Sara & Jonathan
Wedding Party
Emma Marshall
Matron of Honor
Emma & I have been friends since middle school when we re-met in youth group and found out we were going to the same high school (we knew each other in elementary school). We've been through everything from high school and riding the bus together for 4 years, to family vacations, and long distance friendship that has never changed no matter how its been since we last talked. Emma will forever be my first ginger friend who stole my soul- ask her which one of her freckles is me ;)

Roommates with Jonathan. Avid game designer and water lover. Straightest back posture!
Beth Fredericks
Bridesmaid
Beth & I met the first week of freshman year at George Mason Univeristy through InterVarsity. Sara joined Beth's small group and the rest is history. We bonded over rom-coms, bachelor nights, and coffee shops. She and Mark (the best man) are our go to double dates. Beth is my favorite person to find a new coffeeshop to check out with and sit for hours having life-giving conversations.

Elizabeth Grieve

Elizabeth and I also met the first week of freshman year at George Mason University and quickly became friends. We were gym buddies, in the same small group, and were both CoCos (on the exec team for IV). Elizabeth has been one of my most constant friends who is alway ready with a big hug and sweet encouragement.

Lauren and I officially met the end of freshman year at GMU when we were paired up to be small group leaders together- and then spent the next 3 years leading together.

Some of my favorite college memories include her- beach trips, late night planning sessions, and singing loudly to disney songs on road trips to various conferences.
