Kyle and Jeni met on the Disney College Program in January of 2017. They were both on their way to training for their first day of work at the Polynesian Resort. Kyle was going into Housekeeping and Jeni was going to be a Seater (Hostess) at one of the restaurants on property, called 'Ohana. Jeni was lost and didn't know where the training area was. After parking her car, she started walking towards the front of the building looking for a worker who could point her in the right direction. When she was getting closer to the entrance, she saw Kyle who was also lost and looking for this training area. For some reason, she felt brave enough to walk right up to him. She tapped him on the shoulder and said, "excuse me, are you here for training?" He turned around and replied, "yes." "Do you know where the Tiki Room is?" (That's what the training area was called lol) "No" "Oh, okay, well then, we can be lost together," she said, as she walked in front of him, trying to seem confident and mask how nervous she was to talk to him. Little did she know that as Kyle followed her into the entrance, he was planning on how he could to sit next to her during the training because of how much he liked her. The rest is history.

Best Man
Kyle and Taylor "TFurr" met in college through a mutual friend and became roommates during Kyle's junior year. Over the years, they've remained close, playing video games online with a regular group of friends. Taylor has become an integral part of Kyle and Jeni's lives and we're honored to have him with us for the wedding.
Maid of Honor
Val and Jeni have been friends since 2010, when they met on the bus in for their first day of high school. Since that day, Val has been an immense part of Jeni's life, from taking the same psychology classes together in college, to starting a podcast together in recent years. Val, you're the best friend that I wish every girl could have in her life. Thank you for always being there for me.
Groomsman
Myles is Kyle's brother-in-law, married to his sister Alycia. But the two go way back and have even known each other since their adolescent years. We're excited to have him in our lives as a big brother figure and apart of our special day.
Matron of Honor
Jeni often jokes that Jennifer (JLo) is the only person she would let take her full name, as she became Jennifer Whitmer when marrying Jeni's brother Chris. But truly, JLo is the sister Jeni never had, mentoring her in everything from girl talks to career to motherhood. JLo is always the life of the party and a true girl's girl. You can always count on her to have a good time.
Groomsman
Sal, Kyle and Jeni became friends while living in Florida on the Disney College Program. Sal was originally Kyle's roommate during this time in Orlando and quickly formed an unbreakable bond with the couple. Over the years, Sal has been a loyal friend who was there for big moments, including Kyle and Jeni's engagement while on a cruise to the Bahamas. You can always count on Sal for deep conversations and a good laugh.
Bridesmaid
Adilen and Jeni have known each other their whole lives, as they are cousins born just 4 months apart. Adilen and Jeni also grew up like sisters, spending the night at each other's house and going to high school and college together. The stories these two could share are endless, from playing hide and seek at their grandparents' house, to dancing to Spice Girls in their diapers to the hours of uncontrollable belly laughs over the years. Adilen, thank you for keeping a smile on my face, your energy is irreplaceable.
Groomsman
Though Kyle has known Cole since elementary school, we could not find a picture of them together lol. Their bond, however, is unbreakable. From crazy stories of them getting into mischief to deep phone conversations throughout their 20s, the two have remained best friends over the years. We're excited to have Cole share this special day with us.
Bridesmaid
Corina and Jeni met while working at the Boys & Girls Club of Las Cruces in 2014. From the moment they met, Corina has always felt like a big sister to Jeni. The two have maintained their friendship over the last twelve years. While most of their friendship has been over long-distance, the two have been there for important moments like Corina's wedding, Jeni's bachelorette and trips to visit each other in between the big moments. Cheers to many more years of friendship to come!
Groomsman
Joshua is Kyle's younger brother. Through the years of living in Florida, we were both lucky to watch him grow up over the summers and turn into a special young man. It is now an honor to have him part of our special day and we look forward to seeing him more now that we live in Tennessee.
Bridesmaid
Kamyen is Jeni's cousin, however, Jeni likes to call Kamyen her "godsister", as Jeni's mom, Esther, is Kamyen's "Nina" (godmother). Jeni grew up spending big chunks of the summer over at Kamyen's house and took on the role of big sister in her life. As she watched Kamyen grow up before her eyes, she noticed that Kamyen never lost her beautiful smile and warm spirit. Love you "Pinky"! (lol)
Officiant
It is an honor to say that Chris, Jeni's big brother, will be officiating the ceremony. Chris is not just my big brother, but also my mentor, one of my best friends and the person I look up to the most. Chris and I have been through so many peaks and valleys throughout our life, and I'd like to thank him for being my biggest supporter over the years. Kyle and I are so excited to have him help us continue on this new chapter.
