Wedding Party
Alex Shockley
Matron of Honor
Alex, my matron of honor, is my older sister—a fiery, brilliant force who has both challenged and uplifted me throughout our lives. A gifted cosmetologist and a fierce protector, she’s always brought beauty, honesty, and strength into every chapter of our story.
Zoe
Matron of Honor
Growing up, I always thought Zoe was the coolest person I knew. I stole her music taste first, then later her style, and honestly, I’m still catching up. She’s built an incredible life in the Pacific Northwest, traveled the country on a bus with her fiancé Sam their dog Clifford. Zoe has always been sweet, chill, and just effortlessly herself. The kind of sister who gave me my first beer and set the standard for what it means to live freely. I couldn’t be more proud to have her standing by my side today.
Kiley Hickman
Maid of Honor
Kiley, my maid of honor and best friend, is one of the smartest, kindest people I know—and somehow also the funniest. She’s the one I call for everything, from big life decisions to ridiculous group chats. I can always count on her, and I’m so lucky to have her by my side.
Danielle
Maid of Honor
Danielle and I have been best friends for over ten years, ever since middle school. She’s been my guiding compass, always reminding me to stay on track and be responsible when life gets overwhelming. Through every high and low, we’ve stood by each other, choosing our friendship time and again. Danielle is the kind of friend who makes you laugh in the hard moments, celebrates the good ones, and makes sure you never feel alone in between. I can’t imagine this day without her by my side.
Julia Cox
Bridesmaid
Julia is one of the most generous and emotionally intuitive people I know, with a heart that feels deeply and gives freely. She’s pursuing a career in social work, which fits her perfectly—she was born to help and heal. Whether she’s hiking a trail or holding space for a friend, she brings calm, compassion, and connection wherever she goes.
Gwen
Bridesmaid
Gwen is truly the funniest person I know. We share a kind of humor that might worry anyone listening in because once we start riffing off each other, we can go for hours. Beyond her quick wit, Gwen is one of the kindest and most caring people, with a way of making everyone around her feel seen and loved. She brings light, laughter, and so much heart to every room she walks into, and I feel so lucky to have her standing with me.
Cat Fernandez
Bridesmaid
Cat is the kind of friend who keeps life exciting—always up for anything and full of surprises in the best way. She’s effortlessly funny and has a gift for turning any moment into an adventure. Just when I think I’ve seen it all, she does something that reminds me how lucky I am to know her.
Ainsley
Bridesmaid
Ainsley is my little sister, and in so many ways she reminds me of myself when I was younger. She has the biggest heart, full of empathy and kindness, and such a bright future ahead no matter what path she chooses. Ainsley has a gift for making people smile, for really listening, and for bringing her intelligence and warmth into every moment. I couldn’t be prouder of the person she is and the woman she’s becoming, and I’m so grateful to have her by my side today.
Tommie Jones
Officiant
Our officiant, Tommie Jones, is more than just a grandfather; he’s a world traveler, a storyteller, and someone who always knows how to guide you in the right direction. With his humor, wisdom, and heart, he encourages everyone around him to follow their own path and trust their hearts. From day one, Tommie has made both Haylie and Rachel feel deeply loved, and it’s fitting that he’s the one leading us into this next chapter.
