Wedding Party

Sarah Horst

Maid of Honor

Sarah was instantly my best friend when we met at a college group in 2009, we have been roommates, travel partners, and each others "plus one" for nearly everything ever since!

Shiloh Mininger

Matron of honor

Best buds since birth (well actually, womb). Born in the same year, after a summer in our Mama's belly's side by side. Shiloh and I have been sisters, confidants, and life lesson learners together for 29 years!

Jo Whitmyre

Bridesmaid

Little sister Jo Jo, the last baby to come home to our family and beloved ever since! I couldn't be more proud to be her big sis. She is talented, beautiful, and always makes me laugh!

Beth Whitmyre

Bridesmaid

Big sis! Always responsible and showing me the way. So happy to have her "craftiness", talent, and wisdom throughout the years!

Ashley Otani

Bridesmaid

Worshipping side by side at Yosemite Church has created a beautiful bond that busyness and time has not been able to break. I love her beautiful soul and so glad she has been a constant in my life since meeting and worshipping together.

Liz Shumaker

Bridesmaid

Beautiful mother, sister, and friend! Liz became a staple in my life after meeting her and her family through mutual friends. She has grown into an important mentor role in my life and always bring me such joy!

Cami Shumaker

Junior Bridesmaid

Sweet Cami girl! I have watched her grow up from infant to young girl. She is bright, kind and full of compassion. She is well on her way to becoming a wonderful woman of God! I love getting to be a part of that process as "Auntie Becca".

Bria Shumaker

Flower Girl

Spunky, energetic Bria! Always making me laugh! I have watched her grow from infancy as well! It is such a blessing to have this wonderful ball of energy in my life. She does everything at 110% and at lightning speed.

Isacc Merez

Best Man

Fast becoming best buds. Nathan and Isacc met at YC through mutual friends (the bride and brides best friend, Sarah) but have bonded on their own terms! Through various double dates and guys nights they have come to love and appreciate each others friendship to a masculine degree!

Josh

Groomsman

Matt Shumaker

Groomsman

Matt has been a ministry mentor in my life and big brother protector. Always just a couple of steps ahead in life and ready to help with advice, planning and offerings whenever I am going through something. Matt and Liz quickly become a "couples goal" for both Nathan and I.

Austin Mininger

Groomsman

Austin has become a buddy of Nathan's through family friends and fellowship.

Cavin Shumaker

Junior Groomsman

Brilliant Cavin! Cavin came into my life just before his 3rd birthday! He won me over with his sweet smile and big bear hugs! Now he is becoming a young man, learning how to be a big brother, and protector just like his dad.

Callum Shumaker

Ring Bearer

Callum bug! Since birth this little boy has had my heart. He is the dare devil of his family. He spends his days jumping off of furniture, climbing ladders, and learning how to communicate! He wins us all over with charm and silliness!

Dan and Maureen Horst

Officiant

Filling a very important role in our wedding because they have filled a very important role in my life. Spiritual mentors, "second parents", lawn game competitors! Dan and Maureen have shaped so much of who I am in my adult life! Their love and drive and wisdom has gotten me through many stages of life. And I'm so honored they will be there for this next stage and many more!
