Derrick Hamilton

Kelly Nix

Mother of the Bride

My Mom🤍 She is someone i admire more than words can say. Her love, support and guidance have shaped me into who i am today. She has always been my biggest cheerleader and i am so thankful to celebrate this big day with her. I couldn’t do it without her.

Cindy Hamilton

Mother of the Groom

Cindy is the heart of her family, always bringing everyone together and reminding us how special time spent with loved ones truly is. Whether it’s making memories on family trips to Daytona Beach or sharing magical moments at Disney this past year, she fills every gathering with love. From the very beginning, she has been incredibly supportive of our relationship, welcoming me with open arms. We are so grateful for her love, encouragement, and the strong family foundation she has created.

Dave Nix

Father of the Bride

My Dad🤍 My dad may not be here with us physically but his love remains a constant part of my life. My dad always taught me to live a little! And to always have fun. He continues to guide me in ways seen and unseen. This day will be a mix of emotions to not have him here to give me away, or share all the special things a father should on his daughters wedding day… but as i always do i will do the best at remembering him and celebrating just the way he taught me to 🍻

Rick Hamilton

Father of the Groom

Rick is always showing up with a helping hand and a supportive heart. Whether he’s spending time with loved ones, sharing his passion for classic cars, or making special memories with Georgia, his love for family is always at the center of everything he does. From the very beginning, he has been incredibly supportive of our relationship, and we are so grateful for his guidance, encouragement, and the strong family values he brings to our lives.

Katie Cooper

Matron of Honor

Meet Katie, my Matron of Honor🤍 Katie is the definition of a true best friend- the most loyal, honest, loving and always there when it matters most. Her heart and dedication to the people she loves makes her so special. No matter how much time has passed we pick up right back where we left off. If the two of us are out for the night you better watch out, we love to sing at the tops of our lungs, encourage each other to live our best lives even if that means ending the night doing the watermelon crawl💛 I couldn’t imagine this day without having her by my side.

Sean Ebert

Best Man

Sean has been by my side for 23 years, and choosing him as my best man was never a question. From the very beginning of Shelby and my relationship, Sean has been one of our biggest supporters, always encouraging us and genuinely believing in what we have together. Our bond has been built through every season of life—working jobs side by side, living together, building cars together, and somehow still making time for our almost daily phone calls. Whether we’re talking Jeeps, boating, or quoting our favorite Jimmy Buffett lyrics, Sean has always been the constant. He’s loyal, steady, and the kind of friend who shows up without being asked. I’m incredibly grateful for the life we’ve shared and even more grateful to have him standing next to me on one of the most important days of my life.

Rachel Solak

Bridesmaid

Rachel is the brunette to my blonde and proof that first impressions aren’t everything. When we first met during our banking days, she wasn’t so fond of me— but once she got to know me, she realized I was quite the opposite. She’s always down for a good time, and she absolutely knows how to back that a** up. Im so happy to have her as one of my bridesmaids🤍

Patrick Plenge

Groomsman

Patrick and I became friends over our shared love of custom cars—fittingly, since he just happened to own a custom car shop. What started in the garage quickly turned into years of memories, including countless summers spent on the lake and trips out to the Ohio islands. Patrick is my go-to concert buddy, the guy who can quote random movie quotes at any moment, and the first person who ever told me all about Key West—then promptly took me there for my first visit. He’s brought a lot of adventure into my life (and honestly, I’d probably have a lot more money if I didn’t know him), but I wouldn’t trade the memories, laughs, or friendship for anything. I’m proud to have him standing by my side on this day.

Brooke-Lyn Nix

Bridesmaid

Brooke-Lyn is not only one of my best friends, but also my sister-in-law and someone who has been part of my life since I was in high school. She has stood by me through so many seasons — sharing in the most exciting moments and supporting me through the hardest ones. Her love, loyalty, and constant presence mean more to me than words can say, and I couldn’t imagine celebrating this day without her by my side.

Eddie Snook

Groomsman

Eddie and I have been friends for 25 years, ever since we met at the city lot—where he was immediately known for having the loudest stereo system around. From there came countless nights cruising Claremont Ave., windows down, music up, and not a care in the world. Our friendship only grew stronger as life moved on—especially once I got my pontoon boat and Eddie showed up with his camper. What started as summer fun turned into a tradition, and fast forward to 2026, we’re still doing it: summers spent at the lake and winters escaping to his condo in Florida. Eddie is one of those rare friends who’s been there through every chapter, every phase, and every season of life. I’m incredibly grateful for the memories we’ve made and even more grateful to have him standing beside me on this day.

Cassie Grant

Bridesmaid

Cassie is my soon-to-be sister-in-law and the one you can always count on for a quick joke or perfectly timed sarcastic comment. Her goofy personality and effortless humor light up every room she walks into, and she has a way of keeping things fun no matter the moment. Life is simply more entertaining with Cassie around, and I wouldn’t want to celebrate this day without her by my side.

Ben Sapyta

Groomsman

Ben was someone everyone in town knew—but I didn’t really get to know him until I was a Snap-On dealer servicing his shop. One random day, he asked if I knew anyone who wanted a pair of Kid Rock tickets, and honestly… the rest is history. From there came motorcycles, summers spent on the boat at Pleasant Hills (usually in the exact same spot as our buddy Eddie), and a friendship that somehow just kept getting stronger. Fast forward to today, and not much has changed—we still spend our summers at the lake, still go to way too many concerts, and still find ourselves in more drunken adventures than we probably should admit. We also share a deep appreciation for wildly unpractical vehicles, questionable decisions, and a lot of laughs along the way. Ben is one of those friends who brings chaos, stories, and unforgettable memories—and I wouldn’t have it any other way. I’m proud to have him standing by my side on this day.

Chelsea Long

Bridesmaid

Chelsea✨ Chelsea is my cousin and someone I’ve looked up to for as long as I can remember. Growing up, she was always fun, loud, and guaranteed to make everyone laugh — and she had the absolute coolest Barbies and outfits, which I proudly inherited as hand-me-downs. As we got older, we may have clashed a little, but those moments only made us closer. Through every season, Chelsea has been one of my biggest supporters, always showing up and making sure she’s present for the moments that matter most. I’m so grateful to have her by my side on such a special day.
