Our Story

Ariel and Bekah have been best friends for almost eleven years. These two have been inseparable, from high school JROTC, to college roommates, to traveling all over the United States. Ariel has been the greatest blessing in Bekah's life.

Ariel Ford

Emma's life wasn't complete for four long years, as she awaited the birth of her dear sister, Bekah. In the same way, Bekah adored her sister from the very beginning. Bekah is extremely grateful to have grown closer and closer with Emma through college and beyond. This day would not be the same without her sister by her side.

Emma Turner

Dana is the second sister that Bekah is so grateful to have. Aaron has not only brought so much love into Bekah's life through his character, but also through the addition of his family. It is such an honor for Bekah to be gaining another sister as wonderful as Dana.

Dana Lewis

Colin has been Aaron's best friend for ten years since they met while working a landscaping job. Colin has been present for every major event of Aaron's life since. Aaron is so excited to have Colin by his side on the day of his wedding.

Aaron met Cait through our church worship band. They always enjoy being creative on stage together (and off, in their farming simulator games). When they are in the same room there is sure to be uncontrollable laughter. It is a blessing to have Cait stand with Aaron on the most special day.

From growing up together, to a year at the same college, to both getting married; Aaron and Graham have been best buds. They always find themselves dreaming up new plans for the future and scheming possible world domination. Aaron is so glad to have his cousin by his side today.
