Schellman and Wife
Wedding Party
Kristin Jordan
Maid of Honor
Hello family and loved ones! After Courtney and I moved into the Sigma Kappa house, we were destined for friendship. I didn't think I could still like anyone after living in that small of a room but have you met Courtney?! Her infectious laughter always kept a smile on my face. From our long distance Facetime dates, she has been my rock. I am so honored to stand alongside Courtney as she marries the love of her life and can not wait to see what life has in store for her and John!
Robert Schellman
Best Man
Hello! My name is Robert; I am John Patrick's younger brother. It is an absolute honor to be the best man to not only my best friend but a man that I have always looked up to. I am so glad that JP has found a woman that makes him happy, and I am excited to see what the future holds for both of them.
Sydnie Gallegos
Bridesmaid
Courtney and I met at Cal State Fullerton when I joined the sisterhood, Sigma Kappa. Courtney was one of my first friends! Little did I know she would become one of my closest as well. Shortly after Courtney moved to Texas, but that did not stop their friendship from growing. Late FaceTime phone calls, a million ugly snap chats, and now an ocean away, I have been right by her side. I can't wait to be there for her and John on this very special day.
Will Rogers
Groomsman
As a hereditarily independent representative of the parties to be wed I am honored to be a part of the upcoming ceremony. I’ve had the good fortune of JP’s friendship since high school, and despite an observable divergence in geographic mediums, continue to enjoy the shared interests, pragmatic axioms of life, and spicy memes on which our friendship began. I am excited for the upcoming day for John and Courtney and stoked for their overall chill factor.
Theresa Jones
Bridesmaid
I met Courtney five years ago when we lived together in our sorority house. We lived in the six man with four other girls and I was lucky enough to wake up to Courtney's face. Every. Single. Morning. All jokes aside, I am lucky enough to call her one of my best friends. From random Tuesday night adventures to talking about our goals and struggles in life, we've been through a lot, and I am so incredibly blessed to stand next to her as she marries the man of her dreams.
Brandon Manning
Groomsman
As Courtney’s younger brother, I am honored to be asked to share in her wedding day. She was my first best friend and will always be an important person in my life. She has added value, not just to my life, to everyone she meets. Now, she is adding a brother into the family. I wish Courtney and JP a lifetime of love, happiness, fun and laughter. May the Force be with them always!
Amanda Chacon
Bridesmaid
It's only been four years since I first met Courtney, but it already feels like it's been a lifetime! Our shared trait of constantly being put in the weirdest possible situations together made us instantly bond and gives us plenty of hilarious memories. I am so honored to make memories as a part of her and Jp's wedding, and cannot wait until the day they say #schellyes.
Jacob Schellman
Groomsman
Jacob is the youngest of the brothers in the Schellman family. Jacob recently graduated high school and is now studying electrical engineering at the Coast Guard Academy. John is extremely proud of Jacob and cannot wait to see him by his side on wedding day.
Kathleen Schellman
Bridesmaid
Hello all! I am Kathleen Schellman; (favorite) sister of the groom. Although I have only met Courtney once, I couldn't think of a better bride for my brother. She is the kind, caring, and genguine person I always imagained my brother spending the rest of his life with. I am so happy to have another sister and ready to celebrate the new Mr. and Mrs. Schellman.
Will Ruter
Groomsman
John and I met our freshman year at North Georgia College and State University. We were both freshman cadets assigned to Foxtrot Company. Our junior year we became roommates while living in the barracks. After graduation I pursued my chosen profession in Law Enforcement. I am currently living and working in the North Atlanta Metro Area.
Lindsay Clawson
Bridesmaid
Hello, family and friends of the bride and groom. I'm Lindsay Clawson, a longtime friend of the bride. She's seen my awkward years in middle school and high school. She convinced me to sign up for track even though I disliked running. She's worth it. We would walk home together and share everything. Throughout the years, we have both worked at Disneyland and studied at CSUF. I spend a lot of my time operating a rollercoaster, going on hikes, cooking with my boyfriend, and watching scary movies - The Shining is my favorite.
Nico Schellman
Groomsman
As JP’s older brother, I’ve seen him grow from a playful little boy to a confident young man. As military officers JP & I share a common bond in serving our country and I am extremely proud of him and of all of his accomplishment. Courtney could not have found a better man to spend the rest of her life with. It is an honor to be part of your wedding. May god bless you both on your big day!
Brianna Deckard
Bridesmaid
Courtney and I met by luck in Hawaii and quickly bonded over the fact we were both so far away from everything & everyone we knew. We shared our struggles of being in “military” relationships, Target & TJ Maxx runs were an essential part of our time together, and it soon became clear that Courtney is a friend that will forever be in my life. I’m so excited to stand next to such a wonderful and amazing woman on the day she gets to marry the love of her life!
Alexander Powell
Groomsman
Hi I'm Alex and and John has been one of my best friends since birth. Our moms became friends while pregnant with John & I and we were born about a month apart from each other. I have thoroughly enjoyed the life long relationship that I have had with the Schellman family and could not think of better addition to their clan than Courtney. It is an honor to be given this opportunity and I look forward to celebrating this special day with everyone. Rangers lead the way!
Krista Gibert
Bridesmaid
Courtney and I first met in college our sophomore year and the bond was instant. From getting ready to go to parties together to sleepovers on the couch watching The Little Mermaid, there was never a dull moment. Same major, same career path, and pretty much the same brain. I love that we are both passionate about the same things in life. I can't wait to watch her marry the love of her life and go through many more milestones!
Connor Quirk
Groomsman
JP & I have been close friends since elementary school and were ultimately classmates for around 12 years. I’m honored to play a part in him and Courtney’s wedding day. Given that JP is one of the most honest, loyal, hard working people I know, I couldn’t be more excited to celebrate that he has found his better half in Courtney.
