Hello! I am Sophia and I am the maid of honor, aka. best friend of the bride. I am so excited to celebrate Alyson's and Matt's special day, and I am so HONORED to get to be apart of their life. Alyson and I grew close quickly after touring TAMUC together and then living right across the hall from one another for 2 years. No matter the path life has taken us we both have remained close and now here we are getting to celebrate this very special moment together. I am so glad to add Matt to OUR friendship haha! Congrats to the lovely couple, I'll see you both down the aisle on October 4th, 2024.

Hi everybody! I’m Leanna and my only personality trait right now are my twin baby girls! Alyson and I have been close pretty much since the day we met in 2017 at the library Starbucks at TAMUC, when we were “beta buddies.” Soon after, I became her big sister in our sorority and we’ve been by each others’ side every step of the way since then. Alyson was one of my bridesmaids and stood beside me on my wedding day, before she became auntie Alyson to my babies!

It is an honor to be able to do the same, and stand beside her when she marries the love of her life. I cannot WAIT to celebrate Alyson and Matt’s love story, they deserve a lifetime of love and happiness together! 🩷

Hey y’all! I’m Layne, and words can’t express how happy I am for Alyson! Over the past three years she’s been an AMAZING friend! It’s a blessing to have both known Mr. Tony Jackson and to be able to work at a school named after someone that made an impact on our lives. I know he’s smiling down us and if he wasn’t for him I would’ve never met Alyson. I’m excited to be apart of Alyson and Matt’s special day they are an amazing couple who are blessed to have each other! Pray that God continue to bless them and that their love continue to grow for each other!

Hi y’all! I am Paiten, and I am SO excited to be one of Alyson’s bridesmaids. Alyson and I have known each other since elementary school, became friends in middle school, and reconnected when we got hired at the same school. I’m glad that no matter where life took us that we both ended up where we started. So excited to celebrate Matt and Alyson’s tying the knot and support and pray for them in their marriage!!

I met Alyson in college. It was 2019 and I had just started working at an after school program at Commerce Middle School. From the time we met it was pretty obvious we got a long well. We quickly became friends outside of work which entailed Alyson cooking spicy noodles and energy drinks. I am so thankful for this person and relationship we have. Congratulations Alyson and Matthew. I am so happy for y’all.
