Alicia & Parker
Wedding Party
Krista Waugaman
Maid of Honor
Krista is one of my cousins, but she's more like a sister to me. She's been a role model in my life for a long as I can remember. Her mom would babysit me a lot, so I have a ton of core memories playing with her at her parents house. Now I have so many more memories of sleepovers at her house where I can't stop laughing, and we would stay up ridiculously late because we didn't want the fun to end. Krista is so kind, she always puts others first, and she always puts a smile on everyone's face around her. I want to be like her when I grow up.
Nicole Waugaman
Maid of Honor
Nicole is also one of my cousins, and she's also like a sister to me. A lot of the memories that I have with Krista, I share with Nicole too. However, some of my favorite memories with Nicole are writing each other letters and leaving them in each other's lockers in the halls of Notre Dame Academy. Typically the main focus of these letters were our most recent thoughts on One Direction. I love that Nicole is not afraid to be herself while also being so considerate of those around her. She always brings positive energy to our adventures, and I know she will always have my back.
Ali Maier
Bridesmaid
Ali is one of my best friends. She came into my life when I was a much shyer person and was super nervous about making friends in high school. I remember being so worried about the first time that we hung out together outside of school, but now I feel like part of her family, and her, mine. In college, the staff at my dorm thought she lived in the building because she would sleepover so much just so we could spend more time hanging out. Ali is the definition of a good friend. She's always there for me if I need to talk through something serious or discuss the latest on Taylor Swift. I can just tell that Ali is going to be in my life forever.
Annalise Tobergte
Bridesmaid
Annalise is one of my high school best friends. She is one of the most kind, most cheerful, most positive, and most selfless people I know. But don't let her fool you, she has a sassy side too. I have so many fun memories with Annalise from high school to college to that one soccer team when we were just kids. We've had so many adventures together, and I cherish every single one of them, especially our shenanigans before, during, and after Harry Styles concerts. I feel so lucky to have Annalise in my life.
Riley Clouse
Bridesmaid
Riley has been one of my best friends since high school, but I feel like we've grown even closer in our adult lives. She is extremely non-judgmental, very mature, and a fiercely loyal friend. When I think of Riley, I think of our heart to hearts (especially in bathrooms), and I know I can trust her with anything. I admire her ability to stand up for herself and her loved ones, and it inspires me to do the same. I hope I can be as good of friend to Riley as she is to me.
Callie Delaney
Bridesmaid
I met Callie in Lake Jackson, TX, and she's one of those people that I feel like I was supposed to meet in life. We became close friends extremely fast and bonded over shared life experiences. Before I knew it, she was crashing on my couch after every Bachelor night and hanging out during a literal hurricane making hurricane drinks. Her energy is infectious, I can't stop giggling whenever I'm around her, and I love every second of our friendship. Above all, I know I can tell her anything, and she'll support me and make me feel better. I'm so lucky to have Callie as my friend.
