Wedding Party
Kylie
Maid of Honor
Kylie has been my closest friend since we were just preschoolers. As children, we grew up together, and even as adults, our friendship has only strengthened over the years. As my oldest friend, Kylie holds a special place in my life, and I couldn't imagine getting married without her by my side on this special day. We've been dreaming about this day for such a long time, and now that it’s finally happening!
Thomas
Best Man
Thomas was Jakob's first friend when he moved to North Carolina. They went to high school together and have been best friends ever since! We are so excited to have Thomas be a part of our special day.
Maci
Matron of Honor
Maci has been one of my closest friends for as long as I can remember. Interestingly, our families became friends many years ago, thanks to the fact that Maci's mom was my kindergarten teacher and their family lived in our neighborhood. We share many wonderful memories together - from childhood shenanigans to significant life events. I can't wait for Maci to be a part of this moment with me.

Groomsman
Jakob and Hayden participated in track together and became friends in high school and have been friends ever since! We are so excited to have Hayden as part of our special day!
Zoe
Bridesmaid
Zoe and I first met during our freshman year of college at WCU, and it didn't take long for us to become an inseparable dynamic duo. We ended up becoming best friends and roommates for the remaining three years of college! Without a doubt, Zoe was one of the most significant parts of my college experience, and I couldn't have imagined it without her. I'm so excited for her to be a part of me and Jakob's special day.

Haileigh
Bridesmaid
When I first started dating Jakob, I was introduced to his amazing sister, Haleigh. Over time, our friendship has deepened, and now she's one of my best friends. I can't express how excited I am to officially turn from friends into sisters. I can't wait to share even more memorable experiences with her as family!
