Elizabeth Phillips
Bridesmaid
Lily and Jordan met on their soccer team when they were both about 4 years old. They were not automatically friends because they were both so jealous of the other's soccer skills. One day after Jordan stuck up for Lily after a mean comment made by another girl on the soccer team, they became fast friends. They spent every possible moment they could together while they were in elementary school, middle school, and high school. Some of Jordan's favorite memories growing up are of eating pizza rolls and donuts at Lily's house and making funny videos. Lily was one of Jordan's only true friends in high school, and she felt as though she could tell her anything and everything. Jordan learned so much from Lily about what it means to be a good friend and a good person.
Courtney Bell
Bridesmaid
Courtney is Tanner's younger sister and is Jordan's soon-to-be sister! Her and Jordan have known each other for about 5 and a half years and have a lot in common. Every time Jordan sees Courtney she feels as though they could talk for hours because of their similar interests. Jordan can also see so much of the kind heartedness that she loves in Tanner in Courtney as well. Although Courtney and Jordan do not live in the same state, Jordan loves seeing Courtney when she comes home. Jordan is so excited about being able to call her family.
Alicia Frost
Bridesmaid
Jordan met Alicia when she asked for a ride home one day after a sorority recruiting event. Right away, Jordan knew that she wanted to become really good friends with Alicia. Jordan is so grateful she met Alicia because they made, and continue to make, the best memories. They have so much fun together and Alicia has always been there for Jordan. Jordan has always said that her college life would have only consisted of office hours and studying if she hadn't met Alicia. She has a special way of making everyone feel important, loved, and listened to.
Sarah Buckhouse
Bridesmaid
Sarah and Jordan's friendship started when they decided to team up for a corn hole competition and beat everyone who dared to challenge them! Since then, they have had several nights of fun and long heartfelt conversations. She has always been there to celebrate with Jordan or give her advice, and has always supported Jordan and Tanner's relationship. Jordan feels so blessed to have made friendships in college like the one she has with Sarah.
Ryan Bell
Best Man
Ryan Frederick Bell: Tanner's oldest brother, accomplice in crime, board game antagonist, and best friend. He's the older brother anyone wishes they could have. You paved the way for me taking on the mistakes I would've made, being an ear and voice of reason during joyful and difficult times. If I had to name someone I trust my life with, without a doubt that is you. So blessed to have such a remarkable brother in my life.
Slater Stimson
Best Man
Slater Stimson: Cross country wall builder, Rise of Nations Traitor, Sea Camp kayak pirate, and Tanner's friend since 4th grade. After telling Slater to stop following him, they created a bond that couldn't be separated for the next 14 years. You know that you have a good friend when you argue over games of risk and monopoly, when you walk to your friends house in snowy, icy, sub zero weather, or when you simply realize there is nothing they can do to make you not love them anymore. Friends come and go over life, though a few friends you remain close with forever. Slater, you are that friend. I know you have my back and that I have yours. So excited to have you in my life as Jordan and I start this journey together.
Jacob Jarvis
Groomsman
Jacob Jarvis: Tanner's college roommate, a hilarious distraction at work, softball manager, and Jordan's concert buddy. It's hard to not love Jacob other than the fact that he's a Chiefs fan... It's not everyday you find a dude to work at 3 different jobs with and who gets along so well with the soon-to-be wifey. If you could draft friends in college, Jacob is the Von Miller, 1st round pick, Super Bowl MVP. Jacob, you're someone who's challenged me to be a better person since I've met you and someone I can always count on having a fun time with. I'm truly a lucky guy to have met you.
Evan Kerns
Groomsman
Evan Kerns: Tanner's college roommate, zombie slayer, Tanner's softball stat keeper, zombies buddy, smoothie tester, and zombies addict. This guy simply knows the way to Tanner's heart....which is unfortunately killing zombies. Evan, you're a chump. You were the first real friend I made at CU (you probably don't realize how significant that is to me) and a dude I know I can count on. You've been the Speed Cola, Jugger-nog, Double Tap, and Quick Revive to my life in the last 5 years I've known you. But seriously, you're everything a guy would look for in a friend: loving, compassionate, loyal, empathetical, and someone who loves God. Can't tell you how great of a friend you've been. Hopefully we can live in the same area again!
Kevin Wake
Groomsman
Kevin Wake: Legendary Holographic High School friend, world at war double-double & alamo artist, baseball wizard, black jack chip raker, and good ole buddy ole pal. Kevin is a punk. Seriously, you're the smartest guy I know; you're the Rick to my Morty, although I'm Morty after he put seeds waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay up inside and has temporary super intelligence. You've got a passionate, kind, and honest heart, which makes it easy to be friends with you. So pumped to have you in my wedding! Looking forward to the fun years to come.
Sean Wake
Groomsman
Sean Wake: Tanner's high school cutoff-man he never hit, Wampa War Hero Specialist, chemistry class grade mistress, and long-time homie. Distance can't separate friendship. Baseball is only a small part of our friendship, but one of the stories I best remember that characterizes you as a friend was after our Highlands Ranch game senior year the day of Prom. We both had a great game hitting, (both hit HRs I believe), although I was the last person to pitch and laid a complete goose egg. The team was frustrated, I was frustrated, and we had to find a way to enjoy the rest of the night. I vividly remember you being the first person to tell me that we had a good game and to make sure it was a fun and memorable night. I love the guy you are and am so blessed to have you as a friend.
