Jami Hutcheson

Bridesmaid

I am the bride’s fun loving aunt who feels truly blessed to be able to share this day with Jewel and Joshua. I have enjoyed watching Jewel grow up to be a beautiful, loving, kind hearted, compassionate, and absolutely hilarious young woman with a heart for God. I am so proud of her and all she has accomplished. I am very thankful for Jewel (Jewah) not only for being my personal trainer and my Bachelor/Bachelorette buddy, but for the true friendship that we have. I love her dearly and can not wait for the big day! (One other tidbit...I am also the proud mom of Owen and Cody, Jewel’s deeply devoted Ring Security Team. 💍)

I have known Jewel pretty much my entire life! I have always looked up to her as a big sister ever since we were little. We understand each other’s humor and have always laughed at the little things.
