Ashleigh & Joseph
Wedding Party
Taylor Love
Maid of Honor
Taylor is my absolute best friend in the world. We first met playing Upward Basketball together when we were just 5 and 6 years old. We continued to play with and against each other for years, but it all really started with the first sleepover when I was in seventh grade. I remember the first time I spent the night at Taylor's like it was yesterday, and after that, I pretty much never left (hints the name her family gave me: leech). Taylor and I were inseparable: countless sleepovers, family holidays, nights at race tracks, weekends at the lake, and even more Aaron Watson concerts. Taylor has lived in Lubbock for nine years now but has forever been my best friend. We've waited for this day for so long. Lywww, Tay!
Shane Hall
Best Man
Shane and I have have been best friends for over 21 years, going all the way back to Kindergarden at Sugar Mill Elementary. We grew up playing little league baseball together, and stayed close friends throughout Elementary, Middle and High School. While I attended Texas A&M, Shane was at Sam Houston State and we still managed to link up every now again for birthdays, holidays and tee times at the golf course. Following college, we were even roommates for a year as we began our professional careers. Over the years, we have spent countless days on the golf course, and countless nights around a pool table - the competitiveness between us will never get old. Thank you for the memories and I look forward to creating many more!
Whitney Bryant
Bridesmaid
Whitney is my big cousin but has really always been more like my sister. She's the one I always wanted to be just like! Growing up, she always played with my hair and makeup (I think it's safe to say that hasn't changed), let me borrow all of her clothes, and always treated me and included me like her little sister. She's the most generous person, best momma to our Little Toots, and the best hairstylist there ever was! I couldn't imagine a day without her, especially the biggest day of my life. Love you so much, Whit!
Brandon McKinney
Groomsman
Brandon and I were in the same class in 5th grade, and have been best friends ever since. We spent numerous days growing up fishing the local lakes around Sugar Land - and I can assure you, we mastered them all. Following High School, Brandon and I moved to San Marcos to attend college at Texas State University. We were dorm roommates on the 7th floor of Jackson Hall, a highrise dorm building in the heart of campus that looked almost prison-like from the inside with its painted cement block walls and laminate tile floors. We both joined the Pi Kappa Alpha Fraternity our freshman fall semester and made great friends and even better memories. Brandon is one of the kindest, thoughtful, and well-mannered gentleman I have ever met (his parents did a remarkable job). ΦΦ Brother.
Katlyn Jonas
Bridesmaid
Katlyn and I met in middle school (which she says she doesn't remember, haha!) and truly became besties in college at Texas A&M! We spent many nights at Chimy's, weekends adventuring, and summers traveling! We love a good margarita, going to the Golden Nugget, wine nights, spin class, and any and all adventures! Katlyn and I now share even more of a bond, both being labor and delivery nurses! Katlyn is encouraging, one of my biggest supporters, and always the life of the party. I'm so thankful to have a friend like her! We love you, Jo!
Cole Hooks
Groomsman
Cole and I were pledge brothers of the Pi Kappa Alpha Fraternity at Texas State Univerisity. Following the Spring of 2015, we both moved to College Station to attend Texas A&M University. During our time in College Station, we were roommates for three years, and those three years I wouldn't trade for anything. We spent our summers at the local apartment pools, and the winters around a backyard campfire. Cole did not come alone though; him and his three-legged black lab Maggie are an inseparable, package-deal. Cole is an incredible sand volleyball partner, friend, and now, new father. ΦΦ Brother.
Alexi Kaufert
Bridesmaid
Alexi and I met at Texas A&M in a women's organization called Aggie Sisters in Healthcare. We were both a part of the nursing committee and I instantly knew that she would be my "little". Although she's taught me probably more than I could ever teach her, it has been so fun to go through so many milestones together. We both graduated from Texas A&M, both went to nursing school and became RN's, and now I'm so lucky to have her by my side through all of our future milestones. Thank you for always encouraging me and being an ear to listen. We love you, Alexi!
Seth Beathard
Groomsman
Seth and I became friends through our girlfriends who were in the same Women's Organization at Texas A&M. Seth and I lived down the street from each other in the same neighborhood in College Station, and I feel like we clicked as friends instantly. We both enjoy the same hobbies, which include: watching sports, playing golf, and frequenting the Northgate Bar District in College Station. One thing I learned quickly is that Seth does not like to lose, and another thing I learned quickly is that I enjoyed beating Seth at whatever we were doing. If I had to pick a beer pong partner in a life-or-death situation, it would most definitely be you, buddy.
Caimbry Schneider
Bridesmaid
My very first best friend. Caimbry and I met in kindergarten at Lakeview Elementary and were pretty much inseparable all the way through. We were in brownies together, spent every spring break at Astroworld (RIP), and have always shared our love for animals. Caimbry is the type of friend that we can pick up right where we left off. I got to be a part of her wedding last July and I caught the bouquet so hey I guess it works?! I'm so thankful to have found a forever friend in Caimbry.
Cooper Little
Groomsman
Cooper Lawson Little. What an intelligent, honest and genuine gentleman. Cooper and I had met a few times through a mutual friend when I lived in San Marcos, and when I moved to College Station we became roommates. The funny part about the story is, I didn't actually get to meet Cooper until the Spring 2016 semester because he had living in Washington D.C. for an internship. Cooper is another dog-dad that comes as a package deal with this grey Dachshund, Twig. We are both avid hunters and have shared many great stories over the years. Cooper is a life-long friend I am glad to have.
Adrian Kallas
Bridesmaid
That random roommate turned best friend? That's Adrian! Adrian became our roommate when we were juniors and she was just a freshman! Adrian has literally seen me at my lowest lows and my highest highs and has loved me through it all. I can't imagine what college would have been like without this hilarious, sports-loving, drop everything for you friend, because I know it would have been BORING without her in my life. Now come back to Texas! Love you!
John Brown
Groomsman
I met John Brown after I had moved to College Station. His older brother, Austin, was a close fraternity brother of mine at Texas State and when I moved, Austin told me about his little brother who was moving to College Station as well. I gave John a call one afternoon and we've been good buds ever since. John is a jokester, or at least he thinks he's a jokester. John always means well though, and is incredibly thoughtful and dependable. We don't get to see eachother as much anymore, but when we do it still feels like old times.
Loran Perry
Bridesmaid
Loran and I met through Joe and her twin brother, Logan. Joe and Logan were roommates at Texas A&M and the rest is pretty much history. Loran has the most contagious smile and laugh, can light up any room with her "woo-hoo's" and crazy dance moves, and is the most caring and generous human! I can't imagine our day without Loran and the rest of the 124 Knox crew! #rahrah thanks & gigs!
Logan Perry
Groomsman
Logan was another roommate I had for two years at Texas A&M with Cole and Cooper. Cole and I were moving, and needed a fourth roommate but didn't know anyone. I posted on a roommate-finder through Texas A&M and eventually got to know Logan. Logan comes from a farming family in Snyder, Texas and brings his West-Texas generosity with him. Logan is one of the nicest guys on this Earth and I am thankful to be his friend.
Erica Leigh
Bridesmaid
Erica and I became fast friends because of our boys, Joe and Jerry! I've known Jerry for a long time and he and Joe have become great friends over the past couple of years. It didn't take long for Erica and I to bond over our love for White Claw and drinking games (sorry, Joe)! If you wonder where we are, just know we're probably over at Jerry and Erica's! So excited to go through this chapter of life together!
Jerry Leigh
Groomsman
Jerry and I became friends through a mutual friend. We both have the same interests and hobbies, and that has made us great friends over the last four or five years. Shortly after, Ashleigh became good friends with his wife, Erica, and the rest is history. We spend at least one night a week at eachother's houses cooking, eating and enjoying drinks and laughs. Jerry and I will do anything to try to win a dollar off of one another; whether it is rolling dice, playing pool, throwing darts or even flipping a coin. We normally play golf together about once a week, and look to continue our weekly tee-times for the rest of our lives. Jerry is another life-long friend I am proud to have.
Elizabeth Liska
House Party
Elizabeth is Joe's younger sister. It's crazy to think that I met her when she was just like, 11 years old. I have watched her grow into a beautiful young woman and a wonderful mother to her baby girl, Adilynn. We have shared lots of memories together and I can't wait to go through life with her as my sister. Joe and I love you very much and are so excited to have you be a part of our special day!
Matthew Estes
Usher
Matthew is Ashleigh's younger brother. He is smart, funny, and always down for a good time. He's got everyone's back and sees the good in everyone. I'm excited to gain a brother in Matthew and look forward to making lots of memories together.
Katelyn Love
House Party
Katelyn is the big sister I never knew I needed. Katelyn is my best friend’s big sister, but when I never left, she had no choice than to have two annoying little sisters. She has been there for me through it all, the good and the bad, and has stood in when Taylor couldn’t, or just when I needed a good hug. Couldn’t imagine my day without you, Katelyn! Lywww!
Ross Ramirez
Usher
Ross Stanley Michael Ramirez. Redass Ag, dog dad, avid tailgater, loves working on/fixing anything he can get his hands on, and best friend there could be. Ross and Ashleigh have been best friends since meeting on the school bus in 6th grade. Wouldn’t want to hate anyone like I love to hate you, Rossy!
Becca Rademacher
House Party
Becca quickly became part of the family when she started dating my cousin Jake years ago. He sure picked a good one; sweet, kind-hearted, and the perfect mommy to our Heidi Rose & Finley Marie. Joe and I can’t wait for you to be a part of our big day, Becca!
Ella McConnell
Flower Girl
Ella is our "Little Toots"! From the day she was born, she's been trying to steal Joe from me! Ha! We have loved getting to watch her grow into the funny, confident, beautiful girl she is. She's the Little Toots to my Toots and the one who always keeps us on our toes. She's been waiting for this day probably just as long as I have. We love you, Ella!
Heidi Langerud
Flower Girl
Sweet Heidi Rose, Tiny Toots! Heidi is the girly girl of the family and is going to love walking down the aisle, all dressed up, with her big cousin Ella! We have loved watching her grow into the funny, sweet little girl that she is.
Adilynn Liska
Flower Girl
Adilynn is our first sweet niece! We have loved seeing the joy she brings to everyone and the personality she has grown in such a short time. We are so excited to see our littlest flower girl walk down the aisle with us. We love you, sweet Adi!
