Shannon & Nicholas
Wedding Party
Jacob Pierce
Officiant
Shannon’s oldest brother. We laugh about us passing each other in the middle of the night sneaking in/out of our parents house when we were younger. Jacob lives in Chicago so when he gets to come home for a visit, it’s always a treat! He is such a great Uncle to both of our boys. Jacob is such a great inspiration of hard work and dedication to our little family. We are beyond grateful that he was willing to be such a big part of our special day!
Claire Berger
Maid of Honor
Claire and I met through Massage Envy. She worked at the front desk when I was hired on as the Greeley Manager. I swore I would never friend any of my employees on Facebook because I was determined to keep work and home life separate. This amazing human made me want to break that rule. She has always been honest, supportive, and a true friend through the 3.5 years I’ve known her!
Ben Sledge
Bridesman
Shannon’s first brother. We grew up as best friends, with a love/hate relationships. We laugh so hard reminiscing about failed attempts at entrepreneurship, trying to sell the snacks our parents purchased to other kids in the neighborhood. I am so thankful that he now lives here in NoCo for us to build an amazing friendship as adults!
Andrew Sledge
Bridesman
Shannon’s youngest brother and “first child”. Since they are 10 years apart, Shannon had a huge part in raising Andrew. Andrew takes after Shannon quite a bit in his stubbornness. Andrew lives in South Louisiana in a small town called Hammond, but is not too far away from New Orleans. We are happy to have him in Colorado for our special day!
Jordan Pierce
Bridesman
Shannon’s second oldest brother. Shannon was the Maid of Honor in his wedding to Shannon’s long-time friend Katie. They have two boys, Mac and Sam, who are some of Caleb’s favorite cousins! Shannon and Jordan have a few inside jokes from our years spent fighting at home during high school. Jordan had to cart Shannon around since she wasn't in a hurry to get her Driver's License until he moved away for college. Jordan is another great example of hard work for our family and we are so thankful to have him to look up to!
Christopher Nikko Johnson
Best Man
Chris and I met several years ago working at the oh so glorious Chuck E. Cheese. There have had many great times and adventures throughout the last 9+ years that we have known each other. We have remained close fiends even through a couple of moves and some interesting times. In the more recent years Chris has become more than just a great friends. He is now the father of my niece and nephew, and future brother in law. Chris is an incredibly charismatic person. He is the kind of person anyone would want in their life, and has developed into a great father, uncle, and brother.
Amanda Pollock
Groomswoman
Amanda is Nick's oldest sister. As is to be expected while growing up we had an up and down relationship. As kids one day we would take turns riding snowboards and sleds down the stairs and were best friends. The next day we would just simply try to push each other down the stairs and were not friends in any fashion. As we have grown up we no longer play on the stairs and we have grown into being best friends all of the time. Amanda is one of the kindest people I have known in my life and I am truly grateful to have her standing by my side on such an important day in my life.
Erika Pollock
Groomswoman
Erika is Nick’s second oldest sister. Erika and I only part way grew up together. When we were still young Erika moved to Iowa to live with our Father and I stayed in Colorado with our Mother. While we did not live together full time we still maintained a relationship and have had some great experiences. One of the greatest times we have had in our adult lives was spending her birthday and Halloween in Las Vegas. Vegas can be fun and entertaining enough, throw in Halloween and it is surely a great time. We have made many great memories throughout our lives and I am so glad she has agreed to stand with us.
Channing Pollock
Groomsman
Channing is Nick's only brother and the youngest of the siblings. Being 9 years apart and living in separate states we did not grow up together but we have built a great relationship. Channing is one of the funnest people I have had the pleasure of knowing and am proud to be able to call my brother. As I have watched Channing grow it has been an amazing experience watching his transition from the fun loving witty kid into the man he is becoming. Channing as been an inspiration and a reminder to follow your passion as he now is pursuing a degree in music education. I am incredibly excited for such a great person and my brother join Shannon and I on our wedding day.
