Wedding Party
Jillian Kai
Bride
Jillian is a Disney loving, Jesus following, big sister who loves people hard. Before meeting Samuel, her outlook on her life was dark. Then Samuel came into her life and her whole world shifted. She is caring, quiet at times, very silly and giggly at other times, loves books and loves the people around her. Samuel rescued her from the darkness and showed her the light.
Samuel Spalding
Groom
Samuel is a gentle sweet soul and a rough redneck at the same time. He loves with all his being and worships the Lord in all he does. He's an insanely hard worker and no matter how hard of a day he's had, he is still kind, loving and caring towards everyone he might meet. Jillian came into his world like a blue streak, showing him a different way to look at life and giving him the "magic" she has inside her.
Mia Smith
Maid of Honor
Mia is Jillian's younger sister and because she and madi mean so much to the bride, she simply couldn't choose one maid of honor. They both are! Mia is the most wonderful sister and friend. She has been there through every up and down and is the biggest blessing in Jillian's life
Dalton Dozier
Best Man
Dalton and Samuel have been best friends for almost their entire lives. When Samuel goes on an adventure, you can bet that Dalton is always right there beside him getting into something they DEFINITELY shouldn't be.
Madi Sowers
Maid of Honor
Madi and Jillian met in college and lived together for a year. Through difficult times, they overcame struggles that life threw at them together and thats what made their friendship grow. Madi is Jillian's rock and greatest friend and confidante. When they are together, no man nor crazy ex-roomate can come between them.
Josiah Mattingly
Groomsman
Josiah and Samuel have been best friends since 10th grade and when they're together, they're either inseparable or insufferable. The only thing stronger than their insults is their love for each other.
Piper Smith
Bridesmaid
Piper is Jillian and Mia's middle sister. She is a feisty 14 year old girl who loves doing professional nails and beach combing for sea creatures. She is such a joy and despite her attitude is a very loving and silly young woman.
Caleb Spalding
Groomsman
Caleb is Samuels little brother and even though they spent their youth as rivals and bullies to one another. Now they are the closest of friends and rely on each other for support, advice and sometimes car issues. Caleb is a mechanic and a very hard worker. He is admired and loved by both the groom and the bride.
Lilly Smith
Bridesmaid
Lilly is the littlest of the "Smithlings" but she thinks she's the oldest and the boss of everyone around her. She is a little ball of energy and spunk. She has sass to even put Piper to shame. We love her more than life.
Sabin Smith
Groomsman
Sabin is the ONLY brother in all the overwhelming amount of girls in the Smith family. He is a spitting image of our Uncle Kyle and one of three "Diabetic Warriors" in our family. He is very outgoing and has no less than 2 million random facts at his mental disposal. He is our "bubby boy" and the best little brother in the world.
Hudson Storer
Ring Bearer
Hudson is Samuels cousin and a ball of energy! Hudson loves football and tormenting his sister Lula. Samuel and Jay love him with all their hearts.
Lula Storer
Flower Girl
Lula is also Samuel's cousin and is the spunkiest most energetic and loving little girl. She is growing so fast and we are so honored to have her as our flower girl.
Michael "Papi" Shannon
Officiant
Papi is Samuel's maternal grandfather and a very interesting guy. You have to be careful around old Papi because he always has something up his sleeve. You'll never know if it's a story, a joke or a prank. We are so grateful to him for being our officiant, it will be something we never forget.
