Wedding Party
Elizabeth Ostwalt
Maid of Honor
Elizabeth has been my best friend since 8th grade. She’s practically like family. Most people call her Sherrod which is her middle name. She is absolutely one of the kindest and most fun people I know. Elizabeth just graduated from Auburn and is living in Chattanooga, TN where she serves as an intern for YoungLife College. Some of my best memories are with this one. Together we have cheered on the sidelines, traveled to South Africa, and navigated our first year of college at Samford. Some say we're attached at the hip, and it's true. We're basically the same person.
Drew Williamson
Best Man
Drew is my brother and someone that I can always rely on. He has been a constant figure in my life throughout all of the good times and bad times. Although we may give each other a hard time at times, I know that he will always be there when I truly need him the most. Drew is currently finishing school at Georgia State where he will graduate with a degree in finance. He loves the game of golf, a Ben & Jerry's pint, and a nice cold Bud Light Lime.
Lauren Smith
Matron of Honor
Lauren is my cousin, but we treat each other like the sister we both never had. We laugh a lot together, and I have always looked up to her. We talk on the phone nearly once a week and wish we could see each other more often. She lives in California with her husband Keith and sweet baby boy Cohen. Lauren is working on developing her own clothing company. She is a girl boss, and I'm so proud of her! Next to her family, she has a great love for llamas and coffee.
Dale Stones
Groomsman
Dale has quickly become one of my best friends over the past five years. We met in 2016 when he was taking a foreign exchange year from Durham, England to study at Berry College. During the 2017 season at Berry, we had the chance to compete and play the lovely game of soccer together where we instantly connected. Our relationship has nothing but strengthened over time, and now I truly see him as a second brother. He is currently working for Nike in England and working hard to get his Visa to come to the states. He loves the beautiful game of soccer, Nike apparel, and cooking.
Jamie Williamson
Bridesmaid
Jamie is Jake's sister and triplet. I met her before I ever met Jake while we were working at Camp Highland. I knew we would be fast friends when we were co-counselors and both couldn't figure out how to pitch a tent. She is a fashionista and very talented photographer. Jamie is one of the most encouraging and joyful people I know. I value her opinion and can always count on her to give the best advice. I can't believe one of my best friends will soon be my sister!

Walton is Emma's older brother. I have had the pleasure of getting to know him over the past few years throughout my time dating Emma. He is currently working as an assistant field manager with Brasfield & Gorrie General Contractors. Walton loves to hunt, fish, and attend Auburn football games. I look forward to always disagreeing on who the best SEC football team is each year.
Rachel Williamson

Rachel is Jake's younger sister. She's a talented soccer player and way cooler than I was in high school. She has the kindest heart and radiates joy. I can always count on Rachel to be jamming out in the car with Jake whenever I answer a face time call. She is so fun to be around, and I am excited to gain her as a sister!

It's always an absolute blast hanging out with her, especially when we break out our karaoke machine or play Scategories. Carly is finishing up her last year of grad school at Samford to earn her master's degree in counseling. She is one of the funniest people I know, and I love all the memories we share from our time together in college.

Ashleigh is hilarious, constant, and is a big fan of the Atlanta Braves. I swear she goes to every game.

Sydney recently got married also to a Jake, and I can't wait to walk through this next season of life with her!
Alec Jones
Groomsman
Alec started just as my teammate on the Berry Soccer Team, but after four years of college, he has become one of my closest and dearest friends. Because I lived with Alec in college, we got to spend a lot of quality time together. Alec is very personable and will always bring joy into a room. He is currently working as a Loan Officer Assistant at Shelter Home Mortgage in Atlanta, GA. The things that he loves the most are being a dog dad to his pup Fin, a nice bowl of quinoa, and a warm Bojangles biscuit on a Saturday morning.
Phoebe Graham
Bridesmaid
I met Phoebe while I was on summer staff at a YoungLife Camp in Arizona in 2018. We were on the same ropes course team and quickly became close friends. We have kept in touch ever since and make a point to see each other once a year since she lives in San Diego. Long distance has nothing on our friendship! Phoebe is one of the most genuine and down to earth people I know. She is finishing up her last year of grad school at San Diego State University where is she is working towards a master's degree in social work.
Hudson Harris
Groomsman
I met Hudson at Berry College where we quickly bonded over sports, coffee, and more recently skateboarding. I have only known Huddy for a few years, but he has easily become one of the most important people in my life. He is a contagious guy who will get fired up at just about anything, and I envy the way that he chooses to invest in people's lives. He works as a Project Analyst and Crew Lead for Foresite Group & Level-Up Towers. If you don't know what that means, don't feel bad because neither do I. Hudson loves a good cup of coffee, skateboarding on a level surface, and achieving a nice cradle in a lacrosse game.
