Wedding Party
Emily Jackson
Maid of Honor
Emily and I met in the fall of 2018 at Arkansas Tech University, where we were randomly assigned as roommates. Our friendship quickly developed as we were both pursing our Bachelors degree in Nursing. Emily has been one of the biggest blessings in my life. In 2022 I brought home a 2-week-old baby from my job were I began the foster care journey. Emily never hesitated to step up and become the best aunt (Emmy) to my son, AJ. I can't imagine anyone else standing by my side on this special day. I am so honored to call her my best friend and my maid of honor!
Zach Shows
Best Man
Zach and I met in high school where we played trumpet together in our school's band program. Over the years we have played in band together, marched in college band together, and even formed a rock band today and have played and recorded several songs. Zack and I have not only played music together but have formed a deep friendship over many bowls of Pho. I couldn't imagine marrying the love of my life without Zach Shows by my side as my best man!
Bianca Mansell
Bridesmaid
Bianca and I met in Fall 2019 at ATU where she was randomly assigned as roommates with Emily and I. Our friendship from that very first day has been nothing less than extraordinary. Despite our busy lives and the distance between us, our time together is always filled with laughter and unforgettable memories. I can't imagine my life without Bianca! I am so honored to have her standing by my side on such a memorable day!
Davis Norton
Groomsman
Davis and I met in college as we were both music majors. On our first day of college band as freshmen, I looked at Davis and immediately thought “this is going to be a good friend of mine” and that couldn’t have been more true! We’ve played in many bands together and have forged the best of friendships. I knew that I needed Davis by my side on my wedding day!
Mary McNabb
Bridesmaid
Mary and I met in August 2017 where we both attended church at the former 5th and Greenwich church of Christ. Mary was the first person to speak to me when I first attended this church as a freshman in college. Our friendship took off pretty quickly and 7 years later we still talk every single day. We have such a special bond that is always growing. She is one of my best friends and I am so excited to have her standing beside me on a very special day.
Cody Reeves
Groomsman
Cody and I met when a band I was in needed a drummer. From there, Cody and I have had a really great friendship of playing and listening to music and also have spent many a night playing games and building a close friendship.
