She is the absolute best and I am so lucky to have such an amazing sister to be a part of this day,

I have known this girl for many years and we have grown a lot together. We have watched each other struggle and have known that no matter what happens we will always be there for one another. This life has been made so much better by true friends like her.
Bridesmaid
I met this woman at my previous job and it was an instant friendship! She is so fun and is just one of the best people to talk to, she heard more about my plight as I waited for my perfect proposal probably more than anyone else and is the most supportive person. I am so happy she said yes to being by my side during the happiest time of my life.
Best Man
This man was friends with Nathan long before we met and when I was going to meet him I was warned I would either love him or hate him. Needless to say I love him! He is a wonderful friend to Nathan and has been nothing but supportive of our relationship. I am so happy he will be standing next to Nathan as we say our I do's!
Groomsman
This man has been a friend to both Nathan and I throughout our entire relationship. He was a brother to me before I met my Nathan and as soon as he met him he was thrilled to accept him into our friendship tree. He has been a guide to the both of us as he is very wise and has helped us see each others side of things as we both trust and love him so much. We couldn't do this without our brother there!
Groomswoman
I love this girl so much and am so happy she said yes when Nathan asked her to stand by him on this day. She was his first partner when he became a paramedic and I have no doubt they have been through it all together. I was so happy to attend her wedding recently and am absolutely thrilled she will be a part of seeing Nathan and I have our happy ever after as well!
Groomsman
Chad is Nathan's current partner at the ambulance service and is a wild one for sure. I love his sense of humor and am so happy he is there to support Nathan every day as I know their job is beyond difficult. He was gracious enough to say yes when Nathan asked him to be a part of this day and I have no doubt he will make this experience beyond fun!
Groomsman
This man means so much to me and I am beyond excited to have him in our wedding! He has been so important in helping me grow and learn through so many difficult times. He has taught me patience and love when I didn't think it was possible for me. Tommy is like the brother I never had and always wanted and he and his family are so important to Nathan and I both. Thank God for this man!
Step mother of the bride
This woman has grown to be a part of my family and I have come to appreciate her presence within it. She is one of the smartest and most hardworking women I know and has set a great example of how to get where you want in life through her hard work and tenacity. I am thrilled she will be attending this mile stone with us today as she has so many other times since becoming a part of our family.
Father of the Bride
I am so blessed to have this man as my father! He has always been there for my sister and I. We may not have always made it so easy for him but he has always loved us to the very best of his ability. I cannot wait to walk down the isle next to the man who has taught me how to get through every challenge in life with integrity and love. I have the best dad and love him so very much!
Mother of the Bride
My mom will be coming all the way from Texas to make sure she sees one of the most important events in my life! She has made a commitment to her family that lives there and is not able to be with us as much as we would all like, however she does not let that stop her from always letting us know how much she loves us all. We are thrilled she will be coming to spend this amazing time with us.
Officiant
This man was an amazing counselor at a program that both Nathan and myself worked for during our second year together. He knows so much about both of us and has such an amazing spirituality about him that we could not think of anyone better to officiate our union. We have so much love and respect for this man and I am ecstatic he said yes when we asked him do this!
Father of the Groom
I love this man! Nathan's father has been so warm and welcoming ever since my first time meeting them. He is by far one of the nicest people I have ever known. I feel so blessed that he has been so supportive of Nathan and I as Nathan is very close with his parents and I knew I wouldn't get too far with him if his parents didn't approve! Jamie is a huge support for the both of us and I will never be able to express the appreciation that I have for him.
Mother of the Groom
I call this woman mama Heffron because she is the total embodiment of everything you think of when you think "mama". I never want for food or good advice when I am around her! She has been the epitome of everything I could ask for in a mother in law and I feel so very blessed to be able to say that. This woman has already been a huge help throughout the wedding planning process along with life in general and I am beyond grateful to know that she will be a permanent part of my life. I love this woman!
Bride
Well, this is me! I consider myself one of the luckiest people in the world due to group of people you have already read about. I am a social worker and have worked in mental health since I graduated from college in 2011. I, like most people have been through a lot in my life but my higher power has gotten me through it all along with the help of my closest family and the friends I have found along the way. As far as my relationship with Nathan goes, it was something I truly feel my higher power sent to me to show me true love does exist. I was in a place in my life when we met that I was comfortable in my own skin and was really not looking for a man. Nathan changed my whole outlook showed me that not only do good men still exist, but that he is the best of them all!
Groom
Nathan is my husband to be and the sweetest, smartest man I have ever met! Nathan was finishing up school when we met and I watched him work so hard to get where he wanted to be. It was truly impressive to watch him do what it took to get his paramedic license and he faced every challenge head on with little to no complaining. Nathan is very dedicated to his work as well as to showing me all the love i require. I am not always so easy to handle due to my past but he has never made me feel judged or that I am not worth working through the difficult times. I thank my higher power on a daily basis for this man as I never thought I would have what he and I have together. I said yes the second he got down on one knee and cannot wait to be married to him, I love this man with all my heart!
