Wedding Party

Melissa Sears

Bride

As the wedding day draws near, I reflect on the incredible woman we are about to celebrate—not just as a bride, but as someone I’m lucky to call my sister-in-law. From the very beginning, you’ve brought a sense of light and steadiness into our family. You have this quiet strength about you—an ability to make people feel seen, heard, and loved in an effortless way. Your presence has been a gift not only to T.C. , but to all of us who have had the joy of getting to know your heart. You carry yourself with such grace, balancing kindness and courage, softness and resilience. You listen with intention, love without condition, and give of yourself in ways that leave a lasting mark. It’s no wonder T.C. fell in love with you—how could anyone not? Seeing the two of you together is witnessing something truly rare: a partnership built on respect, laughter, shared dreams, and that kind of quiet loyalty that doesn’t need to be spoken to be deeply understood. You bring out the best in each other, and it’s been a joy to watch your love grow from something beautiful into something unshakable. As you prepare to step into this new chapter, just know how deeply cherished you are—not just as a bride-to-be, but as a sister, a friend, and now, forever, a part of our family. Your love story is just beginning, and we’re all so excited to stand beside you as it unfolds. Enjoy the journey!!!! Remember to keep the "3" Cords of Marriage first.

Stacy Sears

Maid of Honor

In God’s perfect timing, Stacy entered my life through family connection years ago. Over time, she became so much more than a relative—she became my sister in Christ. Raised in the great state of Texas, Stacy’s roots run deep in faith and Southern grace. And now, by God’s design, I find myself living in this ‘Promised Land’ too. Our bond, built on a shared love for the Lord, is a beautiful reminder of how God weaves lasting friendships into our lives. I’m so grateful for the gift of her friendship and the journey we share in faith.

Joey Billig

Best Man

A Good Man and a Lifelong Friend Joey has been a steadfast friend since the fifth grade—loyal, honest, and rooted in faith. Over the years, he has proven time and again what it means to be a good Christian man: someone who leads with love, walks with integrity, and treats others with kindness and respect. Joey doesn’t just speak about values—he lives them. His word is as strong as his character, and his heart is grounded in truth. I would trust him with my life, without hesitation. His presence in my life has been a blessing, and I couldn’t imagine this day without him standing by our side. He is more than a friend—he’s a brother in every way that matters.
