Rachel & Mason
Wedding Party
Elizabeth McGuffey
Maid of Honor
Elizabeth is Rachel's younger sister and, although they fought like cats and dogs when they were young, they're thick as thieves now. Rachel couldn't imagine her life without Elizabeth's humor or their inside jokes. They text constantly, sending TikToks and YouTube videos. They both share a love of reptiles and cats. She can't wait to have Elizabeth by her side on her wedding day.
Brandon Parrish
Best Man
Brandon and Mason met Freshman year at Marshall's Alpha Sigma Phi fraternity, the same fraternity that both of their fathers were also members of. Brandon and Mason became fast friends and shared a dorm and apartment their second and third years at Marshall along with other friends. Although Parrish has moved back home and Mason is still in school, they remain close, try to stay in touch, and know they can always rely on one another.
Katie McGuffey
Maid of Honor
Katie is Rachel's older sister and the two of them are also very close. They like to joke that one day the flip switched from hating to loving each other. She and Rachel, along with Elizabeth, text in their group message every day and often go on "sister dates" with each other, which could be anything from watching TV together or going to the pottery place.
Killian Ellis
Groomsman
Killian and Mason met after Mason decided to rush Alpha Sig. Killian was the Vice President at the time, and was, as well as continues to be, someone who Mason looks up to for his leadership, work ethic, and overall attitude. While both of them could tell MANY stories about each other, its easier to say that they always have a good time together. From getting each other through classes to keeping in touch through the real world, it’s never a dull time when they’re together.
Kinslee Dial
Bridesmaid
Kinslee is Mason's youngest sister and she and Rachel bonded almost immediately. They share of love of farm life and are often in cahoots about the next animals to join the Dial Farm, whether it be a goat, guinea, chicken, or cow. Over the 5 years Rachel and Mason have been together, Kinslee has become one of her best friends.
Chris Gouldsberry
Groomsman
Chris and Mason have been through a lot together. They shared a dorm room during their sophomore year of college. As such, they were part of the ever dysfunctional room 105 family. Mason and Chris know far too much about each other but this definitely has not stopped them from having a great time and causing trouble whenever they end up together!
Kaylyn Dial
Bridesmaid
Kaylyn is Mason's other younger sister. Rachel and Kaylyn bonded over their love of cats and baking. Rachel can always count on Kaylyn if she needs something and cannot imagine what her life would be like without her. Rachel is thrilled to have Kaylyn as a future sister.
John Sowards
Groomsman
John and Mason met at Alpha Sig when Mason was a freshman in college. John was the only other Chemistry major in the fraternity, and had a very similar personality as well as a similar sense of humor. John and Mason grew closer throughout their time at Marshall University and found themselves always willing to argue, laugh, and give each other a hard time.
Sydney Kline
Bridesmaid
Sydney is Rachel's "big sister" in Delta Zeta. Rachel first met Sydney at their fall formal and they connected very quickly. When Sydney claimed her as her little, Rachel gained a great friend. She was a bridesmaid in Sydney's wedding and gained a wonderful flower girl in her daughter, Harper.
Kyle Rheude
Groomsman
Mason and Kyle met while Mason was rushing Alpha Sig. Kyle's outgoing personality was a welcome contrast to Mason’s introverted manner and through him, Mason got to know many others in the fraternity and at Marshall. Kyle’s influence made a lasting impact on Mason. His outgoing nature and way of always helping someone in need is something Mason has strived to replicate. This same thought process is what brought Mason and Rachel together after all. Though they occasionally give each other a hard time (Mason more than Kyle), they respect and appreciate each other and always enjoy hearing from one another.
Catie Bryan
Bridesmaid
Catie and Rachel were in the same pledge class and family in Delta Zeta. They were close after their spring semester of their freshman year and eventually served on the Panhellenic Board together. Rachel knew when she and Mason got engaged that Catie would be standing by her side.
Kole Hopwood
Groomsman
Mason and Kole met while rushing their fraternity Alpha Sigma Phi together. While having completely opposite personalities, they became good friends and never pass up the opportunity to cause mischief. From living together to trying to stay in touch post-college, they both know: there is no problem an airhorn cannot solve.
Kristen Barlow
Bridesmaid
Kristen and Rachel are in the same family in Delta Zeta and they also lived in the DZ house together. Rachel and Kristen share a love of cats (sensing a pattern yet?) and have gone on many crazy adventures with the rest of their family. Rachel could not have gotten through college without Kristen.
Chase Moses
Groomsman
Mason met Chase when he was rushing Alpha Sigma Phi. In Chase, Mason found a brother with a similar personality. Chase became Brandon Parrish's little and an integral part of their friend group. They lived in an apartment together with Kole and Brandon and became even closer friends that know they can rely on each other, no matter the circumstances.
Shelby Cottrell
Bridesmaid
Shelby moved in with Rachel during their freshman year when their initial roommates didn't work out. Rachel has considered Shelby a close friend since then and was lucky to be in the same sorority family with her as well. Shelby moved into the DZ house while Rachel moved into another dorm on campus, but they stayed close.
Marcus Fowler
Groomsman
Mason and Marcus met during their time in Alpha Sigma Phi. Marcus is an outgoing friend who is always there to push the boundaries. Through him, Mason branched out and tried many things he otherwise never would not have, like Greek Sing (a dancing competition at Marshall). He's the life of the party and an essential person for a memorable get together.
