Wedding Party
Taylor Plata
Matron of Honor
Friend of the Bride She’s not just a friend, she’s the sister life gave me, the one who has been woven into every season of my life. We’ve walked through everything together: the school days that felt endless, the victories we celebrated, and the countless memories that still make us laugh until we cry. She is loyal, kind, steady, and truly the definition of ride-or-die. Her heart is pure gold, and her presence has been one of the greatest gifts of my life. I couldn’t imagine this day, or any chapter, without her love, support, and the bond we’ve built over all these years.
Vincent Bartsch
Best Man
Brother of the Groom He’s the groom’s little brother, but more importantly, he’s his very best friend. They grew up side by side, early mornings at stock shows, hauling cattle, winning, losing, and making memories they still laugh about today. Now they get to go back to those same stock shows together, this time as adults who appreciate the journey even more. These two know they can depend on each other through absolutely anything. Their bond is as real as it gets, and the groom couldn’t imagine this day without him standing right beside him.
Alec Combs
Groomsman
Cousin of the Bride He’s not just my cousin, he’s one of my very best friends and one of the most steady, loving presences in my life. We grew up doing everything together, from childhood adventures to memories we still laugh about today. He’s kind, funny, and the kind of person who always shows up for the people he loves. We both adore him, and it means the world to have him standing beside us on this special day.
Kimberly Bartsch
Bridesmaid
Sister In Law She may have started as the groom’s sister-in-law, but she quickly became one of my closest friends. She’s loving, supportive, thoughtful, and always the first one to show up when you need her. She’s the kind of person who brings warmth into every room and says “yes” to any adventure. We adore her, we’re thankful for her, and we’re so excited to have her by our side on this special day.
Parker Combs
Groomsman
Brother of Bride He’s my little brother, but he holds one of the biggest pieces of my heart. He’s been with me through every chapter of life, cheering me on, teasing me just enough to keep me humble. He’s been my friend, my comic relief, and one of my greatest supporters without even realizing it. I am endlessly grateful that he’s standing with us on our special day, and even more grateful for the bond we’ve built that will last a lifetime.
Hailee Guzman
Bridesmaid
Friend of the Bride What started as my cousin bringing his girlfriend around has turned into gaining a friend I cherish. She’s warm, thoughtful, caring, and always the first to ask how she can help. She loves our little boy like her own and has become a true part of our family. I absolutely adore her sweet, kind soul and feel so blessed to have her as a bridesmaid.
Brad Bartsch
Groomsman
Brother of Groom He’s the groom’s older brother and someone who has been by his side since day one. They grew up together, learned from each other, and were always there through every season of life. Their bond is strong, steady, and built on years of shared memories. The groom is honored to have him standing with him.
Colleen Bartsch
Bridesmaid
Sister of the Groom She’s the groom’s sister, but she’s also one of the funniest, coolest, most easygoing people you’ll ever meet. She’s always down for an adventure, always brings the best energy, and she loves our little boy to absolute pieces. And he adores his aunt just as much. We are so grateful to have her in our lives and so excited she’s standing with us on our special day.
Connor Bartsch
Groomsman
Nephew of the Bride & Groom We absolutely love and adore this kid, always have, always will. He’s sarcastic, funny, brutally honest, and proudly lives life without caring what anyone else thinks (and we love that about him). He’s an amazing welder and an even better showman, and he’s truly one of the coolest humans we know. We’re so proud of him, and we’ll always be here cheering him on every step of the way.
Jayda Justice
Bridesmaid
Cousin of the Groom Jayda is John’s cousin and someone who means so much to both of us. She brings so much joy, laughter, and light everywhere she goes, and we’re so lucky to have her in our corner. She’s an incredible J.J. to our son and always someone you can count on. Whether it’s for support, a good laugh, or just making any moment more fun. Having Jayda in our lives means the world to us, and we’re so grateful she’s part of our celebration.
Connelly Jones
Flower Girl
The sweetest little helper making her way down the aisle, the precious daughter of one of my best friends. Watching her be part of such a meaningful moment in our lives makes it all the more special. We’re so incredibly lucky to have her there, sprinkling a little extra love, joy, and magic on our big day.
Tatum Vasquez
Flower Girl
She’s family and just one month younger than our son, making them the cutest little duo. She’s sweet, playful, and full of personality, and we absolutely adore her. We can’t wait to see her bringing all the charm and cuteness down the aisle.
Stetson Bartsch
Ring Bearer
Our sweet boy and the very best part of us. He brings so much joy, love, and light into our lives, and he is truly perfect in every way. Having him walk down the aisle is one of the most special parts of our day, and we couldn’t feel more blessed to call him our son.
