Our Wedding Party
Paige Sutton
Maid of Honor
Paige was my first friend when I first moved to Broken Arrow. Paige has always been such a light in my life and I feel so immensely lucky to be going on almost 20 years of friendship, which is fitting because our Dad's have been friends for over 50 years. I am truly so honored to have Paige stand with me as I marry Joe. Fun fact about Paige: she just graduated nursing school and started working full-time as a nurse at St John!
Lynnlee Okda
Matron of Honor
From high school to countless hours studying together in college to being in each other's weddings, Lynn and I have been through so many of life's big changes together. I am so thankful for her supportive & steadfast friendship all these years. It was an honor to stand by her side at her wedding and I can't wait for her to stand by me at mine. Fun fact about Lynnlee: Dr. Lynnlee I mean, cause she is a pharmacist working in oncology at St John!
Max Thomas
Bridesbro
Max is my (not so little anymore) brother. As one of the best, most caring, hilarious, and supportive people in my life, I couldn't imagine Max not standing by my side as I get married so I asked him to be my "bridesbro". Fun fact about Max: he has been traveling all over the country to watch motocross!
Elisabeth Brillhart
Officiant & Bridesmaid
Liz is my (soon to be) sister-in-law, friend, and favorite karaoke partner. Joe and I have known for a long time that we wanted Liz to marry us and are so honored for Liz to not only be one of my bridesmaids but officiating our marriage as well. Fun fact about Liz: she is an extremely talented singer and performer!
Kaden Killam
Bridesmaid
Kaden is not only my "sister-in-lease" but also one of my best friends. No one makes me laugh like Kaden and I couldn't ask for a more creative, kind, and just truly wonderful person to stand by my side on my big day. Fun fact about Kaden: she is a super talented artist! Alternative fun fact: we collectively spent over 2000 hours playing Animal Crossing during the pandemic!
Kassie Spoon
Bridesmaid
Kassie is one of the most thoughtful people I know and I am lucky to call her a friend. She is always down to try new things and have a good time. Joe and I had the honor of both being a part of Kassie and Dylan's elopement and we are so excited to have them stand by our sides at our wedding. Fun fact about Kassie: she is a fantastic chef and baker and has started her own small business: Kassie's Fresh Treats!
Robert Brillhart
Best Man
I have known Bobby my whole life. I grew up sitting behind him and watching him play video games. Now as we have gotten older, we have fun playing online games together with the family. Bobby is a skilled guitar player and has made several custom guitars each with their own unique theme. We also work together at the same Cybersecurity Consulting firm, which I have to say is pretty special. He has always had my back and I am proud to call him brother.
Geoffrey Brillhart
Best Man
I have known Geoff my whole life. As Geoff will tell you, I grew up breaking all of his models he painstakingly put together, and escaped punishment as I was just the "baby brother". Geoff is probably the most knowledgeable person I know when it comes to anything mechanical. He also greatly enjoys hobbies that have an overwhelming association with serious injury(i.e. rugby, racing dirt bikes). He is someone you always want in your corner and I am proud to call him brother.
Dylan Spoon
Groomsman
Mr. Dylan Spoon, although anyone who knows him calls him Spoon. I have known Spoon for what seems like an eternity. We used to run around the neighborhood together as young lads making sure to manage plenty of mischief. Spoon enjoys lifting way too much weight than what is good for your spine(powerlifting) as well as racing his dirt bike. Spoon is one of the most solid and dependable people you could ever be friends with and that is why I am grateful to have him there on my wedding day.
Adam Taylor
Groomsman
I have known Adam for a very long time, since we were kids. As we grew up we hung out more and more into the friends group we have today. Adam is an excellent woodworker/craftsman and spends a great deal of time renovating something new in his house or creating something new entirely. He also races dirt bikes with my brother and Spoon. Adam is one of the most thoughtful people you could know and am grateful to have him with me on my wedding day.
Nicholas Leone
Groomsman
Nick is the friend that I have known the longest, as we had preschool classes together. We also were lucky to grow up in the same neighborhood, where Nick's house was often the house to be at. Funnily enough, sometimes Nick would come home from being out with his family and they would find our friends group just hanging out on the porch. Nick is an avid movie buff. I don't think there is a movie he hasn't seen and he somehow remembers the plot to them all. He also is someone you can always count on to be down to do anything and he is someone you know always has your back. It's been a long time coming, but I am glad he will be there by my side on my wedding day.
John "J.T." Taylor
Groomsman
John Taylor, an excellent action hero name. I first truly met J.T. in 2016 on video games as he was playing with Adam and my other friends on there. We have spent incalculable hours playing video games together and gone to gaming conventions together. J.T. likes 3D printing impressive replicas of various pop culture/video game items and then spray brushing them in his shop to make them come to life. He also rides dirt bikes with Geoff, Adam, and Spoon. J.T. is one of the nicest people I know and always makes everyone feel seen and welcome. I truly cherish him as a friend and I am glad he will be by my side at my wedding.
