Paige & Stephen
Wedding Party
Ryann Whisler
Maid of Honor
Ryann is Paige’s younger sister and best friend. Though three years younger, people often say they could be twins. Somewhere between teasing, bickering, and dramatic sisterly fights, their bond became unbreakable. If Paige is on the phone, it is almost always with her mom or Ryann. Paige consults Ryann on nearly every decision, big or small, and their love runs deep. They would do anything for each other and Paige could not imagine her wedding day without her sister standing right behind her.
Rachel Kane
Bridesmaid
Rachel has been one of Paige’s best friends since just before high school. While the two of them originally met through a fan club, it just so happened that Rachel quickly became Paige's first friend in the state of Colorado once she and her family left Washington. Rachel even accompanied Paige to her first homecoming dance! They’ve grown up together through countless phases, friendships, and yes, even more fan clubs. Rachel is Paige’s wing woman, the friend she can always count on to understand her, and someone she loves dearly. She is so excited to be able to party with her dearest friend by her side! P.S. Photo credit to Rachel for capturing a beautiful engagement photoshoot in Chicago!!!
Keva Shull
Bridesmaid
Paige and Keva met in middle school when Keva moved from Alaska to Pullman, WA. They instantly clicked! Their friendship blossomed over music, humor, and shared personalities. They sang together in choir, talent shows, and even a duet at Paige’s mom’s wedding. Though Paige later moved to Colorado, every reunion between them felt like no time had passed at all. Even at a young age, Paige always knew Keva would be by her side on her wedding day and she is so grateful to have their support on her special day as one of her longest and dearest friends.
Arin Cederberg
Best Person & Honorary Bridesmaid
Arin and Stephen have known each other since their freshman year of high school and have been best friends since about a year after that. Though they didn't get along at first, they eventually developed a bond forged by countless ups and downs and became each other's greatest supporters through the trials of earning a bachelor's degree in music. Arin was also the first to realize that Paige and Stephen were perfect for each other. They would constantly talk up their good qualities, nudge them together, and eventually help Stephen to work up the courage to ask Paige out on their first date. Stephen is grateful to have had Arin by his side all those years and to have them by his side for this next great step.
Austin Clay
Groomsman
Austin and Stephen have been best friends since middle school. Every day during lunch they could be found in their teacher's classroom playing card games, laughing, and nerding out. Even after Stephen changed schools, they kept an unbreakable bond through sleepovers and their weekly meeting at the local card shop. During their freshamn year of college they became roommates and supported eachother through all the triumphs and hardships of living away from home. Stephen is honored to have had Austin as a friend and to have him by his side for this momentous occasion.
Nico O'Hara
Groomsman
Nico is one of Paige’s and Stephen’s dearest friends. The three of them met at NMSU’s music program, where Nico impressed everyone as an upright bassist and brought many laughs through the trials of Music Theory! Always ready to help, Nico was a huge support to Paige and Stephen throughout college and beyond. Generous, funny, and full of musical talent, Nico is a joy to be around, always lifting their spirits. Nico is a friend they can always count on, no problem too big or too small. Both Paige and Stephen are so grateful to have him as a groomsman on their wedding day.
Cole Miller
Honorary Groomsman
Cole is Stephen’s younger brother and first friend. Cole and Stephen have always been there for eachother through all of life's ups and downs. Cole will be serving as an honorary groomsman while also capturing the wedding on video! With a degree in film, he generously offered his talents to document the day, ensuring the special memories are preserved. Stephen is honored to have Cole both behind the camera and by his side to make the day even more special.
Carmen
Flower Girl
Carmen is a bright and joyful part of Stephen's side of the family! She brings so much sweetness and fun wherever she goes and we are so excited to have her as our flower girl! We are deeply honored to have her lead the way down the aisle!
Emmet Whisler
Ring Bearer
Emmet is Paige’s adorable youngest brother, full of sass and effortless humor. In many ways, Emmet is one of Paige's biggest muses; she cherishes being the eldest sister to her siblings and is so grateful for them and how much they make her smile and laugh. Paige and Stephen are honored to have Emmet as their ring bearer on their special day.
Jackson Whisler
Junior Groomsman
Jackson, Paige’s younger brother, is a naturally hilarious and kind, stand-up dude. Although Paige was already a big sister when Jackson was born, he had given that role a whole new meaning; he taught her how to be a better sister to all of her siblings. Paige would not be the person she is today without her sister and brothers. Stephen and she are so honored that Jackson will be joining the celebration as a junior groomsman.
