Hi! Zipporah is my older sister! I am personally mostly excited to see her move onto the next chapters of her life through this unification between her and Corbin. Zipporah and Corbin love each other deeply, are open about it, and would do anything for the other.

Maid of Honor

Hello, my name is Breona and I have known Zippy for about 12-13 years. We met at Triple T Christian Youth Ministries have been best friends ever since! My favorite memory that I have with Zippy is when we were both doing Fair Share together. One day, we were given chips as a side. Zippy decided to steal the entire bag of chips and the whole bottle of ketchup. Just to make everyone aware- I’m pretty sure we finished off that bag of chips by dipping them in ketchup! I knew that Zippy and Corbin were perfect for each-other when I realized he was able to deal with her craziness because that’s not easy! I’m just excited to be a part of my best friend’s wedding. If you see me crying at the alter, just ignore me.

I’ve known Corbin since middle school, but during these last few years I’ve gotten closer to him and seen just how great of a friend he is. He is thoughtful, kind, and always there for those around him. I remember when Corbin and Zippy first started dating and it was easy to see how perfect of a match they were for each other. It’s been a joy to watch their relationship grow, and I’m excited to see what their future holds

My earliest memory of meeting Zippy was when I attempted to have a Star Wars marathon at the beginning of freshman year in the dorm lobby and she was the only one who showed up. It’s hard to choose a favorite memory, but the spring break trip we took to Nashville is definitely up there. And outside of getting to see my best friend get married, something that I’m really looking forward to is going wedding dress shopping with her!

Best Man

Corbin and I met when we were just two little kids in Kindergarten. I think our first conversation went something like one of us saying, "Hey, do you want to be best friends?" Since then, I have treasured Corbin as one of the best human beings I have ever had the pleasure of being close to. In my life, I've counted him as a teammate, mentor, classmate, confidante, a great listener, and a very old friend. When I first met Zippy and got to know her better, I could see how she filled him with joy (and some sense here and there). I always felt Corbin would make an absolutely amazing companion and husband whomever he found to be the one, and I could not be more thrilled for them both.

I met Zippy when I joined our sorority, Alpha Gamma Delta, but I really got close to her when I moved into the sorority house and we became neighbors with all our random late-night adventures, hall hang outs and watching movies in the dorm rooms. It's really hard to pick a favorite memory with Zippy because there are so many but if I had to pick one it would be just a random night Zippy, me, and a couple of others stayed up late playing games and just hanging out in the sorority lobby. With wedding preparations I'm most excited that I will be able to be there with Zippy on every part of the journey towards her wedding day and that I will be contributing to such a special part of her life. I can't remember exactly when I knew Zippy and Corbin were going to be together. It almost seemed like they were meant to be together from the start. I do remember though the more I heard about Corbin and saw them together the more I was glad that she had him in her life and the more I suspected that they were going to be together for a long time.

I met Corbin in the 5th Grade, so there’s a lot I could say about him here; but I’ll keep it to the point. I consider it a great honor to be one of Corbin’s many friends. He is one of the most genuine, honest, funny, and caring human beings I’ve ever had the pleasure to meet; and I can tell you with full confidence that Zippy has been such a blessing to come into Corbin’s life. She is a perfect reflection of Corbin, and he more than deserves to have someone in his life that will love him the way he loves others. I’m so proud of and happy for the two of them, and I know Corbin and Zippy will power through anything this life has in store for them.

I met Zippy when I joined Alpha Gam. We didn’t really talk much when I initially joined but during Covid, Alpha Gam partnered people up to send letters to each other and I received one from Zippy. I always forgot to send the one I wrote so once Zippy was back to college we kind of started our friendship slowly because of that. I have no idea when we got really close, but I’ve enjoyed every moment of our friendship. My favorite memory with Zippy is getting to experience senior week together in Alpha Gam as well as graduating together. It’s always nice experiencing milestones with a good friend by your side ◡̈ I’m most excited to spend time with Zippy at the bachelorette weekend. Zippy is a funny talker (and texter) and it’s always a hoot and a half deciphering what she’s saying.

When I first met Corbin we were in Mrs. Bridges’ pre-school class at the old church in palomar center. Since those days, we are always sure to spend time with each other at least once a month, and act like we hate each other. When the truth is, I’m having the most fun I’ve had with any of my friends. It’s crazy to think of how our friendship would evolve from when we would hit each other with books and throw things at each other into us being such close friends when he got married. While growing up together Corbin was always there for me when things were going great or bad. And I only hope I was there enough for him. He’s patient and adapts to his surroundings to the point where every friend has a unique perspective of who Corbin is. When he introduced me to Zippy I felt like he finally met a person who not only matched his personality but also expanded on some of the areas he was more reserved in. It’s been fun to see our whole friend group bring their girlfriends/boyfriends, fiancé(e)s, and spouses around more and more as we have grown older, and I feel Zippy fits in perfectly…. Assuming she doesn’t breakdown due to the shear stupidity and chaos we bring. I know that I am not alone in being excited for your future and wish you love and happiness for years to come!

Me and Zippy meet when I joined the sorority of Alpha Gamma Delta. Me and her bonded from the start when we would eat lunch together in the Caf at Georgetown College. My favorite memory that I’ve had with Zippy is seeing how caring and thoughtful she is in everything. What I mean by this is getting gifts for everyone on Christmas, always being there for anyone and doing a million things for other people. I always think about how we were roommates and almost every time I would walk in, she would be napping but that’s because she was doing the most when she was awake, so I always had to be sneaking around the dorm room. I’m most excited to see Zippy get married and to see everyone celebrate Zippy and Corbin! They are one of the most positive and uplifting couple I’ve ever seen, and I can’t wait for the wedding.

I’ve known Corbin since we were wee lads. Well I was a wee lad and Corbin was a much taller lad, which to me was not very fair, but I have survived that trauma. We’ve been friends since elementary school but when I moved back to Lexington for college we got much closer, be it hanging out in between classes or going to the gym (he was the only thing keeping me consistently there). Right away upon meeting Zippy I could tell she was the one for Corbin. The way Corbin lights up when he interacts with Zippy is something special. Being able to stand up there with Corbin on the biggest of days is such an honor and I cannot wait to be a part of this new chapter of their lives.

I met Zippy my freshman year of college. She sat right in front of me in choir and she was one of the sweetest people in the room. When I joined Alpha Gam in the spring, Zippy was one of the first people I recognized, and from there she became one of my best friends. She has always been up for adventure and is always there for her friends. When we went to Florida for spring break, Zippy told me that she and Corbin had been talking about getting engaged. Since she met Corbin, Zippy has been so happy and confident, and I love seeing her be so happy and confident. They are truly an amazing couple, and I can't wait to help Zippy get ready to celebrate spending her life with Corbin!

When I first met Corbin, it was clear that he was a kind, patient person. As I started to get to know him better I also saw how much he cared for people and was happy to help anyone with anything they needed help with. He's not only a great friend but a great person overall. Once he first mentioned Zippy when they started dating, I could tell how happy he was and once I met Zippy | could tell how happy they were together and were meant for each other. That's why it was no surprise when he first mentioned to me that he was going to propose, it was meant to be and you can tell by how happy they are together, and I wish them both nothing but the best!

I met Zippy through Alpha Gamma Delta. When I was still new to the sorority and not used to all the girls yet, Zippy was someone who helped me feel connected. I will never forget when I was just a college student picking up my Fazoli’s order (where zippy worked) and she had written “your G big loves you” on my bag. I barely understood sorority Fams at the time, and I just thought wow she is really thoughtful and kind! Since then, Zippy has always made me feel warm and fuzzy inside. She is like a breath of fresh air. It is always a fun time with Zippy and though we do not live together anymore I know I can always count on her. Corbin is a lucky man, and I remember being so ecstatic when the two of them started dating. Zippy deserves the peace and love that Corbin brings to the table in their relationship. The two of them have been inseparable ever since their first date. I’m ready for bachelorette fun, but I’m most excited for the two of them to finally say I do!!
