Morgan Bates - Maid of Honor
Morgan and Ashlee have been besties since their freshman year of high school. They bonded over their love of kids' shows (which they still enjoy watching together), musicals, and books. They were also able to share a couple of those loves by reading the same book together on the flights to and from New York last November. Morgan always has Ashlee's back, and she is a great listener. Ashlee tells her just about everything, and she gives great advice.
Jeni Iizuka - Matron of Honor
Yes, Ashlee does have a maid of honor and a matron of honor. She couldn't choose between two of her closest friends, so she has both. Jeni got married last September, and Ashlee was overjoyed to be her maid of honor. Jeni has been invaluable in helping with planning, since Ashlee would have no idea where to start if Jeni hadn't done the whole wedding thing first.
Isabella Andrews - Bridesmaid
Bella is Ashlee's little sister. She's one of the only people Ashlee will listen to when they give her advice she doesn't want to hear. They love having late-night conversations and watching romantic comedies with their Aunt Vonda. Bella is brave and confident, and Ashlee aspires to be as cool as her one day.
Madeleine Whitehead - Bridesmaid
Madeleine is Ashlee's cousin and probably her oldest friend. Their parents threw them together as babies, and they've been friends ever since. They spent many summer days jumping on the trampoline and playing in the sprinklers. Even though they no longer live in the same state as each other, they are still very close, and they will easily spend hours talking together when they get the chance.
Jessica Tew - Bridesmaid
Jess and Ashlee became friends in Activity Days at church, and they also went to Hillcrest High and Utah Valley University together. They both love theatre, which they took together in high school. Ashlee is extremely grateful to have had one of her closest friends with her at UVU, since it would have been lonely and hard without Karoleena. They enjoy going on hikes together, although they admittedly aren't very good at hiking. They also like playing pickleball together and watching anime.
Isabelle Scriver - Bridesmaid
Isabelle is Charlie's youngest sibling, and Ashlee is very excited to be able to call her sister soon, too! Ashlee has loved getting to know Belle. They enjoy swimming together and watching movies with Charlie, Jon, and their friend Jade.
Skyler Scriver - Best Man
Skyler is Charlie's second oldest brother. Whether they liked it or not, they have always been tied together, and likely will continue to be. There were a few times in elementary school where peers, and even some adults, insisted that they were twins, though they never thought that they looked that much alike. Growing up, they often walked to school together, at least on the days they weren't tired of each other. They frequently shared a bedroom, and they would even sneak into the other's room at night for a sleepover when they did have separate rooms. Skyler is a good man to be stuck with.
Joel Andrews - Groomsman
Joel, also known as Greeny Baby, is Ashlee's youngest sibling. Some of the things he loves include bananas, running, D&D, Nintendo games, and Brandon Sanderson books. Charlie and Joel haven't spent a lot of time together since he left for his mission to Spain soon after Ashlee and Charlie began dating. They are excited to get to know each other more as brothers-in-law.
Kelly Scriver - Groomsman
Kelly is Charlie's oldest brother, and he sure makes that known. At a young age, Kelly became adept at imbuing his brotherly love through hugging his brothers (with a head lock) and making sure it sticks by rubbing it in with a noogie. The boys, along with their sisters, have always been known to Kelly as "short one," even into adulthood when none of them are little anymore.
Jorden Rees - Groomsman
Jorden is Charlie's cousin. Jorden has always been good company. He is fun and quick to crack a joke, make a witty comment, or perform a silly act that will surely have everyone in the room laughing. The days he would sleep over at the Scriver house, everyone sleeping in a self-made fort in the living room, were the best. Beyond that, Jorden is sweet and an overall amazing man.
Brayden Scriver - Groomsman
Brayden is Charlie's big little brother. Despite being the youngest of the boys, he has surpassed his brothers in height. Brayden is generally a pretty quiet person and likes to keep to himself. He rarely answers texts or phone calls. However, you can get him to respond or have a lengthy conversation if the topic is something he likes and knows well. Charlie and Brayden have spent lots of time bonding over playing video games, building Legos, and discussing mechanical processes.
Jon Digerness - Groomsman
