Wedding Party
Allison Krok
Bride
"I met Brent during a time in my life when I thought I was done chasing fairytales. But now he has shown me through love and patience that he was my fairytale all along. Thanks for finally finding me, my love."
Brent Arthur
Groom
"Everyone said I'd find her when I wasn't looking. Both God and the dog had other plans when I was clearing out space and for more peace for myself. So glad I took a chance to ask that beautiful woman at the park to let me take her to dinner - I had no idea we'd be inseparable after that. Love you, Babe!"
Samantha Raisbeck
Maid of Honor
"The first time we met was in one of Comms classes at the I. What I love most is that we immediately clicked and matched each other's energy and share the same humor. Our friendship is light, it's full of understanding, and we're growing and learning from each other every day."
Alexander Trop
Best Man
“Brent and I first crossed paths in 3rd grade, bonding over The Hobbit at recess, proof that great friendships are built on great books. Though we were in different classes, our friendship only deepened through high school, where we shared the stage in musicals and plays, worked backstage, served as Thespian Officers, and proudly embraced our inner needs. I could not be more thrilled to celebrate the Wedding of the Century between Allie and Brent - a day as epic as any story we once read. Brent's friendship is one I treasure dearly, and I know neither of us would be the same person without it."
Kayla Ballard
Maid of Honor
"Our friendship started when Allie courageously (or recklessly?) agreed to attend a BBQ at my house just minutes after we matched on BumbleBFF. Five years later, she's still the person I call for everything - from navigating life's toughest heartaches to our wildest nights out. We've been by each other's side through every adventure, and while she's technically marrying her soulmate, she's still mine. (Don't worry, I promise to behave....mostly.)
Russell Moser
Best Man
"Russell was Brent’s archrival in High School (even though he didn’t know it) until their choir director had the gall to put them in the same room on choir tour. It was then that Brent realized the error of his ways and ever since they have been the best of friends, roommates, coworkers, and board game buddies. Russell would like Brent to know that as a gesture of goodwill he will not ask Allie to dance at their wedding."

"Allie - The first time that we met, I had no idea how important of a person you were going to be in my life. You have turned into one of the most pure, intelligent, and most comforting people in my corner. Our friendship feels like home to me and I couldn't imagine a life without you in it. You inspire and motivate me daily and I have loved watching you grow into an amazing woman!"
Benjamin Arthur
Groomsman
"Reflecting on our relationship is a very emotional thing to do. Our lives have been filled with nothing but happiness, laughter, joy, and a slew of amazing memories from our adventures together. We’ve laughed, we’ve cried and laughed some more. Everything from our kiddos taking advantage of their uncle while being watched to car rides in the back of a police car 😳. We’re finding it impossible to recall anything that doesn’t bring a smile to our faces and warmth to the soul. You are one in a million Brent and we couldn’t love you more. Allie is going straight to heaven for choosing you, what a doll. We’re confident the two of you are going to live a long and happy life together and we cant wait to be a small part of your story! We love you both so much! Cheers!"
Megan Rees
Bridesmaid
"I have adored Allie from the minute I met her! She has been everything I ever hoped Brent would find in a future wife! She has become as much of a dear friend to me as he has been these 20+ years. Here's to many more cruises together!"
Ryan Loveland
Groomsman
"Brent has been a very close friend for many years. We love so many of the same things, including God, Christ, Games, Relationships and showing love for others. We have spent hours and hours battling in board games. More importantly we have spent hours and hours rejoicing over how very perfect our Heavenly Fathers plan is and how much we appreciate Jesus Christ and His atonement. Brent is one of few eternal brothers that I know I will have countless more adventures with throughout eternity. Love you forever Brent!"
Siera Turpin
Bridesmaid
"Allie and I met over a bowl of chips and salsa when she applied to work at Nightingale. Our connection was instant, and we barely talked about the job at all. Instead, we spent the time getting to know one another and laughing. She made me feel so comfortable and that's when I knew I wanted to be her friend. Since then, Allie and I have grown close, and our friendship is something I cherish every day. She is funny, beautiful, witty, and an amazing friend. I am excited and thankful to be a part of her journey and can't wait for her wedding day!"
Ian Havens
Groomsman
"I've been friends with Brent since high school, and he's always been my most cheerful friend. Every time I see him, he's in a great mood about something, and Allie matches his energy every step of the way. I'm so happy to see these two being married, and I'm honored to be a part of the wedding party."
Keegan Olsen
Bridesmaid
"Who knew meeting in our high school chemistry class would lead to a lifelong friendship? Our friendship to me is knowing no matter the amount of time or distance between our conversations, it feels like we just talked yesterday and I can always count on you being there for me! So excited to celebrate you and this next chapter!"
Matt Krantz
Groomsman
"I am so excited to share this day with Brent and his amazing wife to be. Brent is one of the most authentic friends I have. He is truly without guile. He is a wonderful man that is being made even better by a wonderful woman."

"The way Brent came into my life is not typical. As a former student of my wife, he was once simply someone who helped her at school. Now, he is sometimes like a son, other times like a little brother, but always a friend and an equal whose loyalty is unmatched. I will cherish his friendship forever."
