Kristen & Ross
Wedding Party
Jennifer Brackett
Bridesmaid
You make the world a better place with your laughter, strength, and love. You've made me a better and stronger person, teacher, and friend. I am SO excited you are a part of this day! I can't wait! Thank you for all the love and support you have given me in the best and worst of times. I love you, friend (and our silly voices). You knew Ross even before I did (her husband recruited Ross to Chattanooga from PT school) and encouraged me to go out with him. Tis a small world and I'm so glad you, Jenn, are in mine.
Laney Francis
Bridesmaid
We've been best friends since we were in the 1st grade, and are planning to be cool old ladies in a nursing home together one day (we have big plans). This lady has been through it all with me. Highlights include a pioneer girl phase, a cats in the mall phase (oddly we combined the two somehow), and a pant suit phase (I was alone on this one...she just got to watch this happen). So many stories, so many "whys". Thanks for being my friend through all the weirdest parts of growing up, and still putting up with me today. You will always be the Be-Fri to my St-End.
Megan Howard
Bridesmaid
She's got a heart (and pipes) of gold. She is down to clown, and has a big piece of my heart... I couldn't be up there without her, or do life without her. She is one of the strongest, most beautiful souls on this earth. Hopefully we can a) keep it together and not cry up there and b) not make weird faces at each other while the ceremony is happening. It's free game after that. Thank you for being my rock. I love you.
Kim Wilford Ryan
Bridesmaid
She inspires me and rocks everything she does. She is strength and generosity. She is a powerhouse. I am lucky to call you a friend, and make up hashtags with you. You are the Sally to my boo. Does that make sense? Of course it does. You know. Thanks for being my friend and partner in crime. Every blonde needs a brunette best friend. #itriedsohard #bridesmaids
David Brackett
Groomsman
David is one of the main reasons I ended up in Chattanooga which eventually led me to meeting Kristen. His genuine personality and honest kindness were why I decided to move south and work with him. He is someone I look up to as a mentor and a friend. Looking forward to having you there for our big day. Your turn to bring the bourbon!
Bailey Ann Sauerwein
Groomswoman
Bailey has been my best friend for the better part of a decade. We were both on the track team at UW-La Crosse together and have developed a friendship that has lasted across time and space. She understands my deep seeded nerdiness and is my ride or die. Sheep Island!
Logan Sims
Groomsman
Logan and I became friends in 2015 through work. He is someone who I can have serious conversations with about the meaning of it all. This is of course balanced by a healthy dose of beer drinking, guitar picking and good times.....sometimes too much of a good time.
Brandon Slaven
Groomsman
Brandon and I became friends in the summer of 2016 through Logan. We immediately hit it off with our shared passions of exercising, sports and good times. He is someone who is reliable and dependable when you need a hand. Brobuddies for life.
Andrew Severn
Officiant
Andrew and I became friends in PT school in 2012. He is a brother to me and I have enjoyed watching his beautiful family grow. Our friendship is symbiotic and I like to think that we learn a little something from each other each time we meet. He is genuine, reliable, kind, intelligent and all around good guy. Love you, brother.
