Maid of Honor
Mackenzie is Jordan's first younger sister. Kenzie was one of Jordan's first playmates, although they often got in each other's hair (literally.. there are pictures). As they've gotten older, Mackenzie and Jordan have had some different interests, but it never stopped them from supporting each other's goals. Kenzie went to all sorts of band and choir concerts, football (marching band) games, and graduations. Jordan went to every basketball game she could of Kenzie's. Kenzie has been there for Jordan in many ways, even if it is just to set her straight.
Best Man
Noah and Tony met their freshman year at Christopher Newport University as they lived a floor apart in their dorm. Noah is a Civil War historian and a pro with a frisbee. Tony and Noah quickly became friends, spending many late nights studying, watching movies, and seeing who could procrastinate the most on their work. They then went on to become roommates for the rest of their time in college, sharing many adventures and frisbee Fridays. Noah is one of the guys that Tony knows he can trust to have his back anytime.
Maid of Honor
Peyton is Jordan's youngest sister. Being five years apart, Jordan adored having a baby sister. Peyton did start to get a little bothersome when she wanted to play dinosaur in Jordan's dollhouse, but so it goes. Jordan was always very protective of her sisters, even if that meant bossing them around. Jordan also attended every basketball game she could of Peyton's; Peyton attended all of Jordan's events as well. Peyton might be a lot taller than Jordan now, but she will always be her little sister.
Groomsman
Will and Tony also lived in the same dorm their freshman year of college. During that year, they realized they both shared an interest in fascinating stories about developing technologies and their implementation in the world. This shared interest led to the formation of weekly discussion meetings that came to be known as the “Coworkers’ Lunch” and lasted all the way through their senior year. Aside from having the most interesting of discussions together, Will and Tony also served together as leaders in the campus ministry, Cru their senior year.
Bridesmaid
Autumn is Jordan's best friend from college. They met at the campus ministry Cru at Slippery Rock University. They were fast friends after Autumn decided to take Jordan's mom for a math class. They also ended up going on the same summer mission trip with Cru to Ocean City, Maryland. Autumn was a part of the first conversation that Tony and Jordan had, and she went on to play the surprise-giver for Tony when Jordan and Tony were long distance. Fond memories with Autumn include jamming to Taylor Swift/other pop songs any chance they got (Cru dances, short car rides, Bible study breaks, T-Swift concerts), planning out all sorts of different match-making scenarios, and having heart-to-hearts about boys, friends, and Jesus.
Groomsman
Josh is Tony’s cousin. Although they grew up in different states, every holiday and family gathering they were inseparable. From building forts in the woods, riding ATVs, and climbing trees, they always knew how to make some fun. Today, with Josh working as an engineer near Pittsburg and Tony studying in Ohio, they are only a short drive away to meet in Butler for weekend visits at Nonno and Nonna’s.
Bridesmaid
Natalie is Jordan's long-time camp pal! They met in Jordan's first year of high school at Camp Sonrise Mountain and were inseparable from the first day of camp (daily pictures were a must!), along with some other members of the friend group (e.g. Natalie's now-husband Brandon). Turns out Jordan and Natalie are also distant cousins! Natalie is always down for an adventure, and Jordan has always loved the extra push she has gotten from Natalie to be brave, have fun, and worship Jesus. While they don't often get to see one another, there is always a story (outlet mall cruising, Natalie's bachelorette party/bridal shower/wedding/prep, For King and Country concert, matchmaking fails,....).
Groomsman
David Farrell and Tony became friends through their involvement with the campus ministry, Cru. They attended the same Bible study all four years in college and worked together as leaders in Cru their senior year. David and Tony are both very competitive and have played everything from athletic games of spike ball to highly strategic board games both with and against each other. Even living states away, they still try to make time for a weekly game night so they can catch up and stay in touch.
Bridesmaid
Morgan is Tony’s younger sister. While Tony inherited the brains of the family, Morgan got the looks and the brains, which does not seem quite fair, but Tony has come to terms with it. While they may have had their fair share of arguing growing up, they still argue today just with bigger words. However, at the end of the day, they will always be family and want the best for each other. Morgan has just finished her degree in business and English from Penn State University. While Jordan was initially nervous about meeting Morgan, their mutual enjoyment of teasing Tony brought them close together.
Groomsman
Cameron and Tony attend high school together in Fairfax, Virginia where they were known to be the hardest working troublemakers in the chemistry lab. After graduating from the University of Virginia, Cameron has been preparing to attend medical school. Cameron and Tony, along with all the men from their high school Bible study have stayed in contact in the years since they graduated Trinity. Despite them all moving to various locations across the country they still talk frequently, get together for online game nights, and occasionally make road trips to each other’s weddings.
Junior Bridesmaid
Hailey is Jordan's first first cousin. Jordan was in the fifth grade when Hailey was born, and she was so excited to finally have a cousin! Hailey's goal in life was met in the last year when she was finally taller than Jordan. Jordan has always loved hearing about Hailey's life goals, some of which are a little more serious than that. She also is enjoying Hailey's sports (basketball, softball, and track), even if there isn't a lot of time to go to all of her games/meets. Jordan has watched Hailey turn into a beautiful young woman who loves her family.
Junior Groomsman
Caiden is Jordan's cousin (brother of Hailey). Caiden has always been a softie for all of his cousins (all girls). While he always loved his "boy" activities, he has always been the life of the party at family events with his goofy personality, endless jokes, facial expressions, and pondering questions. Tony and Caiden have had some nice conversations about Rubik's cubes and baseball. Summer time pool chats with Caiden have always been a fond memory for Jordan. Jordan has loved watching Caiden grow into a kind young man who doesn't mind putting on a tie once in a while.
