Wedding Party
Alli Barbour
Maid of Honor
I met Alli through our husbands graduating Marine Corps boot camp together, and from the moment we connected, I knew we’d become close. Alli is loyal, fiery, sweet, and honestly, one of the funniest girls you’ll ever meet. Whether she’s showing her sweet southern side or adding a little fire to the mix, Alli’s energy always makes things more fun. Her smile lights up any room, and she’s truly been like a sister to me since we became close. Alli is one of the most radiant, fun, and genuinely amazing people I’ve ever met, and I’m so lucky to have her standing by my side on this special day.
Morgan Hallas
Bridesmaid
Morgan and I have been good friends for over 8 years, ever since we met at Stillwater Middle School. She’s one of the sweetest people I know and always down for an adventure, whether it’s traveling to the Dominican Republic or spontaneously going to a Morgan Wallen concert. She was there with me when I tried on wedding dresses and especially when I finally found the one, making that moment even more special. Morgan is sweet, adventurous, and incredibly supportive. She always knows the right thing to say and is ready to lift me up when I need it most. She has a way of making every moment brighter, and I’m so grateful to have her standing with me on this special day.
Maddi Achman
Bridesmaid
Maddi and I have been friends since sixth grade and have been close ever since. She is hands down the funniest person I know and there is never a dull moment when she’s around. We have probably logged a million hours together at the mall (and still somehow claim we have nothing to wear). From early on, I just knew she would be a lifelong friend. Maddi has been such a loyal, steady presence through so many phases of life, and I’m beyond grateful for all the laughter, support, and memories we’ve shared. When it came to choosing my bridesmaids, she was a no-brainer. She’s the life of the party, always knows how to make people laugh, and I know she’ll bring so much joy, energy, and fun to the wedding day.
Camille Wilk
Bridesmaid
Camille is my younger sister, though most people think she’s the older one! We have grown so much closer in recent years, and now we’re always laughing together (usually about things only the two of us would find funny). She knows me better than anyone and secretly she’s really funny—she just doesn’t always show it right away. She’s sweet, eager to learn, and has such a genuine heart. We love our gym sessions, even if we spend more time chatting than actually working out. Being sisters means we can argue one minute and be planning dinner the next—it’s a bond I wouldn’t trade for anything. I’m so grateful to have her by my side on this special day.
Avery Wilk
Bridesmaid
Avery is my youngest sister, and she’s basically my mini me—except with a heart ten times bigger. She’s always the first to tag along for shopping trips, dinner dates, or endless soccer debates (she’s pretty good, but I still claim I was the better player). What I love most about her is how giving she is—whether it's her time, her support, or just her energy, she’s always there. From spontaneous adventures to those simple, everyday moments, she’s been by my side. So lucky to have her as my sister, and even luckier to have her as my bridesmaid on my wedding day!
Faith Leyden
Bridesmaid
Faith and I met online through our husbands being in the Marine Corps, and we quickly hit it off and became close. The first time we met in person, I took a chance and flew to California to see her… and honestly, we had no idea how things would go (but it turned out awesome, of course). Faith is one of those people who is always there for you, whether we are having an impromptu beach trip or getting way too much Handel’s ice cream. She is incredibly giving and would do anything for anyone, always putting others first without hesitation. Faith is one of the most genuinely kind-hearted people you’ll ever meet, and to know her is to love her. She came all the way to Minnesota just to stand by me on my big day, and I’m so grateful to have her here.
ZACH BIERWERTH
Best Man
Zach is my older cousin, and I've been fortunate to have grown up with him. He's known me at every stage of my life and has been a constant friend and someone I can look to. I don't have any siblings, but I've always thought of him as an older brother. Although I'm not back in Minnesota much anymore, whenever I'm around him it feels like I never left. He is dependable and smart with a work ethic like no other and I feel truly lucky to call him family.
TYLER MAGOZZI
Groomsman
Tyler and I met around seven years ago through hockey. We were goalie partners for a season, which quickly made me realize I wasn't as athletic as I thought. Although we went our separate ways for high school we never stopped being friends. He and I have so many of the same interests, which make our bi-annual meetings something I always look forward to. Tyler is an incredibly smart and driven individual that elevates everyone around him, and I feel very fortunate to call him a friend.
JACKSON MILLER
Groomsman
Jackson and I grew up playing hockey together and became one of my closest friends. Since I've known him, he's brought a level of enthusiasm and energy that makes people want to be around him. He was one of my best friends in high school and someone I could absolutely not sit next to in any class we shared. He has been a great and reliable friend throughout the years, and is someone that I always look forward to seeing.
TYSON SONNEK
Groomsman
Tyson and I met around four years ago and he helped me get my start in the Marine Corps. We ended up on the same team for our second deployment, and our personalities came together perfectly to create a very effective team that I was proud to be a part of. He made some of the most miserable times into some of the best. He is dedicated to the people he cares about and always shows up when he's needed, and has been a great friend to me over the years.
KAMDEN LOGAN
Groomsman in Absentia
Kam and I met each other around three years ago when we first showed up in Twentynine Palms. There are few quicker ways to become friends than growing up in the Marine Corps together. From long weeks out in the desert to our first deployment, the time I've spent with him makes up some of my best memories. He is one of the most selfless men I know and is the type of person that people strive to emulate. Kam will not be able to attend due to a deployment. He is my best friend and I am proud to know him.
Haisley Brookman
Flower Girl
Our flower girl is Lauren's cousin Haisley, and she’s the perfect mix of sweet and a little sassy! She’s adorable, full of personality, and we know she’ll add an extra dose of joy and cuteness to the big day.
