Wedding Party
Brynne Wyatt
Maid of Honor
Brynne is Rachel's younger sister and while they maybe didn't always get along great as two preteen girls - they are now best friends and love spending time together whenever Brynne is not sailing the high seas as a Cruise Director. Brynne is the most outgoing and bubbly person Rachel knows, something she greatly admires about her little sis, so you won't miss her out on the dance floor!
Erin Vance
Matron of Honor
Erin and Rachel have been best friends since 5th grade. Their dads got them started playing golf together in preparation for their high school team and they still love to play together to this day. Erin is the type of friend to give that "tough love" when needed and I wouldn't be the woman I am today without her. Rachel stood next to Erin as her MOH and she's thrilled to have Erin as hers.
Ashlan Andrews
Bridesmaid
Ashlan and Rachel met at Blythewood Middle School and ran around in the same friend circles through high school and college.

Amanda Corney
Bridesmaid
Amanda and Rachel met in 2018 through their Bible Study and became fast friends - like you would've thought they've known each other their whole lives. One of Rachel's greatest joys is getting to be Aunt Rachie to Amanda's two kids and watch them grow up, but also watching one of her best friends be a kickass mom. Her daughter, Harper, is Rachel and Kyle's Flower Girl.
Madison McCarthy
Bridesmaid
Rachel met Madison through Ashlan their freshman year of college. Ashlan and Madison were friends at Presbyterian College and Rachel, Sarah, and Erin came to visit that fall. They stayed friends since that time but drew much closer when Madison lived in Charleston post-grad with Ashlan and Madison joined the Ashlan and Rachel's Bible Study. Madison is one of the funniest people Rachel knows and can't wait for all the laughs to come!
Sarah Taylor
Bridesmaid
Sarah is Rachel's longest friendship as Sarah was her first friend when she moved to Blythewood in 3rd grade. They sat together on Bus 83 on the way home and have been friends ever since. No matter what college they were at or separate city they lived in, their friendship always picks up right where it left off and their friendship is so special to Rachel.
Savannah Wawner
Bridesmaid
Savannah and Rachel met in 2019 through her husband and Kyle's friendship and the two quickly forged a strong friendship of their own when Savannah joined Bible Study and the Wawners moved in 1.5 miles away.

Now adding this big day to the list!
