Mike Thacker
Father of the Groom
What can I say about my dad? He's always been my biggest supporter and the greatest man I've ever known. He's always put his family first, busted his butt to provide for us and will give anyone the shirt off his back. I'm honored to call him my dad .
JR Harris
Father of the Bride
My daddy has always been supportive of my decisions. While he may not have understood half of them, he believed in me. He's someone I can always share a laugh with or even a cold beer after a long day. I am blessed to have someone like him in my life.
Kathy Thacker
Mother of the Groom
What can I say about the woman that brought me into this world? She's an amazing person and I couldn't have asked for a better mother. I'm grateful to have her in my life and I don't know what I'd do without her.
Barbara Harris
Mother of the Bride
This woman is a saint! I honestly don't know how she was able to raise me and my brother and still be smiling and have hair left on her head! I know I didn't make it easy. She's always been my biggest fan and her love for me has never waivered. I couldn't have been blessed with a better mom!!
Michael Latiolais
Best Man
One of my brothers from my days in the USAF. "Gator" and I have known each other since early 1997 when he got to Travis Air Force Base, CA about a month after I did. We were assigned to the same aircraft as mechanics and have been brothers ever since. I can't say enough about this great man and his amazing wife and family. I'm absolutely thrilled to have him as my best man.
Kaelynn Wilson
Matron of Honor
What can I say? My beautiful daughter. My mini me. We literally grew up together and share the most amazing bond that I could ever ask for as a momma. It's pretty freaking amazing that she's going to be playing a more active role in this wedding! My kids' approval meant everything to me. I remember the first time she met Joe. Leading up to the introduction, she reminded me that she had reservations about anyone in general. Within an hour of their first meet and greet, she whispered in my ear that he was a keeper and to never to let him go.
Curtis Johnson
Groomsman
One of the few other Kentucky boys that I got to serve alongside with, "Cujo" has been a close brother to me since way back in the mid 1990s. You'll never find a nicer, more genuine guy. And he can cook like Martha Stewart! I'm proud to have served with him, and to continue to serve with him at UPS.
Renee Langford
Bridesmaid
I met Renee while working with her husband Eric at the jail. We clicked as soon as we met! Even though life has kept us busy, I know that she'll always be there for me. Someone that 's always opened her door for me and offered me a place to sleep and some good home cooked meals served on her best china on my best days and on my worst. The definition of a true blue friend. I'm so grateful that she's going to be able to share this happy occasion with me.
Morgan Woods
Groomsman
I've had a lot of great times with my brother Morgan. Watching MMA at his house, working on our aircraft in the middle-east, and jumping from country to country visiting Air Force bases all over the world. He and his wife are two of the most amazing people I've met and I'll always be grateful for their friendship.
Michelle Harris
Bridesmaid
The most wonderful and patient woman and mother I have had the pleasure of meeting and can proudly say is family. She's married to my brother ya'll.....and anyone that knows my brother, knows she has her hands full lol!
Wayne Lewen
Groomsman
My brother from almost day 1 in our Air Force careers. Wayne's life and mine have mirrored each other for close to 20 years. We ranked up together, shared identical moments in our personal lives, and have always been by each others side. I'm blessed to call him my brother and have him stand up with me once again.
Malisa May
Bridesmaid
While I've only known Malisa for a couple of years now, it feels like I've known her for a lifetime. We are definitely soul sisters. She's always willing to lend me an ear to listen, a shoulder to cry on, a dress or a bathing suit or whatever other article of clothing I may need for our adventures! My sista from another mista! I am beyond blessed that this lady will be standing beside me as I marry my other soul mate.
Rich Pyra
Groomsman
Rich is another brother that I've known since my early days in the Air Force. He was one of the first guys to take me under his wing and teach me about aircraft maintenance. His advice and friendship have meant the world to me for over 25 years.
Shannon Valdes
Bridesmaid
I've known Shannon for close to 30 years now! She's been there for my ups, down, lefts, rights, and everything in-between. The glue that helps hold myself together when I feel like I'm falling apart. Even when life gets hectic and we don't speak as often as we should, no matter how much time has passed, we always pick up right where we left off without missing a beat. A true testament that a friendship can truly last a lifetime. I am honored that this lady right here has been with me every step of the way....through this crazy thing called life as well as helping me plan the details of my special day and I can't wait for her to walk down the aisle before me.

My beautiful niece! A little ball of energy that’s full of curiosity and will leave you wondering what will come out of her mouth next Lol! She is definitely my brother’s daughter. A little stinkpot that I am blessed to have walking down the aisle for me. I can’t wait to see what pizazz she brings and all of the smiles she’ll make just for being my beautiful Anna B.
Eric Bishop
Ring Bearer
The BESTEST grandson ever!!! He's obvious handsome, smart, inquisitive and always has someone in stitches. Within a couple of months of Joe and I dating, he asked us if we were going to be getting married and told us that he hopes we would. How amazing will it be watching him walk down the aisle in his cute tuxedo carrying the rings that symbolizes exactly what he wished for???!!!!!! We love you little man!!!
