Wedding Party
Brittany Parker
Matron of Honor
Bri is my person. For the last decade we have spent time living across the hall from each other all the way to 5 hours apart but our friendship hasn't skipped a beat. I like to take full credit for being the reason her and her husband Justin started dating (the second time). Bri is the sister I never had and my best good life long friend. She speaks her mind and teaches me something daily. I couldn't imagine planning a wedding with anyone else by my side.
Suzanna Crooch
Bridesmaid
Suz has been in my corner through just about every phase of life. In high school she trusted me to throw her in the air and then in college when by no other hand but God's her and Bri became roommates we got our third musketeer. Suz and I have been on too many adventures to count and now we are just adding one more to our list.
Emily Harrell
Bridesmaid
Emily was my big sister in my sorority but has been so much more to me over the years. From knowing exactly what I was thinking (we are the same person according to a personality test) to hiding with me in pantries and bathtubs so we could eat cheetos in peace, to all of the nonsense we caused because we just love the Bears. There aren't many girls in the world who I could text about football and the bachelor on the same day.
Emilia Barrick
Bridesmaid
Emilia and I have done it all. From cheering on the Pioneers at every event there was to writing an entire yearbook together to living together in college. We've been there got the t-shirt and survived to tell about it. If it wasn't for E I probably wouldn't even own eye shadow (even though I don't wear it) and I would still not know the glories of a great Goodwill find.
Danielle Lechtenberg
Bridesmaid
Danielle came into my life when I was an Athletic Trainer at NSU. There was no way when I moved to Tahlequah that I could have possibly known how much I needed her in my life, but I did. Danielle cooked for me when I was broke, held my hand when I was scared of what was next, and loved to encourage my "broken" behavior. Danielle has been one of my biggest fans over the last several years and I am so excited to spend this season with her by my side.
Nicholas Brill
Best Man
Brill has been my guy for a while now. We played baseball on the same team when we were 12 (we won the championship of course) and have been pretty close friends ever since. In high school we bonded over NCAA Football on PS3. There were many nights we stayed up until 2-3-4 AM playing. If I had to guess I would say the overall record is 1054 wins for me and 686 wins for Brill. Just a rough estimate though. Overall, Brill is a great friend and I am lucky that he is standing beside me on our special day!
Blaine Crouse
Groomsman
I'd have to say that Blaine is my longest tenured friend, mainly because he is my brother. When he came into this world when I was 4 years old, God knew exactly what I needed. We may have fought like cats and dogs when we were younger but what doesn't kill you makes you stronger right? I think our relationship is as strong as it has ever been. I'm lucky to have a little brother like him and glad we get to spend this milestone together.
Tyler Littlejohn
Groomsman
Tyler and I go wayyyy back! I think we started playing sports together when I was about 8 years old or something like that. Since then we have moved 2000+ miles apart, and are still good friends. I think that is a testament to a great friendship! From the nights at Whiskey 101 to my house and everywhere in between, I couldn't ask for a better friend. Lucky to get to have this guy stand by me at my wedding!
Blane OBannon
Groomsman
Blane and I have been friends for a while now! We played baseball together when we were just learning what the world was about. Since then we took about a 10 year hiatus, but our friendship never wavered. In January 2017, I was ready to move back from my 2 year stint in Chattanooga and this guy was the first to offer me a position at Planet Fitness and let me come back to my hometown. Even though he sucks at golf, I'm proud to call Blane a good friend and excited to spend this day with him by my side!
Ryan Berry
Groomsman
I don't know if there is enough space in this box to tell the story of Ryan! This guy is one of the funniest and goofiest guys that I know. However, there is a side in there somewhere that he has that makes him a great friend. He cares about people. One time in Seattle, he was trying to give a homeless person a $10 bill and the guy had the nerve to say "I think I see a $20 bill in that wallet." If it were me I would have taken my $10 back, but not Berry. Thankful for some funny memories with this guy and can't wait to make some more on my wedding day.
