Ally and I have known each other for a long time, so it’s hard to pick just one memory! Our late-night drives and talks will always be one of my favorite things. I remember one night when we stayed up really late, and neither of us really wanted to go to bed. So around 2 AM, we decided to set up a hammock at ACU and watch a movie. Simple and unplanned moments like those will always be special to me💜
Jaeden Peterson - Best Man
Favorite memory of the groom-I don't have a specific memory. I've enjoyed growing up with you as my best friend. You’ve been there for all of high school, college graduation, and my wedding.

My favorite musical came to Dallas when I was in high school and as a 17 yr old without a license my sister agreed to drive and go with me during her finals week. With a cocktail in one hand and her phone in the other she wrote her final paper in the audience of the musical.
Samuel Peterson - Groomsman
Favorite memory of the groom-(Ignoring you and Jae scamming me with unfair trades) I always enjoyed getting to play with you, even though you probably thought I was super childish when we played since I am over four years younger than you.
Hailee Holtz - Bridesmaid
Throughout my time in college Ally truly made college so fun! My earliest and favorite memories were the late nights, sing song, intramural games, and the fun concerts. My most favorite moments can't be put on here lol, but I love when Ally and I can just let loose, have fun, and act stupid. Whether that be when we absolutely burnt garlic bread to death or absolutely destroy others at games. I have loved these moments and can't wait for more!

When it comes to who I met first, it’s obviously Thor. On a game night in Gardner Dorm. Shout out to her, she will be missed. Ally and I officially met one night during pledging when Avery Jackson invited me to go with a group of people to hunt a watermelon. We became acquainted then. Unofficially it was when GATA was giving out red velvet bundt cakes celebrating 100 year Birthday in the campus center. And I saw her and she kinda scared me. Fast forward, Frat Formal and a group of us were staying in a house including Ally. We became besties and over the summer we got closer because she was from Abilene and I was working camps. The Rest is pretty much history. Favorite memory of them is when I threw some game nights and the two of them would nerd out or maybe it was just Thor. About Chemistry and Physics Respectively.
Lindsay Watson - Groomswoman
Earliest memory-"My earliest memory is you doing karate in the middle of Waco and I don’t remember why but it was so funny 😭"
Jazmin Dominguez - Bridesmaid
First time we met: Ally was Sylvia's friend and we were at a bonfire and we were talking and I was like hey I’m Jazmin I see you everywhere. Ally laughed and said "I’m Ally nice to finally official meet you." Favorite memories: All the times we worked together at the post office on campus.
Jonathan Epperson - Groomsman
The first time we met was at Winter camp. Coincidentally, my favorite memory is also from winter camp a couple years later. You’re gonna want to censor this. We all went out into the woods in the middle of the night and (were doing dumb stuff). Thor didn’t do any of that because he’s smart, so he just kinda lead us on a journey through the woods while we were all (being irresponsible).
Carrie Johnston - Bridesmaid
Favorite memories: All the spontaneous road trips we went on together, specifically driving to the Oklahoma border and back on a school night. Also, all the trips that we have taken to see The Band Camino together.
Avery Jackson - Groomsman
Favorite memory of the groom-"The snow week your sophomore year, first time we truly talked"
Meredith Fikes - Bridesmaid
My fondest memory was when Ally and I were playing volleyball together. She taught me just about everything I know. Although, I am not as good as her dancer like ability to get any ball that comes near her in any position. She consistently won the admiration of anyone watching her play volleyball using her secret skill of magically bending backwards.
Marlon Miller - Groomsman
Favorite memory of you and the groom-Soccer Game Penalty Indoor Tournament
Sylvia Viljoen - Bridesmaid
Memory when we first met: being in Pre-Cal 2 and sitting on opposite sides of the classroom just knowing we were about to be best buds.
Favorite memory: Hiking the towns in Germany and crying over electrical circuits at night. Being exhausted and taking mid afternoon naps at coffee shops/gelato shops.
