Wedding Party
Destiny Simmons
Maid of Honor
I know the bride because she is my sister. My favorite memory is when we had a snow ball fight in August at Mt. Baker.
Jillian Dufresne
Best Woman
Hi! My name is Jillian and I met Connor at WSU-Spokane, and we became friends through our shared major and being partnered up in sign language class. I currently get to go to school with him for a second degree as we work towards our doctorate in audiology (AUD) at Western Washington University. I feel extremely lucky to go through graduate school with my bestie, "Koner", AKA my ESWB (if you know you know). Go Cougs, Go Viks, and Go Ears! #TeamPhonak
Angelina Beecham-Freese
Bridesmaid
Mackenzie is one of my longest and dearest friends. We met in 2016 when her brother introduced us in the lunch room. We became fast friends, and I am happy to have been apart of her journey through high school, her meeting Connor, starting and finishing college, to now being a girl boss and getting married. I couldn't be prouder to call her my friend and one of the kindest people you will meet.

Jalen Seals
Groomsman
So I moved from my island to Washington for school. I was nervous and didn't know anyone. My cohort was all girls I thought but then I heard that there was one other guy. That other guy was the groom. When we first met, we got along very well. He is awesome and I would be lonely without him. We have gone out for drinks, gone to parties, and even did some cooking on the grill. Without a doubt, the best guy to have on any team. It's an honor to be next to him on his special day.

Aaron Carney
Groomsman
Hi! I'm Aaron! I first met Connor and Mackenzie while I was studying to become an SLP. We were all working hard to transition into our careers. We supported and encouraged each other to stay focused on our goals. We shared our grades, vented about professors, commiserated over car troubles, and of course, keeping each other sane. I loved any chance we had to cook together - shout to the delicious spaghetti (Skyline) they made!
