Our Wedding

Like many modern love stories… ours began with a swipe. We met on Bumble, exchanged a few messages, and decided to meet up at Red Robin — because nothing says “potential soulmate” like burgers and bottomless fries.Brea’s first thought when she saw Drew in person? “Wow, he is so tall.” Drew’s first thought when he saw where Brea parked? “Why is she all the way over there?” (Little did he know, this is just what Brea does — she parks far away on purpose. And yes, it’s still a thing.)That first date was full of laughs, easy conversation, and the kind of connection that’s hard to find. Brea was drawn to Drew’s calm strength, deep love for the Lord, and how he saw past every obstacle in her life with compassion and grace. Drew quickly fell for Brea’s hilarious sense of humor, adventurous spirit, and unwavering faith. She made him laugh, love deeper, and believe even more.Over time, our bond grew stronger through road trips, spontaneous adventures, quiet nights building LEGOs (yes, we’re that couple), and constant reminders that love is in the little things. We kept God at the center of it all — and we knew early on that this was something special.On June 20, 2025, Drew proposed on a beach at sunset. It was romantic, peaceful, a little windy — and absolutely perfect.We’re so excited for this next step in our journey together. Drew was an answered prayer, and we’re incredibly thankful God brought us to each other. We can't wait to celebrate this love with the people who mean the most to us — thank you for being part of our story.

Our Story

My name is Erika Nelson. I am fortunate to be Brea’s much older sister. As we were growing up I remember Brea always wanting to be included when my friends and I were hanging out.  She was such a cute sister! I am the lucky mother of two beautiful little girls that are the bright lights of my life, and I love so much. In what little free time I do have I enjoy reading a book and/or catching up on some good reality tv. I am so excited to celebrate Brea and Drew’s special day and embark on their new adventures together.

My name is Matthew Buresh, I just graduated from Texas Christian University (Go Frogs!) and plan on attending Medical School starting August 2027. My favorite things are pretty simple: Jesus, spending time with the people I love, running and lifting, trying new food spots, and experiencing new cultures through travel. I’ve know Drew for nearly 23 years. As his brother, we’ve had to share a lot of things (including a room), but my favorite has been all the fun memories and experiences over the years. I’m proud that I can call him my big brother, and I’ve been given the honor and privilege to be his best man. My job is to ensure that he has the smoothest experience with minimal stress. As Drew and Brea begin their next chapter, I’m excited to see how God uses and moves through them!

I love spending time with friends and family, getting outdoors with my dogs, and curling up with a good book. I met Brea back in 5th grade after switching schools, and we’ve been close ever since!

Hi, my name is Lexi Waggoner. I’ve known Brea for pretty much my entire life. Our siblings were close, so from the moment we were born, we were already part of each other’s world. If I’m not hanging out with friends or family, you’ll probably find me curled up with a good book, baking something sweet, or rewatching my favorite TV show for the 80th time. A new hobby I have been getting into is pickleball! I may not be the best but it’s fun hehe. I’m so excited to celebrate this beautiful new chapter in Drew and Brea’s marriage.

hi hi! My name’s Olivia! I love being at home, sleeping (at home), hanging with my husband and/or friends (at home), playing games (at home, of course). Whenever I’m not at home I partake in the occasional pickleball or volleyball game. I’ve been friends with Brea since freshman year of high school. No surprise she is still as sweet as she was when I met her. I’m beyond blessed to call her my friend. Cannot WAIT to celebrate Brea and Drew on this special day.

I’m Ethan King, I like pop music and great weather. I know Drew from playing flag football and going to the same high school. I’m a big fan of long walks around bodies of waters and Mediterranean food. Hope you have a blessed day whoever’s reading this.

I have known Drew since the 2nd grade, and growing up as my best friend we have been close through every move and milestone since. From all the flag football games and childhood antics, to debating sports as adults, he’s always been the most reliable friend I could ask for. I am honored to stand by his side as he and Brea start this new chapter. I can’t wait to celebrate the big day with them!

My name is Noah,I am honored and blessed to call Drew one of my best friends. Like Drew, I am a proud and dedicated accountant! I have known Drew since middle school at Scottsdale Christian Academy where we bonded over our shared love of sports. Throughout the years our friendship has grown and we have grown up together, transitioning into our adult lives where we have enjoyed many great moments throughout the years. Whether its watching baseball in person or on TV, sharing memes and telling jokes, or anything in between, I always have a great time with Drew no matter what. I love going to gym, cooking, and all things sports. I also love trying new restaurants around the valley and going on long walks.
