Wedding Party
Taylor Hindle
Officiant
Who better to marry us than my partner in crime since 2008? from embarrassing teenage stories to being there for every major moment in life, she has seen it all (and probably knows way too much). So it only feels right that she's the one making this whole thing official. We couldn't imagine saying "I do" without her leading the way- with a few laughs guaranteed along the journey!
April McConnell
Maid of Honor
My Maid of Honor is not only my sister-in-law, but truly my sister at heart. From the moment she came into my life, she welcomed me with love and made me feel like family long before it was official. She’s been a constant source of support, laughter, and encouragement through every step of this journey. I feel so lucky to have her by my side on the most important day of my life, standing not just as family, but as one of my closest friends.
Iram Lacerna
Best Man
Our Best Man has been the groom’s best friend ever since he moved to Mt. Airy as a kid. From wild adventures and crazy stories (most of which are probably best left off the internet!) to the kind of friendship that feels more like family, he’s been there through every high and low. There’s no one else the groom could imagine standing beside him on this day.
Brooke Lindsay
Bridesmaid
This amazing woman came into my life about 8 years ago, but it wasn’t until 4 years ago that we got weirdly close—and I wouldn’t have it any other way. In such a short time, she’s become one of my very best friends, the kind of person I can count on for laughs, honesty, and endless support. I’m so grateful to have her standing by my side on this special day.
Renz Lacerna
Groomsman
Our groomsman may be the Best Man’s brother, but don’t let that fool you—he’s got his own legendary stories with the groom! From childhood antics to grown-up adventures, he’s been there through it all, and we’re thrilled to have him standing by their side on this big day.
Michaela Myrick-Whittaker
Bridesmaid
She’s the kind of friend who popped in and out of my life over the years—but when she came back for good, it was clear she was meant to stay. Somewhere along the way, she went from a familiar face to one of my closest friends, and I can’t imagine this day without her by my side.
Avah McConnell
Flower Girl
One of our two flower girls is our oldest daughter—and if you know her, you know she has a personality that can light up an entire room. She’s bold, funny, full of life, and we have no doubt she’ll make her walk down the aisle unforgettable. Pairing her big energy with her little sister’s sweetness is sure to be one of the highlights of the day.
Dakota McConnell
Flower Girl
Our youngest daughter will be walking down the aisle with her big sister by her side. She may be little, but she’s full of joy, wonder, and sweetness. We know she’ll light up the aisle with her smile and make this moment even more special.
Grayson Rodriguez
Ring Bearer
Our ring bearer holds a very special place in our hearts. He is the bride’s son and now the groom’s stepson, though “step” hardly feels like the right word. Since he was just two years old, the groom has loved and raised him as his own. With his cautious but thoughtful nature, his sweet soul, and his role as a proud big brother, he is sure to make this moment unforgettable as he carries the rings down the aisle.
Kim King
Mother of the Groom
The Mother of the Groom is truly one of the sweetest souls you’ll ever meet. She raised Gabe and his sister with endless love and strength, often on her own, and the bond they share speaks volumes about her heart. From the very first moment, she welcomed the bride into her family with open arms and genuine warmth. Her love, resilience, and kindness have shaped so much of who Gabe is today, and we are beyond grateful to have her by our side as we celebrate this day.
Kevin Downey
Father of the Bride
The Father of the Bride is a strong, kind-hearted man whose love and guidance have shaped his daughter into the woman she is today. His steady support and quiet strength have always been her foundation, and he’s taught her to face life with the same resilience and heart he carries himself. It’s an honor to celebrate this day with him by her side.
