Our Story

Dustin is my twin brother and is the undisputed "Best Man." I have had the privilege of standing up with him at his wedding and we have done nearly everything together in our lives. I am thrilled to have him standing next to me when I marry the woman of my dreams. 

Dustin Snyder

Jake has been a good friend of mine since first or second grade. The man invented the spiky hair and may or may not have broken my thumb in a baseball game. He and his wife are super close to Courtney and I and I am incredibly thankful that he can be a part of my special day.

Jake Dillon

Ben has been a friend of mine since second grade as well. We always did things together from playing football at recess to doing choir exams together in middle school. His friendship has meant the world to me and I am thrilled to have him be a part of this important day. 

Ben Dotson 

Has been a friend of the groom since sixth grade. He may have come late to the friendship, but that does not make him any less important to the group. Pool parties at his and his parents house were staples of summer growing up and his friendship has meant a lot to me. I'm happy to have him standing up with me to celebrate this day.

Jammer Miles

Has been a friend of the groom since second grade and once put the groom in a leg lock under a set of computers. Quite an unusual way to start a friendship, but its still something we talk about all the time. Our mutual love of sports and sports trivia have us debating and watching the Reds quite a bit. I'm glad he can join me on this special day.

Andrew Bowers

I have known him for over ten years from our times at Twinsburg. I am now lucky enough to call him my brother in-law. He has always been someone i can call for anything I need and I can basically blame him for how much bourbon I currently own. I am very happy to have him standing up with me.

Jared Younce

I have been friends with Jake for about 10 years. We joke that I won him in the divorce between him and his ex girlfriend. Jake is someone who lives far away, but is someone who constantly keeps in contact. He and I have watched How I Met Your Mother so many times that we can basically recite the lines. I am thrilled to have him with me on my wedding day.

Jacob Hamm

Kaleb has been a friend of mine for about 7 years since he enlisted in the military. He is my right hand man at work and knows how to get me fired up about sports. We have a mutual love of sports and fantasy football, so Courtney this is who you have to blame. I'm very happy to have him standing up with me on my wedding day.

Kaleb Evans

The start of our friendship is up for debate. One day we were suddenly inseparable! Taylor is one of the sweetest people I have ever met and has a heart of gold! I am blessed to have this beautiful human by my side on this day and every other day. 

Taylor Humphreys

Aaron is my longest friend. Despite moving 800 miles away during our freshman year of high school, Aaron and I have stayed in contact and celebrated our lives milestones together from afar.  Our trips to visit one another are some of my favorite memories. I am so thankful to have her beside me and her little girl, Freya, leading the way down the aisle as a flower girl on our special day.

Hattie is the sassy best friend everybody needs in their life. Hattie cheers you on and will stand up for you in a heartbeat. As my friendship with Hattie has developed, we slowly realized we are very similar people. From our love for dogs to our love of Taco Bell, I am so grateful I get to share similar interests, hobbies, and (scarily enough) thought processes. I could not imagine walking through this process without her! 

Hattie Dillon

Cady welcomed me into the ranks with open arms and is a person I know I can go to about anything. I was blessed to get to know her as a friend first and now a sister. Cady helped me through the emotional rollercoaster ride that was the Vampire Diaries, keeps me from sleeping with geese, and is the one person I can trust to always follow me to the bathroom to finish our conversations. I am so thankful to have such a beautiful soul as part of our day. 

Cady Snyder

Morgan is one of the most genuine people I have ever met. I am so excited to be officially gaining her as a sister in May, even though I gained her as a sister a long time ago. Morgan is my favorite line dancing buddy, even though I am absolutely no good at it! She is one of the biggest cheerleaders for all those she loves and I am grateful that she has welcomed me into her family. I look forward to all of the memories we can continue making in the years to come! 

Morgan Younce

When I first started teaching, Brandi was assigned as my mentor. What started out as me being terrified of her, quickly became spending lunch and plans together, to SOS symbols across the hallway. The next thing I knew, I was being called "Mom" by her and "Grandma Courtney" by her children. Her family quickly became mine as well and we spent holidays and family meals together. I am grateful for her love, support and her allowing me to be a part of her family's lives. I am thankful to have her by my side, her babe, E'Lora, leading the way as a flower girl and her daughter, Nevaeh, as another bridesmaid!

Brandi Hembree

Nevaeh is Brandi's daughter that I have gotten the privilege of watching her learn and grow over the last four years. Nevaeh is a bright and imaginative young lady who loves to read and build and absolutely adores Drew! I could not imagine not having my "granddaughter," as part of our big day!
