Wedding Party
Etienne Surrette
Best Man
I have known Etienne since freshmen year of college in 2018. We bonded in class one day over our love of 1940s-era big band music, and the rest, as they say, is history. He has been a true friend and brother to me ever since, and I am honored to have him as my best man. Etienne currently resides in Whitefish, MT, with his wife Sarai and their little girl, pursuing his love of photography and the outdoors every day. I hope to join him out there in Big Sky Country one day!
Abby Mills
Maid of Honor
Meet my best friend Abby, the ultimate partner in late-night venting and survival expert of the nightmare roommate chronicles. we weren't officially roommates, but living across the hall meant we might as well have been. from whispered rants about who left the kitchen a disaster, to laughing about stupid things happening on campus, Abby and I bonded over the chaos and turned it into some of the best memories. she's the one who always knew when I needed a laugh or some kind of plan to escape. Having her as my Maid of Honor is only fitting because no one has survived more with me or has more stories to tell.
Liam Sherry
Groomsman
I have known Liam all the way back to our days kindergarten 20 years ago, and our friendship continued despite going to different schools as we went through Boy Scouts together, both receiving our Eagle Scout awards together in 2018. I have had many an adventure with Liam over the years in the great outdoors, and he’s always been there to lend a hand when I need him. I don’t have too many updated pictures of us, so enjoy the two of us on our high school graduation day in 2018.
Bella Couture
Bridesmaid
My little sister, Bella, is one of the most special people in my life. She brings so much warmth, laughter, and love wherever she goes, and I’m beyond grateful to have her as a bridesmaid. Her excitement for this day and the love she shows me are just a few of the countless reasons why I’m honored to have her standing with me as I marry the love of my life.
Davis Hawkins
Groomsman
Davis is the friend who really surprised me, as when I first got to know him it was in the way of us butting heads over roommate disagreements in college. I’d be lying if I didn’t say he bothered me at first. But over the years since, we actually opted to be roommates for future semesters and even outside of college. It goes to show what making a concerted effort towards friendship can do, and as I was proud to stand by his side for his wedding last year, so I will be to have him by my side at mine.
Miranda Couture
Bridesmaid
Meet my cousin Miranda, who isn't just family but the big sister I never had. From goofing off all night at nana's sleepovers to laughing our butts off from weird llama books, I am overjoyed to be having her by my side.
Sam Knabel
Groomsman
As many of you know, I worked in Yellowstone National Park during the summer of 2021. I met a lot of people there, but one stuck out in particular, and that was Sam. We were both cooks on the line together, and that was where our friendship grew. We bonded over love of music and our political disagreements (yes, you read that right). To create a friendship in a place as magical as Yellowstone is, that is truly special, and I’m thankful to still call Sam a friend many years later.
Dyanna
Bridesmaid
Say hello to Dyanna, my former partner-in-crime from our days as RBTs, where we tackled tough challenges and shared countless laughs in between. From turning stressful moments into inside jokes only we understand to celebrating even the tiniest victories like they were the Super Bowl, D has been a constant source of support, fun, and inspiration. I'm so excited to have her by my side on this special day.
Zachary Lang
Groomsman
Zach is just an all-around awesome friend that I met during my time at Regent. He’s there for you in a heartbeat and he always keeps it real. He’s also pretty much the only reason I have left to ever visit Virginia Beach. P.S. I am 100% intentionally embarrassing him with this picture of him as an RA in college. Although, let’s be honest…it’s pretty cool.
