Brooke Fullam
Maid of Honor
I had the sweetest honor of meeting McKenna in sixth grade English class. We had the same goofy sense of humor and immediately both knew this was a lifelong friendship. I've watched her grow into the most amazing woman, nurse, mother, and now wife! It is my honor to help her get married.
Rebecca Bedor
Maid of Honor
I met McKenna in eighth grade when she moved here from Arizona. I remember seeing her for the first time and thinking to myself, damn she looks like a bitch. Fast forward to freshmen year of high school and I got the chance to really meet and the rest has been history. We became inseparable. What I did, she did and what she did, I did. We have been through every first with each other by our sides. The good things, the bad things, and the life-altering things. We have supported each other through things that I'm sure no one else even knows about. I still remember the days that McKenna told me she was pregnant with her boys and the night that Alex proposed to her. I have been lucky enough to be there for it all. McKenna is the best friend I could have ever asked for. She is my person.

Kenna and I met 21 years ago when I became her little sister. We have shared countless memories and adventures since then. I am honored and beyond excited to be part of this wedding.
Kerigan Wales
Bridesmaid
McKenna and I first met 19 years ago when I came into this world. Kenna and I didn't always get along but we were always there for each other. I also continue to conceal some of the things that she used to do when our mom wasn't home. I am so happy and excited to be a part of her big day.
Kinley Burgess
Bridesmaid
McKenna and I met back in eighth grade. We became best friends instantly. There has never been a dull moment in our friendship. I am happy to call her my best friend.
Stephanie Dwyer
Bridesmaid
I met Kenna about five years ago when she began dating my baby brother. I have always been fiercely protective of Alex but Kenna won me over almost immediately and we became fast friends. Kenna is an incredibly kind, caring, and supportive person and an amazing mom and aunt. She is a wonderful addition to our family and while I already consider her my sister, I am so excited to stand with her and Alex as they make it official!
Paige Carr
Bridesmaid
I met Kenna in Spanish class in high school; she was a freshman and I was a sophomore. That was the only class we had together at that time so we didn't interact much. When she joined the field hockey and softball teams is when we started building our friendship. We would spend so much time together that my parents would refer to her as their "other daughter" and Jaime with me. Kenna holds a very special place in my life and for her, I am forever blessed. Seeing how happy she is with Alex brings me so much joy knowing she has found her person to create a beautiful life with along with the boys. Nothing beats seeing your best friend marry the love of her life. Cheers to Kenna and Alex!

Best Man
How do you tell a story of how you met someone you've known your whole life? As far back as I can remember, Alex and I have always been brothers. We fight, argue, laugh, and share common goals and expectations. As I have been told, I had just started daycare at Lily Pond Road around the age of three. Alex was already attending. Alex and I would fight over toys constantly. One day we were fighting over a toy and I got the best of him and our parents were called. Ever since then, wherever one of us went, the other was sure to follow no matter who was leading.

I have known Alex since middle school where we were both in the band but didn't become friends until we were both in high school. We shared common interests in snowboarding, music, and bad ideas in general, that led us to hang out a lot. We have been close friends ever since.
Curtis Keefer
Groomsman
Alex and I go back all the way to graded school at Lyndon Town School where we both played on the basketball team together. We found many outlets that we bonded over throughout the years, such as our love for snowboarding and video games. Most notable is that he has always been there during my darkest times and I couldn't ask for a better best friend.

Alex is fourteen years younger than me, but in a lot of ways, we're the same. I wasn't there for Alex growing up, I was doing my own thing and really, he was just an accident according to my parents. Alex was and always will be my dad's favorite. I'm not sure how he did it, but it's true and Steph knows it. I love my little brother, Kenna, and their little family. I have to admit that little Jaxon is the coolest little fella I have ever met.
Sam Spaulding
Groomsman
I met Alex the same way most people meet their younger siblings. I don't remember much from then, but I do remember that Alex was born dangerously early. He had to be kept in one of those incubator machines at Dartmouth. Our family would constantly be driving to Dartmouth. I have a ton of memories with Alex as a kid, the games we would play and the trouble we would cause. As far as memories of him as a baby, I have almost none, other than that machine. We couldn't touch, hug, or hold him. My parents worried but never let it show. I remember the day that he finally came home and how happy everyone was. He was no longer alone. Instead, he was home with his family where he belonged. So actually, it's not like with most siblings, but that day, I officially met my younger brother.

Groomsman
I first met Alex when I started dating his older sister. I was 17 when we met and he was 8. Over the last 22 years, he has become a good friend that I have shared many great times and a lot of laughter with. I look forward to standing with him on his wedding day and welcoming Kenna into the family.

Alex and I met freshman year of high school. We were introduced through Garrett, who I had a couple of classes with and hung out with a few times before Alex wanted to hang out too. We all were pretty much inseparable after that. Alex spent more and more time at my place throughout high school. Those times are the highlight of my teenage years. Alex is a great guy and I can't wait to see him start the next chapter of his life.

I am so very excited to officiate the wedding of my brother-in-law and future sister-in-law. I've known Alex for twenty years and I am so happy he found his soulmate. It's also very handy having a nurse in this crazy family!
