My best man and best friend. Sam is my older brother and the person I have always looked up to the most. He is loving, hardworking, passionate, and very intentional. We have shared many life experiences that have done nothing but bring us closer together. There is no other person who knows or understands me better and that’s why he will be right by me on my wedding.

Joe is my younger brother and one of my three built in best friends. Ironically, Joe and I fought often when we were younger (usually instigated by me). I always wanted Joe to look up to me, but as I have gotten older, I find myself looking up to him. Joe is smart, selfless, generous, attentive, honest, and excels in all that he does. Joe has brought so much joy to my life and that’s why he will be beside me on my wedding.

Ben is my youngest brother and the final member of the Kigerbros. It’s not an understatement to say that life wouldn’t be near the same without Ben. Even from a young age, Ben and I have always been close. We share many interests, music, movies/tv shows, sports, and even attended the same college. What I admire most about Ben is he does not live by fear. Ben is always down for whatever, is kind, funny, loyal, and driven. Ben is the life of the party and that’s why he will be by my side at the wedding

Cole is truly unlike any friend I have ever had. Cole is a perfect example of how God does immeasurably more than what we can fathom. When I was going to college, I prayed for good friends but Cole is truly a brother. I have never had someone (outside my family) love me like Cole has. Cole has always been super intentional in our relationship. He doesn’t just care about me but also my soul. Cole is so many things that I want to be. Intentional, joyful, genuine, caring, loving, and a ton of fun. I was by Cole’s side at his wedding and I knew that he’d be in the same spot at mine.

Patrick is the longest tenured friend that I still have. Patrick and I grew up playing little league but didn’t become very close until highschool. Patrick has always been someone that I admired, smart, hardworking, kind, funny, and a Louisville fan. Very few people do I still keep in my circle from high school but Patrick has always been there. From hanging out at his house in highschool, to taking him on family vacations, to his place in Lexington, to all the summers playing golf and tennis, Patrick has been right there and it can’t be any different at my wedding.

Brock has been many things to me including; a teammate, friend, youth group member, and a roommate. Brock is one of the few people who has seen me in almost every stage of my life. When you live with someone you truly get to know them and I’m glad I’ve had that opportunity with Brock. Consistency is a word that comes to mind. Brock has always been true to himself and never changed. Brock has seem me in my highs and lows and he has always been super loyal. He truly cares for me and has encouraged me more than he knows. I may be kicking him out for Madison but I still need him by my side for the wedding.
