Wedding Party
Shane Crossland
Best Man
When Tyler was around 5, I was babysitting him and my parents got us Dions before they headed out. He used to, and still does, love Dions ranch. He would take his own packet and dip his pizza straight in it, preventing anyone else from using it. Me, being the older brother, did not approve of his act and told him he had to drink the remaining ranch as to not waste it. He was upset and crying while drinking it, but in the end he drank the whole thing. I hope Tyler carries this level of dedication and resiliency into his marriage.

I am very lucky to say that I have been able to watch Mariah and Tyler's incredible love story all the way from the beginning. It's hard to not be protective of your best friend and think no man will ever be good enough for her, but Tyler's transition from a friend to a life partner with Mariah made all those fears go away. I am so honored to be able to witness this next chapter in your lives and truly cannot wait to see what comes next. I love you both so much!

Tyler and I met working at Jiffy Lube. Working together every day turned into hanging out every weekend. Mariah has since taken him away from us, but I know there will be many more memories to come!

We were born 2 months and 3 days apart and did everything together, so we're basically sisters.

I remember coming home on leave from the Army when Ty was about 12 and taking him to the Rio Grande on his first fishing trip. That day he caught and released his first fish and watching the pure excitement he had was heart whelming. Now I get to have that same heart whelming feeling again watching him land his catch of a lifetime by joining union with Mariah who is definitely a keeper. Congrats little bro!

From sleepovers to Neon Foam parties it was always the best getting to grow up with you.

When Tyler and I were kids, we would hide under the blankets with Puperroni dog snacks and let his dogs attack us.

Bridesmaid
You have always been there for me. I love hanging out with you, I love playing board games with you, and I especially love putting makeup on you. I may not be the best at it, but it’s the time that I get to spend with you that matters. I feel so lucky to see you start a new chapter of life with many more memories to come. I love you.

Tyler and I met working at Jiffy Lube back in the day. I remember him being a shy, quiet kid who didn't know his social security number. Next thing you know we were always going on adventures to the middle of the desert or to the crest in the middle of the night to go exploring.
Clarissa Fernandez
Bridesmaid
We will forever be cousins. I have grown up right along with you from our days making mud pies, to our summer adventures in "Hobo Land" and learning how to ride a four-wheeler, to graduating college and now through adulthood. I'm wishing you lots of love and happiness!

You were there when I was born and you have always been there for me. I enjoy our family get togethers and especially our talks. Thanks for being a great cousin.
