Andy and the groom have been through all the highs and lows together and have become an inseparable pair. Andy has recently graduated from nursing school and plans to _____________.

Taylor Trojan

Maid of Honor

Taylor and the bride became the best of friends after being sworn enemies on their high school cheer team.

Aiden Clevinger

Lily Bray

Bridesmaid

Lily and the bride met when she was randomly assigned as a roommate their junior/ senior year of college. The first question Lily asked the bride and other roommates was "what are y'alls favorite desserts". If you think her salted brownie cookies are the best, you should try talking to their baker!

Garren and the groom have been brothers since Garren moved in across the street at age four.
