Floyd Brantley

Best Man

Quentin and Floyd have been friends for years, since junior high. Throughout high school, Quentin and Floyd enjoyed going to high school football games, playing airsoft, and spending weekends at each other's houses playing video games and hanging out. When it came time for college, they became roommates and lived together for four years, forging countless memories along the way through spring breaks, golf, and Theta Chi. Following graduation, both made their way back to Fishers where they continue to enjoy many of the same things they've been doing together for years.

Joe Kieffer

Best Man

Quentin met Joe his freshman year at Purdue when they were in the same pledge class for their fraternity, Theta Chi. One year older than Quentin, Joe served as a de facto guide for being a Boilermaker, having Q over for football games and showing him the undergraduate ways. When they moved into the fraternity house, Joe and Quentin's friendship took off following a debaucherous round of golf that created an endless thread of inside jokes. The following year, Joe, Floyd, and Quentin shared an apartment on Purdue's campus, a year that each of them regard as one of the best of college. Upon graduation Joe got a job in Fishers where the friendship has continued, strong as ever, with the addition of dogs and significant others.

Connor Swofford

Groomsman

Connor and Quentin became friends in high school, although the exact origin of their friendship is relatively unknown...something about football games or history class we think. Regardless of how the friendship started, they've been close for years. Connor is always willing to join Quentin on whatever off-the-wall adventure he is up to, whether it is outdoor rock climbing, mountain biking, or disc golfing. They also make an effort to hunt behind Quentin's bird dog, Gunner, at least once a year--a bit of a tip of the cap to a youth hunt they did together in high school, where they promptly scorched their quarry on the grill to the point of near inedibility. Although Connor's career has taken him across the country and back, they share a unique friendship in that, every time they are together, it is as if no time has passed.

Chris Hsieh

Groomsman

Chris and Quentin became friends in college after joining the same fraternity. A transfer from Arizona, Chris came into the fold of college friends a semester later than the others, but he fit right in immediately. Chris always lived within a door or two of Quentin throughout their college career, making it easy to do homework together, play video games, and split a MadMush cheesy bread. Chris and Quentin have traveled throughout the US together extensively for spring breaks and fantasy football drafts. With both now living in Fishers, they always manage to find time to hang out and have some laughs.

Dylan Simpson

Groomsman

Quentin met Dylan his freshman year at Purdue when they both joined the same fraternity. They share all of the crazy memories of pledgeship and fondly look back on those times together. Dylan and Quentin are also competitors in their college fantasy football league which has been running strong for over five years. They have been on numerous vacations together ranging from Colorado to Cincinnati. Regardless of where they find themselves, they are always able to have a good time. Dylan is always willing to lend a helping hand and shares Quentin's adventerous spirit, joining him on hikes and the like when the find themselves in the mountains.

Dave Wheatley

Groomsman

Simply put, Dave is one of Quentin's oldest friends. They met back in elementary school when they were on the same football team and lived only a few houses down from one another. When Dave lived in Indiana, you could constantly find Quentin at his house where they would shoot bb guns, compound bows, and go fishing in the golf course ponds. When Dave moved to Maryland, that did not put a stop to the frienship--each summer, Quentin would fly out and visit Dave where they'd do many of the same things they grew up doing: creek stomping, fishing, and making their own adventures in the woods. Quentin and Dave have been by each others' sides through the highs and lows of life, creating a truly special bond. Despite the geographical distance between them today, they stay in close touch with one another, visiting whenever possible, where they pick things up right where they left them.
