Wedding Party
Katelynn Husted
Maid of Honor
Katelynn Ryan Husted aka my Yin to my Yang, my partner in crime, my sister from another mister, my secret lover, and my best friend of all time. I've known Kate since the 4th grade, and we've been inseparable ever since. There was no questioning who I was going to make my maid of honor (IT WAS ALWAYS YOU!!). I know that I can count on Kate for ANYTHING - She really is the jack of all trades!!! Kate and I have a friendship like no other, and I could not imagine celebrating this day without her by my side! You'll probably see her running around the wedding fixing anything that's broken, dancing her booty off with a beer in her hand, or trying to sell you some Sherwin William's paint (just kidding.. maybe).
Andrew Dillinger
Best Man
In the second grade, I entered Mrs. Sadler's class, and my assigned seat was right next to some kid with a Washington D.C. shirt on that I had never seen before. I said, "hey, that place is super cool, are you from there?" Andrew Dillinger replied, "yeah!" A couple of years later, I discover that he thought Tennessee was the entire world. That is when I realized, this was my best friend. Ever since second grade, Dillinger and I have shared the best inside jokes that are impossible to explain with words...literally, and he has been the best friend a guy could have. From 18 mile hikes and working out, to all-nighters playing video games, this is someone I have basically spent my entire life with.
Kailee Flowers
Bridesmaid
Kailee is Jordan's little sister and has basically been my little sister for the past 8 years. When I first started dating Jordan, Kailee was about 12 or 13 (and now she's 20!!) so I've witnessed some of the best/worst/funniest moments of her life and let me tell you, she's sassy but she's resilient. I never imagined having a little sister, but I guess Kailee is alright ;) We share a common bond of not liking breakfast foods, picking on her dad and my future FIL for being a big baby, and ordering the most expensive things on the menu. Although Kailee doesn't always appreciate mine and Jordan's humor (HAHAHAHAH), she knows we will always have her back. If you see a basic white girl trying to dance at the wedding then you have discovered the one and only Kailee!!!
Brandon Taylor
Groomsman
I have known Brandon since the 7th grade, when some nerd walked into the band room with a trombone and glasses on and sat close by. This is one of the rare individuals that fully understands my humor, and he is also someone that I feel I can share anything with. I must say that band would have been impossible without Brandon in my life as he is someone who has always motivated me to be the best that I can be. Brandon is one of the smartest people I know, and he is an extremely hard worker with an insane drive and dedication. I mean, he put up with Hardee's for 35+ hours a week in high school and college, and he already has his CPA license at his young age...insane. He is someone that will always have my back, and I know I can trust the most because of our friendship.
Abby Ferrell
Bridesmaid
I've known Abby since high school and apparently I bullied her on an FBLA trip (WHICH IS A TOTAL LIE), but we didn't become good friends until college. I became close to Abby when we first started working study hall for MTSU's baseball team, and I quickly realized that I had met someone as weird or even weirder than me (also another thing we disagree on). Abby Dean will always be my forever friend simply because of the statement above and because she knows too many secrets. I know that I can fully be my sarcastic, weird (obsessive.. HAHHA) self around Abby because she's just as strange. Abby has a big and caring heart, but try to hug her and she'll run away. Catch her at the wedding probably acting like a princess with a nice glass of wine.
Jon Jon Shields
Groomsman
It has been a wild ride with this man. I have known Jon Jon for only about two years, and he is already a best friend. I arrived to class at a new school pursuing my graduate degree (pretty scary), and I had the impression that I would be making no friends in grad school due to my lack of interest in new friends to be quite honest. This random guy did not care that he had never seen me before, pursued me anyway, and somehow we became friends almost instantaneously. Jon Jon is someone everyone should meet, because I don't think there is anything you can't like about this guy. He has drive, determination, incredible intelligence, organization, crazy study skills, and he is an amazing friend. I don't think I could've asked for someone better to get through grad school with.
Hailey Franklin
Bridesmaid
I've known Hailey the shortest amount of time, but it truly feels like we've been friends for decades!! Hailey has been Kailee's best friend since literally forever so I was basically forced into having not only one little sister but two. Hailey is probably one of the funniest people I know, and you never know what she is going to say next. Hailey isn't afraid to be herself and is a complete open book - WHICH IS WHY I LOVE HER! If you see Kailee at the wedding white girl dancing Hailey won't be too far behind her!!
Matthew Powers
Groomsman
In the 8th grade, random groups made Venn Diagrams about our lives in math class, and it just so happened that Matthew was in my group. That Venn Diagram revealed that Matthew and I shared a strong common interest, and that was Xbox Live. From that moment on, Matthew knew me as FLOWERS9121, and I knew him as WarsawMonkey. Hours of Halo later, I realized he was one of my best friends. I don't think I have laughed as hard as I have when I am around Matthew because of his insanely hilarious stories. All throughout high school, there wasn't a day that went by that we didn't make a hilarious video for a school project (our quadratic formula video), talk about girls, play video games, work out, or go to the top of a waterfall and take a picture at 4:30AM.
