Alison Hinton
Bridesmaid
Ali is my forever friend that gives me endless shit, keeps me humble and makes sure that I never take myself too seriously. Or even serious at all!! Ali pushes me to think big thoughts and press into spaces that make me better. She's also one of my roomies and I am grateful that she does the majority of the dishes, cuz doing the dishes sucks!
Katelyn Winslow
Bridesmaid
Katelyn Schroeder, now Winslow! Kate has been making my life better since 2011 when she sewed the crotch back into my only pair of good jeans that I blew out while dancing on a cruise ship! Katelyn is wise, fierce and a super loyal friend! I am grateful I get to do life along this lady!
Jacob Winslow

Jacob is the guy that always comes in clutch. Need someone to dig a live bullet out of a urinal?? He's your guy! Need a pair of shoes, he will give you his off his feet and move along barefoot! Jacob is loyal and kind and will fight a bear for you! You're damn lucky if you get to be called friend and family by this guy!
Maggie Kendall
Bridesmaid
Maggie and I are going to write a book one day about all of the crazy shit we've been through together. She is a hero and gem! Maggie is one of the best surprise gifts Jesus has ever given me. My life got better when you fell into it Maggs and I am thankful I get to call you one of my main bitches!!
Kelley Watkins
Bridesmaid
Kelley mother freaking Watkins!! Bless you for all the months, weeks, days, hours, minutes and seconds you took out of your daily life to walk through the hardest season of my life with me. You are an incredible friend and I could not thank you enough for all of the ways you have stuck it out with me. Here's to the next season that is hopefully full of awesome vacations with our spouses!
Dan Watkins
Bridesman
Danimal!! My dude!! You are one of my longest friends to date! We've been tearing shit up together since college and we aren't slowing down yet. Thank you for being so ridiculous, hilarious and a straight savage friend!
Jayme Eichler
Bridesmaid
Beautiful friend! Thankful for years of friendship full of phone calls, trips in the car, cruises, Hawaii and many many camp trips loving kids and kicking ass. I am so amazed by you and am grateful for the way you love me and those around you. You show up well my friend. Can't wait to see what this next season brings!
Erin Olinger
Bridesmaid
Erin you have continued to show up in my life well and been a healing person for me. Thank you for being bold and brave. I am proud to call you my friend. Your words, honesty and ridiculous self bless me often. Thanks for years of laughs and showing up well!
Grandma Olson
Matron of Honor
Grandma is a rockstar. She makes me laugh more than anyone else and she's my greatest hero. She has been to every sporting event, every dance, every performance. She was there for anything and everything that was ever important to me. Originally Grandma wanted to be my flower girl, but I felt like she was more important than that. So she'll be the one standing closest to me on my big day, continuing to be my biggest fan.
Dallas Lyons
Bridesmaid
Dally is my Canadian best friend with the cutest accent...and face. We've been friends my whole life and she holds a very special place in my heart. She is the most beautiful person inside and out. Even though she lives over a thousand miles away, I consider her more of a sister. She's getting married a month before me and planning our weddings together has been one of my favorite parts of this engagement season!
Katie Walker
Bridesmaid
Oh my Katie Kat. Memories of college years flash before my eyes. Katie and I lived together and played softball together for 3 years at NCU and we were inseparable. Fun fact: we couldn't stand each other when we first met! We were hesitant to move in together, but it ended up being the best decision I ever made in college. She got me through everything. We laughed together (so much) and cried together and won together and lost together. Living without her has been a huge adjustment and I really do miss her every day. But she's been supportive throughout this whole process and I'm so excited to have her standing next to me.
Heath Boyles
Bridesman
My dear brother is the biggest pain in my butt and my best friend at the same time. We are complete opposites, but he also understands me better than anyone. He's picking fights with me 90% of the time, but the other 10% is spent reminding me of my value and loving me unconditionally. He has a hard exterior, but he's really the biggest softy. He's had my back my whole life and I know I can get through anything with him by my side. Words could not describe how much it means to me that he is choosing to stand next to me on my wedding day.
Lorissa Warren
Bridesmaid
Lolo is my friend first and my brother's girlfriend second. Often times we joke we are the same person. I mean we share a birthday for goodness sakes! We also joke that neither of us could survive the craziness of my family without each other. We share the same love for cotton candy blizzards and cute tattoos. She's crazy gorgeous and has a heart of gold. I felt like she was a sister from the first day we met. We're the good girls who are wild at heart and we stick together.
Kendall Mackey
Bridesmaid
Kendall just became a nurse and I'm so gosh dang proud!! She's that friend that I want to be around all the time just because I want to be more like her. She's such a positive light in my life and brings me so much joy. Kendall and I haven't been friends for long, but we've already walked through so much life together. She was there for a lot of the hard days and I am so thankful for the love she has poured out to me. Having someone who can relate can make all the difference, and she's that person for me. I can't wait to see how our friendship continues to grow.
Myrlene Carson
Bridesmaid
Mer and I joke that we're those friends that "have absolutely nothing in common besides the fact that we love each other so much". For as long as I can remember, she's been there. She's moved a lot in the time we've known each other and nothing ever changed. She's the person I knew I could pour my heart out to, unfiltered. Sometimes we run in different circles, but she has always been there for me and that's what has made our friendship so special. I truly feel like she is the definition of love and that she is an absolute gift to the world.
Kandace Furlong
Bridesmaid
I just laughed out loud at all the things I could say about Kan. She is by far the funniest person I know. She made my junior year of softball the best it could have been. Every road trip was an adventure. She was always there to pick me up after a bad game and cheer me up with funny accents. She taught me how to be raw and open with my feelings and encouraged me to love deeply. She has always been a safe space for me. My cheeks always hurt from smiling after spending time with her.
Amy Moore
Bridesmaid
I feel like mine and Amy's relationship has been a crazy fun rollercoaster. We were best friends all growing up. We experienced love and heartbreak and growth and change together. Unintentionally, we grew apart after high school. I knew I missed her like crazy and when we reconnected, I realized she never left. Her outpouring of support gave me life. I am in love with the people we've grown to be and the beauty of our lives and friendship. This day wouldn't be complete without her.
Brock Clement
Bridesman
Kind. Fun. Creative. Adventure. Artist. Beautiful. Real. Family. LOVE. These are just a few words that come to mind when I think of Brock. Brock is my cousin that I recently reconnected with. It didn't take us long to catch up on our whole lives and become best friends. I always joke that he is the coolest person I know...but he really is. Because he's a traveler and a photographer, I get to see so much of the world through his eyes. I feel so lucky to experience life with him. He's constantly teaching me knew things and inspiring me to be a better person.
Corazón and Juliet Adler
Flower Girls
Janieve nannied Cora and Juliette last summer and has continued to babysit them as much as possible. These two beautiful little girls bring so much joy into her life. They are so full of love and energy and they are a huge blessing in both of our lives. We love them dearly and are so thankful to watch them grow and learn about all of life's adventures.
Tim Johnson
Officiant
Tim has been the definition of a pastor and a friend to us. He has pursued and invested in us as individuals and as a couple. He continues to seek opportunities to invite us in, grow in our giftings and create space for us to learn and heal. Tim and the church of 5th Avenue have been a sanctuary for us. We wouldn't be here today without that space!
Calvin Anderson
Bringer of Magic
Janieve and I both knew Calvin separately and now as a couple he has been one of our most cherished friendships along with his beautiful wife Annie. Calvin blesses us regularly with his loving presence and intentional friendship.
Jenna Laver
Day of Coordinator
Jenna is what we like to call a "Tauna Whisperer", aka she can harness the ridiculousness that is Tauna. She is talented, creative and an incredible friend. We are beyond blessed and so lucky to have Jenna as one of our day of coordinators for the day of our wedding. We know that we will be in good hands!
Ashlyn Gohl
Day of Coordinator
Ashlyn is also what we like to call a "Tauna Whisperer"! Ashlyn is patient, creative and such an amazing friend. She is taking time out of her own life of adventures and becoming a doctor (nbd) to help coordinate our wedding. We could not be more lucky than to have people like Ashlyn in our life.
