Wedding Party

Jacob Renie

Groom

Reagan Walton

Bride

Jonathan Thompson

Best Man

If Missouri was a Common Law State then JT would be Jacob’s first marriage. Their friendship initially began over a shared background of being from the South at Mizzou (their obvious hatred of the cold was a dead giveaway) and they ended up being roommates almost their entire adult lives. It is hard to picture anyone else up there next to Jacob as he marries Reagan. JT was there on the couple’s first celebration of Reagan’s birthday and it is Reagan and not Jacob that JT turns to when he wants to talk college basketball.

Kelsey Troth

Maid of Honor

Kelsey is Reagan's literal ride or die. After meeting in Kindergarten and learning they lived around the corner from each other, to then riding the bus home together everyday in middle school and spending hours jumping on the trampoline, watching several Valley football games on Saturdays, they've done it all. They are close enough that Kelsey graciously allowed Reagan to get married on her birthday.

Kyle Pieper

Groomsman

Kyle and Jacob met at Mizzou and quickly rose to dominance on the Stankowski fields with their rushing attack. Due to neither of them being able to say no to anything, they are always golfing, bowling and when convinced, working out together. Surprisingly a week in Vegas their senior year didn’t ruin the friendship and instead gave birth to a number of well-intentioned but ultimately disastrous parlays over the years. If Jacob mentions that he’s going to the lake then you can bet he is at Kyle’s lake house.

Skylar Walton

Bridesmaid

Skylar is Reagan's little sister, biggest supporter, and the person who will tell her like it is no matter what. It may have taken Reagan moving off to college for the them to even become friends, but now they can be seen silently judging any and everyone together when out in any public space together.

Garrett Hager

Groomsman

When Jacob subleted an apartment to stay the summer after Freshman year in Columbia, Garrett was one of the roommates that came with the place. The two famously binged watched Netflix for 5 hours the first day and stopped to order food when Garrett said, “Hey man. I don’t know your name but I’m gonna order a pizza if you want in.” The two quickly developed an arrangement where Jacob would take him to parties full of teens where his shot gunning skills would shine and Garrett showed Jacob all the places in Columbia he had yet to explore. To top it off, Garrett graciously gave Jacob the idea of where to propose to Reagan (it was the same spot he proposed to his wife Kenzie).

Savannah Light

Bridesmaid

Savannah and Reagan's friendship came out of nowhere. Reagan had just gotten a new job at a gym and Savannah had been put in charge to show her the ropes. They quickly learned they both had an affinity for shopping, fitness, and disliking a majority of social situations. The two are so close that Reagan applied for a new job at a different gym, interviewed and didn't believe it would be the best fit for her, so she sent Savannah the application, and that's where Savannah has flourished in her professional career.

Bobby Towers

Groomsman

Bobby and Jacob both enjoy playing games, but unlike Bobby, Jacob is not very good at them. Pong, Golden Tee, Pool, etc. the game doesn’t matter. If you added up the score sheet Bobby’s win percentage over Jacob would be staggering (probably why he always wants to play more). The two actually met over a game of flag football at Stankowski and now they are in a bowling league together. So if you see someone with cards or dice at the wedding, his name is Bobby.

Hannah Vasil

Bridesmaid

Hannah and Reagan became friends through Kay and the recurrent theme of how terrible PT School is. They both share a love for baseball, dogs, and margaritas. Hannah is the friend that is always down for any plan without a second thought. If there is a big test coming up, you can probably find Hannah and Reagan at their favorite study place Latte Lounge Downtown!

Daniel Schoon

Groomsman

Daniel is one of Jacob’s oldest friends, dating back to the 8th grade. The two really hit it off at first (just ask Schoon) and were in a number of clubs and sports together growing up. Despite going to different SEC schools, the two stayed in touch and would regularly visit. Daniel was the first person from Georgia to meet Reagan and it’s fitting that he will be up there when the two marry.

Kay Mastrocola

Bridesmaid

Kay and Reagan met during Admitted PT Student Day at SLU, but ended up living on two opposite ends of campus, and only having 200+ student lectures together. Then the summer of Gross Anatomy they randomly talked about how terrible PT School is and from there they've been inseparable. Kay is the right crafty and creative side of Reagan's left control and organization side of the brain.

Brandon Graham

Groomsman

A late arrival to Mizzou, Brandon and Jacob got to know each other over Shakespeare’s pizza and well drinks while stranded in Columbia one summer. Eventually the two roomed together and lived in the most chaotic house in Soulard. They should have known that would be case when they chose a 20 degree day in January to move in. Brandon and Jacob had been roommates for less than a month when Jacob went on his first date with Reagan. Later they would come to find out that his dog, Ted, likes Reagan a whole lot more than Jacob.

Courtney Emmenegger

Bridesmaid

Courtney and Reagan were freshman college roommates. And they hated each other. Two very different backgrounds being forced to live in what felt like a 4x4 room was a huge adjustment. Then coming home from Christmas Break they realized they missed each other and their little talks. If you would have told freshman year Courtney and Reagan that within 6 years they would both be married, in each other's bridal parties, AND staying in St. Louis, there's no way they would have believed you.
