Lauren & Tyler
Wedding Party
Lauren McEachern House
Matron of Honor
Lauren has been nothing but the essence of a best friend for the entirety of our friendship. We first met in the 6th grade at Savannah Country Day School. Tyler, however, has known Lauren since they were 3 years old and they attended high school together at Savanah Christian. Lauren was always so sweet and shy, but I quickly learned that the shy girl had quite a spark and was simply so fun to be around. She has a heart of gold and I am so grateful to have her in my life.Tyler and I had the honor of introducing Lauren to her now husband, Patrick House, whom is one of Tyler’s best friends from Ole Miss. We had the honor of being a part of their wedding in December of 2018 and are thrilled that they will both be a part of ours. Making memories with Lauren is one of my favorite things!
Jenna Miles Coleman
Matron of Honor
Jenna was one of the first girls I met when I was headed into the 6th grade at Savannah Country Day. Her sweet smile and Southern Jesup accent made me feel right at home. We have created so many wonderful memories that I continue to cherish and after the loss of her amazing mother this year, it has been a true blessing to watch her become a mother to adorable Palmer Avery Coleman. Her mother, I know, is so proud of her and so am I. Jenna has such a positive spirit and uplifting attitude that I have always admired. She is quick witted and when we spend time together we laugh until our stomachs hurt. I was honored to be Jenna’s Maid of Honor when she married her sweet husband, Blake and I am so grateful to have her by my side come March!
McKenzie Doss
Bridesmaid
McKenzie came into my life during my freshman year of college and we have been inseparable ever since. Mckenzie is sunshine! She has a knack of making everyone she meets feel like a superstar. One of the many things I love and adore about her is that unlike many people, she shows genuine interest in others and she listens when they talk. Mckenzie lives now in Louisville, KY, just a quick hour drive away from her amazing family in her hometown of Lexington! She is quite possibly one of the funniest people I have ever met and she just makes me feel at peace and at home. I always tease that I am an honorary member of the Doss family, and I consider myself extremely lucky to have had them come into my life. She is simply my kind of person and the most loyal friend!
Lauren Medinger (Cone)
Bridesmaid
Lauren has also been in my life since the 6th grade and we went all the way through college together at The University of Georgia in Athens, GA. Lauren was a UGA cheerleader and we had the opportunity to share our last semester in Athens living togther & I will always cherish those times. Lauren has always been so dedicated and what I love the most about her is that she doesn’t let other people influence her decisions. She has always worked hard and followed her dreams! Lauren is an amazing accountant and is currently living in New York City with her fiancé, Adrian Cone. They are getting married March 7th of 2020 and with all of her planning going on, the sweet, dedicated, and loyal friend that she is is still going to be standing by my side later in the month!
Lloyd Pember Childs
Bridesmaid
Lloyd and I have been friends since our freshman year in high school from that moment on she has always been there for me whenever I needed a friendly face and a good laugh. Living on the same floor together as college Freshman at Georgia was such a blessing & allowed us to blend our groups of newly found friends, whom we have continued to create so many fond memories with since then. The summer following our Junior year at UGA, we got to take the trip of a lifetime to study abroad in Cape Town, South Africa. We jumped out of planes, cage dove with sharks, bungee jumped off of one of the largest jump sites in the world, saw stunning animals on a Safari and laughed until we cried. I had the pleasure of being a part of Lloyd's wedding and feel honored that she will stand by my side!
Morgan Boaen Smith
Bridesmaid
Morgan & I have been friends since we were in our prime wearing braces in the 6th grade. Morgan has such a contagious smile & personality & is the life of the party! Whether is be in sports, academics, or otherwise, Morgan has always had such determination. She always rises up to a challenge and taking her journey through dental school has been no different. She works hard and plays harder and is always there when you need a friend. Dental school wasn't just about the studying however, as Morgan met her now husband, Pate, there as well. Thankfully, the two have moved back to Savannah to start practicing. Dr. Morgan Boaen Smith has specialized in pediatrics & could not be a better fit for the kiddos, as her and I do nothing but laugh and act like kids when we are together ourselves.
Betsy Tate Barrow
Bridesmaid
Betsy, otherwise known as Tater, has been by my side for many years, but we became particularly close when I moved back to Savannah after Nursing School & started dating Tyler. Tater has such a genuine & kind spirit & she has a knack for making you feel so special & loved. Whether it be a sweet & thoughtful gift, her undying effort to be present at special occasions, or a simple phone call, Betsy is true gold when it comes to friends. Tater will go along with you for anything you want to do & will keep a smile on her face the whole time. She brings such a positive attitude everywhere she goes & I am looking forward to making many more fond memories with her for years to come. Betsy & her husband Thomas were born & raised in Savannah & still reside here, so I am lucky to see them often!
Kennedy Phillips
Bridesmaid
Kennedy is my sweet younger cousin who has such an adventurous spirit. She is a friend to anyone she meets & has a solid heart of gold. Kennedy went to school at Colorado State University and graduated with honors, as we all knew she would! She has always been an excellent student, marched to her own drum & had a good head on her shoulders & I am so proud of everything she has accomplished! Our family is very close & we had the best time traveling to Ireland & London last year creating memories I will never forget. I look so forward to watching her continue to chase her dreams. She is absolutely beautiful inside and out & I look so forward to watching her continue to chase her dreams. I love her firecracker personality & we talk all things girl & fashion whenever we are together!
Chase Mouchet
Best Man
Chase is my Big Brother and Best Man. We grew up extremely close as we are only two years apart and we have created some of the best memories over the years together. Chase lives in Atlanta with his wife Kate and two small children. They have a son named Knox and a daughter named Audrey. Chase is a financial planner for Brightworth. Lauren and I look forward to the years ahead and continuing to create more memories. You can be sure to find Chase cutting a rug on the dance floor come March!
Patrick House
Groomsman
I met Patrick my freshman year at Ole Miss. We were fraternity brothers and roommates for three years. Patrick is from Raleigh, North Carolina and after I moved back to Savannah after college, Patrick would make the trip down often to visit me. At least I thought he was coming to visit me, but Lauren and I quickly learned his interest was in Lauren and my childhood friend, Lauren McEachern. After a few really “subtle” hints on Patrick’s part, Lauren and I set them up on a date and the rest is history. Patrick married Lauren McEachern in December of 2018 and we love having the two of them in Savannah. Patrick can probably be found at our wedding trying to steal the mic from the lead singer, or at the local Savannah karaoke bar, McDonough’s, singing, “Man, I feel like a Woman.”
Keaton Brewer
Groomsman
I also met Keaton my freshman year at Ole Miss and just like my other friends from college, we were in the same fraternity and lived together. Keaton lives in Chapel Hill with his wife Kate and we are so excited that they will be bringing a baby boy into the world in February! Lauren and I have had the pleasure of taking many trips with The Brewer clan, with one of our favorites being our trip to London in fall of 2018 to watch The Eagles play at Wembley Stadium. Keaton’s dad, Gunter, was coaching with the Eagles at the time and it was an unforgettable experience. Keaton will be the tallest guy at the wedding with the shortest pants.
Patrick Garhan
Groomsman
Patrick is another Ole Miss buddy of mine since Freshman Year. Patrick and his wife, Whitney live in Austin, Texas, but they both grew up together in Atlanta. Lauren and I got to share our first New Year’s Eve together with Patrick, Whitney, and other of my Ole Miss friends in Atlanta and we look forward to celebrating one in Austin sometime in the near future! The best way to spot Patrick at the wedding is to look for the guy with the split in the back of his pants. That has become a bit of a wedding tradition for him.
Matt Wuerdeman
Groomsman
Last, but not least, of my Ole Miss buddies in the wedding party is Matt. Matt deserves a Congratulations as well, because he just got engaged to his fiancé Michelle in Oxford and we are so excited for the two of them. Matt lives in Nashville, where he works as a physical therapist. Some of our fondest memories include going to The Grove in Oxford to tailgate. Matt’s parents always had a fun spread and hosted us for so many games over the years. Just look for the guy with the good hair trying to upstage the groom.
Emory Nesbit
Groomsman
Emory is one of my greatest friends from childhood. We went to the same school and played baseball together for years. Emory went on to become an accountant and has protected me against the IRS for the last few years. Emory and his wife Anna Wells live in Savannah with their two daughters, Lynnon and Mills. We were so excited to hear that they will also be bringing a baby boy into the world this next year. You can spot Emory at the wedding wearing Crocs and drinking a cold Coors Light.
Bo Ballance
Groomsman
Bo and I are also childhood friends that attended school together most of our life. I grew up playing sports with Bo (side note: I hit a home run off of Bo in 14 and under baseball). Bo and his wife, Gabby, live in Savannah with their two daughters, Bonnie and Hazel. We always have the best time gathering in their house watching football games in the fall. You might find Bo at the wedding wearing the traditional black tux or his favorite confederate soldier attire from recreating scenes at Wormsloe.
Clay Harrelson
Groomsman
Clay is the last of my childhood friends in the wedding party, but probably the loudest. Clay and I graduated high school together, played many years of baseball, and still continue to quote our favorite movies whenever we see each other. Clay is currently living in Denver, but that might change tomorrow, as he is always on the move. He has traveled to many amazing places, but since Lauren’s family lives in Denver, we will get the opportunity to see Clay whenever we are visiting. Please do not give Clay food or drink at the wedding, as he is allergic to almost everything.
