The bride's Sister-in-Law - Megan and Cierra have known each other since middle school and serendipitously became related 10 years ago when Cierra's brother, Alex fell in love with Megan. The couple have four beautiful children, two of whom you will see in the bridal party as junior attendants. Cierra and Megan's relationship has grown in depth and devotion exponentially in the last couple of years, and Jesus has been at the center of all of it. This wedding would not be taking place if it weren't for the love, advice, prayers, conversation, support, AND planning execution from Megan.

Adriana is Cierra's best friend. The two met in a church small group and quickly bonded. Jesus has been the foundation of their friendship and it has been a joy for both of them to support and cheer on each other in these incredible life journeys. Through great seasons of life growth, God has only brought them closer together. As each woman met the man they each would fall in love with and end up marrying, the other woman stood by her side in prayer, in conversation and support, and also on the day of the wedding. It will continue to be a beautiful journey as they both enter into their new life seasons of motherhood. Adriana and her husband, David, currently live in Aurora, Colorado with their dog, and are excitedly expecting their first child.

Elissa and Cierra have been best friends for a very long time. They met in a young adult small group at their church when they were only 19. They became fast friends, roommates, and life long sisters in Christ. The steadfast bond of this sisterhood is not seen in many friendships. It has been such a joy to watch Elissa become a wife and a mother and grow into and in those roles over the last 10+ years. Cierra and Elissa have been confidants, armor bearers and the sharpening iron for each other through love, loss, great celebrations, graduations, on-stage and living room performances, the passing of their 20s and the journey into the new seasons and life journeys before them. God brought them together, and he continues to shower their friendship in love and grace. Though separated by many miles for the last handful of years, their friendship has never faded. Elissa and her husband Jason, currently live in the Denver area with their two sons.

Ethan is Ryan's only brother. The two grew up in the country life of Southern Arizona. Both with a love of the outdoors, hunting and family, God has been so faithful to grow them into the incredible men that they are. Ethan lives in Arizona with his Fiancée, Raven and her two kids.

Rob and Ryan have known each other for over 10 years! They met working in the oil field, and were reunited through an "only-God" encounter on Facebook marketplace.

Rob, his wife Felicia and their beautiful family live here in the Grand Valley.
