Mandy & Chris
Wedding Party
Ashley
Maid of Honor
She’s my person. We’ve known each other since we were 5 years old. We worked together through high school and once graduation was around the corner we decided we were off to start careers together. We moved to Anchorage and became hair stylists. We have been each others best advisors and worst advisors growing up. Together we are the perfect travel duo. We have made trips to California (2X), Tennessee, Hawaii, Nevada and here soon when she takes off to Arizona I’m sure we will expand our horizons onto many other cities. Ashley is the most selfless, motivated, go-getting, badass hairdresser/dental assistant/ truck driver/ realtor I have ever known. On a perfect night in, you’ll find us chatting up a storm over fro-yo and binge watching stupid Netflix shows. I couldn’t ask for a better MOA.
Angelo
Bridesman
This guy, reminds me to be a kid always. 12+ years of friendship, working together, living together, and countless childish shenanigans have created a friendship stronger than any I’ve know. I’ve learned so much from this guy and together we have push each other to grow.
Whitney
Bridesmaid
Whitney and I go way back. Back to school bus routes, dishing desserts at DQ, and long walks on the beach... to bon fires. Together we built a business and created a family of fantastic business women. Whitney is a beautiful example of a wife, mother, partner and friend. My wedding party would not be complete without this fiery redhead.
Suzy
Bridesmaid
Suzy: the laughter in every story I’ve shared since I was 16 years old. Not only has Suzy snuggled her way into my heart, but she’s staked her claim on my family’s hearts as well. She’s essentially the sister I didn’t know I had and it’s awesome. She’s my true blue and will surly be the master mind behind everything floral in my wedding. Keep your eyes on this girl come my wedding day, she will be the dancing queen with the flask.
Sally
Bridesmaid
Flying 2,685 miles from Milton, Kansas is my incredible cousin. She would travel here every week if she could and our wedding gives her a SOLID excuse to come back up to the last frontier, along with her husband Hank. Sally has been my pen pal and my closest cousin growing up. We are pretty much the same person, just in different parts of the country. It’ll be a journey but I couldn’t imagine my wedding party without her.
Kym
Bridesmaid
The first time I met Kym, I pretty much convinced her to forget all other options and stay in Anchorage and work with me. Little did she know she would be forever stuck with me. Kym is labeled my “forever date” because we would stick together while all of our friends we coupling off. Funny thing that we both started our relationships at the same time. It only seems appropriate that as my “forever date” she is by my side to see Chris and I tie the knot.
Preston
Best Man
Preston is my best friend. We have been friends since high school, lived together, and just about everything else. Preston is very upbeat and an outgoing person. He is always laughing and joking. You can't have a party without Big P.
Brody
Groomsman
Brody is the middle child in our trio of siblings. I would even say he is the wildest of the bunch. Brody enjoys extreme sports and will try anything once. He is loyal to the end and my group of guys wouldn't be complete without him.
Zack
Groomsman
Zack is Mandy's brother, as well as our roommate. He is an aspiring graphic design artist. Well versed on pop culture and music and there is never a dull moment with Zack. He will be your go to guy for suggesting the best beer on the day of our wedding.
Rainey
Groomswoman
Rainey is the youngest of the siblings as well as the bridal party. She is obsessed with rainbows and cats. Some would say she is tied with Chris for the most social of the Smith family. She is incredibly smart and well versed for her age on many subjects. From random facts to life lessons Rainey is a joy to talk to.
Kyle
Groomsman
Kyle has been one of my closest friends since freshman year of high school. Kyle is mechanically savvy and often a life saver when any of us are in need of a hand. He has always been there for us and we honored to have him beside us on our wedding day.
Trent
Groomsman
Trent and I go as far back as high school and playing football together. He is always down for a game of disk golf and can always be depended on to get a job done. Trent is also a member of our armed services which makes sense because he always has our back.
Scarlet
Flower Girl
Scarlet was the first baby in our friend family! Now that she’s all grown up, she is the obvious choice for our flower girl! With her smile and charisma this little fashionista is going to be the star of the show.... aside from the bride and groom.
Titus
Ring Bearer
Rawr!!!! Here is our RING BEAR! This cute little man is going to look so spiffy in his fanciest clothes with his big beautiful smile. Expect many laughs and with his parent genes probably a couple sweet dance moves.
