious, wise, and a wonderful listening, and I treasure the time we spend together walking around the mall and talking Theology together.
