Madison & Trexler
Wedding Party
Savannah Meredith
Maid of Honor
Savannah is my younger sister and best friend. The story goes that when Savannah was born, I held her in my arms for the first time and said, “I just love her.” To this day, that still sums it up. Our relationship has been filled with plenty of laughter, tears, hugs, inside jokes, games, movies, and so much love. Savannah even stayed the night with me in my dorm room on my first night of college, in a tiny twin bed! She has an infectious laugh and can always crack us up with her silly jokes. Savannah has stood by me all throughout my life, it only seems fitting that she stand beside me on my wedding day.
Kyle Kingery
Best Man
Kyle and I found each other while attending church in the great Scooba, MS and became instant friends. He became my first best friend and though life has taken us to different parts of the country, anytime we are together it's like nothing has changed. Kyle led me to the Delta Chi fraternity while at Mississippi State where I met many new lifelong friends and created fantastic memories. In our youth, people would think we were brothers because we were inseparable and shared many mannerisms and interests. I'll never forget the all night videogames and sleepovers we had together. The Kingery's family has always been kind to me, I even lived with them after graduating high school.
Anne Marie Nease
Bridesmaid
Anne Marie and I grew up together more like sisters than cousins, we were born only a few weeks apart and were inseparable. Even living over an hour apart, we spent so many nights at the other's house that we might as well have lived next door. We had hundreds of adventures together from skiing, camping, hiking, and more! We still live far apart but know that no matter what, we're there for each other unconditionally. Anne Marie has a quiet strength and grace about her that inspires everyone around her, including me. Although she’s only three weeks older, I looked up to her a lot growing up and still do.
Daniel Bozone
Groomsman
With Kyle being my first best friend, Daniel easily became my second. We met at Mississippi State in the basement of the Mechanical Engineering building where I worked. The ME students had a study room right across from my office and Daniel was there nearly every day and spent more hours than one can count in my office. The stories and jokes rolled around and maybe even a few lies. There are a few things sworn to secrecy, never to be shared, but if you ever wonder if a Toyota Yaris can jump an intersection, the answer is yes if you give it enough speed. Daniel is one of the most generous guys you'll ever have the fortune to meet and you can't help but laugh when he gets to talking.
Erin Sproull
Bridesmaid
Erin and I grew up together, we were next door neighbors for seventeen years and her home was mine and my home was hers. She is the kindest and most determined person I know, always ready to lend a helping hand or try something new. We put on many movies, circuses, and shows, including one where we painted Erin's face with a... less than washable marker (a lot of scrubbing helped!). Whether watching movies, playing video games, or criticizing the latest Star Wars show, whenever we're together we always have fun. We’re Han Solo and Chewbacca, just better looking. ;) Erin is my Goldeneye partner, my copilot, my inspiration, and one of my best friends.
Brandon Peters
Groomsman
Brandon came to Mississippi State after serving in the Navy and wanted to check in with the fraternity he was a part of previously at LSU. I was President and essentially became the point of contact. The legendary stories he retold to me about the LSU chapter would have us swinging from laughter to horror. Brandon's Starkville house became the go to place for me to hangout after Daniel left. We binged shows and spent many evenings listening to music on the front porch. Our last year on campus, I didn't buy any books and instead bought a membership at the golf course down the road. We played every afternoon until we couldn't see, and though I like to believe we got better over time, he is quick to remind me of how truly horrible we actually were. Now, we are together again in Mobile and he's teaching me and Madison to scuba dive.
Shannon Sproull
Bridesmaid
Shannon and I grew up together, she's been one of my closest friends for over twenty years. We spent practically every day together dreaming up new adventures and creating new games. Once we created an entire presentation to convince our parents to let us camp out in the backyard, we were successful and spent all night eating snacks and playing games. Even after moving across the country, we’ve still kept in touch and every time we’re together again we pick up as though we were never apart. A dreamer with a big brain and an even bigger heart, Shannon reminds me to reach for the stars.
Trent Frederick
Groomsman
Trent, another fraternity member, is a guy you need in your corner. Ever optimistic and full of encouragement, he has come through for me more times than I can count. We knew each other while at State but we didn't truly become buddies until afterwards. Whenever we get together, it's like a hurricane of winning from start to finish and insert your favorite Ricky Bobby quote anywhere you please. I always enjoy playing golf with Trent because as a fellow left-handed hitter, we tend to miss on the same side, I mean we tend to drive it 320 down the middle of the fairway and we can't be bothered waiting for the others to catch up. Trent, the master of the second wind, is as true a friend as any.
