Wedding Party
Tori
Maid of Honor
Tori is my number one FUN girl & bestie of 14 years! We met at church camp when we were 12 years old and basically grew up together. In high school, Tori begged me to go on a date with Christian (go to the home page to read the whole story). She has been 100% for us for years, but ultimately she's been my best cheerleader for as long as I can remember. We went to Mizzou after high school and were roomies for 4 years. We have walked through hard seasons together, joyful ones, and survived long distance when I lived in Africa. She's still my fav and best girl for life.
Andy
Best Man
Brother, best man. Born second but always striving for first in everything. Most likely seen running in short shorts, watching Seinfeld or fishing. Is extremely loyal and has always stood by my side. Not to be underestimated on a dance floor. Can tell you what the clouds do.
Maddy
Maid of Honor
Maddy is my younger sister, built in friend for life & MOH. We have walked through every stage of life quite literally right in step with each other. From chasing the ice-cream truck, playing with American Girl Dolls to sharing the same car when we got our drivers license and sharing the same house in college... we've done it all together. She's witty, hilarious, and bold. Madison is a party planner, a servant, and a get stuff done kinda girl. The absolute BEST MOH & sissa you could ask for.
Chandler
Groomsman
Friend, brother in law. Travel partner and always seeking an adventure. Most likely seen getting on a plane, watching Chiefs/blues/basically any sport or at the lake. Will always bring the tunes to the party and always manages to get me to dance a little. Can tell you if you're making your flights.
Marlowe
Bridesmaid
Marlowe & I met at church when we were little kids, but we didn't start hanging out until Marlowe became friends with Daniel & Christian in high school. Marlowe has been a sister to me and my best friend for so long. From making rap videos together (with Christian's mom), to living with each other, sharing bedrooms & sending each other over seas for the gospel... there really isn't a way to describe the depth of our friendship in such a short space. So I'll just say this- our friendship is lifelong, one of the good ones, and such a gift from God.
Daniel
Groomsman
Friend, hobby enthusiast, doctor. Has been the biggest advocate for Jordan and I being together. Is not afraid to tell me I'm wrong and has always kept me moving forward. Most likely seen starting a project, watching a movie, or eating japanese food. Can tell you if your eyeball is broken.
Morgan
Bridesmaid
Morgan and I met in Jr. High school and we became fast friends. I went to church camps in the summers with Morg and we bonded over playing piano and taking photos. We went to homecoming dances with friends together, spent summer days at the lake and we have a mutual love for chocolate chips and watermelon. College separated us by distance, but we have only continued to grow and strengthen each other over the years in a beautiful way. Our friendship is forever and I'm so blessed by her.
Nathan
Groomsman
Friend, captain. Sneaky good at any sport, especially one he has no experience in. Most likely seen buying a car, growing grass, or driving a boat. Never shies away from a challenge and isn't afraid to ask me hard questions. Can tell you how to keep more dollars in April.
Sarah
Bridesmaid
The first time I met Sarah was at Christian's house for Friendsgiving but Sarah doesn't remember it at all. Haha. A month later Sarah hosted Daniel and I's joined 22nd birthday party. We bonded this night and became instant friends. Sarah and her husband Hunter became family to me and also role models for what a beautiful marriage looks like. Sarah helped me prep to move over seas & became such a strong support to me while I lived there. I helped Sarah pack up their house before they moved to California and basically we have been long distance most of our friendship and I love her more than I have words for.
Grant
Groomsman
Friend, Bear. Will always tell you exactly what's on his mind. Has always helped me visualize my thoughts and brainstorm ideas. Most likely seen yelling at sporting events, manning the grill or biking. Can tell you the best way to sell anything. Sic em’
Nicole
Bridesmaid
I met Nicole when I worked for the IMB. We met in Virginia where we spent 6 weeks together preparing to move overseas. I moved to Africa and Nicole moved to Portugal. A few months later when I went to Europe for a team conference, I took time to vacation to Portugal to spend time with her. After our terms ended, we both moved back to Springfield MO. During this transition, Nicole was doing videography and she helped encourage me to start my photography business. We tag teamed a couple of weddings, traveled to NYC together, and started double dating. Our friendship was right on time, so good, and so God.
Tyler
Groomsman
Friend, golf partner, analyzing life’s deep questions. Most likely seen on the golf course, cheering on the KC Chiefs or mixing up a little swing oil. Has the best memory of anyone I know and will always follow up on everything I tell him. Can tell you the best way to swing a golf club.
