Averie & Jacob
Wedding Party
Haleigh Beck
Maid of Honor
Haleigh and Averie met on the first day of college! We both showed up early to our biology lab class. I was quiet and shy but Haleigh was very chatty and asking me question after question. Her persistence, energy, and kind heart were evident and I could not ignore it! We then started going to concerts together and then became pretty inseparable throughout college. She quickly became an important person in my life and so happy to have her standing right by my side! We have been friends for about 11 years!
Josh Thompson
Best Man
Josh is second in line of the four brothers. His dedication and determination in life has always influenced Jacob. You could always count on little brother Jacob copying his big brother. Jacob loved playing hockey with all of his brothers growing up, but he could always count on Josh for his love of competition! Josh was actually the first brother to meet Averie. We all met at a winery and let’s just say it made for a pretty amazing memory! We are so thankful to have Josh be a part of our wedding day!
Katie Valentic
Bridesmaid
Katie and Averie met at LAX airport at the gate to board a plane to Ireland for a study abroad program through Cal State Fullerton. We went to college together but did not cross paths until we both signed up to study abroad for the summer in Dublin, Ireland. Ever since the first meeting we have been close friends for roughly 8 years!
Justin Thompson
Groomsman
Justin is the the third of the four brothers and the comedian of the family. He always has a joke or a comment that has everyone laughing. Justin has always been a big help to jacob through the years. Always giving endless support to him in every stage of life. Justin is the father of two beautiful girls and his strong connection with his daughters truly inspired and prepared jacob for when Isla was born. He’s been a great example. We are so looking forward to having him stand with us while we say our vows!
Kasey Brady
Bridesmaid
Kasey and Averie have been friends since high school when we both joined the cheer team! Kasey has been such a positive light and supportive friend through each adventure life has thrown out. We have been friends for about 13 years!
Jason Estes
Groomsman
Jason is the oldest brother of Jacobs. You can always tell when Jason is in the room from his contagious laughter! Jacob has always admired Jason’s positive attitude and outlook on life. One thing jacob really cherishes is all of the hilarious and memorable times that Jason created at the river growing up as kids. Oh and we can’t forget the never ending teasing that jacob still gets from his big brother! :) we are so happy to have Jason be a part of our wedding!
Joy Shiba
Bridesmaid
Joy and Averie met in junior high! We continued being friends all through junior high and high school! When college came we had the same major and decided to take every class together! This was a life saver and brought us really close! We have been friends for about 16 years!
Grayson Foster
Groomsman
Grayson is the soon to be fourth brother of Jacob! He is Averie’s older brother and her best friend. Grayson has been such a huge support and confidant in my life. I am so blessed to have a big brother like Gray! Life would have been very boring without him growing up! We cannot be more thankful to have him be apart of our big day!
Demi Graham
Bridesmaid
Demi and Averie have been friends since fifth grade! We also grew up down the street from each other! We have been through so many stages of life together and her friendship has been such a blessing! We have been friends for about 18 years!
Taylor Freeling
Groomsman
Taylor is a long time friend of Jacob! They have known each other since the second grade! Taylor and Jacob were partners in crime growing up. Always being a little mischievous together. Taylor’s friendship has always meant so much to Jacob and after 23 years of friendship we cannot be more excited to have him in the wedding!
