Wedding Party
Gracie Buring
Matron of Honor
Gracie I met technically in 5th grade at the glee movie, but officially met in 6th grade as dance majors. We did not become close until 8th grade and best friends our freshmen year. From long days of rehearsals to long phone calls when we could not see each other, our friendship has grown and seen so much through the years and there is nobody else that could fill the role of my Matron of Honor like Gracie will.
Brandon Foster
Best Man
Brandon and I met in elementary school, where we used to get into a good bit of trouble together, not much has changed there. From hanging out on the playground, to taking the boat out together, Brandon is always there for any adventure we find ourselves in.
Victoria Standard
Bridesmaid
Victoria and I met the summer going into freshman year of college to be potential roommates and although we ended up not being roommates, she still quickly become one of my best friends at Lander University. Although Victoria and I left Lander University and moved home, I am so glad we stayed close because I could not imagine my life without her.
Stuart James
Best Man
Stuart and I met each other through Boy Scouts and there is not enough space to talk about all of the fun and "interesting" times we shared together because of Boy Scouts. Through all of the awkward phases, camping trips and now sharing our stories of Law Enforcement, Stuart and I have grown up together and I am thankful for him being here for me through this next chapter.
Olivia Brazelton
Bridesmaid
Olivia and I were roommates our freshman year of college at Lander University. Even though we became close from college, we are both from Charleston and knew a lot of the same people however never met. From countless nights of staying up late and experiencing so many firsts of college together, Olivia is always down to do whatever I ask her to do and I am so thankful to have a friend like her.
Hunter Horn
Groomsman
I met Hunter through a theatre program we both participated in through our early middle school years. We also transferred to School of the Arts together when we started our 8th grade year of middle school and it was such relief having someone I knew so well coming in as "the new kid" too. Although our friendship looks a little different now as we are not staying up till 4am hyped up on Mountain Dew playing video games, his loyalty to our friendship has not changed and I am thankful for that.
Jordan Edwards
Bridesmaid
Jordan and I met as 6th graders in middle as dance majors at School of the Arts. Although we were not very close in the beginning, junior of high school we became closer and thankfully so because Jordan is easily one of the most loyal people I have ever met. Jordan is also close with Andrew which makes us so excited to have her part of our big day!
Jackson Morton
Groomsman
School of the Arts obviously brought Courtney and I many great people, and Jackson is definitely one of them. Jackson and I were both theatre majors during our time at SOA and spent everyday together at school, allowing us to become so close and realize how similar we are. Jackson and I have created so many memories together and I know that this new adventure will allow us to create even more.
Casey Bendt
Bridesmaid
Casey and I actually met at the gym when she came up and complimented my shorts! Now that we have become best friends we constantly find ourselves talking more than working out in the gym. Casey is one of the sweetest people you will ever meet and manages to make everyone feel so comfortable and right at home when she talks to them. I am so excited to have her by my side on this special day because I know she will continue to be my side through all of life’s adventures!
Alex Macchia
Groomsman
Alex is my younger brother who I unfortunately do not remember the day I got to meet him which thankfully means I do not know how it feels to live without him. From running around the house in diapers and driving our poor mom crazy, to thinking we ruled the neighborhood, I am so thankful to have been able to grow up with Alex by my side. Although this season of life is so different from our times together in our childhood, I would not have it any other way than to have him standing by me as he has so many times before.
Hunter Morrow
Ring Bearer
Hunter is is our sweet, full of life, ball of energy nephew. Andrew and I have so much love for this sweet boy and could not imagine our special day without him carrying our rings down the aisle.
