Taylor & Timothy
Wedding Party
Sarrah Arvesen
Matron of Honor
Taylor’s sister — the matron of honor with the patience of a saint, the energy of a toddler on a juice box, and somehow still the sweeter sister (allegedly). Assistant principal by day, full-time sports mom and chaos coordinator by night. If she’s not cheering on Harlow from the sidelines, she’s chasing Maverick and Harper while making it all look effortless. She’s been Taylor’s built-in role model for as long as she can remember — the kind of mom, leader, and human everyone hopes to be. Somehow she balances endless responsibilities with endless love, and we truly don’t know how she does it all… but we are convinced caffeine and pure determination are involved.
Andy Hynek
Best Man
Andy Hynek — Tim’s best friend of 25+ years, professional vacationer, and somehow still the first one on scene for every police call. A true beach bum fueled almost entirely by honeybuns, caffeine, and pure chaos. If there’s one thing we all collectively enjoy, it’s roasting Andy — mostly because he makes it so easy. But underneath the nonstop jokes is the kind of friend everyone hopes to have: loyal, dependable, and always the first person to have your back no matter what. Whether he’s answering a call, planning his next trip, or surviving solely on gas station snacks, Andy has been a constant in Tim’s life for decades — and there’s nobody better to stand beside him on our wedding day.
Harlow June
Bridesmaid
Harlow June — Taylor’s original baby, her A1 since day 1, and somehow already tall enough to make the rest of us look vertically challenged in photos. She’s equal parts athlete, big sister, and human sunshine. Whether she’s dominating on the court, making everyone laugh, or loving on Harper and Maverick, she does everything with kindness and a heart rooted deeply in faith. Harlow has been impossible not to love from the very beginning — truly love at first sight. She’s stunning inside and out, effortlessly cool, and one of the sweetest souls you’ll ever meet. Watching her grow into the incredible young woman she’s becoming makes Taylor so proud and so unbelievably lucky to be her aunt.
Carter Welsch
Groomsman
Carter — the guy who’s always down for a good time and somehow unintentionally steals the show while doing absolutely nothing extra. A loving husband, great dad, and one of the best role models the kids could ask for, Carter is the kind of genuinely good person everyone gravitates toward. He can always be counted on, whether it’s for a laugh, a dance floor appearance, or moral support during complete chaos. Speaking of dancing… Carter’s moves are truly one of a kind — especially during his legendary karaoke performance of Tequila, where both the lyrics and dance moves are kept to an absolute minimum. Effortlessly hilarious without even trying, Carter is always the life of the party in the most laid-back way possible.
Jackie Morford
Bridesmaid
Jackie Morford — one of Taylor’s best friends, Lily’s biggest fan, and the woman responsible for feeding half the town at any given moment. If Jackie isn’t at one of Eliza’s sporting events or planning her next Disney adventure, she’s probably at home making something that belongs on a cooking show. She’s the kind of mom and wife that is endlessly devoted. (Don’t talk to her about her daughter graduating though, she might start crying!) Her house is basically the official headquarters for Halloween and the 4th of July, and if your kid walks through her front door, there’s a 99% chance they’re getting spoiled. She helped Taylor through one of the hardest seasons of life, and they have been friends ever since!
Nick Morford
Groomsman
Nick Morford — one of Tim’s best friends and a proud supporter of old fashioneds and absolute nonsense. Somehow he willingly joins Tim in tolerating the nonstop yapping from Taylor and Jackie, which honestly deserves recognition all by itself. Every 4th of July, Nick transforms into a full-blown pyrotechnics specialist, putting on a fireworks show that somehow remains both legendary and OSHA-questionable — yet impressively, he still has all 10 fingers and toes. Nick is effortlessly hilarious, quick-witted without even trying, and the kind of guy who can make an entire room laugh with one comment. Equal parts chaos and charm, he’s always a good time and always someone you’re glad is around.
Anna Hernandez
Bridesmaid
Anna — one of Taylor’s best friends, her daily dose of laughing, and her lifelong partner in nonstop yapping. What started with her teaching Lily in 2nd grade somehow turned into hours-long conversations every single day, endless girls nights, and an unhealthy level of excitement anytime Pitbull comes on. She’s hilarious, stunning, empathetic, and the kind of ride-or-die friend everyone hopes to have in life. Anna & Taylor can laugh for hours over absolutely nothing, workout together daily, text for hours each day, and somehow still never run out of things to talk about. She’s the kind of genuinely lovely human who makes life lighter, funnier, and better just by being in it — and getting to raise their kiddos alongside each other has been one of the greatest gifts.
Billy Richardson
Groomsman
Billy — Tim’s younger brother, outdoorsman extraordinaire, and the guy most likely to disappear into the woods and come back with a fish story that gets slightly bigger every time he tells it. When he’s not hunting, fishing, or serving as a volunteer fireman, he’s busy telling the most random jokes known to mankind — which Lily has made it a mission to learn and then proudly performs for absolutely anyone willing to listen. Billy is the perfect mix of laid-back and unintentionally hilarious.
Lily Richardson
Junior Bridesmaid
Lily — the hilarious, creative, nonstop-talking heart of Tim and Taylor’s world. If there’s gossip to be gathered, adults talking nearby, or a joke waiting to be told, Lily is already ten steps ahead. She can make friends with absolutely anyone, go with the flow in any situation, and somehow turn even the most ordinary moment into a full-blown comedy show. Equal parts artistic, dramatic, and wonderfully clumsy, Lily keeps life entertaining at all times — usually while tripping over absolutely nothing in the process. She’s endlessly kind, incredibly funny, and always wanting to make the people she loves proud. Whether she’s cracking jokes, creating something artistic, or inserting herself into grown-up conversations she absolutely should not be part of, Lily brings joy, laughter, and a whole lot of personality everywhere she goes.
Maverick Arvesen
Ring Security
Maverick — our tiny but mighty Ring Security enforcer, dinosaur expert, and full-time ball of chaos. Loud, wild, rough-and-tough, and 100% all boy. Maverick can usually be found wrestling, playing baseball, or explaining dinosaur facts with the confidence of a college professor. His dad is his idol, and honestly, he’s becoming his mini-me more every day. He’s the sweetest little brother to Harlow, the ultimate wrestling opponent for Harper, and somehow both the toughest and most sensitive guy in the room all at once. Between the dreamiest blue eyes, the cutest smile, and a laugh that can make anyone crack up instantly, Maverick keeps life loud, hilarious, and full of energy — and he takes his ring security duties very, very seriously.
Harper Arvesen
Flower Girl
Harper Rome — our flower girl and tiny tornado wrapped in pink and attitude. Petite but powerful, Harper is equal parts sweet, sassy, hilarious, and completely chaotic in the most lovable way possible. One minute she’s wrestling Maverick like she’s training for the WWE, and the next she’s being completely girly with Harlow like the princess she also believes she is. She’s strong-willed, tough as nails, and absolutely ornery when she wants to be — basically a mini version of her mama, Sarrah, with extra sparkle and even more opinions. Harper keeps everyone on their toes, makes every room louder and more fun, and somehow manages to steal hearts while causing complete mayhem at the exact same time.
Leo Welsch
Ring Security
Leo — Part of our Ring Security Team and full-time entertainer. Equal parts spunky, hilarious, and lovable. A devoted fan of scary movies, fruit snacks, and M&M’s, Leo keeps everyone laughing everywhere he goes. He’s the absolute spitting image of his daddy, which means we already know trouble is part of the package. One of the sweetest things about Leo is how excited he gets every single time he sees Lily — like it’s the best day ever, every time.
