Wedding Party
Jordan Hoard
Maid of Honor
To keep it short and sweet… Jordan “Jojo” was my very first best friend. We met when we were 4 and 5-years-old in Liberty Lake, WA when my parents and I moved into the “Desmet Ct” cul-de-sac neighborhood. Best friends, but more like sisters. Barbie Jeeps, mischief and more! Different schools, different states— and nothing has ever changed! Two little girls, amazed by Mr. Stone’s pilot career, set off to purchase matching suitcases at their local TJ Maxx and plotted their dream trip to the Big Apple… Well, decades later, our time has come!
Trevor McCourt
Best Man
My older brother, Trevor, has always been someone I’ve looked up to—even if I spent most of my childhood annoying him and getting beat up in return. Over the years, we’ve developed an unbreakable bond and not only has he been my big brother, but my closest friend. Trevor has three beautiful children—my nephews and niece—who are so lucky to have him as their dad. Recently, I had the honor of standing by his side while he married an amazing woman, Katie McCourt. I couldn’t be more proud to have him by my side today.
Mckinley McFadden
Bridesmaid
Mckinley will bring the party! If you haven't heard her laugh, you are in for treat at the Wedding! I always wanted a sister, and "Micky" became one as soon as we were brought together in their early teens. At one point in time, we shared a bedroom, shared each others' clothes, surfed (or tried) and dreamt of buying a house in Laguna Beach together. Not much has changed, we still have a very special bond and feed off each others' energies. You can find Mckinley studying for her nursing program, running by the beach and cooking fantastic meals.
Danny Rice
Groomsman
Danny is my older cousin and someone I’ve always looked up to. He introduced me to hockey when we were growing up together, and sparked my love for the game. More importantly, he’s always been there for me and has been a true role model. I’m grateful to have him here today and proud to have him by my side on this special day.
Chloe McFadden
Bridesmaid
Chloe is truly the star of the show- the funniest and biggest personality in the room. From the moment I met this spirited junior lifeguard and soccer-playing comedian, I knew I’d found the little sister I’d always dreamed of having. Chloe embraced calling me her big sister from day one, proudly telling any friends and neighbors. She was always ready for any adventure, always having an answer or creative suggestion. Chloe exudes creativity, she can sew or design anything, and will tell you honestly if your outfit works (or not). I still envision the tiny Chloe with a pink bow on top of her head, but loves the young woman she's become up at Chico State. The baby sis of the trio.
Grady Hallaian
Groomsman
Grady is my best friend, and we go way back to when we met through mutual friends in Huntington Beach. We made some of the best memories together through our 20s and early 30s, and even though he’s now living in Tennessee, we still get together any chance we can. I’m lucky to have him here with me today.
Caitlin Markham
Bridesmaid
Caitlin and I met in the summer of 2023 when Max and I started dating. From the beginning, we always had a great time together—BBQing, playing games, and laughing nonstop! She’s an amazing mom to two beautiful baby girls, and whenever she finds a moment to herself, she shares her passion for skincare and healthy living. I’m so grateful to have her by my side today. Excited to officially have her as my new sister!
James Markham
Groomsman
I met James on the 4th of July years back, and from day one, I let him know that if he ever hurt my baby sister, he’d have me to answer to. I couldn’t imagine our family without him, and am grateful for the wonderful life he’s built with Caitlin and their two beautiful daughters. I’m proud to call him my brother. If James isn’t spending quality time with his girl-gang, you can find him enjoying an IPA or surfing.
Katie McCourt
Bridesmaid
I met Katie during the holidays of 2023 and immediately saw her kindness, selflessness, and deep love for the entire McCourt family—especially Eli, Theo, and Isla, whom she loves as her own. Katie has an amazing sense of humor and spends much of her time in the sky as a flight attendant for United. I’m so grateful to have inherited such a wonderful sister-in-law like Katie.
Dane DeLaney
Groomsman
Dane and I go all the way back to the 2nd grade and have been best friends ever since. We’ve made a lot of great memories together, from UCLA football games to spending time with his family. Even though he lives in Hawaii now, we’ll always be great friends. I’m grateful to have him here today.
Charles Burks
Groomsman
Charles and I met at Talbert Middle School and instantly became best friends. We grew up playing football together, and those early days built a friendship that’s lasted a lifetime. I’m lucky to have him here with me today.
