Steven Gonzalez
Steven Gonzalez - Groomsmen
Steven is my oldest a longest lasting friend, he's seen me through the good times and the bad time dating all the way back through college and to this day. Steven is a deeply caring guy who would drive halfway across the country for a friend at a moment's notice. He is kind and always tries to do whatever he can to help people. He is one of the people that I trust and care most about in the world and it's an honor to have him be apart our day.
Johnathan Oretga
Johnathan Oretga - Groomsmen
John is my ride or die friend. I was lucky enough to meet him while I was in service in Georgia back in 2018 and since then we have had more adventures and amazing workouts together then we can count. He's the guy in your life that always checks up on you and provides a constant space to talk and gain outside perspective. He is caring and loyal and extremely dependable. If John tells you he's going to do something you can be assured, it's going to happen. John has seen me at my worst and supports me through my best and I'm blessed to have him in my life and a part of our day.
Mac Downing

From the first time I met Mac I knew that we were going to be friends. Mac is an easy going dude who is always down for a great time but on top of all of that is an amazing confidant and great friend. Wither it's going out for a drink our making the next big plan to take over the world Mac is the person you want in your corner. I've enjoyed every moment that I've been blessed to have him in my life, and I couldn't be more grateful to have him be a part of our day.
Malcolm Shepard
Malcolm Shepard - Groomsmen
My little brother who will never forget to tell you that he's a little bit taller then me... While Malcolm has the burden of being the second favorite son he is also the best little brother a guy could ask for, which is a title no one can take away from him. He is smart, kind, creative, brave, and a dreamer. He's been a constant in my life forever and it's been amazing to see him grow into the man he's become. Although we are usually far apart our bond never falters and I'm so happy to have him be a part of our day.
Eric Richter
Eric Richter - Groomsmen
Eric is Abby's older brother and as I've had the chance to get to know him over the course of the last few years, I've come to truly appreciate the amount of love and care Eric has for Abby and his whole family. Their sibling bond is something that I think most families would spire to share and have. From the offset Eric and his family welcomed me with open arms which is a kindness that I can never truly repay but I appreciate dearly. The guy is also a great time, so we are going to make sure the bars are stocked and hope that Nebraska wins, and we celebrate our big day together with him and his family.
