Wedding Party

Nick Stary

Best Man

Nick and Josh met while attending EMT school in 2018 and quickly became friends. They lived together for two years in Costa Mesa and these two have enjoyed many adventures together ranging from hikes out in Joshua Tree to paddle boarding in Newport. Stay tuned for his best man speech because it is sure to be entertaining.

McKenna Clubb

Matron of Honor

McKenna is the perfect definition of a little sister...Kayla can remember when they used to share a room (driving each other crazy), picking on their brother Dalt, showing horses, spending nights on the trampoline, getting in arguments, stealing each other's clothes, being a shoulder to cry on, but most importantly, always being there for one another. Kayla couldn't be more thankful for Kenna always hearing about Kayla's problems and helping her get through some of the toughest times of her life!

Josiah Diaz

Groomsman

Josiah was Josh’s first EMT partner working on an ambulance and the two quickly became good friends. They started working out together regularly and playing madden tournaments at Josiah’s house. When COVID hit and the gyms closed, these two decided to make their own gym equipment with supplies from Home Depot in an attempt to stay active.

Savannah Scott

Maid of Honor

Kayla and Savannah met when they were in 7th and 6th grade, respectively, and were attached at the hip growing up. They played volleyball and basketball together, got ready together for dances, traveled to all of the FNLs, been there for each other through boy drama, and both gained another sister. When Kayla moved down to SoCal, leaving her family meant leaving her best friend which was really hard. Luckily, a couple years later, Savannah moved down to Irvine so the two have been able to hangout again:) The two have been best friends for over 15 years and plan on causing havoc in the nursing homes when they are older lol.

Dalton Heikes

Groomsman

Dalton is Kayla’s younger brother and ever since him and Josh met they have both hit it off. The two have had a lot of opportunities to become close between summer trips to the beach and vacationing in Montana. Currently, Dalton goes to school and plays football in Nebraska, but it is always a fun time when he is able to visit.

Emma Gleason

Bridesmaid

Emma is Kayla's brother's (Dalton) fiancé (lots of wedding for the fam lol). When Kayla moved, she was worried about her little brother since she had always been there to take care of him. Then shortly, Emma came back into Dalt's life and as Kayla was hearing about how he was prioritizing school more and not being influenced by his friends, Kayla knew that Emma was good for him. While Emma and Kayla have been in different states, this relationship has grown over the holiday visits and beach house trips!

Nick Beeson

Groomsman

Nick and Josh met through Josh’s best man and ended up living together for a year when COVID first hit. Nick has helped Josh improve his cooking skills a lot and can bake some of the best cookies you’ll ever try. Look for him out on the dance floor as he has some legendary moves.

Aleigh Scott

Bridesmaid

The life of the party! Being Savannah's younger sister and the same age as McKenna, the 4 girls spent a lot of time together when they were younger. You can always count on Aleigh to make you laugh! Her and Kayla lived with each other for a short amount of time in Orange County until Covid hit. The girls spent many hours battling over Just Dance and would spend Sunday mornings watching the CMT countdown. Get ready for her dance moves!

Eric Vegas

Groomsman

Eric and Josh met in 2011 while playing baseball/going to school in Santa Cruz. They lived together with Vinny during the next school year and even though Eric and Josh live in different cities now, they still say stay in touch and plan trips when they can.

Ashley Estrella

Bridesmaid

The oldest of the Thorpe siblings, Ashley and Kayla have always understood each other/made jokes of the younger siblings. Kayla is so excited to live close to Ashley (and her family) out in Idaho! Kayla looks up to Ashley as a mother and is excited to spend more time with her family!

Vinny Augustine

Groomsman

Vinny and Josh also met in 2011 while playing baseball and going to school in Santa Cruz. After the first year at school the two decided to move in together with Eric during the next school year. This lead to many adventures during that time which have continued over the years.

McKinsey Thorpe

Bridesmaid

Josh's middle sister and also the reason Kayla and Josh met! Kinsey lived in Irvine when Josh and Kayla first started seeing each other, allowing Kayla to get close with her and create fun memories together! Kayla couldn't be more thankful for Kinsey always being there for them and for creating such fun memories!

Gabe Kirk

Groomsman

Gabe and Josh met in 2021 and had the opportunity to live together for a year. Gabe is always trying to convince Josh to run more and Josh is still working on getting gabe to lift weights more often. Regardless of their different styles, the two enjoy staying active together and are always trying to bring each other out of their comfort zone.

Kieley Thorpe

Bridesmaid

The baby of the Thorpe gang! Kieley has an adventurous soul (just coming back from traveling for almost a year) and has a sweet heart. She's quiet yet funny and Kayla admires her strength and determination. It's always a great time when Kayla gets to spend time with Kieley.
