Wedding Party

Olivia Burton

Maid of Honor

When I think of the first time me and Allysha ever crossed paths, was a story I’ve been told by Michelle (our mom) hundreds of times. I was just a baby when Allysha wanted to keep me forever. Little did she know years later, I’d be a part of her life everyday when our parents got together. We didn’t really like each other at first, but as we got older we got extremely close. Every Thursday night we’d have our “sister night.” We became inseparable. Allysha is considered a true friend in my eyes and definitely one of my best friends. She is the type of friend that will be honest with you, no matter how brutal. She is reliable & kind with a beautiful soul. I’m truly so happy she found the love & happiness she deserves. I am so grateful to be her Maid-of Honor on their special day.

Jeff Casey

Best Man

I first met Dukie when I was about 6, and we had just moved in next door. I think the story goes something along the lines of he was playin in the dirt in his yard, and I came over. He told me he had a dump truck in his garage, like the toy he was playing with. I thought it was awesome as hell and cool. We ended up spending what felt like every summer day together for years after, even after I found out he lied to me about the dump truck. He is the best friend I ever can and will have, and I would go to the end of the world if he asked me to. Even though our friendship started on a lie, atleast it was a cool one, ha!

Allysha & I got to know each other on our rides to & from volleyball my freshman year & her junior year of high school. Allysha has become one of my very best friends & someone i can always turn to. Through many years of drama, boys, & major life changes, we’ve seen it all. It’s been such an adventure watching her go from the volleyball court, all the way through college, into motherhood, and now marriage. I’m excited to watch her grow as a Sturtevant!

I am marrying Brandon's best man, Jeff, at the end of this year. So of course, Allysha and I have found ourselves in the same room time and time again! We quickly became friends and haven't looked back. Through the ladies nights, friends-givings, and spur of the moment lake days, Allysha and I have laughed our way through the last few years. It's been amazing to see their relationship and family grow over the last two years!

Brandon and I used to not like eachother in middle school until we found out we both liked to wakeboard. We went together once in a horrible rain storm and basically loved with eachother ever since.

Clarissa Blick

Bridesmaid

Allysha and I met our freshman year of college at Ashford University. In our time there, we went from teammates to besties to roommates in the blink of an eye and I wouldn’t change a thing! I’m so excited Allysha found the man of her dreams and I am honored to stand by her side on her special day.

Groomsman

I met Brandon in middle school football but we didn’t become good friends until senior year. Over the course of the next couple years we got a lot closer and before I knew it I had a best friend for life. He’s helped me through a lot of tough times and he’s a friend without compare.

Mariah Aldis

Bridesmaid

I’ve known Allysha for almost two years. We met after I started talking to Brandon’s roommate at the time, Marshall. I came to the house in Riverview to hang out with the guys and Allysha was there with Brandon. With her being the girl of the house, I was nervous because her opinion meant a lot to Marshall. I was greeted with her infectious smile and felt immediately comfortable. Allysha and I quickly formed an alliance in this house full of goofballs and that alliance grew into an incredible friendship. Even though we have grown in our individual relationships with our men and so much has changed over the past two years, our friendship has only grown with us. I’m so honored to continue to be apart of her journey in becoming a Sturtevant!

Marshall Benters

Groomsman

I’ve known Buddy for about 13 years or so. Growing up we chatted here and there during sports and school. We fell in love our junior year of high school on the school bus going to AVC. We had the same interest,.. butts, boobs, fixing things and cool trucks. We went together like peas and carrots. As time went on our friendship didn’t fade. I moved in with Brandon and Trevor a year or so after we graduated. We had many good times. Then Wylin kicked Trevor and I out of the house. Proud uncle right here. THE END

Cassidy Rice

Bridesmaid

Allysha and I have been friends since the second day she moved here. We have always been there for each other no matter what. We have literally grown up together, Allysha is more of a sister to me than a friend. She is my friend soulmate. I can't wait to celebrate her special day with her.

Brandon Anderson

Groomsman

I met Brandon through sports as our dads worked together and started coaching. Brandon and I really became friends when he chose to take me on the river rather then hangout with a girl. He asked his dad what he should do and his dad said I would be his friend forever the girl wont be anything, but a young relationship. We’ve been close ever since.

Abby Maike

Bridesmaid

Allysha and I have been friends since middle school. We met through sports! We have played volleyball and basketball together since 7th grade. We even met our basketball idol, Skylar Diggins, together. Allysha has always been one of my good friends and a person I can count on. She comes from a wonderful family as well.
