Jaelene & Matthew
Wedding Party
Dion Johnson
Best Man
He's been by my side since the first day I met him. He showed me what it looked like to follow God. His heart for people is huge, and his support and friendship has meant so much to me. I remember when we were both single, and we were making toasts for our future brides. I love this brother, my best friend for life.
Jordan Trainer
Maid of Honor
My ride or die since birth. My sister and best friend. My Maid of Honor. I am so thankful to have her stand by my side on my big day! The Lord obviously knew what He was doing when He gave me Jordan as a sister. I wouldn't have survived all of these years without her, and I'm so very glad I've never had to try to.
Andy Dooley
Groomsman
DOOLEY! The Face of Reebok One. Author. Pastor. Father. Many things for sure, but he truly is a brother from another mother. He's believed in me since the beginning. We've lived in three different states together. Always a good time with Andy, filled with lots of good talks, laughs, and rap sessions.
Sydne Scott
Bridesmaid
Sydne is the older sister of Jaylan Scott and has been my best friend since we were five years old. She didn't care for me much back then haha but as the years went by she became like a sister to me. We have been through so much together. Through our awkward years of homeschooling to our even more awkward years of high school to all the adventures since then, Sydne is a friend I know I'll have until the day Jesus comes back. I am grateful for who she is and who she has always been to me, an incredible friend and sister.
Daniel Williamson
Groomsman
Will-I-Am! We spent 6 months together doing YWAM, 3 of them out of the country together. Oh man, so many memories on the mission field together... too many inside jokes. He has been one of the most genuine, encouraging friends I've ever had. He's been with me through some very tough seasons, and always been such a great friend!
Jaylan Scott
Bridesmaid
Jay bay-bay! Jaylan is the sister of Sydne Scott. Both these sweet girls have been my best friends since childhood, and I'm so thankful for Jaylan's love, support, and wisdom over the years. She may be younger than me, but the girls got wisdom from above! Grateful to have her by my side come February.
Jamal Hinkle
Groomsman
Excited to gain a brother like Jamal when I marry Jaelene. Our first time talking was him calling me wondering what I was doing trying to date his sister! haha but for real, he is a very generous and supportive friend. I am so thankful to have him standing up there with me on the big day!
Iris Hinkle
Bridesmaid
My beautiful sister-in-law. Grateful the Lord found someone willing to put up with my little brother and groomsman, Jamal Hinkle! Iris is sweet, kind, and fits right into our crazy family.
Jeffrey Staab
Groomsman
Excited to gain this man Jeffrey as a brother! He is a true family man, and loves them with all that he is. He has been a source of encouragement and has been very supportive to us during our relationship.
Brooke Lindholm
Bridesmaid
So thankful to be able to have Brooke be a part of our big day! She is kind, witty, and a joy to be around. So thankful for her two little boys, Lucas and Logan (who will be our ring bearers for the ceremony), and the most recent addition to the family, Josie! Very thankful for Jeffrey and Brooke and the joy they bring to our entire family!
Zach Trainer
Groomsman
So grateful to gain an awesome brother-in-law. Zach and his wife Jordan bring a lot of love and laughter to our family. Zach is a man of few words, but a great friend and brother once you get to know him.
Stephanie Read
Bridesmaid
Stephanie Subervi and I go all the way back to our club soccer days at Real Colorado. She knew me before I came into my "prime" haha Steph has always supported me both on and off the soccer field. We had weekly sleepovers when I lived what seemed like days away from our high school. I knew she'd be with me forever, and I'm so thankful she's willing to be apart of my day when I couldn't be apart of hers.
Niko Peele
Groomsman
NIKO! One of the most peaceful people you will ever meet. He has been a real brother to me over the years. He was my first friend in Raleigh. Niko knows everyone, and he is such a humble brother. He is known all over the nation, yet he always make time for his friends. If you ever need some prayer, hit this dude up!
Kelsy Beauchman
Bridesmaid
There's no sweeter human being on the earth than Kelsy Beauchman. She is a light that shines oh so bright, and she enriches the lives of all who get the chance to meet her. We also met in high school, and I'm grateful the Lord has sustained our friendship over all these years!
Billy Dupree
Groomsman
BIlly BOY! One of My Favorite Preachers. One of the Funniest People I know. Such a genuine lover of people, and always encouraging everyone he talks to.
Elizabeth Eddy
Bridesmaid
A gem of a friend. Lover of Jesus. Soccer star. Me and Elizabeth met 5 years ago in Buffalo, New York (of all places), and it's been a sister type friendship ever since. Anddddd, I must credit her for bringing Matthew into my life. Thanks Elizabeth!
Jordan Marcotte
Groomsman
JMar. My YWAM brother. I was first introduced to Jordan through International House of Prayer Worship Stream, and remember being like, whaaaaa, some soulful worship. Who knew our paths would cross years later in Kansas City. Our pasts are so similar, and we've always connected deeply, acted wildly and laughed like crazy together. So grateful this guy is in my life.
Brianna Ulasi
Bridesmaid
I am so thankful for Bri and the friendship that quickly began to evolve between the two of us almost a year and a half ago. Brianna is married to Michael Ulasi, who is one of our ushers for our special day. Bri is full of wisdom and love well beyond her years, and the Lord has used her to speak truth into my life on so many different occasions. She is truly a blessing to have in my life, and I'm so thankful the Lord allowed our paths to cross. So excited to have her be a part of me and Matthew's big day!
Dave Owen
Officiant
We are so excited to have Pastor Dave Owen officiate our wedding! Pastor Dave and his wife Julie, along with their entire family have meant so much to us. Dave and Julie have practically mentored us since the day Matthew asked me out. They have poured so much wisdom and love into our lives, and it means the world to have them travel from NC to be a apart of our big day. We love you both!
Betsey Hinkle
Mother of the Bride
Mama Bear! I am so grateful for this wonderful mother of mine. Words cant express how much you mean to me and have taught me so much in this short lifetime of mine. You raised me to know the Lord, and serve Him with all my heart. You have showered me with love and support every second of my life. You are one of the hardest working people I know. You my mama, are a beautiful gift from the Lord. Thank you for loving me so well.
Cornell Hinkle
Father of the Bride
Dad! I am so blessed by you and all that you have always done for me. You are one of the strongest men I know. You have always taught me to work hard, do my best, and give the rest to the Lord. Seeing how far you have come, even in your walk with the Lord, has brought me so much joy, and I can't wait to have you walk w down the aisle come February 1st!
Kennedi Trainer
Flower Girl
I love this girl with all my heart! I'm so glad (even at the age of 10), she still wants to be my flower girl! I remember when this sweet girl was born and being able to spend many years in both Colorado and Texas with her. She is a beautiful girl with a beautiful heart, and both myself and her future Uncle Matthew are so excited to have her be a part of our big day!
Lucas Staab
Ring Bearer
This fire cracker nephew of mine is going to be me and Matthew's ringbearer and we are thrilled about it! Lucas has so much life and energy within him, and he brings lots of laughter to our lives. Whether he's trying to wrestle us to the ground, or calling Matthew, Bob (and Matthew calling him Rob in return haha), he's a true joy to be around, and we love him dearly!
Logan Staab
Ring Bearer
Logan Staab! Our other ringbearer and younger brother to Lucas! It has been sweet to see (even if only over lots of FaceTime), Logan show his personality more and more each day! Whether its playing with his older brother and cousin Kennedi, or lounging around on top of his dad haha, Logan is a fun, growing baby boy that I know our entire family is grateful for!
