Rachel
Bridesmaid
Rachel is one of Taylor’s longest and best friends. They met on a Facebook page for gestational Carriers as they both carried two babies for couples who couldn’t conceive. They had that unique experience in common but upon talking realized they had so much more in common and jokingly call themselves sisters from another mister. Hundreds of miles may separate them but that doesn’t stop them from planning trips together, morning zoom calls, and praying fiercely for each other. Rachel enjoys officiating weddings, a good sermon, and good food. If you see Rachel today ask her about the power of her prayers
Matt
Groomsman
Matt is one of Justin’s closest friends, they’ve been friends since Justin moved to North Carolina over a decade ago and they were even roommates for a period of time. Nowadays they spend their time together playing golf. Matt is the life of the party and will probably get the drunkest at our wedding. We apologize in advance for his antics. Matt enjoys a good party, a stiff drink, line dancing. If you see Matt tonight ask him about the night he first met Taylor.
Sharon
Bridesmaid
Sharon met Justin and Taylor at their community pool. She quickly became one of Taylor’s closest friends because she’s down for any adventure, gives advise straight up no chaser and has advocated many times for Justin to pop the question. She’s arguably the reason you’re all here today lol. She loves knitting, documentaries, and mental health. If you see Sharon today ask her how many gas Stations we stopped at to find Justin’s favorite beer.
Steven
Groomsman
Steven is Justin’s cousin but more like a brother to him. After high school Justin moved down to NC where they lived together, did stupid things together, and made memories together. Although distance once again stands between them as they trades spaces, whenever they do see each other it’s like no time has passed. Steven enjoys working on cars, video games, and spending time with his family. If you see Steven today ask him about the Honda from Oakboro.
