Maid of Honor
Megan moved in next door in 2000 and we've have been best friends ever since! Our backyards in the 'ville still have a walking path between them to this day! Meg and I lived together for 4 years in Chicago. We could pass as sisters with our Type A personalities, love for organizing and schedules and dog mom life! Megan has been there for me through it all and always one step ahead with best advice, may it be applying for colleges, adult jobs and now wedding planning!
Best Man
Ev has been the best brother and friend for 28 years. Anyone else have a little brother that's better than you at everything? We've gone from diapers to me getting married and Ev becoming a dad. It's only fitting he is my best man on the big day.
Bridesmaid
Olivia is Kam's youngest sibling! She lives in KC and was very quick to welcome me into the Ledford family! Liv is the best cat mom to Sushi and Luigi. She is also a teacher and cares so much for all her students. I can't wait for more family outing and trips to KC in the future!
Groomsman
What's better than one brother? Two! Drew is someone you always want to have around. Looking forward to some more trips out to Colorado with the family in the future!
Bridesmaid
Court and I swam together since we were 9 years old and went on to swim against each other in college. We both still love to work out (just sticking to 'dry land' now), having playdates with our dog children, Bruce and Fripp, or being bandwagon Chiefs fans courtesy of our fiancés! We will give Courtney and Royce the much deserved credit for introducing us at McGees years ago!
Groomsman
Royce & I have been close friends ever since we met. Cut from the same cloth as we always say. We're both true sons of Missouri, and big fans of the Chiefs and Tigers. Royce played a big part in my move up to Chicago, which led to me meeting Allie.
Bridesmaid
Cara joined Fox swim team when she was 10 and we quickly became friends! Cara keeps all of us organized, on schedule, carpooled and fed as the designated 'Mom'. Cara has always been there for me and offers great advice, helps DIY'ing the next project or trying find to a bargain deal! Not to mention she has an appetizer for every occasion or always down for a pasta night out in the city!
Groomsman
Joey D! My longest friendship outside of family. From Rec hoops in high school, to college roommates, to both getting married in 2024... We've been through a lot together! Joe is also the only person I know who stresses out over regular season Chiefs games as much (or more) as I do.
Bridesmaid
Swimming also brought Kris into my life over 20 years ago (thanks, Fox)! Kris is always down as long as her busy Doctor schedule isn't holding her back, may it be a chill girls night or a night out after she worked a 24 hour shift. Kris puts us all to shame with endless hobbies... if you need an actress, painter, musician, DIY'er, party planner, cat-climbing-wall-builder or off the books medical advice she is our girl! Keep on saving lives, Kris!
Groomsman
Another Mizzou Tiger alum (sensing a pattern here?), Matt is the definition of a dependable friend. He's always there if you need him, and you can bet he'll hold you accountable. Maybe the only person who hasn't silenced my apple fitness workout notifications!
Bridesmaid
It is safe to say I have pools and an obsession with dogs in common with all my favorite people... Rob and I had a quick stint as waterpolo opponents in high school but have become soul sistas since both living in Chicago! Our in-house comedian Rob keeps us laughing every day and we are still waiting for her stand up act or podcast to become a reality. Rob is another fellow dog mom workin' hard every day so Sully can live that lux life.
Groomsman
D-town! Another son of Missouri. A roommate of mine for most of our college years. Once he finally woke up from his 15 alarms in the morning, you could find him carrying our squad in pickup hoops at the rec, or making toasts before shots at football tailgates. Although we don't see each other as much anymore (he is a father of two after all), once we're together, it's like no time has passed.
