Wedding Day

Reception

Our Wedding

It all began in 2022 thanks to a mutual friend, Jake. Jake was neighbors with Ashley’s aunt, and he and Will would often stop by on the weekends. That’s when Ashley and Will first crossed paths. From the very beginning, there was something special between us. We quickly became inseparable whenever we were together, though neither of us acted on the connection right away. One of our first adventures was going to a Treaty Oak concert together—a night that only confirmed how much fun we had as a pair. Weekend after weekend, we kept finding ourselves in the same place, spending more time together, laughing, talking, and creating memories. What started as casual hangouts soon turned into something much deeper. Looking back now, it’s easy to see that those weekends were the start of something beautiful—the beginning of our love story.

Our Story

Molly and I first met back in middle school, and from that moment on we were inseparable. We did everything together, from school days to weekends, and quickly became such an important part of each other’s lives. I honestly couldn’t imagine my life without her—she isn’t just a friend, she’s family. In fact when we would go out together, I think we would both worry our mother’s to death.. which we still do to this day. Molly has always been the life of the party, the one who makes everyone feel welcome and included. Her energy, kindness, and joy have been constants in my life, and I’m forever grateful for the bond we share.

Hailey has been by my side through both the lowest and highest points of my life. Growing up across the street from each other, she quickly became more like family than just a friend. She was always the innocent one—trusted by my parents without question—and the one I could always count on to give me the best guidance when I needed it most. No matter what, Hailey has always dropped whatever she was doing to be there for me, and that loyalty means the world. She is truly one of my best friends, and I would be lost without her. And even though she’s in love with Dog the Bounty Hunter, I still love her the same.

Michaela isn’t just one of my bridesmaids—she’s Will’s sister-in-law, which officially makes her family, whether she likes it or not. From day one, she’s brought the perfect mix of sarcasm, support, and “tell me everything immediately” energy into our lives.I’m beyond excited to have her by my side as we take this next step. Having her in our corner means the world to me. I can’t imagine this day (or this wedding planning rollercoaster) without her.

Olivia is Will’s sister, but to me, she’s already been the sister I always wanted. We’re so alike—both a little sassy and always finding a way to get what we want. I can’t wait to officially call her my sister and have her by my side through everything.

Will and Zac have been inseparable since middle school—the kind of best friends who bonded over troublemaking, inside jokes, and always having each other’s backs. Now, on Will’s wedding day, Zac stands beside him as best man, steadying his nerves just like he’s done for years. As Will steps into married life, Zac remains exactly what he’s always been: the friend who never left his side and never will.

Jake and Ashley have been friends since their daycare days, and he met Will in high school. Known as the life of the party, Jake is always ready with a laugh and a good time. He’s also the one who introduced Ashley and Will—so really, this whole wedding is thanks to him! Jake is the friend who’s always there to help, and we’re so lucky to have him around for all the fun (and maybe a little trouble too).

Will and Isaiah go way back to their bus-riding days, and they’ve been causing trouble together ever since. Isaiah was the first one to hop on a four-wheeler with Will, and let’s just say there were plenty of crashes and laughs along the way. He’s always ready for karaoke night—whether or not the rest of us are ready to hear it—and he never turns down a glass of his beloved Oliver wine. Isaiah brings the fun everywhere he goes, and we wouldn’t want to celebrate without him.

Will and Trent met playing baseball and have been close friends ever since. From hanging out all through high school to spending countless days fishing and riding together, they’ve shared years of laughs and adventures. Will is grateful to have Trent by his side on his wedding day.

Ed is Will’s brother and the one responsible for getting him hooked on riding in the first place. When they’re not out on the trails, you can usually find the two of them elbow-deep in Will’s Razor, truck, or whatever else has broken down that week. Ed has a special talent for keeping Will busy—mostly with repairs—but he’s also the guy who can “make it work” no matter what. If something runs (or at least makes noise), chances are Ed had a hand in it.

Granny has always been the one I look up to. Her faith inspires me daily, and she never fails to remind me how good God truly is. To her, I will always be her Cinderella, and to me, she will always be the most graceful, loving role model.

Nanny has always filled our family with love — through her cooking, her quilting, and the care she puts into everything she does. Her warmth and wisdom remind us that the best things in life are made with love, a lesson we carry with us as we begin this new chapter together.

My Nana has been through many battles in life, but she has never let them tear her down. Her strength, grace, and resilience have always inspired me. She’s the first to lend a helping hand when someone needs it and the one I can always count on to listen when I need a safe space to talk. With Nana, I’ve always felt understood, loved, and supported. And it’s not just me—Nana has a way of making everyone feel like family, which is why she isn’t only my Nana, but truly my friends’ Nana as well. I am so grateful for the bond we share and the love she so freely gives to everyone around her.

Ever since Will was a kid, Pawpaw has taken him out to the farm to go deer hunting—though half the time it was probably more about the snacks and stories than the deer. He’s been there every step of the way, teaching Will patience, hard work, and a healthy respect for early mornings. Will also grew up watching Pawpaw in his workshop, learning woodworking and soaking up plenty of life lessons (and maybe a few tricks for fixing things with duct tape). The time they’ve spent together has shaped who Will is today, and having Pawpaw here to celebrate is something truly special.

Walker is our sweet little nephew and the newest member of the family crew. Even though he’s brand new to the world…We can’t wait to watch him grow, spoil him rotten, and cheer him on through all of life’s adventures. Having him with us on our wedding day makes it even more special, because we get to start this new chapter of our lives with him right by our side.

Things to Do

Registry

The dress code for our wedding is formal/cocktail attire. We suggest that gentlemen wear suits and women dresses . At the same time, we understand not everyone owns a suit, so dress shirts and dress pants are perfectly fine! We do not want anyone to feel like they need to buy something new just for our wedding. We kindly ask that guest stray away from shades of white. No jeans.
