Wedding Party
Emma Benson
Maid of Honor
My best friend since 3rd grade. :) Emma has been my constant friend and supporter. Emma and I met in 2nd grade when we were on the same basketball team. We were fast friends. We have a sister-like relationship-we fight and we laugh-through it all. I can count on Em to always sheepishly ask me to braid her hair when we are together.
Marinn Longenecker
Bridesmaid
Sister of the bride! My favorite memory of my sister was when we would fight and play in the backseat while riding to go camping at a new campground every summer. Marinn, you have inspired me and have made me laugh so much and I am so grateful for you. :)
Alisen Vrabel
Bridesmaid
One of my best friends since middle school. :) Alisen and I met in 7th grade when we were in the same humanities class. She has been a close friend ever since. She makes me laugh and annoys me to my wits end, but I love her so much. I can count on her to always beat me in cards mercilessly. Alisen lives far away but when we are together it is like no time has passed at all. So excited to celebrate with her.
Jacqueline Briceno
Bridesmaid
My sweet college friend from freshman year to now. Jackie has shaped me into a calmer person, and has been with me through all of college's weird turns. Jackie is the type of person to always care about the things you care about, and constantly shows love to people by listening to them. I'm so excited to celebrate with her.
Josephine McGee
Bridesmaid
One of my best friends from college, Jojo is the quirkiest, most fun girl. Jojo and I have spent so much time together that we pick up on so many of each others nuances. Sometimes I feel like I am talking to myself. Jojo encourages me to be myself everyday. She has shown me more joy and laughter in a few years than I would have ever imagined.
Coralyn Bradley
Bridesmaid
My soon-to-be sister-in-law. :) Coralyn has always greeted people with excitement and grace. Coralyn is a beacon of positivity and happiness, and I look up to her for that. I am so excited to become closer to her and I am beyond excited to celebrate with her!
Claire McKern
Flower Girl
Claire is Sydney's younger cousin. Sydney was in Claire's parents wedding as the flower girl when she was about 6. We are so excited to have Claire do the same for us. :)
Elizabella Bradley
Flower Girl
Ella is Kurtis' youngest sister. We wanted to include this undervalued member of the Bradley family in our special day. She's cute, give her a break.
Malcolm Anderson
Best Man
My best friend since birth. If you know me you've met Malcolm or at least heard me tell stories of our wacky adventures. This guy has helped me through the very worst and supported me at my very best. He's been a steady iron to sharpen me throughout my life.
Kenneth Bradley
Groomsman
My younger brother and close friend. Kenny has been my fighting buddy, playmate, and partner in crime (not literally, although...). He's always supported and challenged me to be a kind and humble older brother. Through our ups and downs I've always had my little brother to help me get through. His laugh is contagious and all my dance moves are his fault.
James Walker
Groomsman
My longtime traveling buddy. James has always been a source of wise advice and counsel in my life. This selfless man has patiently listened to my many words countless times. Always up for an adventure, always ready to learn. He's been my friend through it all.
Daniel Cools
Groomsman
My arch enemy growing up. Dan was always down for a competitive game of any shape or size. He's pushed me to be the best I can be in sports, work, and life. He's given his time, energy, and resources to me time and time again over the years.
Silas Mount
Groomsman
My dear old friend. I've clashed in many a deep debate with Silas. A man who has sharpened me intellectually, spiritually, and mentally. Even though we've lived more than 2500 miles apart for most of our lives Silas has been a close brother to me.
Benjamin Cools
Groomsman
My good friend Ben has been a constant support through the years. He makes me laugh and keeps me in line. Although he is younger than me, I've always looked up to Ben. Ben is a joy to me and constantly a tried and true friend.
Joshua Parkin
Officiant
Josh is the leader of Valley View Youth Group where we met. He has always supported and encouraged us as a couple and we are so excited for him to be part of our day. :)
Chris Larvick
Emcee
Chris was Sydney's youth leader at Valley View Church when Sydney was a student there. Chris (and Cindy) Larvick are-according to them-the "fun parents". (haha) Chris and Cindy have taken Sydney and Marinn on countless adventures and hosted so many fun game nights. They are part of Sydney's family. Chris and Kurtis are hockey buddies.
