Jaycee & Ernest
Wedding Party
Ernest Scaff

He is excited to begin this next chapter with her and share their love and joy with everyone on their big day! For the last four years, he has worked as an exterminator, and he goes so far as killing all the bugs for his beautiful bride, and handling the "protein" for her many reptiles. He enjoys spending his free time gaming with good friends, always up for a fun and competitive challenge.
Jaycee Sharp
Bride
Jaycee grew up in Taft, California, and moved to Arizona in 2020. At the beginning of 2024 Jaycee met Ernie, and they began dating shortly after. He finally popped the question on January 26, 2025.

She is working toward becoming a credentialed veterinary technician, supported by Ernie wholeheartedly.
Riley Hammerling
Best Man
Riley and Ernie first met as coworkers, but it didn’t take long for their shared love of gaming to turn them into best friends. Their friendship has been built on countless late-night gaming sessions, strategizing in Dungeons & Dragons, or teaming up online. As the co-best man, Riley brings not just camaraderie, but also a great sense of humor and unwavering support for Ernie on this special day.
Hope Hampton
Maid of Honor
Hope and Jaycee have been inseparable since freshman year of high school, and no amount of distance has ever changed that. When she moved out of state during Jaycee's first year of college, Jaycee had no idea that she'd soon follow—only to end up just 30 minutes away! Life took them in different directions again when Jaycee moved a year later, but through every change, their friendship has stayed just as strong. Hope has been Jaycee's constant and sister at heart, and Jaycee is beyond grateful to have her by her side as her co-maid of honor on this special day.
Shaun Perez
Best Man
Shaun is not just Ernie's brother-in-law but also a close friend and gaming partner. Whether they’re embarking on epic Dungeons & Dragons campaigns or teaming up online, their shared love for games has built countless memories. His humor, loyalty, and strategic thinking make him the perfect co-best man for the occasion!
Braedyn Lofgren
Maid of Honor
In February 2021, a simple game of volleyball in Phoenix brought Jaycee one of the greatest friendships of her life. From the moment they met, Braedyn (aka Babby Grill) and Jaycee clicked—not just on the court, but in life. They've bonded over their love of books, countless deep conversations, and unforgettable memories. Braedyn has been Jaycee's rock, adventure buddy, and now, her one of her maids of honor. Jaycee couldn’t imagine saying “I do” without Braedyn standing beside her, and she's so grateful to have Braedyn as her best friend!
Trent Negri
Groomsman
Trent has been a part of Ernie’s life for as long as he can remember, more than a friend—he’s family. Through every stage of life, their bond has remained strong, built on years of laughter, support, and shared experiences. As one of Ernie’s groomsmen, Trent stands by his side, just as he always has.
Shaylon Hansen
Bridesmaid
From the moment Jaycee and Shay started working together a couple of years ago, Shay quickly became more than just a coworker—she became a true friend. Through long shifts, endless laughter, and the occasional workplace chaos, they've built a bond that goes far beyond work. Shay one of the kindest, most supportive people, and Jaycee couldn’t imagine my wedding day without Shay by her side. Jaycee feels so lucky to have her as a bridesmaid and even luckier to have her as a lifelong friend!
Brendon Wolsey
Groomsman
Brendon isn’t just Ernie’s nephew—he’s been more like a brother. Growing up together, they shared countless memories, from childhood adventures to family gatherings. Their bond has only grown stronger over the years, making it an easy choice to have Brendon stand by Ernie’s side on this special day."
Bethany Stephenson
Bridesmaid
When Bethany and Jaycee met in January 2024, they just clicked. Navigating the chaos of their job side by side has created a bond filled with laughter, teamwork, and plenty of inside jokes. No matter how hectic things get, Bethany is always there with a much-needed pep talk, sarcastic comment, or eye roll and a laugh. Jaycee is so grateful for her friendship and couldn’t imagine her wedding day without Bethany standing beside her!
Annie Oakley
Best Dog
Annie joined Jaycee and Ernie’s family in February and quickly became an irreplaceable part of their lives. She’s incredibly smart, endlessly loving, and has a passion for fetch that knows no limits. Whether she’s chasing a ball at full speed or curling up for snuggles, Annie brings so much joy to their home. They’re so lucky to have her as part of our journey!
Bullet
Dog of Honor
Bullet has been by Jaycee’s side since she was 13, making her the most loyal companion through every stage of life. From teenage years to out of state moves and now to marriage, Bullet has seen it all—offering unconditional love, comfort, and plenty of tail wags along the way. She’s not just a pet; she’s family, and this special day wouldn’t be complete without her.
