Wedding Party
Brooke Odom
Maid of Honor
Brooke is my older sister, best friend, and the one I’ve always looked up to. She’s been by my side since day one (literally) and has helped me through so much. I am lucky to have a sister like her stand by my side for the best day of my life. -Jessica
Kailey Craft
Bridesmaid
Kailey and I met through mutual friends. We hit it off fast! She is one of the sweetest souls I have ever met. She is my go to girl when I need a pick me up. She always goes above and beyond to brighten my mood! She is my person, my best friend, my sister ❤️ -Jessica
Jessica VanDeVelde
Bridesmaid
Jessica is the funniest, most caring person I have ever met. The story on how we met proves that! I was at one of John’s basketball games and she was sitting a few rows above me. This girl sees me sitting alone and tells me to come sit with her and she talked to me like we had known each other for years! Since that day we have snap chatted ALMOST everyday for about 3 years. She has always been just a text/call away if I’ve ever needed her. -Jessica
Amanda Locklear
Bridesmaid
I met Amanda at work. When we first met we DID NOT hit it off lol it took a few months before we started talking and then we actually got super close. She has seen the crazy side, the sad side, the happy side, and the angry side of me and she does not judge me for any of it! I could literally tell her I killed someone and she would think of a logical reason on why I was right to do it lol. She always supports me. We are so much alike it is crazy! I’m honored to have her as a part of my big day. -Jessica
Erin Shelley
Bridesmaid
Me and Erin have been friends going on 6 years now. I can literally talk to her about anything, she has my back and will stand up for me no matter what. She is that friend that doesn’t tell me what I want to hear. She tells me how it is and I love that about her. I can always count on her to stand behind me. She really balances me out! -Jessica
Hannah Tarlton
Bridesmaid
Hannah is my soon to be sister-in-law. She is someone that gets to tell me old funny stories about John before I came along. She roots for us and has supported us every step of the way. I love seeing how excited she is for us! -Jessica
Brylee & Kaylee Powell
Flower Girl
Lee Tarlton
Best Man
What can I say? He's my Dad. He's been there from day 1 (literally) and has taught me so much about life and how to be a man. I can't think of anyone more deserving to stand beside me on my wedding than the man who showed me how to be a great husband. -John
Cameron Tarlton
Groomsman
My mini-me. The First person I had to get the OK from to ask Jess to be my wife. Cam has changed me for the better over the years and I Love him more than I can explain. Having him stand beside me as Jess and I say I do is a dream come true for me. -John
Fred McDougald
Groomsman
Fred is my right hand man at work and he is like my older brother. From the very first day that I met Fred years ago we instantly hit it off and as fate would have it we started working together everyday. Fred has always told me like it was because that is what brothers do. He tells me all the time that I have a good women and I am a lucky man. You would be hard pressed to find a more genuine and good person. -John
Layne Smith
Groomsman
Honestly I'm not sure how Layne and I are still alive after all of the crazy things that we have done together. Layne and I became friends when I went to SCA in the 10th grade and have been brothers ever since. His family took me in like their own and I am forever thankful for them. Layne and I have been through all kind of stuff together good and bad but our friendship remained steady throughout. -John
Jason Pevey
Groomsman
Jason and I have always just clicked. We met at 9th grade football practice at Scotland and I think I stayed with him almost that entire summer actually. His family treated me like their own. (I had my own set of chores) Jason and I are like brothers and his family is like my family. -John
Chase Cline
Groomsman
Chase and I have met playing All-Star baseball when we were like 8. His family always treated me like their own when we went off and played in other cities. Chase and I have always had a great friendship and we talk almost everyday about Madden, Stocks, Sport Rumors you name it. Chase and I have always competed with each other from baseball as kids to baseball and disc golf as adults. Chase is like a brother to me and I am forever grateful for our friendship. -John
Ryan Walker
Groomsman
Ryan is the reason I have a giant scar on my ankle. 21 stitches when I was like 5 years old which is also my first memory with Ryan and it was uphill from there. Ryan is my longest tenured brother and we have always had each others back no matter what. Ryan will make sure that the reception is nothing but a good time believe me!! -John
