Wedding Party
Vanessa
Bride

She’s at her happiest surrounded by laughter, family, and the people she loves most.

Vanessa is beyond excited to begin this next chapter surrounded by the people who helped shape her along the way.
Jacob
Groom
Jacob is loyal, steady, and effortlessly funny! Jacob is the kind of person who makes life feel easy and grounded.

From years of friendship and shared memories to building a life with Vanessa, Jacob has always valued connection, loyalty, and laughter above all else. He’s ready and excited to start this next chapter surrounded by his closest friends and family as he marries his best friend.
Lauren
Maid of Honor
Vanessa’s spunky cousin and lifelong sidekick. From growing up side-by-side to becoming true grown-ups, Lauren has always been there through every stage of life. Craft nights, crystal collecting, and nonstop laughs; she’s been the constant partner-in-crime Vanessa couldn’t do life without.
Lexy
Bridesmaid
Vanessa’s cousin and the "big-sister" she never had. Lexy has always led the way in life, from cheer days to trying helping Vanessa become a nurse (respectfully… no thanks!). Vanessa wouldn’t want to walk into this day without Lexy's love, guidance, and steady presence.
Rachel
Bridesmaid
Vanessa’s cousin and her built-in “One Direction duo” from the very beginning. Rachel has always brought fun, laughter, and light energy into Vanessa’s life, making every memory a little louder and a lot more joyful. It wouldn't be a perfect event without Rachel by her side to keep her smiling!
Faith
Bridesmaid
Vanessa’s high school friend turned sister-in-law; what a journey! From meeting as friends to becoming family, Faith has been part of one of the most meaningful transformations in Vanessa’s life. Now celebrating this day together as family makes it even more special.
Melissa
Bridesmaid
A best friend who has been there through shopping trips, endless laughs, and even a few “almost disasters.” Melissa played a big role in helping bring Vanessa’s proposal to life and has been a constant source of love, excitement, and support ever since. A true “love of love” kind of friend.
Jillian
Bridesmaid
One of Vanessa’s close friends from the very beginning of their friendship. Their bond has only grown stronger over the years, filled with shared stories, laughter, and inside jokes. Jillian is Vanessa’s minimalistic, numerology-loving bestie and a forever kind of friend.
Matthew
Best Man
Jacob’s younger brother and lifelong wingman. Matthew has always had his back and played a huge role in Jacob’s life growing up. Now standing beside him on one of the biggest days of his life, it wouldn’t feel complete without him there.
Vaughn
Groomsman
Vanessa’s younger brother. Quiet, artistic, and protective, Vaughn has grown from a shy kid into someone strong, caring, and steady. Watching him grow has been a gift, and having him stand up there means everything.
Victor
Groomsman
Vanessa’s brother and one of the toughest-looking people with the biggest heart. They may have clashed hard growing up, but that bond only strengthened over time. Now, it’s all love (and a little bit of sibling sarcasm).
Vincent
Groomsman
Vanessa’s brother and Faith’s husband; her built-in best friend for life. From Nintendo nights to life’s biggest milestones, Vincent has always been there. Having him stand beside them on this day is exactly where he belongs.
Zach
Groomsman
Friend of both Vanessa and Jacob, and part of many shared memories over the years—from small moments to big life events. Zach has been a steady, familiar presence through it all, and his friendship has meant a lot to both of them.
Bryce
Groomsman
Bryce has been one of Jacob's closest friends since they were just 12 years old. From childhood adventures and countless memories to life's biggest milestones, Bryce has been there through it all. The two have grown up side by side, and there was never a question that Bryce would be standing beside Jacob on one of the most important days of his life. Over the years, Bryce has become just as much Vanessa's friend, creating a friendship built on playful banter, inside jokes, and nonstop laughter. From kids dreaming about the future to celebrating this incredible new chapter, Bryce has been a constant. Jacob simply couldn't imagine this day without his lifelong best friend by his side.
