Matron of Honor
Words fail. Sister of the bride and dearly loved. Matron of Honor had to be her.
Bridesmaid
Meredith and Rachel met through youth orchestra in high school, attended the same college, and got each other in a bit of trouble giggling in conducting class. Meredith has the best laugh, y'all! She also sends the sweetest cards. A true "pick up wherever you left off" friendship!
Bridesmaid
Tiffany and Rachel met in freshman music theory, shared a house their last two years of school, and still talk almost weekly. At this point, Tiff's husband, Jarrett, just chimes right in on their long phone calls (which suits them just fine), and the family dog always barks hello!
Bridesmaid
Tabatha and Rachel met through church their senior year of high school and bonded forever over their shared love of French fries and adventures (they have a few stories). They still observe their "friendiversary" every Easter, even though they met at Christmas. They know that doesn't make sense. It does to them.
Bridesmaid
Alex and Rachel met through church their freshman and sophomore years of high school, respectively, and decided to be friends always because of their shared love of cheesecake, old movies, and common sense. They also strongly agree that strawberries should always have the tops removed - easier to dip in whipped cream that way. Alex doesn't gab a lot, but she is the definition of a "Can Always Count On Her" friend.
Bridesmaid
Karissa and Rachel met in college/grad school, which they survived (barely) thanks to stress eating their way through copious quantities of frozen yogurt when they probably should have been practicing (YogurtLand has the best yogurt, in case you were wondering. It's the creamiest).
House Party
Although Sarah and Rachel attended grad school together, they didn't really become friends until after graduation, when they discovered a shared love of cooking. These days, they're on a quest to master hollandaise sauce. She's also just one of the sweetest people you'll ever meet.
House Party
Catherine and Rachel also met in college/grad school. They were in the same violin studio with Karissa. Catherine's a truly faithful friend with a wicked sense of humor and a deep, deep love of really good coffee :-)
Best Man
Always claiming, "I did it first", James is Cody's oldest sibling and only brother. Despite having been born first, playing the trumpet first, and getting married first, he nevertheless is one of Cody's biggest mentors and his best friend.
Groomsman
Josh and Cody met in the second grade at Sunday school. They immediately bonded over riding their mini dirt bikes in circles around the house for many hours. Despite not always having many words to say to each other, Josh has been a second brother to Cody ever since elementary school.
Groomsman
Cody often describes Taylor as his best friend north of the Mason Dixon. They met during college at Reformed University Fellowship. Taylor, who Cody believes to be the more musically gifted of the two, would often invite Cody to various corners of campus to jam. After Taylor let loose some awesome riffs on piano or accordion, they'd end up on his back porch, discussing anything and everything.
Groomsman
Otherwise known as "Foxy", Spencer and Cody also met during RUF at SMU. They bonded over bible study, hunting, music, and more shenanigans than should be recounted.
Usher
Bearing the title of "tallest person on Cody's side of the family", Bobby claimed this title by marrying Cody's only sister, Amy.

Ryan is Rachel and Megan's dearly loved brother, and he remains remarkably cheerful about being sandwiched between two girls. Poor chap - he's been subjected to more viewings of Pride & Prejudice than any man should ever have to endure. Understandably, he's very excited to finally have some brothers in law. Ryan is also serving as the cross bearer for the ceremony.
Usher
Josiah went and made the maid of honor a matron - he's married to Rachel's sister, Megan. Although he and Megan were born within four hours of each other in California, they met in Pennsylvania and we're softening him on Tejas as fast as we can. The tacos help.
Usher
Did Cody get taller?? Nope, that’s Collin - a fellow redhead! Cody met Collin and his wife, Haddon, at Fort Worth Presbyterian Church during his first week back in Fort Worth. They have been great friends ever since.
