Matron of Honor
Hey y'all, I’m Jaime! I’m a teacher, Air Force wife, and mom to beautiful little girl and 2 active pups. We are currently stationed in Charleston, SC and are super grateful to be back in the south! I graduated from Georgia Southern in 2014 with Rachel. Rachel and I were in the same pledge class in Omega Phi Alpha. She was constantly asking me to join her at “Don’s,” a well-known pizza place in Statesboro. We hit it off quickly and became bffs. We’ve stood by each other through so much and I’m honored to stand by her (and Josh!) on their wedding day.
Bridesmaid
Hi! I'm Julia. I am a first grade teacher and proud dog mom. I love to read, run, and cook. Rachel and I first met in undergrad at Georgia Southern University in bio lab. We were blessed to be grouped together and I was drawn instantly to her dry sense of humor! Rachel ended up rushing O Phi A, and we've been besties ever since!
Bridesmaid
My name is Laura Parkinson and the beautiful bride to be, Rachel, is my cousin and oldest friend. It is an awesome thing to watch someone you love go through so many seasons, from graduating high school, to going to college, becoming a dog momma, earning their doctorate, and best of all finding their future spouse! I have so many memories of us talking about boys and day dreaming about finally having our first boyfriend! Time flies! Rachel stood by my side on my wedding day and I am honored that I get to do the same for her! I am so happy that Rachel met Josh, and I know that she will make the most beautiful bride and wife!
Groomsman
Siwan's relationship with Josh dates back to the days before cell phones became standard and Myspace dominated the social media field. From boxing in front of the library, to playing football at the field, their relationship has spanned the tribulations of middle school and high school into what is now old age. Though they have not lived in the same state together for more than a decade, their friendship remains constant. It was an honor to include Siwan in the wedding.
Groomsman
Hello there! My name is Stefan (pronounced like Stephen, Steven, or Stephan) and I am the younger brother to Joshua. I am currently in my junior year at the University of Colorado in Boulder and I am studying Biochemistry and hoping to get into medical school when I graduate. I first met Rachel at my brother's graduation and instantly knew that in the time to come I would be watching her walk down the aisle to become Joshua’s wife. I am proud to soon call her my sister in law and can’t wait to be at the wedding. See you there!
