Samantha & Aaron
Wedding Party
Desiree Matchak
Matron of Honor
Oldest sister or second mom of the bride? The world may never know. Gut-punching jokester, baby-whisperer, and secret interior designer are a few ways you could describe Desiree. Sam was practically glued to Desiree's hip growing up, seeking big-girl time with the one she looked up to. Watch out for her on the dance floor as she might break out the stanky-leg!
Alyssa Picone
Maid of Honor
Alyssa aka Alyssa Picone Bologna.. another older sister of Sam. The sister that will forever keep us on our toes. Alyssa is a full dose of heartfelt love with a side of bringin it to ya sarcastic style. Alyssa and Sam grew up playing soccer together and fighting over the remote but without those years the bride wouldn't be able to cherish her childhood nearly as much.
Evelyn Cheek
Bridesmaid
Literally a sister from another mister. Evie is Sam’s soon to be sister-in-law. Sam remembers the years they spent growing up together.. wait they didn't, but it sure feels like it. If you ever wanted to meet a real-life Disney princess, then you came to the right place. Evie has the voice of an angel and a heart that matches it.
Haley Layman
Bridesmaid
Haley and Sam met in the first few days at Grand Canyon University, but the funny thing is they only grew up 30 minutes away from each other. Haley is the peacemaker, she couldn't hurt a fly unless it was maybe a lizard. Her mishaps/gullible tendencies will leave you with sore ab muscles the next day. Fun fact: one time she rubbed Nutella on her face because her friends told her it would stop her mouth from burning after eating something spicy.
Brittany Alayra
Bridesmaid
When Brittany and Sam first met, there wasn't an instant attraction. Now that this is down on paper, it sounds like the beginning of a romantic comedy and it pretty much is. Brittany can talk to anything that has a pulse, dance to any song that has a beat, and eat anything that contains chocolate. Catch her by the dessert table!
Emily Simpson
Bridesmaid
Emily and Sam have been friends since Emily was in diapers. Sadly they had to come to terms with growing up and no longer wearing diapers, despite the advantages. Emily is immensely kind hearted and loves others so well your heart feels like it's being wrapped in a cozy blanket. She is steadfast and unconditional to which we are lucky to have her aboard.
Madison Blakeley
Bridesmaid
Roommates at Grand Canyon University and unexpectedly roommates now. Maddie and Sam understand each other like no one else. They share deviated septums, OCD characteristics, and enneagram obsessions. Sam and Maddie also parent together - they are proud parents to Maddie's dog, Ollie.
Joshua Manning
Best Man
Now this specimen before you isn't just a handsome outer shell. Beneath the unfathomable exterior he presents is a man of quality. "Quality not Quantity." Josh Manning lives to make little of himself to make the most of the King and Creator. He might even tell you he's undoubtedly the greatest there is, aside from that King. But as time has shown us, he truly sets the standard of a quality man. Joshua Manning, A Quality Man
Caydon Swobe
Best Man

Collin and the groom have respected these social constructs and allowed them to break the planes of reality like never before seen.

He is a blessing to each of these men and every team to which he belongs. Collin Crain, Mr. Hallmark
Cutter Cannon
Groomsman
You could not go wrong in a (bro)ship with Cutter Cannon. He is known for making you feel outrageously comfortable around him and will win anyone over with his boyish charm. He also has a mean rap game to accompany his fierce heart, but most of all, he is a man full of faith. Whether you're looking for some Canadian humor or someone you can trust whole heartedly, Cutter is your guy. Cutter Cannon, The Big Guy
Nicholas Gillette
Groomsman
Nicholas Gillette is a sophisticated fellow. In fact, he's not just a fellow, he is the coolest cat on the block. If you saw him walking down the street you'd find a trail of people with sprained necks, victims to his "deadly double-take.” His one two combo of a heart stopping smolder and leaving no man behind makes him an essential to every squad. You could not ask for a more loyal brother. Nicholas Gillette, The Bro
Benjamin Aster
Groomsman
Mr. Ben Aster is amongst some of the wisest on the field. He comes with a gentle touch that's backed with mountain moving faith. Ben has seen the world and encountered numerous cultures, he even plays scrabble in multiple languages. The groom has been so fortunate to learn from Ben's understanding of the world and experience his belly rolling humor. Ben Aster lives by the standard set by our savior and lives it so well. This entire squad has been so lucky to witness such a journey like his. Ben Aster, The Journeyman
Samuel Martin
Groomsman
Now with this elusive creature, there are a few things the general public must know. Be warned, he is known for putting your dog on top of the dryer and sticking a finger in your food. Scientists and researchers have yet to uncover the ecological advantage these actions produce for Sam Martin but hang tight, we're workin on it. Sam Martin loves others unconditionally and sees no flaw or quirk. With a heart of gold and legs that will never run out of steam on the soccer field, Sam Martin is one of a kind. Sam Martin, The Lover & a Fighter
Christian Sudjian
Groomsman
We apologize for the poor quality photo of Christian Sudjian. It is very rare to catch this man in a state other than what we refer to as "Hype" or "Turnt Up". Mr. Sudjian isn't just a little engine that could, he is a little engine that can and WILL! Christian contains so much life and spirit it's hard not catching the contagious energy he projects. Without saying too much, you will just have to see it for yourself on November 2nd. Christian Sudjian, The "Hype" Man
