Sarah & Stephen
Wedding Party
Emily Mackowski
Matron of Honor
Sarah and Emily have been thick as thieves since the beginning. These sisters grew up doing everything together. It is rare for them to miss a day communicating in some way! Emily may live in Florida, but Sarah knows all the details of her day to day family life, especially her nephews' crazy antics. Each and every story is a treasure. Sarah couldn't be happier to have Emily standing by her side!
Cody Frye
Best Man
Cody and Stephen have known each other since they were wee lads kicking and screaming on the soccer pitch. Stephen actually pulled his first ever nutmeg on Cody....These two would agree some of their best memories came from club and high school soccer days. Their adventures have been one epic story after another. You can always count on them to jump on the dance floor and everyday is bad day to be a beer when these get two are together.
Christie Kahlon
Bridesmaid
Sarah and Christie first met in Cochran, Georgia at Middle Georgia College - bonding over their love of College Soccer while living in Haynes Hall, the lady athletic dorms. They shared many late nights studying and strategizing their Rock Band talents together. We love Christie for her huge heart, thoughtfulness and infectious laugh! One of the best laughs! She'll be the first on the dance floor tonight busting moves with her husband Sahej.
Matt McCormick
Groomsman
Matt and Stephen practically grew up together attending the same school K-8. They also lived right down the street from each other. Matt's house always had the coolest events with backyard football games and pool parties. They often butted heads when it came to competition... all tough love in the end. For the record, Stephen did win their last pick up basketball game...make sure and as him about it.
Kristy Jewel
Bridesmaid
Kristy helped the stars align when Sarah flew to Jacksonville, Florida to be in her wedding on Jekyll Island. Sarah happily accepted the role to be a part of Kristy's "Bride Tribe." It was on that flight that Sarah and Stephen first met. Kristy and Sarah became friends immediately when Sarah transferred to Rome H.S. in Rome, Georgia. Kristy welcomed Sarah with open arms and was such a sweetheart. From that day on they have always soaked up their time together! From ski trips at Perfect North, strolling the streets of Tokyo or checking out the hippest places in Carrollton or Milledgeville, Georgia they have always made wonderful memories!
Mitchell Crooks
Groomsman
Mitchell and Stephen became friends playing basketball freshman year of high school. Neither one ever backed down from the other. They pushed each other on the court and the gridiron. Can you guess who the kicker was? Unfortunately, Mitchell is a Steelers fan, but... we all make mistakes. Whodey! Their friendship continued to college where they would support each other at their separate collegiate events. Always a good time when these two are together.
Ashley "Barbie" Keith
Bridesmaid
Sarah and Ashley...I mean Barbie, no one calls her anything except BARBIE (excluding her parents of course). These two met while attending college at Middle Georgia College and playing soccer for the Lady Wolves. The Wolves may have been Red but Barbie was usually sporting everything Pink. They have shared many Mexican meals toasting with jalapeno margaritas (watch out for the seeds, HOT!). Cheers to memories and many more to come!
Brian Runyon
Groomsman
Brian and Stephen met at Thomas More College (TMCOD) where they both played soccer. The summer Brian transferred to TMC was the year the team was traveling to Costa Rica. Saints role deep! They have shared unforgettable memories playing the beautiful game together. Brian has been nutmegged by Stephen on more than one occasion... Especially, while they coached women's high school soccer together. These two have always had a blast together.
