Meredith Little

Bride


Patrick Henning

Groom

Caroline Hagan

Maid of Honor

Childhood Best Friend Caroline quickly became my best friend in the summer of 1992 when she made her world debut. Our parents were next door neighbors so naturally, we spent every day together. Growing up going to the same schools and spending every Holiday together, we became like sisters, inseparable. Caroline was always the one to follow the rules and keep me in line while I considerably pushed her to do the opposite. While we may differ on sports teams (LSWho??) our hearts & friendship remain intertwined. She's been at my side since birth and I could not imagine my big day without her.


Catherine Ann Smith

Matron of Honor

Childhood Best Friend Cat had a lot of catching up to do since her older sister Caroline (yes, my maid and matron are sisters) and I had already established a solid foundation. In our younger years, Caroline and I picked on Catherine Ann and my younger sister Reagan relentlessly. After we gained some maturity (and maybe some remorse for our actions) Cat became close with the two of us. When my sister unexpectedly passed in 2001, Cat unknowingly stepped into the younger sister role for me. I am happy to say that we are now closer than ever and she has been a tremendous help with bridal advice. She refuses to be on payroll for her wedding expert services but that's just the kindhearted person that she is.

Josie Henning

Bridesmaid

Sister of the Groom When Patrick first told me about his younger sister Josie he knew we would get along. With our backgrounds in the performing arts and mutual love for the Queen, Beyonce, it's no secret we hit it off immediately. When I first met The Hennings, Josie allegedly pulled Patrick aside to say that I was "the one". It was then that I knew that Josie had immaculate taste. I am thrilled to have her as my soon-to-be sister-in-law and cannot wait for everyone to see us tear up the dance floor on my big day!


Ella Watkins

Bridesmaid

Childhood Best Friend Ella Watkins is the walking definition of sunshine. This girl may have tiny hands but her sunny disposition makes up for it tenfold. Ella and I have been friends since our days on the St. Paul's Pre-school playground. We later found our mutual love for all things musical theatre when we both joined the Academy of Children's Theatre. There is no bond like one of two drama nerds screaming Legally Blond the Musical at the top of their lungs. We both get tickled at the thought that we both consider ourselves to be the funniest people in the room. Should you be looking to meet Ella on my wedding day, she will be on stage giving a live performance of Mamma Mia.

Erika Daly

Bridesmaid

College Best Friend Erika and I first met at TCU theatre auditions. She was a serious actress trying to concentrate while I was talking her ear off about how I had been placed in the WRONG audition group. To my embarrassment, I saw her a few weeks later at the University of Oklahoma auditions. We both accepted our offer to the OU Drama Department and became quick friends despite our passed encounters. We spent our final years at OU as room mates, best friends and sissies. Our dinner dates to Coriander Cafe (RIP) and really anytime I was with Erika are still some of my most coveted memories from my time in college. Like the big sis that she is, she has nurtured me from both the East and West coast over the years. My wedding day would not be complete without my Pisces sister.


Juliana Pettiette

Bridesmaid

Childhood Best Friend There really is no better pair then two tiny friends who share last names like Little and Pettiette. Juliana and I met when we were placed side by side on the front row of our math class in the 6th grade. We both sucked at math and talked too much so obviously we got in trouble often. We both joined the cheer squad but neither one of our mothers would allow us to be flyers so we opted in for the sign girl position. If sign girl wasn't embarrassing enough, there is rumored footage of us as bottle dancers in a performance of The Fiddler on The Roof... I am so grateful for my friendship with Juliana because she came into my life at such a difficult age while I was processing the grief of losing my sister. Even years later, she is still my ride or die.

Molly Bowman

Bridesmaid

Childhood Best Friend Molly Bowman and I met in Mrs. Hitchcock's 1st grade class. We became close through activities like Girl Scouts and softball. Molly was always that one person who I felt truly understood me. It was if we had our own language. She was my perfect flavor of weird. When my sister was sick, the Bowman's had me over one evening to take my mind off things. We had so much fun playing cops and robbers. Later that evening, her family and I prayed for my sister's health. The next day, my parents came to Molly's to tell me about my sister being taken off life support... Molly gave me the biggest hug. I will always cherish that night before with her and her family. Molly will always be such a special person to me and boy am I lucky to have her as a friend.


Charlie Hare

Bridesmaid

Dallas Best Friend The artist formally known as Chelsea, was my first friend here in Dallas. We found ourselves working the leasing desk at a luxury apartment community. If you have ever worked in property management, you know that this bond is unbreakable due to reasons I am legally not allow to disclose. Since becoming friends, she has proven herself to be a selfless and sacrificing friend. She has dropped everything to bring me anything from medicine for when I'm sick to a spoon when I had no silverware. She was the friend I needed at such a transitional period in my life and I couldn't ask for a better Mushu to my Stitch.

Alyssa Van Hooser

Bridesmaid

College Best Friend Alyssa Van Hooser is your ultimate Boss Babe. We met my junior year of college at a party for the drama department. She came up to me and started raving about how she wanted to be my friend. Little did she know I wanted to be her friend just as badly. We became much closer once we graduated and moved to Dallas. I always respected her for choosing the path not easily taken. Dallas is a hard market to be in for actors. This girl hustled her way to the top of Dallas' most prestigious agencies and now represents me. I could not be more proud of her. Lucky for me, she joins me for countless lunch dates and nights on the couch with a bottle of wine. Alyssa was the first person I told about Patrick & if that doesn't say how special she is to me then I don't know what does.


Christine Mirzayan

Bridesmaid

College Best Friend My sweet Christine came into my life my junior year of college. She was a freshman from California with a thirst for growth. I knew when I met her that there was something special about her. I took her under my wing and deemed her my little. We have spent countless hours talking about life. How it can be so hard but so beautiful and gratifying. I always leave our talks feeling so refreshed and enlightened. I know that I am the older one, but Christine has served as such a role model for me through the years. She has taught me about drive and forgiveness and most importantly being gentle with yourself. If I could nominate anyone for the all around incredible woman award, it would be Christine Mirzayan.

Marc Henning

Best Man

Brother of the Groom Hi I’m Marc. Garrett and Munnell are going to tell you that they like to party, but they are wrong. I am the one who likes to party. Also pats friends take beer pong way to serious. That is all, thank you and God Bless America.


Michael Rebstock

Groomsman

Cousin of the Groom Let’s stay for one more beer.

Michael Munnell

Groomsman

Childhood Friend My name is Michael Munnell and I like to party.


Garrett Barnard

Groomsman

Brother-in-law of the Groom My name is Garrett Barnard and I also like to party.

Colton Key

Groomsman

Fraternity Brother Pat and I played little league baseball together, Lived together for 2 years at OU, Hunted Together in Texas, Oklahoma, and New Mexico... One thing I’ll say about Pat, It’s always nice to be friends with someone when you are just a little bit better at everything than they are.


David Anderson

Groomsman

Fraternity Brother Pat & I bonded over many things. It all started with our passion for academics at Strake where we learned how to navigate college. This helped us in our combined 10 yrs at OU, 4 for me. Ive admired Pats drive. He loves to wake up early to attack the day. Pat hates sleeping in & relaxation in general. This has proved valuable in his career. He has won multiple busiest construction worker awards. You wont believe how many emails he gets! You would never know bc in humble Pat fashion he never brings it up. Lastly, we've bonded over hrs in the great outdoors. I remember sitting in the treestand hunting for prey talking about how much we hated tobacco, how we would never get tattoos & planning our dream wedding. Well Pat, its all come true & I cant wait to play a role in it!

Tyler Crowe

Groomsman

Fraternity Brother Patrick has the best knack for timing of anyone I know. Timing in funny punchlines, timing in stock market transactions (Snapchat) and the time it takes him to graduate college. I was lucky enough to live with Pat during his last year in school and to say that he tried his best would be a stretch. He tried but, maybe not his best. During our time as friends, he has always called me on my birthday or a long drive home for him and for that, I am extremely grateful. Also, Daniel Penney spelled ‘wrestling’ wrong.


Tyler Cotner

Groomsman

Fraternity Brother Patrick and I lived together both in the Delt house and at Camden for 3 years. He would tell you I was a messy roommate but I would refute such accusations with the fact that Beaux peed on the floor every time someone walked in the house. I hope your next dog doesn’t do that. It’s gross.

Matt Akins

Groomsman

Fraternity Brother Patrick has always been a great friend and a heavy burden. Whether it was scheduling frat composite pics for him while he clung to the credit, or teaching him basic financials during our summer rush together to help him understand money isn’t unlimited. I’m very happy that Meredith has taken on this challenge.


Ben Liebers

Groomsman

International Shaman International Shaman is all anyone needs to know.

Jason Denny

Usher

Fraternity Brother I'm just here so I won't get fined.


Daniel Penney

Usher

College Friend, Fraternity Brother I beat Pat in wresting our freshman year of high school and then he sucker punched me at a party our first senior year of college. While I only went on to become a super senior; Pat, always the overachiever, went on to become a super super senior. Brains and beauty.

Jacob Wolfe

Usher

Childhood Friend Pat was my first friend. He left me in Louisiana, but different states, Pat's "way too short" shorts, nor the house next door could keep us from remaining close enough for me to be on here. For that, I am thankful.


Kyle Papso

Usher

Childhood Friend I’ve known Pat since I was 9 years old and he was 8 (but looked like he was 5). We were neighbors and basically lived together. We have done a lot of life together and in the past 20+ years, he has grown at least a few inches and lost most of his hair. Pat has always been a selfless and kind guy, someone who sees the best in people, and someone who rolls with the punches. He has been the closest thing to a brother I ever had, and just like a brother who moved away, I have a blast playing with all the toys and deer he left behind.

Beaux Henning

The Goodest Boi

Groom's First Dog, Bride's adopted Son We asked Beaux for a quote but he got so excited he peed everywhere. RIP to the best hound
