Bride
She's the smartest, funniest, strongest, and most beautiful woman I have ever met in my Entire life. She has been my best friend since day one, and there's no one else I dream of, no one I've ever seen a promising future with, and no one that deserves a place by my side for the rest of my life but her. She has never failed to bring a smile to my face, and she brightens each of my days more than the sun ever could. I knew from the first time we kissed that I'd never find anything like what we shared, and I am so beyond blessed to have her as my fiance, my soon-to-be bride, and my future wife.
Groom
Nick is my knight in shining armor! He is the sweetest, most caring and most thoughtful person I have ever met. He is one of the strongest people I know, and continually helps me fight my dragons. I can't imagine my life without him. He is my best friend, I have always been able to open up and be myself around him. He has always accepted me and loved me no matter what. I couldn't ask for anyone better to stand by my side and fight along side me. He is so incredible and has become my forever and always! I can't wait for him to be my husband!
Maid of Honor
Cailin is my sister-in-law and is a very special person to me. She has always been such a big inspiration to me and I couldn't be more happy that my brother decided to make her a part of our family. She has blessed not only the family, but me as well and is the perfect wife and mother to my brother and nephews!
Groomsman
He is the greatest uncle anyone could ask for, and has always been there when I needed him. Aunt Beanie wasn't the only one that was blessed when she said yes.
Bridesmaid
Randa is another one of my sister-in-laws and has been a part of my life for many years. She has always shown me what it is to be a strong woman and I have looked up to her for years! I couldn't be more blessed to call her my sister!
Groomsman
I haven't known Jeremy all that long, but we've seemed to have had a brotherly connection just from the few times we have spent together and talked. He's the epitome of what I imagine an older brother to be, and I am very grateful to have him standing with me.
Bridesmaid
Kathy is the other wonderful sister-in-law and she has been a wonderful addition to the family. She really shows me continually what it means to take care of family. She cherishes family time and being there for her family. I am very proud to call her my sister!
Father of the Groom
If you couldn't tell from the name, yes my father. Even though he and momma were split, he decided to play a big part in my life, and I am very grateful to have had a father in my life. He's not perfect, but he's mine, and I love him.
Bridesmaid
Bethany is one of my oldest friends. We have pictures back from when we had pacifiers in our mouth and pom pom pigtails. She has made me laugh so many times over the years, and even 22 years later, she is one of my best friends. I am so beyond blessed to call her my friend!
Page Boy
Tristan is one of the many nephews in the Russell family! He is such a sweet young man and is growing into a gentleman! We can't wait to see him grow up into the man God has called him to be!
Candle Lighter
We didn't really ever seem to get along as kids, but I guess that's what you can expect from a brother and sister. These days however, I have never felt so close to her; even with the distance. We have been through a lot, and have had a lot of pain in the past... I am so very glad we have moved on from those dark days and are now there for one another like we are. She does her best to understand and talk with me through whatever I need help with, and I can only hope that she feels I do the same. She's one of the two best sisters in the world, and much more of one than I could ever ask for.
Candle Lighter
As far as sisters go, I have to say that she is more like a younger, female version of me. Even down to looks!! I blame that on the family nose mostly haha!! We also have seen our share of hard times, but also have fantastic stories and adventures together. We didn't (and still don't) always get along either, but we've pretty much always been close. I know that I can always go her with anything, and that I can always count on her to have my back. I know she probably would've rather had a big sister growing up, but I hope that I was a pretty good big brother... the brother that she needed.
Flower Girl
Raylynn is such a strong and sweet little girl, she is one of the many nieces and is such a sweetheart! She brings such joy and laughter to everyone she comes in contact with!

Ring Bearer

Guestbook Signer
Allison is one of my precious nieces and one of Nick's soon to be nieces. She has such a sweet spirit and although I don't see her nearly as often as I wish to, she always holds a special place in my heart!
