Wedding Party
Katie Buchanan
Maid of Honor
Katie and I met when we were just 5 years old at Cottonwood Elementary School. Our kindergarten class had about 4 girls total, so we were instantly friends. However, I moved to a different kindergarten class we continued to be friends. In middle school, we did everything together. However, Katie's family moved and we did not attend high school together. Katie and I were quickly reunited and roommates at Washington State University. I cannot picture my day without the girl who has been with me through it all.
Grecia Taylor
Bridesmaid
Grecia and I have known one another since middle school. However, our friendship didn't bloom till a math class together our senior year of high school. This math class really prepared us for a friendship in college. Grecia was basically Katie and I's third roommate at WSU! However, Grecia continued her studies at WSU Pullman, when I had to move to WSU Spokane. During this time, we continued to be friends and stay in contact. After graduation, Grecia and I moved back to Yakima. During our gap year, we did everything together! We created Yakima Yums, found our love for cycling, pretended to be sisters, had holidays together, and so much more. Grecia is the friend that I can call no matter what and I am excited for this next memory together!
Shelby Garman
Bridesmaid
Shelby and I met going into our junior year at WSU and our first years at WSU Spokane. Some may say we were random roommates, and I guess they aren't exactly wrong. Shelby and I had/have a mutual friend who was our third roommate. However, Shelby and I really grew in our friendship over the summer between our junior and senior year of college. We got to explore Spokane together and grow in our independence. Over the years, Shelby and I have always taken care of one another, no matter where the other person is. She literally FaceTimed me minutes after being engaged even when she was at work in New Zealand. Shelby is the friend you can call anytime and she will be there! I know that no matter where in the world she is, I can count on her!

Tee and Alexis met while playing soccer at Phoenix College. The two instantly meshed. Today the two of them can be found coaching at Washington together, talking soccer (of course), and drinking maragaritas.
Johnny Dunbar

Tee and Johnny met while playing soccer together at Phoenix College. The two of them hit it off and have been friends ever since. To this day, they continue to enjoy playing soccer together, watching sports (especially any Arizona team), and enjoying a cold beer.
Swa Ha
Groomsman
Tee and Swa first met through soccer (yes, there is a theme). However, it was not at Phoenix College. Tee was actually Swa's high school soccer coach. Following Swa's graduation, they became friends. They now coach at Washington together as well as work there! They enjoy playing video games together and just talking all things soccer.
