Wedding Party

Best Man

Matron of Honor

I met Taylor our junior year of high school in math class. I was bored in class and we were sitting next to each other so I decided to be “a little” annoying and started copying whatever she was doing. She caught on, so she put her hand in front of her face and, of course I did the same and she proceeded to smack me in the face! I swear it wasn’t mean, we were just a little immature at the time, but we both laughed extremely hard and have been inseparable since! To Taylor and Will, I hope you guys never stop trying to be better for each other! Life will get hard and it will seem stressful at times, but as long as you guys remember it’s you two against the problem and never the two of you against each other, going through those tough moments in life becomes a little bit easier!

I’ve known Will since middle school and we became good friends in high school. He is a great friend and I’m sure he’ll be an even better husband. Congratulations Will and Taylor! Best wishes and God bless!

As the baby sis, I get to say that Taylor may have loved me since I’ve been born, but I’ve loved her my whole life:) haha. A memory of Taylor that I have is a funny one from our childhood! One night at dinner I think there was a thunder storm or something and the family was talking about it, and probably safety precautions to take with lightning. Taylor, super confidently and serious, says something along the lines of, “When there’s lightning, the safest thing to do is go outside and stick your butt up in the air!” The family started laughing and she started to profess the truth in the statement saying she had learned it from the movie Twister. Taylor’s favorite movie growing up was Twister. She LOVED it! Until this situation happened, she had thought that the best thing to do in a lighting storm is go outside and stick your butt up in the air.

Will and I met while playing soccer together. Fun meaningful memory = Will and I created one of the greatest high school video projects for our sophomore year English class. I keep it locked away on a private YouTube account, hit me up if you want the link.

Taylor and I met when she moved into my apartment during our time at USU and we hit it off right away. While living together, my grandma passed away and Taylor told me she'd go to the funeral with me if I needed someone. She ended up going to the viewing, the funeral, and the luncheon with me, and met my (very) large extended family. We'd only been roommates for a month & I knew then that she'd be a friend for life. We were rarely alone, usually spending our time together in one of our rooms, the living room, or out on some weird adventure, and I even brought her to my other family's reunion! If I'm with Taylor, I always know we're going to have a great time. Taylor, from the moment you first told me about Will, I knew that he was different. From the moment I first met him, I knew he was perfect for you. He's everything you deserve and more. Will, from the way Taylor has always talked about you, it's clear that she's always respected you and your character. She loves you truly and deeply, just as I know you do for her. I genuinely could not be happier for you both, I know you've found something special and lasting. I'm so excited to celebrate you both and wish you a life filled with love, adventure, and lots of laughter.

Emily

Bridesmaid

Hello everyone! I’m Emily. I met Taylor when we were both on a mission in San Diego. We were mission companions (best companionship ever tbh). One of my fondest memories with Taylor was when we were knocking doors and the guy inside didn’t really want to talk so we let him be. But he was playing music and we asked if we could stay and listen to the song. So there we were, standing at a strangers door singing and dancing to “Chicken Fried” by Zac Brown Band. After the song ended, we left. Wildly embarrassing for past us but a moment of happiness that we both needed. I’m so happy Taylor and Will found each other. I’m so excited for them and all marriage has in store for them. Love you both xoxo

Simon & Will have been friends since high school. A story that perfectly describes our relationship is when we were hungover and un-showered on like, the second or third day of Firefly at like, 10 am just sitting around, and both of us, while barely functioning, began debating Jefferson vs Hamilton and the legacy of the revolution.

Manda

Bridesmaid

One time Taylor and I went backpacking in the Tetons and that was an experience I’ll never forget. It was so nice to be with nature - to see grandeur peaks and wildflowers, to hear birds and listen to rushing water. It was a magical experience throughout the trail. At one point, Taylor was in front of me and I couldn’t see her. We were making our way up to a meadow that looked pristine. All of a sudden I heard her say urgently “Manda?” I was concerned by her urgency and thought maybe there was a dangerous animal. I worked for a state park that summer and was familiar with the danger of grizzly bears. I’d done trainings on what to do when you encounter any dangerous animal - bears, moose, cougars, wolves. We got bear spray before hand because I am scared of grizzly bears. My heart was racing. “There’s llamas.” Llamas? I quickly made my way up to her. About a foot in front of us, making uncanny eye contact was a big white llama. Staring at us. This was beyond my training. It looked like there were some grazing shepherds camping in the meadow. We laughed, and then turned around to take a different route. Taylor and Will - I’m so happy for you. It’s been so fun to watch how you complement each other’s lives. May wellness and fulfillment be with you on this new journey together! Best wishes in the world. Love to see you love.

Hailey

Bridesmaid

As the brides oldest sister I met her the day she was born. She was the first of many kids who would help me realize my passion and calling for child care. I’m so proud of the woman she has become and all the accomplishments she has made; from her degree in a field she loves to finding a man who pairs so well with her! I am so excited for these two to become family and look forward to all their adventures. -May your love be deep as the ocean, may your worries light as foam. May your days be as many as there are fish in the sea, and may you have joy wherever you roam.-

1. I met Taylor when we worked at Home Depot in 2020 and we just clicked when we spoke for the first time and have been good friends ever since. 2. My favorite memory with Taylor is we decided to take a week long trip to explore Oregon together and it ended up being a complete disaster. We stopped at a cool water fall on the way and as we arrived we saw the mortuary car and found out someone had fallen 100ft then died. Then we didn’t think about how terrible of an idea sleeping in the car was and spent most of the night trying to find a bathroom. Then we lost taylors wallet and drove a few extra hours recovering it just to find it in the car the whole time. Then she fell asleep on the beach for a while and it was just a funny time. We experienced what felt like a 4 day fever dream of driving along the coast and being emotional.

Met Will through mutual friends. Spent time together participating in high school tomfoolery. The most memorable trip was firefly. One of the highlights of my life was enjoying great music with great company.

Mic

Bridesmaid

As Taylor’s younger cousin I have a lot of memories of us growing up. Me being the pesty younger cousin and her being the super cool older cousin. I will never forget the times when Taylor and I decided to play pretend and we had some quite creative minds. One time we pretended we were living back in the Middle Ages. We decided we were gonna spend all day outside churning our own butter, and try to farm. Then there was another time when her and her sisters dressed me up in a their white baptism dress and heels and we played wedding. Then other times we would play dress up and Taylor would do my hair and makeup and we would have a fashion show. Being cousins with Taylor was truly a blessing, together we had such strong imaginations. As we got older Taylor became less of a babysitter and more like my older sister. As she gave me guidance and advice on boys and problems with friends, even though we were states away. Sharing our good news as well as our bad news. I am so grateful that Taylor and I grew up together as cousins, and I’m so glad to have someone so supportive and a such a great influence. I wish her nothing but love and happiness within her marriage. Love, Mic

Will and I met in 3rd grade. In 3rd grade I remember seeing in the corner of my eye will get up to leave class after reading a shark book and faint, it was really funny.
