Best Man
Caleb and I met through our mutual friend Chip Blake 6 years ago. Caleb is an outgoing, adventurous, well spoken guy who can get along with anyone. I like to think we have that in common which is why we are friends. He lives in Atlanta with his wife, Andie, and dog, Honey.
Maid of Honor
Ashton and I met in preschool at AUM. Ashton was the person that got me into horseback riding 14 years ago. She always has my back and can see different perspectives other people never think of. She is an incredibly talented artist and writer. She is loyal, hilarious, and always gives the best advice. If there's anyone who can make me laugh in even the worst of times, it's her. I am very blessed to have her standing by my side at the altar!
Groomsman
I met Chip freshman year of college. We met at a Trinity Highschool football game where my dad was coaching and Chip's brother was playing. We immediately bonded over our love of videogames. Chip's fun loving and compassionate nature told me that he would be a friend for a long time. Since meeting, we have been on many adventures together and I am excited to have many more to come. He currently lives in Auburn with his wife and works as a safety engineer.
Bridesmaid
Taz and I met at Montgomery Academy in the 7th grade. We were both the only new kids that year and quickly became best friends. She and I have been on many silly adventures over the years. Taz is kind, fierce, and always knows how to have fun in any situation. Taz received her nursing degree from UAB and is currently travel nursing in Arizona.

Jamison is incredibly sarcastic and that is why we are great friends. I met Jamison in the 10th grade and he was a teacher at my highschool. Jamison is charismatic and fun and knows how to make people feel seen. He lives in Chattanooga where he works for a nonprofit.
Bridesmaid
Cassidy and I met in 10th grade english at St. James. I think the first conversation I really remember us having was us talking about how her dad had seen my dad for a GI appointment. Cassidy and I went on to become Duo partners in Speech and Debate and even went to nationals in our event. Cassidy has the incredible ability to make you feel comfortable being yourself and can make anyone feel at ease.

I was introduced to Victor through our mutual friends Caleb and Chip and we quickly realized we have a lot in common. We both love being silly and sarcastic and seeing the adventure in front of us. I'm excited for Victor to bring his charismatic energy to the wedding. Victor lives in Los Angeles where he is pursuing an acting career.
Bridesmaid
Gracie and I met 14 years ago in September, about a month after I had started riding horses. She started at the barn and was this weird little kid that always fell off her horse. Fast forward a couple years later, and Gracie and I became best friends. We traveled once a month for several years to go to horseshows together. She has a very strong sense of right vs wrong, is incredibly loyal, and can make anyone laugh. She has taught me a lot about loyalty, leadership, and bravery. Gracie is in her senior year at Auburn University and plans to graduate in May 2024.

Amanda is Carson's big sister. Carson and Amanda are very close and have always been best friends. If Carson needs advice, he always calls his sister. Amanda is thoughtful, kind, and clever. She works as a pediatric nurse in Nashville and shares her compassion with others every day. Amanda is a great role model and friend.

Matthew and I have been friends since the second grade, making him one of my oldest friends. We grew up together in Chattanooga where we ran track together, played football, and bonded over our love of mathematics. He has a great sense of humor and there is never a dull moment. Matthew is working on his PhD in mathematics at NC State.
Bridesmaid
Stephanie and I met sophomore year of undergrad at Auburn through Phi Sigma Pi, an on-campus organization. We became roommates our senior year of undergrad and lived together for two years. Out of everyone I've lived with, Steph is definitely my favorite roomie (other than Carson of course). Stephanie works hard to make other people feel welcome, always stands up for what she believes in, and can make friends with absolutely anyone. Steph was also my vice president when I became president of Phi Sigma Pi our senior year at Auburn. Best VP ever! Steph is in vet school at Auburn University.
Officiant
Wesley is my oldest brother. He is one of the coolest people to talk to and is always present in every conversation you have with him. He loves history, languages, learning about new cultures, fitness, cooking, and traveling. He gives the best advice and brings a new perspective to every conversation. He lives in Chicago with his wife Brooke and two dogs Maya and Walnut. He is a marriage and family counselor and knows me and Carson pretty well, so we knew he would be the perfect officiant for our wedding ceremony. We are so honored he would officiate our wedding and we are blessed to have his guidance through this time.
