Wedding Party
Our Best Friends!!
Bridesmaids
When deciding who I wanted to stand beside me when I married my best friend, I realized how overwhelmingly blessed I am. I have always prayed that God would place people in my life that support and love me like no other, and boy has He delivered over the years. This bridal party is made up of some of the most important women in my life and I couldn't imagine my wedding day without any of them.
Daisy Corley - Maid of Honor
My built-in bestie for life! Daisy is my twin sister and the best friend in the world. She has played a major role in shaping me into the person that I am today. I couldn't think of anyone better to be my Maid of Honor.
Abigail Pierce Neely - Bridesmaid
One of the best things to come from Phi Mu! Abigail is Daisy's Big, but she quickly became one of our greatest friends after only a little bit of knowing each other! She is such an amazing person and role model in my life!
Ally Ross - Bridesmaid
My little sister! Daisy and I always wanted a little sister and God gave us the best! Ally is the coolest person you will ever meet and she is always encouraging me to be my best self!!
Anita Whitner - Bridesmaid
Another amazing Phi Mu friend! Kade actually told us both individually that we would be good friends, and, well, he was right! We starting hanging out during my 1st quarter at Tech and haven't stopped since!
Baily Sciara - Bridesmaid
What a friend she is! Baily, Daisy, and I became friends in 2019 during a time where we were all looking for someone to lean on. Baily was truly an answered prayer and I am so thankful for her continuous friendship over the years! Oh, and she even played a part in getting me and Kade together :))))
Emily Armand - Bridesmaid
Emily and I met through so many different things at Tech, but it wasn't until we both began our terms on Panhellenic that we became close, and we haven't separated since! Emily is almost always my first call about anything because I know she will either know the answer or give me true, loving advice!
Katie Abraham - Bridesmaid
My sorority Big!! Katie is truly the best person to have as a role model not only in Phi Mu, but in all of my college experiences! Katie is a constant reminder that I never have to compromise my faith to fit a certain mold, and I should always chase my dreams!
Landace Abshire - Bridesmaid
My sorority twin! Landace has been one of the greatest blessings I have found in Phi Mu! She never fails to make me smile and cheer me up when I am feeling down! No matter the situation, I know I can always count on her!
Megan Donohue - Bridesmaid
My girl since Freshman year of high school! She chose me to be her assistant at a football game for yearbook and then told me her whole life story- and the rest is history! Megan has always been such a loyal and constant friend for me and I couldn't be happier to have known her and be loved by her for so many years!
Groomsmen
Kase Ellerbe - Best Man
Kase has been one of my best friends since we met in 8th grade! His friendship has been one of the most rewarding and stable things in my life, and I can count on him for anything (unless its a beach trip he can't afford). Kase goes LSU, so Dixie and I love to visit! Single
Brody Barnhill - Groomsman
Brody picked me out in our very first class at Tech and immediately started calling himself my best friend (he hasn't stopped). Whether it's poker nights, football games, or trips across the states, I know Brody is going to keep my weekends busy! Single
Carson Barnhill - Groomsman
I also met Carson on my first day at Tech! He may be Brody's twin, but he's just like me in the way he's practical, ambitious, and honest to a fault. He is one of the smartest and kindest people I know - and he's single. Fun Fact: Carson Helped me pick out Dixie's ring!
Jack Irby - Groomsman
Jack and I were in the youth group at church together, and our relationship has snowballed from there. He is hands down the hardest working, selfless, most easygoing man that I know (and my all time favorite college roommate). Happily married, sorry ladies.
Jacob Gunter - Groomsman
To know Jacob Gunter is to love him! Football and Youth trips brought us together, but pool parties at Jarrett's and Taco Bell runs made us best friends. His unwavering faith and selflessness should be what every young man strives for. Hopefully, he'll stop flirting with Dixie once we're married. Single
Jacob Neely - Groomsman
Jacob is my homie in law. We started hanging out because of his wife, Abigail, but he quickly became one of my favorite people to be around. Jacob is always down for a good time and made me excited to go to Phi Mu events. I admire the way he treats Abigail, and we're excited to be married friends!
Jarrett Berthelot - Groomsman
Where do I begin? After going to high school together, Jarrett has been my roommate for my entire college tenure. He takes long showers and even longer naps. He has always been there for me and asked nothing in return, even when I'm mean to him. There is no one else I'd rather have stand beside me on the big day! Unfortunately, he is taken.
Micheal Ashy - Groomsman
BIG SKINNY! Big Mike is also from Oak Grove, and I actually became friends with him through Kase. He is truly one of a kind. A party animal, a ladies man, and a fierce friend. Michael will never let a friendship die, and he's the first person I'd call to have my back. SINGLE
Reed Edwards - Groomsman
I know Reed through Louisiana Tech's Steel Bridge Team; he's taught me a lot: how to work the waterjet, that you gotta spend money to make money, and the proper way to throw beads to ladies in New Orleans. Reed is a natural giver and he lives for a good time! He has a girl and needs to put a ring on it.
Flower Girl
Olivia Bayles - Dixie's Niece
My sweet niece! We are so excited to include her in our day!
Ushers
Jacob Ross - Dixie's Brother
Jacob and Jackson didn't become my brothers until I was 10 years old, but since then, they have completely taken me in as their sister. I am so thankful for their support and love over the years, and I am proud to call them my brothers! I am so excited to have them help in our big day!
Jackson Ross - Dixie's Brother
Jacob and Jackson didn't become my brothers until I was 10 years old, but since then, they have completely taken me in as their sister. I am so thankful for their support and love over the years and I am proud to call them my brothers! I am so excited to have them help in our big day!
