Wedding Party
Laura
Maid of Honor
Laura has been my best friend for well over a decade. We met in middle school and spent all of high school as stand partners in orchestra, teamed up in gym class, and at each others lockers at every chance. We’ve done some incredible trips since then and lived nearby up until recently. I couldn’t imagine not having her next to me on this most special day.
Nick
Best Man
Nick and I met in college and ended up being partners on the bass fishing team. We've traveled across the country towing a boat, sleeping in tents and trucks, getting to know each other, and that has continued even after college. I was able to teach him a lot of what he knows about fishing and he maybe taught me a thing or two as well. I'm happy to have him next to me for another exciting moment.
Anna
Bridesmaid
Anna was my college roommate all four years and we were instantly close, in proximity and friendship. She was there for the start of Reed and I’s relationship and has always been the best third wheel, or maybe Reed is the real third wheel with us. Our guest bedroom now is referred to as “Anna’s room”
Ben
Groomsman
Ben has been my friend since early elementary school. We have spent countless hours fishing and hunting together. From fishing in a canoe in his pond, to taking the boat to Nepco, and pretend hunts with Nerf guns, to walking through swamps for public land bucks. Ben has been by my side for as long as I can remember.
Maria
Bridesmaid
When Anna and I were looking for another roommate starting junior year of college, we met Maria. She came over for a movie night to get to know us more before signing a lease and when I saw she had Star Wars AND Top Gun stickers on her laptop, I knew we were going to be more than just roommates. Our trio is one of my most cherished relationships.
Caleb
Groomsman
As a college friend and a great roommate, Caleb and I really became close at Treehaven one summer during college. Wading in Crescent Lake, catching crappies and late night drives with him saved my sanity from dorm life. I'm grateful to still live nearby to be able to crack a few cold ones and get out fishing with him.
Erinn
Bridesmaid
Erinn and I interned together one summer and we ended up having a class together the next year. Her and I now stay in touch by sending each other long “vlogs” about whatever our lives are up to and usually something about our dogs. Erinn is my absolute hype woman and has given me so much support and comfort through the years of our friendship.
Sam
Groomsman
Sam went from being Tess' brother to being like a brother to me. It's nice having someone I can always talk sports with. I look forward to beating him in driveway basketball and fantasy football for a long time to come.
Leah
Bridesmaid
Leah is Reed’s sister but I knew her before I really even knew him. Her and I had German class together in high school. I’m so happy to officially have a sister in my life now, although I’ve seen her as one for a long time already.
Kaleb
Groomsman
From being my sisters husband to now also being like another brother to me, I'm grateful to have Kaleb in the family. He's always jumping in to lend a hand in fixing anything and enjoying a Sundrop and good game of Catan after.
