Lauren & Daniel
Wedding Party
Hannah Johnson
Matron of Honor
Hannah and I met in college and our friendship has grown stronger ever since! Spiritually, emotionally and in every way Hannah is the definition of a wonderful friend! No matter how far away we are Hannah is always there for me. She’s been there with me through both my darkest and happiest moments, always cheering me on and being my biggest cheerleader. I’m so proud of the wife, mother and friend she is. I truly could not imagine this day without her!
Carly Sadler
Matron of Honor
We met as bridesmaids in a wedding and have now been bridesmaids in each other’s weddings! Carly is part of our story of how Danny & I met and I’m so thankful! She’s been there through thick and thin and is truly the most loving person! Carly is truly one of a kind and is the happiest person to enter the room. Having her in my life brings me so much joy!
Skylar Brown
Bridesmaid
Skylar and I are pledge sisters from Auburn but our friendship grew after we graduated and both moved to Birmingham. Skylar is always a phone call away when I need her and shares the same love of travel that I do. She’s always down for a fun trip or an hour phone call catching up. She’s the Monica to my Rachel and I’m very thankful for our shared love of Schmitt’s Creek. Skylar has always been my blunt but always supportive presence in my life and I think no one was more surprised at our friendship than we were. Skylar just moved to Texas so it’s nice having a piece of home in Texas!
Madison Carpenter
Bridesmaid
Madison and I met by being in the same Flight Attendant training group at American Airlines. With Madison’s fun personality it wasn’t hard to instantly become friends with her. Realizing we both went through some of the same personal struggles we immediately had an emotional bond as well. Even being at different bases not a week has gone by where we haven’t checked on each other. We’ve made the joke we are soul sisters because even through our dating lives we’ve been the same. I’m so thankful to have a loving and supportive friend like Madison in my life.
Emily Bentley
Bridesmaid
Emily and I lived down the street from each other in Auburn for our entire time we were in college. I was Emily’s honorary 4th roommate and it wasn’t unusual for Emily to come home to me sitting on their couch. Moving to Birmingham after graduation our friendship just continued to grow. Emily truly helped make Birmingham feel like home for me. She’s always been there without judgment and down for a fun trip at a moments notice.
Jessica Mansfield
Bridesmaid
Jessica and I met each other when truly we were going through the hardest parts of our lives. Having someone walking the same journey I was truly was the biggest blessing God could have given me. She’s been my spiritual rock ever since she stepped into my life and I truly do not know what I would do without her. She’s been an important part of mine and Danny’s relationship and I’m so thankful we have been able to be there and support each other.
Sara Habersmith
Bridesmaid
Sara is my work bestie at American Airlines. She was my lead FA on my first work trip with American who ended up becoming my neighbor in Dallas. Our long walks together in our days off, dinner & movie nights have truly been some of my favorite memories since moving to Texas. She’s always there whether it’s answering my 10000 work questions or making a Trader Joe’s run. She makes life fun for everyone around her!
Hope Immonmen
Bridesmaid
Hope is one of my dearest friends. We met when both of us were in nursing school and both decided to change careers and go into medical sales. Hope has been a true friend from day 1. She’s been one of my biggest (and sassiest) supporters in my life. Always there for me when I have needed her no matter how far the distance between us. I had the honor of getting to stand by Hope as she married her husband Tim and I can’t wait to see her become a mom this June! Hope and I share the same birthday so we shall see if her daughter gets to share the day with us too!
Ian Ekery
Best Man
We went from complete strangers to the best of friends through a simple photo of Whitey Ford and Bob Gibson posted in his locker. Baseball is what brought us together but the friendship and bond we have developed over the years through all walks of life can never be outmatched. Ian has been the true definition of a best friend in what the definition of the word has to offer. As we so like to call it, he's my ride or die. Also voted "cutest couple at UMHB" for multiple years. Thanks for the good times and looking forward to many more. Glad to have you as my right hand man on this day.
Jacob Rash
Groomsman
PT school brought us together and I never knew I would be able to say that I am close friends with the Pres. This guy is one of the most humble human beings. A God fearing man whom puts others way above his own needs and would give you the shirt off his back without hesitation. The memories we have together are priceless and I look forward to sharing many more as we add to the group. Thanks for being more than a good friend and always being a positive presence in life. Also, the man can cook.
Jeremy Sapp
Groomsman
Jeremy and I spent almost every waking day together over the course of a significant part of my undergrad life, between baseball and the glorious Red House days. He was then and still is today a man I have often looked up to. A Godly man whom expects the best from you. The time we shared during those years were what I didn't realize until later in life some of the most significant in my growth track of whom the man I am today. Thank for you and thankful to have you with me on this special day.
Parker Edmonds
Groomsman
Parker and I spent an insurmountable amount of time together throughout our undergrad years, and even a bit towards the latter part of PT school. Between our time as teammates, friends and roommates, a close friendship blossomed that neither time nor distance between us could ever extinguish. One of the most genuine people you can imagine and I am grateful to be able to call him my friend.
Robert Loewe
Groomsman
Rob, or "Pops" as we all like to call him, has been a staple in my life since our time together at UMHB. Another one of my baseball pals that the game brought me a lifelong friend, Rob has always been a steady, patient presence in my life. Supportive has been an understatement and though the miles are far between us now, he has never hesitated to reach out and continue to check in on what good things are happening in life. The stories are endless and times shared are memories I will cherish forever. I am glad that I get to share this day with him.
Riley Davis
Groomsman
A quiet man with a big heart, Riley has shared my love for baseball since the beginning of our time together as teammates at UMHB. Anything sports related and you can usually find this dude participating or at least moderately interested in it. To the prior hockey and baseball games we've been to, to the many we will get to share in the future, I am blessed by this friend to get enjoy these kid games that we so often take for granted. A great friend, and an even better Christian role model in my life, I am forever blessed that God let our paths cross and become friends.
Aaron Barteau
Groomsman
Barteau has been a solid friend and our friendship has continued to grow in our latter years. Baseball brought us together, and although his cutter never developed, I am thankful our friendship did. There have been countless laughs with this guy, some at him, some at me, some together. Nonetheless, there are never dull moments when A-A-R-O-N is around. Though I worry about his stability on his own two feet, I never have to question the stability he has in my life. I appreciate this man more than he knows and look forward to sharing this day with him.
David Tyler Dillon
Groomsman
This dude crossed my path in PT school. We never knew what to call you, so DTD stuck and so did our friendship. Never a dull moment but always has been one of the most honest and true friends that one could ever ask for. Too many laughs and blessings to count since you've been a part of my life. You have played a significant role in my relationship growth with Lauren, and we are both so ever grateful for you. I am so thankful to have you standing up there with me on this special day.
