Abby

Maid of Honor

Hello everyone ! You may not know me now, but you soon will. I am the MOH, the sister of the bride, and some may even go as far as saying the hilarious one. I have known the bride for approximately 31 and a half years. The first 16 of those years were full of tribulations, many moments of strength, some moments of weakness, and lots of learning. The most recent 15 years, however have been the most incredible. As Lauren stood by my side for the first 6 or 7 years of my life- speaking for me, walking for me, feeding me, ensuring I had everything I needed in order to survive, You will see me doing to same for her throughout her big day. This will include, but limited to, giving an epic speech, feeding the bride to allow her the perfect ratio of food to tasty drink, and standing by her side, reminding her of the exciting, and incredible life her and Kyle have to look forward to. As my very cute son walks the rings down the aisle, and my handsome husband stands alongside Kyle, we will all be remembering this very special day to come, for the rest of our lives.

Here, Ashley and Lauren met as co-workers and quickly became the best of friends both in and out of work. After a couple years, Lauren moved out of state to pursue nursing but their friendship always remained very strong. They helped each other through many life transitions and challenges in the following years. Ashley and Lauren often refer to each other as “my person” and compare their friendship to Meredith and Christina from their favorite TV show, Grey’s Anatomy. When Lexington Equine Surgery closed its doors years later, Ashley decided to take the leap and pursued a degree in nursing. She now works as a registered nurse in the Trauma ICU. Ashley is the proud dog mom to the fluffiest Australian Shepherd named Wyatt and enjoys spending her downtime hiking in the beautiful Adirondacks.

Jeramy

Groomsman

My name is Jeramy Williams, I am 33 years old and was born January 27 1989. I have always been an avid outdoorsman, enjoying hunting, trapping and just being outside. I have always had a competitive side; starting in pulling lawn and garden tractor when I was 8 years old and evolved from there. Next came racing Moto cross and 10 years in a dirt circle track car. After a fractured back, a few years off, and adding a daughter to my life my racing career was coming to an end. Near the end of my racing I had my best friend Kyle Scott drive my car. He was the only person I would ever trust in my equipment still to this day. Now my days are filled with being a dad, husband, and still loving the outdoors. I have known Kyle basically all my life starting in elementary school and staying friends clean up to present day. He may have even carried me through a few classes in school, hahaha. Then I started helping him on his father's racecar and eventually on his. I do remember the night I even saved his life from a hammer and his dad haha. Lots of great rides in the big red trailer. And just a great guy to go through life's wild ride with. Couldn't dream of a better friend. May not see each other as much as we use to with life happenings, work, families and whatever else but Kyle's always been there for me and I've tried to always be there for him. Just love that Kyle Scott !!! Happy to finally be in his wedding. Almost 10 years to the day he stood as my best man!!!
