Mercedes Frederick & Dakota Hallaway
Wedding Party
Jennifer Abendshien
Maid of Honor
I met Jennifer when we were 10 years old and we have been friends ever since. Even though there were times when we were in our own paths, whenever we got the chance to get together it was as if no time passed at all. Jennifer has been a true friend. She is sweet, funny, and never lets me be alone in a silly moment. We have only gotten closer through the years and even more so recently along with her fiancée Cooper doing walking dogs, going on trips, and game nights. I cannot wait to celebrate this special day with her and am so excited for more adventures moving forward!
Dakota Lynn Myette
Bridesmaid
Growing up I have always seen Dakota more as my sister than a cousin. I cherish our memories through our childhood playing outside building forts and playing whatever games we could imagine. No matter what she always has my back and I love the times we spend together. Dakota is strong, loving and loyal and will always be there for the ones she loves. I am so proud of the person she has grown to be and will continue to be. I am excited to celebrate our special day with her and make more memories!
Savannah Newman
Bridesmaid
I met Savannah around a year ago through my fiancé Dakota when she played on their soccer team. It did not take me long to see how fun, adventurous, and loving she is. Savannah is a great friend and we cannot wait to celebrate our special day with her and continue to go on more adventures in the future! Savannah is one of the most amazing people I’ve ever met. She’s a ball of love, kindness, and trouble all in one. Amazing soccer player, and great friend. She’s been extremely helpful in our wedding plans and giving any time we hangout. I admire Savanah so much and grateful she allowed me to force myself into her life haha.
Brynna McGinnis
Bridesmaid
I went to high-school with Brynna but it was not until Dakota began to play soccer with her when I really got to know her. She is witty, funny, and a sweet person. Has been a good friend and will continue to have more adventures together. I had the pleasure to meet brynna during soccer. She has a great sense of humor and has been extremely fun to play soccer with. She’s very funny, i love our inside humor together, and the moments we’ve helped each other grow. She’s allowed me to have the pleasure of getting to know her family who are amazing like her. I am excited for the future and enjoying more moments and making more memories. My secret wifey <3
Cooper Mirich
Best Man
I’ve had the pleasure of becoming coopers best friend through Jenni my fiancées maid of honor. We have enjoyed working out weekly together, golfing occasionally, and potentially soon playing soccer on the same team. Almost every night we walk our dogs and it’s a chance for us to just share thoughts on life. Cooper is extremely hard working, ethical, and a loyal friend. I’m looking forward to celebrating my wedding with him and growing along side him in life.
Joe Ahlin
Groomsman
Joe Ahlin is my longest child hood friend. Whenever I was at my lowest or needed someone there Joe never hesitated. Some of my favorite memories were spent with Joe. We were really good at getting into trouble, although it was probably my fault most of the time. I’ll always see Joe as a brother. Ive enjoyed watching him play baseball, to running cross country. Loyal is the word that comes to mind when I think of Joe. I’m honored he’ll be standing next to me as I get married.
Brandon Lentz
Groomsman
I’ve known Brandon since we were both kids. We grew up playing soccer mostly against one another. However, recently we have had the pleasure of playing on the same team. We’ve done friends giving to game nights to hopefully snowboarding trips. I can say one thing is very consistent he is injury prone. I appreciate Brandon I believe he comes from a wonderful family and embodies his parents best qualities. I am truly honored to have him standing next to me on my wedding and can’t wait for future experiences we have together!
Scott Tommassetti
Groomsman
My future husband - not Savanah’s
