The Alley Wedding
Wedding Party
Kaleigh Moore
Matron of Honor
If you see two blonde headed boys running around the venue, they belong to Kaleigh and Baylee Moore! Kaleigh has blessed me with a beautiful niece, Maelyn, and two rambunctious twin nephews, Porter and Charlee. Although it took us a few years of "sisterly love" to learn to get along, we've grown close over the years and Jared and I are very thankful to have her as our matron of honor! -Sydney
Emily Hopper
Bridesmaid
Emily and I met about 6 years ago through mutual friends. She has remained a constant in my life and I have enjoyed experiencing new seasons of life with her! From college, to finding the people we are marrying, to Emily blessing me with a sweet God Child... we've remained close. Did I mention she's a Swiftie? I am so thankful to have her standing beside me on this special day, and I am thankful that Jared gets to experience her friendship, too. -Sydney
Heaven Washington
Bridesmaid
Heaven...where do I start? We met close to 8 years ago in Spanish class and were never separated after that! Heaven has always been my "go to" for various things; vacations, sleepovers, spontaneous plans, and so much more. I won't mention the time she almost died on a family segway tour in Williamsburg...but you can ask her about it. I've loved watching us grow up alongside each other and now we get to watch her son, Ary, grow up too! No matter the distance and time apart, we always find a way to be there for one another and I couldn't be more grateful to have her here beside me for this new season of life. -Sydney
Emily Greer
Bridesmaid
Becoming close friends during COVID, Emily and I might as well have lived together during quarantine! If you know Emily, you know how much she's kept me on my toes. We spent a lot of our time taking care of her horse, Halo, and often talked each other into trying new things, like skiing (never again). After she moved home to Michigan, I continued visiting her, Sammy, and my "Michigan Family" over the years. I thank them for always welcoming me into their homes and I'm grateful she's back in Ohio, standing beside me on my wedding day! -Sydney
Amy Fisher
Bridesmaid
Those who know Amy know she is the sweetest soul ever! With our husbands being best friends, she has graciously invited me into her home on multiple occasions. From swimming in the summer, to concerts, to watching Taylor Swift- I mean, the Chiefs- win the Super Bowl, we have shared many memorable moments together in our short time of knowing each other. I am so thankful that Jared and Paul's friendship has placed Amy into our lives! After attending her wedding last year, I'm very thankful she gets to be a part of our wedding this year! - Sydney
Maelyn Cline
Flower Girl
Maelyn was the first one to make me an aunt, a title I will cherish forever. For many years she has served as my best friend, tea party partner, hairdresser, Guitar Hero opponent, and now, flower girl (she would also argue that she's the wedding coordinator). Watching her grow has brought me indescribable joy and we are so proud of the remarkable kid she is! She adores Jared and we are ecstatic she gets to be a part of our special day. -Sydney
Jake Alley
Best Man
Jake is my little BIG brother that’s for certain. Jake and I have experienced quite a number of memories together as we’ve navigated life up to this point. We are very different personalities, and he will be the first to tell you that, but we are most certainly cut from the same cloth. It is a true blessing to have him as my brother, and even more of a blessing to have him stand beside me on this monumental day. He most definitely breaks the mold when it comes to being the Best Man, he is the best in whatsoever he chooses to do. Jake is truly one of the most kind hearted individuals that you will ever encounter. Throughout the years, I have received quite the amount of questions about Jake, asking if he was my brother. This is a testament to the incredible impact that he has on the lives of ALL the people he encounters. It is a true privilege to know you Jake. What a blessing it has been to watch you grow into the man that you are today. God knew what he was doing when He placed you in my life as my brother. No treasure can truly compare to the love of a brother. -Jared
Eli Reffit
Groomsman
Eli and I have been friends throughout grade school. You could say we go way back. We have spent countless hours talking about faith, life, and our friendship during those years. Eli can also be very convincing. I used to think that it was the craziest idea to ride an inflated banana out into the middle of the ocean, but Eli is extraordinarily persuasive. Somewhere during that time we became avid golfers where we spent quite the time and money losing balls for several months trying to improve our game. Eli is the life of the party. I don’t think I can truly express the gratitude I have in my heart for the friendship that we have. It is a true honor to have him stand beside me on this day sharing laughs. Thank you for being you Eli. You have enriched my life with your friendship. -Jared
Paul Fisher
Groomsman
Where do I begin. Paul has been a consistent friend in my life for quite a while now. Paul and I have traveled far and wide on adventures that normally ended in us sitting down and eating some food while talking about life, goals, and what we pictured our lives would be like in the future. I look back on those conversations frequently and wonder just how accurate were we really? Needless to say, Paul and I have experienced all of the highs and lows of life together. He is one of the truest friends that a man could ever have. Paul, I’m so very thankful for your friendship and all the adventures that we’ve experienced. I cannot wait to see all the memories that we will experience in the future. -Jared
Jacob Andronis
Groomsman
Jacob, gosh it seems odd to use your real name. Jacob, from the time he and his family relocated back to Ohio, has been one of my dearest friends. Jacob and I have experienced a world of adventure together over the years. Jacob is one of the most charismatic, fun-loving individuals that you will ever encounter. He has been the one that I have stayed up at all hours of the night competing in online video game tournaments, watching Marvel movies, and talking about life. Despite all the directions that life has pulled us, Jacob and I have been blessed to experience the joy of our friendship. What a blessing it truly is to have a friend in you. The honor is all mine. -Jared
Kenny Williams
Groomsman
Kenny and I have been friends for as long as I can remember. From growing up playing sports both together and against each other to going to college together and starting our lives. Kenny has been there for it all. Kenny is one of the most competitive people I know, other than myself. I’ve had the privilege of knowing Kenny and experiencing all the highs and lows that this life has to offer with him. He has been one of my truest and consistent friends during those years. We have gone fishing in monsoons, scouted sporting events, and shared so many laughs during those times. It has certainly been a pleasure to be your friend and grow up alongside you during this time of our lives. I pray that as the years go by we can make more memories that will continue to last a lifetime. It is a blessing to have you by my side on this special day and even more of a blessing to be your friend. Thank you for being you my friend. -Jared
Charlee Moore
Ring Bearer
Brave, animated, loving, and intelligent- 4 words to describe Charlee, my nephew. He is one-half of the Moore Twins and loves his "bubba" and "sissy"! You will probably catch him sitting with his Papaw or playing with "Alley". You can always hear Charlee cheering on Jared at basketball games (from across the gym, actually). He will be a left-handed hitter just like Jared one day; they share the same love for sports. Charlee and Jared developed a special bond from the beginning and quickly became best friends! He is also very much a sour patch kid; sweet one minute, and sour the next. It seems unreal that the twins are old enough to be a part of our wedding day, but we are so excited to watch them walk down that aisle!- Sydney
Porter Moore
Ring Bearer
Devious, charismatic, adventurous, and playful- 4 words to describe Porter, the second half of the Moore Twins. If you see a curly-headed kid tearing it up on the dance floor, that would be him! He is very skilled on his balance bike and never fails to give us all a heart attack. Porter always wants "Alley" around and is confused when I walk in the door without him. He is extremely smart and asks everyone if "Alley" got their ring for them, too! He loves going to basketball games too- but unlike Charlee, I think Porter is cheering on the cheerleaders more than he is Jared. Both boys, alongside Maelyn, have a special place in our hearts. It should be very entertaining to watch them be a part of our day! - Sydney
