Wedding Party
Ms. Christi Maude
Bridesmaid
Christi Maude has been one of my dearest friends since college. From her days traveling the world as a backup singer for James Brown to the countless memories we've shared over the years, her friendship has been a true gift. Through the greatest joys and deepest sorrows, Christi has remained a constant source of love, strength, and encouragement. A faithful prayer warrior, she stood beside me through some of my darkest moments, and I am incredibly blessed to have her by my side on this special day!!
Ms. Christy Zachow
Bridesmaid
Christy Z. has been my treasured friend for over 40 years now, which means we have shared a lifetime of memories, adventures, laughter, tears and stories that probably shouldn't be repeated in public. Through the highest of highs and lowest of lows, Christy has remained one of the most faithful, loyal and loving people in my life. She has a gift for making me laugh no matter the circumstances, even if its so NOT appropriate to laugh. Her friendship is one of life's greatest blessings, and I am so honored to have her standing beside me on this special day.
Rebecca (Becca) Vaught
Bridesmaid
Becca came into my life over 20 years ago, and from the moment we met, we formed a bond that has only grown stronger with time. Through every season of life--the celebrations, the challenges, the heartbreaks, and the victories--Becca has been a constant source of love, strength and unwavering support. She is the friend who never hesitates and would drop everything and show up at 2am if I needed her. Her loyalty, kindness and selfless heart has carried me through some of life's most difficult moments. Over the years, she has become so much more than a friend, she is family. I cannot imagine this chapter of my life without her standing beside me, and I am forever grateful for the blessing of her friendship.
Dede Thurmond
Bridesmaid
Dede Thurmond has been part of my story for as long as I can remember. In fact, one of my very first childhood memories is taking swimming lessons at her mother's pool when I was just five years old. Although life took us in different directions for a season after high school, I truly believe some friendships are meant to find their way back home. Reconnecting over a decade ago was one of life's sweetest gifts. Since then, we have shared countless traveling adventures, many laughter filled road trips, heart-to-heart conversations, and memories I will cherish forever. Dede has been a steady source of friendship, joy, and encouragement. As we've both found love again, and prepare for this new chapter, I am especially grateful for Dede. She never had a sister, and I believe God knew we were meant to be dear friends instead. Having her stand beside me on this day means more than words can express, and I thank God for the gift of friendship every single day.
