Wedding Party

Amy Matsumoto

Officiant

Amy is Alex’s best friend of more than 20 years and was like another daughter to Alex’s late mom. They have a shared love of music, books, and copious snacks. Matt is not so secretly terrified of Amy because he knows she will be Alex’s call if she ever needs to hide a body.

Ashley Carnes

Maid of Honor

Ashley is Alex’s little sister and permanent partner in crime. When asked what her favorite memory with Alex was, Ashley said, “There is no way that I can pick just one memory. From you braiding my hair while we talked, jamming out in the car, family vacations and concerts, to just having you as my sister growing up — there are way too many. ❤️”

Mark Lowe

Best Man

Mark is Matt’s brother and his tag team partner in wrestling matches with Miles (nephew). They enjoy bonding over comics, video games, and building.

Megan Carnes

Bridesmaid

Megan married Alex’s brother but was a sister to her long before they tied the knot. When asked about her favorite memory together, Meg said, “There have been so many memories over the past like 13 years😂 but one of my favorite memories with Alex is when we went to see Matt Nathanson and The Fray together in Charlotte ♥️ “

Dylan Carnes

Groomsman

Dylan is Alex’s little brother and Matt’s family gathering comedy show co-host. Matt and Dylan enjoy bonding over Star Wars, LEGOs, and all things nerdy.

Dana Lowe

Bridesmaid

Dana is Matt’s sister-in-law and has been Alex’s bonus sister since they met. For her favorite memory Dana said, “Best memory is certainly when we went wine tasting with Susan (mother-in-law) and realized we could not hang. Another more serious memory is when Chris (what his family calls Matt) and Alex opened their home to us after Hurricane Helene. Their kindness during a hard time for our family was not forgotten and embodied what family is all about.”

Miles Lowe

Groomsman

Miles is Matt’s nephew and his favorite family member. You can usually find them wrestling, playing games, and being complete goofs.
