Wedding Party
Rebekah Highfill
Matron of Honor
Kambra and Rebekah became good friends while working as audiologists together at Ascension Via Christi. Rebekah and her husband, Adam (one of the groomsmen), introduced Taylor and Kambra and they are a big part of their story! Rebekah enjoys gardening and trying different recipes to cook/bake in the kitchen.
Andrew Mayfield
Best Man
Andrew is Taylor's brother and one of his best friends. They both went to WSU for engineering school and even worked together at Boeing in OKC for a few years. Andrew is still down in OKC working for Boeing as a software engineer and thriving. He is a big OKC Thunder fan and loves going to games. One of their favorite sports memories together was going to the NBA Western Conference Finals together to watch the Thunder beat the 73-9 Golden State Warriors. Or maybe sitting together in the Student Section to watch WSU in the Final Four. Hard to choose.
Ashley Mather
Bridesmaid
Ashley and Kambra have been close friends since their freshman year of high school. Go Aces! They have supported each other through the good times and hard times, even when living over a thousand miles apart. Ashley attended seminary and received her Masters in Divinity to become an Episcopal priest. She was ordained in early 2020. She currently lives in Washington with her husband, Taylor, and their son, Parker.
Caleb Smith
Groomsman
Taylor met Caleb in the fraternity in college. It wasn't until Taylor moved back to Wichita after living in OKC that they reconnected and became much closer. Taylor and Caleb have been on many trips together all over the country. Caleb's travelling spirit became his lifestyle, as he is currently living in NYC after selling his house and buying a camper van. He now works at a company that builds camper vans as well!
Shelby Barnhardt
Bridesmaid
Shelby and Kambra met while working together as audiologists at Via Christi. Shelby and her husband, Adam, introduced Kambra and Taylor to their new favorite Christmas holiday tradition, 24 Days of Shots. She is a dog mom to three very sweet, very large breed dogs and one diva cat.
Rob Mies
Groomsman
Taylor met Rob in college and have been great friends ever since. Rob was the only witness for Taylor's first and only hole-in-one. So if you don't believe it, ask him. Rob is the CFO for his family's business, MDI. He's originally from Philadelphia, and is a die hard Philly Sports fan as well as a Shocker fan. It's basically his entire personality, and I think his picture speaks to that. Their bond over everything sports is a big part of their friendship.
Bryana Doman
Bridesmaid
Bryana and Kambra entered the same friend group at the same time. Bryana started dating her boyfriend, Ben Loewen (one of the groomsmen), at the same time Kambra and Taylor started dating. Bryana and Kambra both went to their first NFL game together to watch the Chiefs vs. Chargers in LA. Bryana is the ultimate hype woman and is so much fun to be around! She currently lives in Colorado with her boyfriend, Ben, and their two kitties.
Ben Loewen
Groomsman
Taylor also met Ben in college initially, but became closer once Taylor moved back to Wichita. They also worked at Spirit together for a few years until Ben moved out to Denver, CO where he currently lives with his girlfriend, Bryana (one of the bridesmaids) and works as an engineering contractor for Sierra Nevada. Taylor and Ben are both on a quest to watch a Chiefs game at every NFL Stadium. So far, they've gone to Nashville, LA, Denver, and also went to the AFC Championship game at Arrowhead this past season.
Brooke Ford
Bridesmaid
Kambra met Brooke through Taylor's friend group. Brooke immediately welcomed Kambra into the group and invited her to hangouts. Brooke lives here in Wichita with her husband, Ben (one of the groomsmen), and sweet dog, Luna. She works as Director of Programs for Big Brothers Big Sisters. She is passionate about her job, loves listening to Taylor Swift, and enjoys relaxing with a glass of wine.
Ben Ford
Groomsman
Ben and Taylor became close friends very quickly. All it took was one round of golf. Now they go on annual golf trips to Colorado with Caleb and Ben Loewen. Ben's other interests include Batman, Ireland and knowing every country's national flag. He is married to Brooke Ford, one of the bridesmaids.
Megan Ellwood
Bridesmaid
Megan and Kambra met in grad school and quickly became great friends. They have traveled to many different places together, including Columbus, San Antonio, Colorado, California, and even Haiti. Megan has witnessed Kambra's hangry mood swings more than once and has still remained her friend. Megan lives in Oklahoma with her husband, Derek, and their two daughters, Addyson and Brecklyn.
Adam Highfill
Groomsman
Taylor and Adam have been close friends since they were about 5 years old. Their families are also very close and have gone on multiple vacations together. They also now have an annual tradition to watch Chiefs playoff games and Super Bowls together. Adam and Taylor also went to countless Shocker basketball games together while they were in college. Adam and his wife Bekah (the Matron of Honor) were also responsible for this entire wedding, since they introduced Kamie and Taylor.
