Kyle & Lucy :)
Wedding Party + Special People :)
Kyle Inman
Groom
(Lu): Kyle is the best kind of human. He's a man who champions others, a friend who cares deeply, and a partner who delights in all facets of my being. Whatever the nature of your relationship with him, you will be better because of it. I am grateful to be his for life. :)
Lucy :) Squires
Bride
(Kyle): I have had a long, weary road to find Lucy - I count myself privileged to live in an age where I could find such a gem, such a beautiful flower in the concrete, 14 hours away from my home state. Every second of our journey led us to become the kind of people who were exactly right for one another. I wouldn't trade any of it for the world, not now that I've found mine. <3
Cody Kovar
Best Man
(Kyle): Many years ago, there was a tear-filled conversation where Cody and I knew we'd be each other's best friend for years to come. Though we are not as geographically close these days, it takes 5 minutes of talking with Cody to put us right back where we left off - as best buddies. He is a genuine, thoughtful friend, and he is irreplaceably standing next to me come May. :)
Melissa Cross
Matron of Honor
(Lu): Mel is the kind of friend that I hope everyone finds in their lifetime. She is encouraging and sincere and cares deeply about the things that truly matter. I admire her creativity and her devotion to Jesus. She lives her life and makes choices with her family that take into consideration the needs of others. I love her more than words can say. :)
Abigail Tackitt
Groomswoman
(Kyle): I am SO pumped to have two incredibly meaningful, influential women at my side. If you know us, though you may count it as a bit unorthodox, you know it also seems right. Abigail loves with a depth that few in this world will ever know, and I am unbelievably grateful to have been a recipient of said love, and to have seen her and served with her through our highest highs and lowest lows. I love you to the Middle East and beyond, friend! (Lu): Abigail is a woman who moves through the world with great intention and deep care for others. She is a person worth knowing and a friend worth having. :)
Sam Squires
Bridesman
(Lu): I am so grateful to have both of my brothers standing with me on my wedding day. Sam is the eldest; he is a deep thinker and an avid conversationalist. We have seen each other through many seasons of life, and I am glad that we shall continue to do so for all the years of life to come. :)
Samuel Wing
Groomsman
(Kyle): Samuel and I go farther back than I do with almost anyone. He has always been a friend I can laugh with, a friend I can count on. He took me like a brother on one of my earliest ski trips with his family, and he was there with me like a brother the night my life changed forever all those years ago. I will always be grateful for my friend and my brother, "Sammy Slick". :)
Tiffany Bennett
Bridesmaid
(Lu): Tiffany and I go way back to my college days when I *almost* spent a summer joining her team in Southeast Asia for a cultural immersion program. I spent that summer with Nana in Bermuda instead, which is a whole other story and gift. Tiffany was a great mentor to me back then, so when we ran into each other in Clarkston, GA many years later, it was wonderful to rekindle a friendship. She has been a consistent and beautiful presence in my life ever since. She has also had a unique and very personal role in Kyle's and my relationship. I couldn't be more thrilled to have her by my side on our special day. :)
Kayli Inman
Groomswoman
(Kyle): Kayli and I fought bitterly at times growing up... mostly because I was pretty annoying. She has, since then, given to me the sweetest words, and has been my partner in crime since we were both in middle school. She is the best kind of friend you can have, and (I'm sure) would love to talk with you about Betty White or Hall and Oates... (Lu): Kayli is sincerely one of the funniest and cutest people I've had the pleasure of knowing. I'm grateful she'll be standing with us and look forward to becoming her sister. :)
Nathaniel Squires
Bridesman
(Lu): What a genuine gift it is to have both of my brothers by my side as I marry the love of my life. Nathaniel is the middle sibling of our bunch; he is charismatic and artistic. I'm grateful to have known him for my whole life and glad that our friendship shall grow as the years continue to come. :)
Jason Owens
Groomsman
(Kyle): Jason is hard to describe. He is simultaneously one of the smartest and silliest people I know. He moves with a grace through life, with deep conviction and integrity. He consistently makes the "right" decisions in wide-ranging scenarios. It almost feels weird to speak so highly of him, though, as I know he will reference these words to remind me later... thanks for that, future Jason. I digress; Jason Owens is a spiritual father and best friend to me, and I'm honored he'd choose to stand by my side come May.
Erin Owens
Bridesmaid
(Lu): Erin and her husband Jason have long been mentors and friends to my beloved Kyle. I heard about their wonderful family long before I had the chance to connect with them myself. Ever since our first conversation, Erin and I have connected deeply. She encourages me, challenges me, and loves me toward freedom. Our friendship is a beautiful gift; I am so grateful to have her with us on this most monumental occasion. :)
Hannah Dancer
Flower Queen
(Lu): Hannah is someone who has had a profound, positive impact on my life, probably more than she even realizes. I am glad we're family and have always admired her discipline, her strength, and her wit. We share a love of books and the outdoors; she is humble and grounded, and I seek to be like her in the way she makes herself present to each day as it comes. "Flower Queen" doesn't seem quite right to describe the significant role the Dancer women are filling on this special day, but it's the best I could come up with. Regardless of what you call it, there are no other people I'd rather have spread petals before my dad and I walk down the aisle. :)
Sarah Dancer
Flower Queen
(Lu): Sarah is my dearly beloved cousin; she is creative and kind and silly and fun. I am so grateful our mothers are sisters and treasure the time and space we share together. She's a prolific knitter, and even has a few fuzzy friends that, if we're lucky, may make an appearance on this special occasion. To learn more about her crafty adventures, follow @sarahsknitknacks on Instagram. "Flower Queen" doesn't seem quite right to describe the significant role the Dancer women are filling on this special day, but it's the best I could come up with. Regardless of what you call it, there are no other people I'd rather have spread petals before my dad and I walk down the aisle. :)
Kelly Inman
Officiant
(Kyle): My dad is one of my best friends, and the clear choice for us to make as officiant of my wedding. I love you so much, dad! (Lu): Kelly is funny and kind and perhaps the hardest working person I know. He is devoted to his family, his congregants, his students, his athletes, and his community at large. We are so thankful to have him with us on this day and grateful to stand beside him as he guides into marriage. :)
Charlie Squires
Father of the Bride
(Lu): Though I shall miss sharing his last name, I'll remain grateful for the Squires parts of me. Some wisdom that my dad taught me from a young age was that you can always learn something from everyone, no matter how similar or different you may seem. I think of this often and delight in our shared love for adventure and travel. :)
Keri Inman
Mother of the Groom
(Kyle): My mom is beautiful, talented, and is one of the main voices of reason I listen to when there is a fork in the road. Lu will be taking most of those responsibilities off her plate, but nobody can replace my mama. <3 (Lu): Keri is fun and loving and beautiful inside and out. I admire her honesty and care for others. She is wonderfully creative (you can admire her work by appreciating the signs she's making for our wedding!). We share many things in common - among them our love for dogs and her son. :)
Lucy Squires
Mother of the Bride
(Lu): My mom and I not only share a name, she has also imparted to me her strengths of empathy and compassion toward others. These are gifts I cherish; I'm grateful she will be with me on this day we've both hoped for for quite some time. :)
Pat Merrick
Musician
(Lu): Pat has been a dear friend of Kyle's for quite some time. He is a deep thinker and very gifted musician; he will be closing out our wedding reception in Greenville with performing a live set of love songs. What a gift. :)
Isaac & Destiny
Photographer & Videographer
(Lu): Isaac and Destiny are lovely humans. Kyle and I felt drawn to them immediately. They are grounded and fun and passionate about telling people's stories. They are also a couple themselves and getting married later this year, so be sure to congratulate them when you see them. I encourage you to check out their bios and amazing work: https://www.timecapsulemediallc.com/ :)
Hiley Godfrey
Day of Coordinator
(Lu): Hiley is the most supportive, encouraging, and wonderful person to work with. She is a kind and compassionate human being. She has gone above and beyond for us in the wedding planning process and has put so much care and personal attention into making our wedding special for us and all of you. If you have any questions, concerns, or needs on the day of our wedding, she is the woman to help you. :)
