Wedding Party
Shannon
Maid of Honor
Shan- the sister of a lifetime! I got so lucky when the universe chose her to be my partner in crime. Having grown up together, Shannon and I have had our moments of sibling rivalry but our love for each other never wavered. As we grew older, our friendship became stronger. Shan is truly a blessing of a friend to have. She is there for you when you need her, sees the good in everyone and in every situation and deeply cares about her close friends. She is a true adventure-seeker having lived and visited places all over the world. Shannon is passionate about nursing, her cats and traveling.
Cole
Best Man
As the youngest permanent figure from the University of Miami, Cole’s initiation into saltwater sports began by attaching himself to Trent’s spearfishing and diving interests. As a competent and reliable adventuring buddy, their relationship quickly became defined by the pursuit of new and challenging outdoor skills. Though less reckless than in prior years, Cole is the primary enabler of Trent’s Florida-Man tendencies. Cole is currently a Radiology Healthcare Specialist and enjoys anything outdoors, spending time with his friends, attending music festivals and is a recent newly wed.
Lani
Bridesmaid
As one of my longest childhood friends of nearly 30 years, I can say Lani and I have been through it all together. From elementary school, college, adulthood and everything in between, Lani was there for me every step of the way. She has a true passion for the outdoors, adventure, exercise and nutrition, finding the humor in anything and most importantly, being the best mom to her two kids, Gunnar and Annie. Lani loves the people closest to her and always puts others ahead of herself. She is the definition of a best friend.
Parker
Groomsman
As Trent’s oldest friend and confidant, no one more closely understands the challenges in growing up and navigating life than his sibling. In addition to unconditional support for each other, Parker’s interest in culinary arts, positive cynical humor, and selfless concern for others keep the brothers closer as adults than anyone could hope to be.
Lilly
Bridesmaid
Although Lilly came into my life fairly recently, she has become one of my dearest friends. Lilly embodies selflessness to its core. She is always thinking of ways to make others happy, comfortable, valued and appreciated— often going out of her way for everyone expecting nothing in return. Aside from being a great friend, Lilly loves her animals as much as I do mine. She enjoys hosting and celebrating others, traveling, is up for any adventure or mundane task just to spend time with her friends and she loves being active (working out, playing soccer, etc). Lilly’s energy brightens up any room and those lucky enough to know her get to experience her joy often.
Dustin
Groomsman
Dustin met Trent by joining the fishing club during his Sophomore year at the University of Miami. They bonded when they realized angling and outdoor pursuits were more important in life than the shallow engagements of collegiate social hierarchies. Outside of being a Doctor of Veterinary medicine, dominating technical vet surgery and shooting clay pigeons, he spends most of his free time settling the animal emergencies at TNT Ranch.
Katie
Bridesmaid
Katie and I matched as random roommates through work. She was a new intern with the company and was looking for a place to stay. She showed up at my door as a complete stranger but we very quickly bonded and built a strong friendship. Katie is one of the most kind and thoughtful friends I’ve ever had. Having lived together 3 separate times, she is always attentive to everyone’s needs and space. Katie is always putting others before herself and is up for any adventure too— she even let me put a baby cow in her car to bring to the farm! Katie enjoys anything outdoors, up for any activity, baking/cooking, is passionate about her career and loves a good book by the pool. She is someone you can depend on for life!
Jake
Groomsman
A fellow Pilot currently flying passengers in the Boeing 737. He was assigned to Trent as a student in flight school where his acumen and humor made them fast friends. As a Miami native with a love for boats and fast cars, Trent and Jake remain closely bonded by late nights, a grueling climb into an aviation career, and the constant need to make fun of the world
