Stefan is my favorite brother. He has been a constant source of comedy, encouragement and help in my life. Being the closest to me in birth order, Stefan cleared the path for me in life. We attended the same college (Go Gators!) and are also fraternal brothers. Stefan is the a husband to my hilarious sister-in-law, Rebecca, and father to my beautiful and first niece, Lucy. Together with Chris, there are no other brothers I would want beside me on our wedding day.

My VERY BEST FRIEND! Jenny and I have known each other since elementary school. Although, we didn't become best friends until sophomore year of high school! In high school, we were both Cheerleaders. Jenny even got me a job at Maggie Moo's back in the day! Jenny has been by my side through all my up & downs, triumphs and nightmares. She is my partner in crime! Jenny provides me with a example of how marriages should be. Jenny and Joe will celebrate their 6th wedding anniversary this year! They have two beautiful and sweet kids, Wyatt and Tinley. Jenny is a gem of a best friend and I cannot wait to have her stand right next to me on my special day!

I met Ida the first day of sixth grade in Spanish Class. I transferred to a different school and had not made any new friends. As the lunch proceeded Spanish class, I quickly asked my new classmate if I could join her and her friends for lunch. Being the sweetheart she is, Ida said 'of course'. Being friends with Ida makes living 3 time zones apart a breeze. We seldom go more than a few days without talking. And although we may live on separate coasts, we make an annual effort to visit one another. This June, Ida is marrying the love of her life, Patrick, it Oahu, Hawaii!

Chris is my favorite brother. He has proved himself to be a great source of advice in my personal and professional life. We even lived together in Tampa before he moved to Hong Kong. Chris has been a big supporter of Danielle and me since day one. I cannot thank him enough for the support in the good and, especially in, the harder times. Chris and his devoted wife, Allison, will be traveling from Hong Kong, China to attend our wedding! This is just one of the many sacrifices Chris has made for me. Together with Stefan, there are no other brothers I would want beside me on our wedding day.

I've known Kurt since childhood. As kids we completed scouts together. As teenagers we worked for his dad and went to high school together. And now, as adults, we even live in the same city as a result of our careers. Kurt and the entire Fadden clan have been and continue to be like family to me. I look forward to the shenanigans Kurt will provide as a part of our wedding and especially on the dance floor!

Bree is my sister (in-law). She's so much more to me than that! When I have a problem or need help or need a laugh, I call Bree before I call Michael. Historically, Bree has not been a fan of my previous boy friends, but has been Jace's cheerleader the last 3 years. She is also the mother to my two favorite nephews (KJ & Tanner) and future niece (name being withheld until her due date in May)! Any time I need help or advice, I reach out to Bree because she my helper, advice giver and confidant! Love you, sissy!

Ladies & Gentlemen, I introduce you to the Tom Petty. Yes, he may share his name with famous American singer, but his song and dance skills far surpass that of the late entertainer. I met Tom at South Tampa Fellowship (STF). We connected (and had rather heated conversations) about Florida and the Florida State football teams. Tom is married to the lovely, Stephanie. Currently, they have one sweet daughter, Everly Grace. Although he is a Noles fan, Tom is a true friend and I am thankful to have him be part of our wedding day!

Cousins are the siblings God forgot to give you. Terran is more than my cousin, she's one of my best friends. She and I have gotten into more trouble than I can remember. From attending the same pre-school to being roommates at the University of Northern Colorado, Terran has proven to be one of the most genuine, kind people I know! Terran, too, has been a source of wedded encouragement for me and Jace. She and her husband, Dan, have been married for more than 5 years. They recently finished building their second home together in Colorado. I'm sure the wedding will also provide them with a small retreat from the process of building a brand new home from the ground up!

Rebecca is my future sister-in-law. She is one of the most selfless and patient people around. I guess being the oldest of six successful sibling, has provided Rebecca with ample opportunity to practice and prefect her patience. I have never even seen her raise her voice in situations i know I would be losing my temper. She truly exemplifies grace under fire. She and her family are devout Christians and provide with Jace and I with a perfect example of how to live a Godly marriage and life. Rebecca is the mother to my (future) niece, Lucy! I can't wait to have Rebecca with me on our wedding day as I know I will lean on her when things don't go as planned.

Michael is my future brother-in-law. He is the oldest, and only sibling to my fiance. Michael is undoubtedly the most easy-going guy in the wedding party. Everyone, myself included, enjoys Michael's presence as he is a natural born comedian and always willing to go with the flow. Michael is also the husband to my amazing sister-in-law, Bree. She was truly instrumental in helping me plan and execute my proposal to Danielle. He is also the father to both ring bearers, KJ & Tanner.

Grant is the coolest 15-year-old you may ever meet. He is a hard working, kind and sincere teenager. It is no wonder he is popular and well received by his peers and elders. Both Danielle and I remark how smart and 'with-it' Grant is. We know Grant has a successful future ahead of him. We are excited to see how he continues to grow. We hope (pray!) that Grant will attend UF and become a gator baseball player! Chomp! Chomp!

Allison is my future sister in law. Allison is so thoughtful and kind. A perfect example is Allison's thoughtfulness occurred within a short time of knowing her. Allison asked me to take part in her wedding day and walk with Jace down the aisle at her and Chris' (Jace's eldest brother) wedding. This was amazingly thoughtful as Allison and I had only met a few times prior to her wedding and Jace and I had only been dating for 3 months! Maybe she had a sixth sense that he and I would eventually get married and she wouldn't have to explain who this random girl was in her wedding photos! In addition, she is traveling all the way from Hong Kong to be here with us! Allison is a vision of grace and I am so excited to have her part of our special day!
