Wedding Party
Kimber Schmidt
Bride
My story is one of patience, love, and trusting the timing of life. I value deep connections, meaningful moments, and the people who have walked with me through every season. Grounded by family, strengthened by friendship, and guided by my heart, I believe love is something you choose every day. Today, I step into this next chapter with gratitude, joy, and a love that truly feels like home.
Race Leatherwood
Groom
He is kind, thoughtful, and endlessly patient—but also one of the most fun people I know, always bringing laughter and adventure wherever he goes. Grounded by his values and guided by his heart, he makes life brighter and love feel effortless. Today, he joins me in this next chapter, and I couldn’t imagine a better partner to walk beside.
Sydney Pedigo
Matron of Honor
My cousin has always been so much more than family to me—she’s been my constant, my safe place, and one of the greatest blessings in my life. From childhood memories to growing into the women we are today, she has been by my side through every season, offering unconditional love, steady support, and guidance when I needed it most. Having her stand beside me on our wedding day truly means the world to me, because there’s no one I trust or admire more. As an incredible mother and wife, she inspires me daily, and I’m so grateful to have her wisdom, strength, and heart to guide me as I step into this new chapter. I will always cherish and be thankful for the 21-year friendship, laughter, love, and memories we share—and for the many more still to come.
Curtis Yenkai
Best Man
In just a year, he’s become the groom’s ultimate partner-in-crime—bonding over their shared love of cars, capturing epic photos, and somehow turning even the simplest moments into full-on adventures. He brings nonstop energy, quick humor, and a natural ability to make everyone around him feel relaxed and have a good time, which makes him exactly the kind of guy you want standing beside you on a day this important. Whether he’s hyping everyone up, making memories behind the camera, or keeping the mood light when it matters most, he always shows up in the best way. And, of course, when all else fails, he’s the one you can count on to get up on the groom’s shoulders and take the celebration to the next level.
EmmaLee Dixon
Maid of Honor
For 18 years, she has been my person—my constant through every chapter, every change, every mile of distance, and even across different countries, our friendship has never wavered. No matter where life took us or how much time passed, she was always home to me, a safe place filled with understanding, laughter, and unconditional love. We’ve grown up together, shared countless memories, and supported each other through both the best moments and the hardest seasons, and that bond has only grown stronger with time. Having her stand beside me on our wedding day is one of the greatest honors of my life, and I’m endlessly grateful for a friendship that has truly stood the test of time—and will continue for a lifetime.
