Jillian & Christopher
Wedding Party
Samantha Richardson
Maid of Honor
We're twins. I just so happen to have been born 15 months earlier. I tied her shoes, paid her lunch tab and chased away bad dreams all growing up. In return, she remains to be the light of my life. There's no better little sister.
Jonathon McKay
Best Man
As his brother, there’s almost too many stories to choose from. As his best man, I’ll save the best ones for the wedding. I’m excited to celebrate this union because Christopher is one of the most caring and authentic people I know. The combination of that and the awesomeness of Jillian is a future to be excited about, both for them and the people in their lives.

Jillian and I met when my little brother (excitedly) said he wanted to introduce me to his new girlfriend to me :) we bonded over delicious food & drink adventures, expansive convos and a mutual love of teasing Christopher (and keeping him on his toes). Its been a party ever since and she's the best future sister-in-law a gal could ask for!

Thirteen years ago, I got my first compliment from the Mckay Family and it came from Christopher. He thought my shirt was cool. I went on to marry his sister and become part of the family. I’m glad I did because I got the single greatest brother-in-law of all time. Christopher is generous, cool, and family focused . His approach to his craft, whether it’s on the golf course or in the gulag, is one of determination, dedication , and success. Finally, he is the only guy I know that can get 293 hours of sleep a night and still be tired at 8:45pm the following night. Slainté!

What started out as partners in Spanish class at UMSL, turned into life long friends! My forever party rock crew. The Lillian to my Annie!

Christopher has always been more of a brother than a cousin to me. From our days going to summer basketball camp in Upper Arlington and eating copious amounts of pizza to attending Space Camp in Alabama and being heralded as one of the best fighter pilot duos in the summer of '01, we have always been great teammates. Christopher has always been someone I could count on for unrelenting support and belief in my pursuits. I am excited for his next chapter in life and I cannot wait to be there to share in those experiences!

Though I wouldn't let her nap during Kindergarten we share a love of napping now! Moving, pageants and the one time she had bangs, been there through it all and can't wait to celebrate!

Christopher and I became friends and teammates in 2008 when he was a freshman on the college golf team. Over the 4 years we spent as roommates in Nashville, he introduced me to the Ohio State Buckeyes, he beat me repeatedly at Mario Kart, we went on several road-trips, and we were a dominating beer-pong team. Christopher is the most dedicated, determined, and driven individual I know and it is evident in everything he pursues in his personal and professional life. I am honored and lucky to be a part of this incredible group of people who have so much love for Christopher and Jillian.

We were pre-gaming at my apartment and Jillian just walked into my apartment without knocking and introduced herself. We've been connected ever since. She knows what to say to make your day better. No one has inspired or uplifted me more than Jillian

Christopher has become one of the greatest friends in my life. He constantly surprises me with the depths of his kindness and patience. I feel honored to stand next to him as a witness of his great love for Jillian.

Our relationship is filled with laughter, great advice, and me getting boogers out of Jillian's nose lol but I love our relationship and the fact we have always been comfortable to do so!

Christopher and I met at the Joule in Dallas as part of a surprise birthday party for my wife. I hadn’t met him beforehand, but with all of the great things J was saying about Christopher, it felt like I’d known him forever. It’s rare to find a friend that is so loving/caring and at the same time a complete goofball. Christopher at times has said “I’m grateful to have such amazing people in my life”, but honestly it’s the other way around. Couldn’t imagine life without you brother.

Although we started as co-workers, recapping weekends over lunch and visiting famous hippos during work travel, we quickly became "Lil Morty" and "Lil SoSo" - girlfriends that lift each other up, that have each other's back and that stand by each other through all seasons.

Christopher and I really got to know each other for the first time at a friend's Thanksgiving party. We discovered that we shared a few hobbies and our friendship grew from there. A few of my hobbies are pool, video games and poker, while his hobbies seem to include beating me at pool, video games and poker. Christopher is genuinely one of the best guys I know and I'm excited to stand with the happy couple on their big day

Two tall chicks walk into a hair salon on Cinco de Mayo... The year was 2016 & we were attending a social networking event in downtown Dallas. They had an epic snack table that neither of us could resist. Our love for food literally brought us together & the friendship has been nothing short of 5 stars!

It’s very difficult to put a 10 year friendship into a few sentences, it’s just not possible, but I can say these things about Christopher. Christopher is somebody who cares and wants to see the best come out of that person. He is the smartest guy I know, not in a book sense, but just smart at life and everyday living as a whole. He has always been there for me through thick and thin, and I know he will do the same for you Jillian. He loves you unconditionally and I can’t wait to see what blossoms out of this beautiful marriage.
