Christian

Justin
Groomsman

Flower Girl
Isla is Hannah and Matt's first niece! She is super strong and has lots to say. Hannah and Matt are grateful Eric and Isabelle had a baby so they would have a flower girl for their wedding!
Matt
Groomsman
The Matts have known each other since they were young. Matt's house was the place to be for group videogame sessions and weekend sleepovers, which seemed like a weekly event.

Bridesmaid
Hannah met Courtney at her first veterinary clinic job in 2017 and Courtney has been Hannah's work wife ever since. They share a passion for animals, anxiety, and animals with anxiety. Courtney is an amazing artist and will be a huge help during creative decisions.
James
Groomsman
Matt met James through hanging out with the other Matt. James always brought an excitable energy to every sleepover, which resulted in countless stories that are still told today. James lives all the way in California, but still stays in contact with his frequent trips back to Michigan and gaming sessions.
Hallie
Bridesmaid
Hallie and Hannah were trauma bonded while on the same travel softball team in middle school. Hallie has been a support system for Hannah through many difficult times which means she is prepped and ready for bridesmaid duties. Hallie is an amazing backup if things with Matt fall through.
Eric
Groomsman
Matt has known Eric since he has known Hannah. Matt would often see Hannah's bother, Eric, when he was over at her house as a kid. Eric would often join Hannah and Matt when they would play games in the backyard. Since reconnecting, Matt has noticed Eric has not changed much since childhood.
Kailey
Bridesmaid
Kailey and Hannah became best friends in elementary school and have remained friends ever since.

No matter where life takes them, Kailey and Hannah will always be lifelong friends.
Adam
Groomsman

John
Officiant
