Sarah & Mason
Wedding Party
Darby Hall
Maid of Honor
Darby is the love of Sarah's life -- sorry, she is the second love of Sarah's life, after Mason. Darby and Sarah have always been a package deal: two soul sisters separated at birth who have a friendship, connection, and bond that is love in its purest form. Sarah still plans to live the rest of her days with Darby - sorry, no, Mason.
Tyler MacDonald
Best Man
Tyler and Mason met back in 2020 at the Black Sheep Lodge on South Congress. After a few months of getting to know each other and splitting the most expensive menu items at various restaurants, they became fast friends. Whether they're playing disc golf, going to BBQ festivals, or going to happy hours, they've built years of great memories - and a stronger vocabulary - together. Mason couldn't be happier to have him standing by his side on such an important day. Sheboygan
Courtney MacDonald
Bridesmaid
Courtney is a beautiful land mermaid who graced the world with her presence in 1992. You could say she's like a ray of sunshine on an already beautiful day and you would be 100% correct. Sarah and Courtney are two peas in a pod and can usually be found gabbing, laughing, quilting, crafting, snacking, and cuddling her sweet pup, Ruby.
Tyler Allison
Groomsman
Tyler quickly became a part of Mason's life ever since they met at the Thicket food truck park back in 2023. That was the day that Mason first witnessed Tyler's inhuman ability to inhale astonishing amounts of protein, and it would not be the last. But Tyler’s legendary appetite is easily overshadowed by his selflessness and dependability. He shows up for friends and family without hesitation, willing to help out at the drop of a hat. Through climbing, shooting, camping, and an almost dangerously similar sense of humor, Tyler and Mason quickly became close friends. Mason could not imagine standing here today without him.
Kira Allison
Bridesmaid
Kira is all that is good in the world--the kindest, sweetest, labubu-loving soul. Kira and Sarah can usually be found watching a romantic period piece drama or spending hours quilting and giggling together in Sarah's craft room/sewing sweatshop. Have they left the sewing sweatshop yet? Probably not. They won't make it to the wedding either, there's quilting to be done.
Conor Puckett
Groomsman
Conor is THE big brother (only by 717 days) and has been part of Mason's life since day 1. Throughout their early lives, Conor was always there for Mason, helping and shaping (sometimes fairly roughly) Mason into who he is today. In 2015 Conor and Mason embarked upon perhaps their most impactful adventure to date, thru hiking the Pacific Crest Trail. During that life-changing experience, they grew closer and learned to depend on one another. For those same reasons, Mason will once again depend on Conor to stand by him as he forges this new chapter of his life.
Sarah Johnson
Bridesmaid
Sarah's oldest friend, "best fries," and sister separated at birth - the Luigi to Sarah's Mario. They met in 2005 and have been Sarah Squared ever since. Don't get between these two and a game of super mario world 3 on the super nintendo -- you don't stand a chance.
Colin Tolimer
Groomsman
Colin and Mason met in 2006 at the junior high lunch table and had a bit of an odd start to their friendship; you'll have to ask Colin about that one though. Beginning with their ladder club membership through to college roommates and after, they've had their fair share of adventures together. Colin and Mason have always been there for each other through thick and thin and will continue to do so. Known to those who are lucky enough to have had the chance, Colin is genuinely someone that anyone would be lucky to call a friend. For these reasons and a million more, Mason could not imagine this day without Colin standing by his side
Lindsey Poulton
Bridesmaid
Is there a more perfect angel to grace the earth than Lindsey Poulton? No. Sarah would give Lindsey her left leg if she asked for it. When Sarah and Lindsey get together, no one knows where they'll end up, or what new friend they'll make. The world is their oyster and life is always a party when they're together!
Tom Bank
Groomsman
Tom and Mason have been close since they met in Austin back in 2021. Known for his fluent Spanish, wanderlust, and critical aiming skills with roman candles, Tom is a one of a kind person who's always the life of the party. A legendary beer die teammate and a steadfast friend, Mason couldn't be happier to have Tom standing by his side.
Sage Castillo
Bridesmaid
Sage is one of the many loves of Sarah's life--a modern day goddess. She was also one of Sarah's first friends when she moved to Utah! The two of them are like peanut butter and jelly. With gluten free bread. Sarah and Sage can usually be found on an outdoor adventure, at a concert, or just giggling together over a glass of wine. Life is good when you have Sage by your side :)
Michael Schantz
Groomsman
Michael and Mason first met during a high school passing period about 17 years ago. You wouldn't know it at the time but this seemingly random encounter would be the beginning of a lifelong friendship. Know to all as the best Blitz 2000 player, a man whose kindness is only rivaled by his unpredictability, and a survivor of the Panama-City-Beach-Spring-Break-Debacle of 2014, Michael has become one of Mason's closest friends. For these reasons and more—some of which are best left off the record—Michael stands beside Mason today.
Leah Spanhel
Bridesmaid
Sarah's sister-in-law and fellow craft, thrift, and cat enthusiast! Leah is the best addition to the family that Sarah could ask for, and the two of them can usually be found crafting, sewing, or thrifting together! Or talking about cats. Lots and lots of cats.
Sam Simmons
Groomsman
In 2002 Mason moved schools and was placed in Mrs. Cochran's 2nd grade class right next to Sam. Little did they know, that would be the start of a 20+ year friendship. Throughout their schooling, and after, Sam and Mason loved trips to Schlitterbahn, Lord of the Rings (extended edition of course), and Cheez-It's. Mason couldn't imagine this day without Sam.
Kelly Matlock
Bridesmaid
Sarah was the baby of the family until 5 years later when Kelly came and took that title--and all the perks of being the baby--away. Sarah and Kelly can usually be found singing Taylor Swift and playing games on the super nintendo, where Sarah always wins.
Cooper Rimkus
Groomsman
Cooper and Mason met at Texas State University in 2014, solidifying their college group that would forever be known as the six.. guys. Cooper is always there with a joke or two to lift spirits and a glass or two to down 'em. The recipient of Romo's Back: "Commissioner of the year award" and Zanzibar's "Pinball Highest Scorer", Mason couldn't be happier to have Cooper stand by him.
Ian Turek
Groomsman
Ian and Mason first met at summer daycare in 1999, then reconnected in seventh grade and became fast friends. In college, they were roommates and spent exactly one evening on their balcony drinking a beer called The Philosophizer and snacking on pubmix—a ritual they always meant to do again. Ian has been there through so many chapters of Mason’s life, always ready with laughs, a joke, or just good company. Mason couldn’t imagine standing at the altar without him by his side.
