Wedding Party

Officiant

Josh Hallmark
Josh Hallmark - Officiant
Mack met Josh when he was stationed in South Korea. Josh was his shop supervisor and one of his best friends while stationed overseas. Josh's guidance and mentorship has helped make Mack a better Airman and a better man with his booming smooth voice and facial expressions. Josh has the unique ability to speak with his heart in a meaningful way, therefore we chose him to be our officiant.

Bridesmaids

Theresa Dodson
Theresa Dodson - Maid of Honor
Theresa is my sister! As my dad likes to remind me, I prayed and prayed for a little sister when I was little and God answered my prayers! Theresa is 8 years younger than I am which made growing up together and sharing a room challenging at times. As we grew older our bond grew as well and now we are extremely close. I couldn't imagine getting married without her at my side!
Gelsey Hall
Gelsey Hall - Bridesmaid
Gelsey and I both work at Alston Ridge Elementary! Gelsey came to ARE my second year there and taught in the same hallway I did, not to mention we had a lot of communication about a mutual student that connected us. Gelsey and I's friendship really blossomed when a group of teachers went to a Luke Bryan concert and we got to talking between singing along to Luke Bryan's songs! Now I consider Gelsey one of my best friends and couldn't imagine life without my 'Captain America' to my 'Batman'.
Kendra Zovack
Kendra Zovack - Bridesmaid
Kendra is my little sister from my sorority in college! She was one of five girls that joined our sorority in Fall 2011. I remember the first time I met her we sitting and talking during a bid party at the 'Old Rocky's'. After getting to know her, I found out she was this wild child who loved country music and drinking. Kendra chose me as her big sister and my life has never been the same! We have had late nights in college, countless adventures, late night phone calls, numerous life chats, and so much more! I can't wait for her to stand by my side when I say 'I do'.
Annie O’Brien
Annie O’Brien - Bridesmaid
Annie and I also worked together at Alston Ridge Elementary until she moved away for love! We worked on different grades but grew close when we bought the Country Mega Ticket with a few other teachers! Mack and Annie's husband are also close, so we now spend weekends visiting each other either here in Raleigh or in New Bern. When we are all together it is always a great time filled with lots of laughs and great adventures! I am glad to have Annie standing by my side as one of my bridesmaids!
Christina McGinty
Christina McGinty - Bridesmaid
Christina was one of my roommates my Senior year of college and also one of my sorority sisters! Christina and I had many late nights together in college. I could always count on her to be there when I needed someone to talk to. One of the things I missed after graduation was being able to walk down the hall to sit in her room and talk for hours! Christina was always there for me throughout college and I am glad she can be there at my side when I marry Mack!
Aubrey Umholtz
Aubrey Umholtz - Bridesmaid
Aubrey is my brothers girlfriend, but she is more than that she's part of the family! Aubrey has a heart of gold and unimaginable patience to put up with my brother and our our crazy family! Everytime I visit home and get to hangout with her more our friendship grows and I find out we have more and more in common! Over the last 3 years getting to know Aubrey she has become like a sister to me and I couldn't imagine her not being one of my bridesmaids!

Groomsmen

Anthony O’Brien
Anthony O’Brien - Bestman
OB came as a package deal with Danielle’s friend Annie, and honestly, I feel like we got a great deal. Our personalities are very similar and we hit it off when we met. He is an incredible outspoken friend who has opened his house to us many times to come hangout. OB has been one of my shortest friendships, but it has been just as meaningful as any of my other long-term friendships, and I look forward to continuing to be his friend.
Jeremy Moore - Groomsman
Jeremy is my GBF, lol. We meet at USF in the architecture program. I was more than fortunate to go to his wedding to his wonderful husband Corey. Without Jeremy my time at USF would have been a lot more dull and barley livable. He was always my sounding board when I wanted to do something drastic, and I was there to help keep him from murdering classmates and TAs when they said or did something stupid. He has helped me when I was down, supported me when I needed help, and just always answered the phone when I call. And he was always my go to person when I wanted to play hooky from life to go ride roller-coaster at Bush Gardens. Now he gets to stand beside me on another adventure. of a life time.
Yash Shah - Groomsmen
Yash and I became fast friends during my first year at NCSU. I transferred in as a sophomore into the Architecture program and he had started the year before and had already bonded with the class. He helped me out in understanding any inside jokes I had no clue about and to fill me in on anything else I needed to learn since I skipped the first year classes. He has been my partner in may projects and even when were in completely different classes we still make time to hang out and help each other as much as we can. I am proud to have him by my side to merry Danielle.
Kenny Dodson
Kenny Dodson - Groomsmen
Kenny is Danielle's brother! He and I have much in common. We both like to be outdoors, shooting guns, and drinking beers. Over the past few year of being with Danielle I have noticed how close they are with their weekly phone calls and always being there when one of them needs something. I can't wait to continue to grow our relationship and call him my brother-in-law!

Flower Girl

Addyson O'Brien
Addyson O'Brien - Flower Girl
Addyson is Annie and Anthony's daughter! She is such a happy go lucky little girl who loves dancing, fish, and our dogs, Karma and Athena! We have gotten to spend the past two years getting to watch her grow and spoil her when we see her!
