Hannah & Jacob
Wedding Party
Erin
Maid of Honor
Best friends from the ripe age of four, Hannah and Erin have done it all together. From pretending their bikes were horses and racing through the neighborhood to navigating college and exciting post-grad plans, these two have championed their friendship throughout their entire walk of life.
Gabe
Best Man
It's a tough world when competing for the "favorite son" title in the Sheppard household. Gabe champions over his brother in two of life's most essential things, though: height and Super Smash Bros.
Lily
Bridesmaid
It's the 4th of July and Jacob just asked Hannah to be his girlfriend. "I said yes!" Hannah gushed only seconds later. "I know, I'm sitting right next to you... I can hear everything!" says Lily. She may have expressed an ample amount of "YUCK" for the dude stealing her best friend's attention, but Lily has been the trooper third wheel ever since.
Jonathan
Groomsman
Brother of the bride and expert guacamole chef. Hannah is lucky to have grown up with a built-in best friend who sets a high standard for any guy around. Whether he's dunking on the basketball court or whipping up a deliciously creative dish, JT is the realest deal and a great spice of life!
Violet
Bridesmaid
Violet is the ultimate backpacking buddy! Having worked with Jacob at Snowbird Wilderness Outfitters in the summer of 2019, Hannah and Violet hit it off while traversing the backcountry of North Carolina, surviving off of dehydrated noodles and peanut butter tortilla rolls. Violet also played a special role in capturing the couple's big engagement moment on top of West Virginia's stunning Seneca Rock!
Abbott
Groomsman
If his impressive beard, peach preserves, joyful spirit, and hardy backpacking skills didn't earn him a seat at the table, then surely his guitar pickin' did. Strumming "Can't Help Falling in Love" on the edge of a 1,000-foot cliff while Jacob proposes to Hannah is not a task for just anyone, you know. Wingman level: 10,000. Abbott will also play the special song when the bride walks down the aisle. Grab your tissues, everyone!
Ashton
Bridesmaid
Ashton entered the Turley's lives as Jonathan's girlfriend. The first time she was introduced, Hannah was stunned by Ashton's bright, smiley eyes and promptly informed JT, "She's way prettier than me... I approve." She has since been a welcome addition to the family and an essential part of the girl gang!
Eli
Groomsman
Eli and Jacob have been best friends since childhood. These two have enjoyed a lifetime of fishing, kayaking, gaming, baseball, and goofing-off together. It's always a good time with this crew!
Willow
Bridesmaid
Willow and Hannah have never had much luck camping together. The first trip ended in sunburns and towing Hannah's car out of a ditch. The second ended with sleeping in said car after deciding their campsite was too soaked and freezing. Nevertheless, Willow is a soul that's easy to enjoy all sorts of adventures and laugh through life's funny calamities with.
Andy
Groomsman
Andy is undeniably better at Jacob in one crucial area: tearing it up on the dance floor. In fact, one of Hannah's first memories of Andy was being impressed by his killer moves at Jacob's senior prom. Cupid Shuffle, anyone?
Destiny
Bridesmaid
If you've ever belted "Country Roads" among a large crowd, you'll know how transcending that good ol' West Virginian pride can be. From boot stompin' at the beach to sun soakin' at the lake to pizza stuffed sleepovers, Hannah is convinced that Destiny is her long-lost mountain mama soul sister.
Mason
Groomsman
Mason is the epitome of a faithful friend. His 4th grade beard and responsible nature dubb him the most mature in the friend group. He and Jacob have enjoyed traveling to Colorado together, taking 'yakin trips, and playing football throughout most of their lives.
