Savannah & Wesley
Wedding Party
Greg Crosby
Father of the Bride
My Dad has forever been an incredible example of God's love to myself and my family. He has read more books, traveled to more places, drank more coffee and loved more fiercely than anyone I have ever met. He can answer any question, solve any problem, and fix anything...seriously! He is well-deserving of all of those #1 Dad mugs and keychains that he got for every occasion. I am honored to be his daughter and I cannot wait to walk arm and arm with him down the aisle on November 7th.
Susan Crosby
Mother of the Bride
My Mama has the biggest heart of anyone I know. She has given everything for me so that I could chase the desires of my heart. She sat through hours of piano & singing lessons, dance practices, basketball & softball games, track meets and band rehearsals selflessly and supportively. She has walked by my side and supported every decision I have made and has continued to do so during wedding planning! She's the greatest encourager, motivator, and mom!
Melissa Peden
Mother of the Groom
From my earliest memories, Mom has exampled beauty, faithfulness, passion, and God-honoring parenthood. Her example of glorious womanhood has shown me that marriage will only take me from glory to glory. I am so glad to honor her when marrying Savannah.
Bobby Peden
The Late Father of the Groom
Dad is my Honorary Best Man. If he were here, he'd say, "Son, you're marrying above yourself," with a smile on his face. While I wish he was here to witness and celebrate, he is a part of a much better congregation, where he is witnessing and worshiping the infinite King of beauty.
Noah Cox
Best Man
Noah is my true, spiritual brother. It was God's power through him which led me to utterly surrender to Christ as Lord. In addition to this, he introduced me to Savannah! It only makes sense to involve him as my Best Man in the fulfillment of that introduction.
Jay Warren
Groomsman
Jay is my oldest friend. His passion for worshiping the God of the universe manifests itself in the way he loves others and how he has treated me as a friend and spiritual brother. I'm so grateful that this faithful friend will be standing with me on Nov. 7th!
John Mark Vincent
Groomsman
Though I've only known John Mark for 2 years, he has shown true brotherly love to me as if I had known him my whole life. We've walked through engagement together and, I pray, will walk through the rest of life together in service to our great God.
Jacob Miller
Groomsman
Both in heavy discussion and 1am Cook Out runs, Jacob's loyalty to me as a friend reflects the loyalty which he has for Jesus Christ and His global Church. He's a brother, and I look forward to standing with him when I marry Savannah.
Robert Peden
Groomsman
Robert has portrayed the phrase "through thick and thin" in our brotherhood. I always know that he will love me and be there for me, and Nov. 7th will not be an exception to that.
Austin Peden
Groomsman
Austin's (right) faithfulness exhibits true care and manhood. I have looked up to him in so many ways over the years. In the way he has loved his family, I strive to imitate with Savannah. I'm grateful that he will be standing with me on Nov. 7th.
Emma Rogers
Maid of Honor
Emma is best described by moments in time that you cannot find the words for. Her friendship feels like watching a sunset from a mountain top or by traveling across the globe at a moment's notice. She is kind, she is fearless and resilient, and she is the strongest person I have ever met. She reminds me of the color yellow and the familiarity of my favorite latte order. She loves Jesus infinitely and she passionately pursues him in every endeavor. I am blessed to know her and even more so to have her stand by my side!
Meredith Dunavant
Maid of Honor
Meredith was my first roommate in college and my first encounter with someone who's life shared the Gospel more than their words did. She taught me so much about the Lord and his faithfulness during our time together. I have so many wonderful memories of her leading someone to Christ in our dorm room, or coming back to the room ecstatic to share the way that she saw the Lord working in her life. Our sisterhood in Christ has blossomed into a friendship that will last a lifetime and I am honored to be a part of her life story!
Makaeya Vincent
Bridesmaid
I'm convinced that Makaeya can be looked up in the dictionary and met with the synonyms kind-hearted, gentle, generous, and trustworthy. She is a true example of a Proverbs 31 woman! I have had the honor of walking through the season of engagement with her and she has loved me so well during this time. She is a prayer warrior, a fantastic listener, and when I look at her, I see Jesus. She is the type of friend that I prayed for years for. The Lord is so faithful!
Courtney Crosby
Bridesmaid
Courtney was my very first friend and the very first person that I ever told about Wesley. At two years old, you could not convince us that we were not twins. We spent every moment together and it was our matching jean Barbie jackets and us against the world. She has been a rock in my life and has always been there for me when I needed her the most. Her loyalty and kindness is unmatched and may only be met by her love for our family. I am gracious that the Lord made us cousins and I am thankful for our many years of friendship.
Lily Crosby
Bridesmaid
Lily is my middle sister and the most generous person I know. She would give the clothes off of her back for someone that she didn't know. She has the most infectious laugh and the best selfie-taking skills of anyone I've met. She is adventurous and outgoing and she probably would live on a boat for the rest of her life if she could. I am thankful for our sisterhood on earth and eternally though Jesus.
Carianne Crosby
Bridesmaid
Carianne is my youngest sister and she loves life! She is so curious about everything and she wants to explore every moment that she is able. She is genuinely in love with corgis, collecting stickers for her water bottle, and rolling around outside with our dog. She constantly reminds me of how wonderful life is, and if you ask her, she will give you 110 reasons why the glass is half full. She always has a smile on her face and a few missing teeth (She's 10). She teaches me so much about seeking joy though the Lord and I love being her sister!
Chloe & Macy Staunton
Flower Girls
Chole & Macy are Wesley's cousins and the happiest girls that we've ever met! They love to play dress-up, play with their dolls, and sing Disney songs! We are excited to have them as our Flower Girls!
Andrew Bellanger
Ring Bearer
Andrew is Savannah's caboose cousin and he loves to play baseball, drive the go-cart through mud puddles, and build with legos. We are excited to have him as our Ring Bearer!
