Wedding Party
Hannah McNeill
Bride
Hannah McNeill is a smart and gorgeous young lady who is highly talented in the sourdough arts. Hannah is from North Carolina and attended the University of Arkansas. While at UARK, Hannah met a big, handsome man named Hunter (hence why you are reading this). Hannah is the sweetest and most kind individual one could ever meet. She brightens every room she walks into and makes Hunter incredibly happy. She dabbles in aerospace engineering and homesteading (the best of both worlds). A lover of coffee shops, Hobby Lobby, and dogs is the best way to describe this adorable human.
Hunter James
Groom
A beautiful young man, hearing from the piney hills of Vernon Parish. Hunter is a charming and vibrant soul who loves to connect with God's creation. When not tied up being a corporate pawn during the week, he can be found spending time with his (almost) wife, Hannah, hiking, or playing the highly physical sport of disc golf. Hunter loves to make people laugh and enjoys spending quality time with friends and family. He also loves Indian food, so you can totally give him some gift cards and whatnot.
Delaney Piantanida
Maid of Honor
Delaney, Debruh, Delisha, Debracabra, Dequarious, and Delph. These are the titles bestowed upon the great Delaney. Delaney is a nurse, which is funny because sometimes she doesn't take her much-needed medicine (IYKYK). Delaney is a kind and funny person and became Hannah's best friend while attending UARK. She is known for her infamous facial expressions and her unparalleled love for Olive Garden. Delaney was not the biggest fan of Hunter when he started dating Hannah, but she has become one of Hunter's favorite people. If you happen to see Debruh out on the dance floor, be sure to request to see her Fortnite dance. Also, if you are a single, white man, we are sorry, she is not interested.
Hunter Robertson
Best Man
Bean, Noogie, and Big Boy are all names that you may know the Hunter Robertson by. Big Hunter (James) attended elementary through high school with short Hunter (Robertson). Short Hunter, much like Big Hunter, loved to fish - which is what ultimately sparked their friendship freshman year of high school. Hunter is a lover of health products, vegetables, and, most of all, deviled eggs. Don't let his smug demeanor fool you; he is a soft little guy on the inside. He has been there for Big Hunter through thick and thin. Mostly thick because they are both overweight.
Carley Gunn
Bridesmaid
Kurt, or as you may know her, Carley, is a funny and down-to-earth young lady. Carley and Hannah met while in their college sorority. She is a lover of selfies, snow selfies, coffee shop selfies, car selfies, mirror selfies, selfies with her man, selfies with her friends, and lastly Sour Skittles. Keep count if you hear her start to sneeze. You will lose count. If you see this joyous individual start to 'renegade,' just go ahead and take a step back.
Beau James
Groomsman
Sweet sweet Beauzo. Beau entered this decrepit world in 2007 and gave Hunter just what he wanted - a partner in battling the evil forces that opposed us (Madison James). Beau is a kind and gentle little boy with an inability to digest lactose properly. If you see him eating ice cream at the wedding, please stop him. Much like his rugged older brother, Beau enjoys being a woodsman. Much unlike his older brother, Beau has no rizz, so if you could find him a mate, that would be helpful. All jokes aside, Beau and Hunter were mortal enemies for much of their childhood, but he has become one of Hunter's best friends and is very proud of the young woman he has blossomed into.
Lauren Wing
Bridesmaid
Lauren is one of Hannah's longtime best friends, starting back in 6th grade. Ms. Wing is a pop culture guru, a professional Rock Band guitarist, and a lover of a good concert. A creative mind that enjoys art, spending time with her family, or sleeping well into the afternoon. If not walking her dog Luna, she can be found holding down the fort at a cutsie jewelry store in downtown Raleigh. She is gluten-free though, so no bread for her.
Drew Adams
Groomsman
Drew is one of Hunter's oldest best friends. When Drew and Hunter met in 7th grade, it was the start of a long, nerdy, and laugh-filled friendship. Drew and Hunter bonded over the finer things in life, such as Marvel and Halo Reach. Leesville's Taco Bell stayed in business solely due to the efforts of Drew and Hunter in 2016. From watching BigFoot Found Footage films to arguing over how to pronounce silicon, Drew has been present in many of Hunter's favorite memories over the years.
Jessica Denton
Bridesmaid
Ole Jessica Denton, or as Hunter so mistakenly called her, "Mrs. Cannon". Jess is a modern-day Renaissance woman with many creative talents. Not only is she one of Hannah's bridesmaids, but she is also the brain behind the coordination of this very matrimony. She loves traveling and spending time with her tall and handsome baseball-playing husband. Jess served as the highly regarded VP to Hannah's presidency in their college sorority and visited Hannah's hometown during their sophomore year spring break. She can throw together a fabulous charcuterie board in an instant and is very prone to migraines.
Levi Allen
Groomsman
During high school, Hunter began working at Nichols Dry Goods and encountered a rather large and rude-looking guy behind the gun counter. That man was the legend himself, Levi Allen. Before long, Hunter and Levi really clicked. They bonded over the gossip of crazy coworkers and hilarious work-related injuries. His incredible fashion styles and his immaculate taste in nerd stuff make Levi quite a unique individual. One of Hunter's favorite memories with Levi was a trip they took to Galveston alongside short Hunter. Ask one of them about it - it's quite funny.
Madison James
Bridesmaid
Madison Paige James -where does one begin? Madison is blessed to be the younger sister of the charming groom. Madison is one of Hannah and Hunter's favorite people. A hilarious and highly intellectually gifted young lady. Often referred to as "Dawg", Madison is a joy to be around and will certainly give you a look if she does not agree with you in the slightest. Hunter thoroughly enjoyed traumatizing Madison via scary pranks and well-timed jokes while growing up. If you don't know Madison, just look for someone who looks like the groom but in a purple dress.
Max Cloudy
Groomsman
Max is a true American hero (police officer). He has served on the front lines of Rosepine and is now on a tour in the war fields of DeRidder, Louisiana. Hunter met Max in 2023 when Madison had a new boyfriend that she wanted everyone to meet. Although he has a quiet and reserved disposition, Max is hilarious and is always willing to give a helping hand. If you have the chance to know Max, you are lucky! Also, it should be noted that Max was not only added to the bridal party due to diversity and equity requirements - he is truly loved by Hunter and Hannah.
Avery Rabalais
Jr. Bridesmaid
Avery Jewel is a Swiftie to her bones and a core member of the "Pup Squad" cheerleading team at her school. If you have long hair, beware, as Avery will likely ask to braid it. She loves to sing and dance, and has been a great friend to Hannah from the beginning. Hannah is so excited to have Avery as part of her bridesmaids!
Lainey Rabalais
Flower Girl
Lainey Bug is a slightly feral child with the sweetest personality! She is a champion at pocking (if you're from North Carolina, you gotta Google it) and recently starred alongside her sister in a Broadway-level performance of Willy Wonka. The cutest Oompa Loompas you have ever seen! Lainey will tear up the dance floor so be ready!
Noah McNeill
Ring Bearer
Noah is wise beyond his years and a lover of all things Spiderman, Mario, and Lego! He loves to spend time with his family, help his mom in the kitchen, and play with his friends at the park.
Caleb McNeill
Ring Bearer
Caleb is tough on the outside and sweet on the inside. He is an upcoming D1 athlete and T-ball superstar. He enjoys hanging out with his Grandpa, family movie night, and eating lots of food!
