Jamie & Cody
Wedding Party
Kaitlyn Kirkland
Maid of Honor
Kaitlyn and I have been friends since my freshman year of high school and we met through marching band. She has the biggest heart and has supported me through so much over the years! Whether we’re having a game night or just catching up, we always have a good time. Kaitlyn, you are simply amazing and I am so excited to have you standing next to me on the big day!
Brandon Blair
Best Man
Brandon and I have been friends 16 years. Over all this time I've been thankful to have a brother that supports me in making good and bad decisions.
Caleb Edkins
Bridesman
Caleb and I met in the music therapy program at App State. Throughout countless, stressful, and late nights of studying and practicing piano, he has always kept me laughing and certainly helped me survive college. Caleb, I can’t thank you enough for reminding me to live life to the fullest (and listen to some new music every once in a while…)!
Austin Lowery
Groomsman
Austin and I met as the two incoming tuba performance majors at App State. We both expected to absolutely hate each other, but the opposite happened and we became close friends who love the tuba.
Liz Pearce
Bridesmaid
Liz is my middle school bestie. There is literally never a dull moment when we are together! Though we went to different high schools, the universe brought us together again briefly at App. Liz, I adore you and you have brought so much joy to my life! No matter how much time we’ve spent apart, it’s so easy to pick back up where we left off.
Andrew Hicks
Groomsman
Andrew and I met early on in college but didn't truly become friends until we pledged our fraternity (Phi Mu Alpha) together. Through many long weekend nights and years of brass quintet, he's become one of my closest friends and brothers.
Sierra Bowles
Bridesmaid
Sierra and I have managed to stay the best of friends since the second grade. We could definitely write a book at this point of all of our goofy stories and memories over the years! Though she moved to Tennessee several years ago, we’ve cheered for each other from afar and gotten together whenever possible. Sierra, I am so grateful for you and the friendship we share!
Topher Kane
Groomsman
Topher and I met when he started going to school at Appalachian State. Throughout college, he was a great influence by being such a dedicated person and close friend. It's not often you find a friend who is also a role model.
Avery Gray
Bridesmaid
My former roommate and beloved friend, Avery and I met marching in the clarinet section at App State. Avery is unlike anyone I’ve ever met; She challenges me and breaks me out of my quiet shell in the best ways! I also don’t think I would have survived Music Theory and Aural Skills with anyone else… Avery, I have always adored you and am thankful for our friendship!
Logan Smith
Groomsman
Logan and I met early on in college where we were both playing sousaphone. Logan has always been one of the most thoughtful and caring people I've ever met. I'm thankful we were able to continue our friendship when we moved to Illinois and bond over D&D.
Cassie Stachurski
Bridesmaid
Cassie was my mentor in marching band and an RA in my dorm during my freshman year at App. She is part of the reason why I decided to join Sigma Alpha Iota (music fraternity) during college, in which she became not only my friend, but a sweet sister! She’s been there through highs and lows, and has always been a constant source of support and encouragement. Cassie, I was lucky enough to stand by you during your wedding, and now I can’t wait for you to do the same for me!
Tyler Mastrogianakis
Groomsman
Tyler and I met in high school through marching band and we've been friends for almost 10 years now. Tyler is one of the few people I know that is willing to do anything for a friend and I'm thankful to have him by my side.
