Wedding Party
Anela Kauo
Maid of Honor
Hi all! My name is Anela. I am 25 years old, a single mama of 2 staying warm in Phx, AZ. Ke'alohi is my first cousin & my first best friend. One of my earliest childhood memories is of us eating peaches in my kitchen and dying laughing because we kept dropping them. I am overjoyed that Spencer didn't drop this peach (: & to see Ke'alohi be loved the way she's always deserved!!
Joshua Andrews
Best Man
My name is Josh Andrews and I met Spencer when we were paired up serving a mission for the LDS church in Tahiti. We were together 24/7 for 4.5 months, so we got to know each other pretty dang well. He is a brother to me and I am honored to be his best man and help him celebrate finding a wonderful and kind person like Ke'alohi. It makes me happy to think of the life full of laughter that they will share. I remember how supportive and helpful Spencer was as a part of my wedding and I am looking forward to repaying that service.
Brooke Nielsen
Bridesmaid
Hi!! I'm Brooke. I am 22 years old. I was born and raised in Utah. I love cats, reading and music. I am currently a crazy cat lady with 4 cats of my own. I have been married to my amazing husband, Harley, for 4 years and my favorite color at the moment is (it changes frequently) lavender purple. My first time meeting Spencer was when he brought Keeks a cute "delivery" to work with a review sheet attached with questions like, "How cute was your delivery driver?", "How was your service?", etc. Honestly, it was the perfect example of the saying, "If he wanted to, he would." Just from that encounter I knew that Spencer was a great guy and deserving of my lovely friend Keeks. I am so happy for her and I wish them the happiest marriage!
Tiffani Prince
Bridesmaid
Hi, I'm Tiffany! I am 29 years young! I have been married to my husband for 2 years but, we have been together for 9! We are proud dog parents to a fur baby named Indi! I am a master Esthetician and currently work at Radiant Waxing! I actually met Keeks at esthetics school! She ever so kindly let me practice all kinds of treatments and services on her while we were learning! From doing her facials, driving to get sushi during lunch or randomly dancing behind the school, she made the experience unforgettable!!
Britta King
Bridesmaid
I'm Britta, one of Ke'alohi's bridesmaids! I enjoy cooking, jigsaw puzzles, watching movies, paint nights with my girl Ke'alohi, collecting too many house plants and frozen yogurt. I have a 4 year old sphynx cat and my boyfriend and I recently rescued a painted turtle. I live by Butterfield canyon which is one of my favorite drives in the fall season. I love my friends and family fiercely. I've known Keeks for several years! We lived in the same neighborhood and went to high school together. We automatically became friends. Everyone knows how much of a bright and welcoming light Ke'alohi is. She's always there to lend an ear, make you laugh or fight for you. Doing anything with Ke'alohi is a great joy. From hanging out at the park as teenagers, liking eachothers memes on facebook, having paint nights or calling at random times, every memory is filled with her contagious laughter and killer dance moves! Spencer and Ke'alohi are going to have one hell of a life together!!
Barbie Kenkel
Bridesmaid
My name is Barbie and I am 24 years old. I was born and raised in Orem, Utah. I am a full time mom of two girls & am currently residing in Santaquin with my family. I love my busy days spent being a mom from sun up til sun down and have found a newfound passion for golfing wherever I can chase perfect weather. I met Keeks about 5 years ago. I probably drove to Keeks house almost every single day. She is the type of friend you can sit at the counter with and talk to for hours about life and would always provide a shoulder to cry on through all of my silly high school breakups. Keeks was always hosting friends for dinner or a get togethers for holiday themed parties and she always put so much thought into making sure everyone was enjoying themselves. My favorite memory would be during one of these get togethers. As we were talking, it turned into us two laughing so hard that we were literally wheezing and then we realized everyone was staring at us with the most confused faces which made us laugh even harder. It was one of those moments where you could look at us both and just know we were thick as thieves.
Natalia Boutelle
Bridesmaid
I'm Natalia. I love to dance and play all types of games. My favorite memory with the bride is when we did the muddy dash together. We were falling, slipping and sliding so much! We got COVERED in mud! That's also where I met the groom for the first time!
Lauren Andrews
Bridesmaid
My name is Lauren Andrews. Spencer is a dear friend and was a groomsman to my husband, Josh. I am so excited to support and celebrate with him and Ke'alohi. I enjoy event planning, reading, decorating and spending time with the people I love. A perfect example is the Lantern Festival. Josh and I went with Spencer and Keeks. It was awesome to put our wishes and hopes up in the sky together. It was even better to see how happy these two are together. I am so glad they found each other.
Kade Thorne
Groomsman
I'm Kade and I am 23. I like video games, movies and hanging out with friends. I met Spencer at US Synthetic and I overheard him talking about anime with Christian (who is another groomsman) and argued with him about it. Funny story, he had some bad relationships in the past before his better half now, and he thought he wouldn't ever find the one so we made a bet. The bet was, if he found someone, he would have to tattoo his ballsack saying, "property of Kade" and if he didn't find the one, I would have to tattoo "property of Spencer." Safe to say that I am keeping mine and waiting until Keeks is done with them so I can have them.
Christian Jones
Groomsman
Hey i'm Christian and I am 25. My favorite color is blue. Some things about me is that i'm a nerd and I like gaming but, I also like jeeping and hunting. I met Spencer at US synthetic in the factory indy. I was making inappropriate jokes and he was chiming in. Then, a few weeks later, he was asking me what lightsaber he should get and that brought on the rest.
Evan Nuttall
Groomsman
Hey! My name is Evan. Spencer and I have been friends for a long time now. I currently live in Missouri, where I run a division that sells solar. My wife, Sage, and I have been married for a little over a year now and we love it!! Spencer and I met forever ago! Our mutual friend, Josh Andrews, invited us all to go to a movie together and we hit it off right off right away. I'm grateful that I've got to know a guy like Spencer and I'm extremely excited for him to be married to his beautiful bride. They are meant to be!
Hanale Herbert
Groomsman
Hi, my name is Hanale and I am 15 years old. My favorite hobbies are welding and playing guitar. My favorite memory of Ke'alohi and Spencer is when I got to record him proposing to her. I remember I was at school in science class and Spencer texted me, asking if I could help him propose to my sister and I ended up getting my phone taken away by the teacher for having it out. After school, I went home and waited a few hours for them to get home. We waited for Ke'alohi to to go back out with my mom. Spencer set up for the proposal at my house. He laid roses on the ground and wrote notes. When she finally got home, she struggled to get the door open. When she finally managed to get the door open, her face just lit up and it made me so happy to see my sister like that.
Caleb Reynolds
Groomsman
My name is Caleb Reynolds and I am currently a general manager of a Crumbl cookies! Spencer and I met on one fateful day at an amazing cabin in the woods and well, I could not help but to become amazing friends with a guy like him!! From that moment, it was like we had known each other our whole lives. Those couple days are some of my fondest memories! Spencer is freaking amazing and I am grateful that we are friends!
Aaron Apgood
Groomsman
Hello! My name is Aaron Apgood! I am 29 years old and my favorite color is Orange. When asked what my favorite event with Spencer is, many memories do come to mind. The one that sticks out the most is the time we went out to the gun range up in West Mountain with another friend of outs. We may or may not have shot some tanerite that exploded a blasting grit barrel. I don't remember exactly who shot it but that is definitely one of my favorite memories because when the barrel blew up we all look at each other with the same look "Bro did you see that?!"
