Parents of the Bride
As we get ready to walk Jackie down the aisle, it is hard to sum it all up... the smiles, the tears, the worry, the laughter, the pride, and all the grey hair. From the day she arrived Jackie has been a ray of sunshine, and of course, "in da way". We loved her then, we love her now, and we will love her always. Kodi, please always have that snickers bar ready.
Parents of the Groom
It seems like only yesterday that you came into our lives.It’s hard to believe 28 plus years ago you entered this world, our first born. As the years passed by, we watched you grow into a focused, determined and respectful young man. Remembering back as you were growing up, how inquisitive you were at how things worked. Always examining the workings of rides. Which turned into you reaching for the star’s, with a PHD in Materials Engineering. As you enter the next journey of your life, with the one you love. Remember, it’s a joint adventure of love, laughs, joys, trials and tribulations. There will be mountains to climb and valleys to soar over. We will always love you and we welcome Jackie with open arms into our small family. Words of Wisdom: “Yes, Dear” and Never Go To Bed MAD!
Maid of Honor
Older Sister of the Bride I thought it was fun to have a baby sister - until she came home. I kept putting blankets over her hoping she would disappear. Now we live in different states, but are never far apart.
Best Man
Younger Brother of the Groom Known Kodi since birth. Some would say I'm the better looking, more athletic brother (I'm not here to argue... but I am), and I'm a forced world traveler. Excited to be the shortest next to Jackie and Kodi.
Bridesmaid
Jackie and I met when we were 12 and we've been best friends since. I will always get annoyed when people ask her how tall she is, and she will get equally as annoyed when people ask me to pronounce my name for the 50th time. I can't wait for Kodi to be stuck hearing both of those questions forever too!
Groomsman
I’ve known Kodi since first grade. He moved away in jr. high and I felt like I lost one of my best friends. Since then we've met up on vacations or during the holidays and made some of my favorite memories. I'm so grateful to have friends like Kodi and can’t wait to see what happens next for him and Jackie.
Bridesmaid
I met Jackie my first semester at UNR after running into each other at a frat party, where we were totally sober... we climbed on the roof and talked for a long time as she introduced me to the world of frat guys, UNR and Greek life. We went on to have many classes together, since both of us were Communications majors. One such class being Com 217 argument and debate, and to my recollection she won every debate she was in... good-luck Kodi!
Groomsman
We once had a brofest playing a video game about driving a truck through the mud.
Bridesmaid
We wore white dresses together as sorority sisters, we sold white dresses to other brides, and now I am so proud to be by Jackie's side and help her into the most important white dress of her life.
Groomsman
I met Kodi in lab eight years ago. Two years later, we had our first conversation. It's been aggressively agreeing about nuclear energy and cats ever since.
Officiant
Why not have one of the funniest people you know get ordained on the internet and conduct your ceremony?!
