Matron of Honor
My bestie girl, my soul sister. We met in 9th grade when she moved to Jessieville. At first, we both thought the other was snobby, stuck-up, and rude. It took the magic of Mrs. Relda Steelman in Med Pro I to get us together, to find out we are the same person made over. Our only differences include height, and her preference of Diet Coke vs. my Dr. Pepper. Never have I met somebody who has the same exact thoughts as me, and can feel my anger, sadness, and joy no matter how many miles are between us. Together, we are a force to be reckoned with, and I think the reason God never puts us in the same city. I wouldn't have anyone else by my side as my Matron of Honor.
Maid of Honor
My Sopapilla! It only took two years into nursing school and our Mental Health clinical rotation to get the two of us together. How could I not be besties with a girl who wears a HOT DOG SUIT every year on her birthday??? Sofiya brings such a spunk and light into my life that no one else could create. "Just Sofiya Things" are REAL, and if you know, you know. She is one of a kind, one of those friends that would drive 10 hours round trip to help you find the wedding dress of your dreams. Always there to listen, and offer advice, even if she has no sort of actual experience over said topic. She is one of my most favorite people, of course I couldn't have my day without her!
Bridesmaid
The silliest of them all, my Round 1 girl. We have been best friends since the 6th grade. We went through our ugly, cringey, emo, middle school times together and still made it out to tell the tale. She was there for my first kiss, and she will be by my side when I have my first kiss as a married woman. We have had the highest of highs and lowest of lows all right by each other's side. She is one of those friends who makes me laugh almost the minute I see her. A whole ray of sunshine and a little Patrick the Star all wrapped into one of my perfect best friends. She's also the one who slays my hair all the time, so how awesome is that??? The way her being lights up the world is undeniable. I can't wait to watch her laugh down the aisle!
Bridesmaid
This Angel Pie. Our first time meeting was my junior year of high school, and her senior year. We were in this program called "Leadership Hot Springs" together. As fate would have it, 2 years later, we would end up in the same Nursing class at UCA. We were slower to become friends (I thought she was 2 cool 4 me). She was so smart and such a good nurse already and just intimidating. The same clinical rotation that brought me and Sofiya together also brought Heather into the trio. We carpooled to our Mental Health clinical together all semester, and the rest is history. Heather is one of the most kind, genuine, and understanding of everyone I have ever met. She is such a light and joy in this world. How could I get married without her?!
Bridesmaid
My sweet Kaitlin. Like Sof And Heather, our friendship flourished in Nursing School. We had been unknowingly connected since Freshman Year, unbeknownst to us. She was the hero in a story of a "stolen" fish, and rescued said fish from Morgan and her roomates care, under the impression that Morgan had been keeping the fish hostage. How funny is that? Kaitlin is the definition of kindhearted. She loves with every bit of her soul so much that it's almost visible. She will listen, and have the empathy of the world, while taking on your problems as her own. Truly one a kind, and a friend that you ALWAYS want in your corner. She was one of the first people in nursing who not only didn't make me feel stupid, but inspired me everyday. Of course I needed her by my side on my big day!
Junior Bridesmaid
My youngest bridesmaid, Zoë is my Godmother’s oldest child. I remember holding her as a sweet baby and now she will be 17 standing by my side at the wedding. I’ve always loved her like she was my own little sister, giving her advice, keeping her secrets, trying to guide her in this life. Watching her grow up into a beautiful young woman has been one of my greatest treasures. I’m so excited that she will be apart of my big day!
Man of Honor
This one right here..... this man drives me CRAZY, makes me laugh till I cry, and supports our little family so much. Couldn’t be more thankful to call someone so hardworking and honorable my man of honor.
Bridesmaid
This girl is a powerhouse, and pretty much the only good thing that came from me joining a sorority. I’m convinced she could literally handle anything thrown at her, and I can’t imagine going through this day without her.
Bridesman
HUNCLE. So fun, and full of attitude. Actual response to me asking him to be in the wedding was “Okay I guess”. There is literally never a forgetful moment when Hudson’s around. Couldn’t be more thankful to have him standing next to us in February.
Bridesmaid
A HANDFUL. I’ve known Zoie since 7th grade, and we know each other like the back of our hands. We’re definitely trained in driving the other one CRAZY, but that’s what friends are for, right? I couldn’t imagine my wedding without her
Bridesmaid
Sister from the same mister. We haven’t been close our whole lives, but I am so thankful for the relationship we have today. And even more thankful she’s flying all the way from Illinois to stand next to me on our big day.
Bridesman
MY BOY. My longest friend. My brother. This dude right here knows me inside out. I literally can’t lie to him. We’ve been through it all together, and our bond runs deep. There’s no way I could imagine our big day without him by my side
