Ellie met Kendall (Kenny, Ken, K-fleer) in pharmacy school. During that time they have been "just coworkers" and "just roommates" and now Kenny is "just Ellie's maid of honor" and likely at the wedding she will be "just the girl swing dancing on the dance floor"
The bride and groom are placing bets on what color hair Kenny will have at the wedding (Ellie; pink, Ben; green) iykyk
Rian James - Best Man
Rian has been Ben's partner in crime for many years, starting in elementary school. From shooting Rian's older brother (Conner) in the eye with nerf darts and facing the wrath of a very angry Bart Pruett after a night out to now being featured in each others' weddings, Ben and Rian have been thick as thieves. It's a good thing they get along so well, because it takes a lot to forgive someone for denting the hood of a '99 Acura 3.2 TL.
Bailey Neff - Bridesmaid
Bailey is Ellie's forever friend (ex-wife, iykyk)- over the course of their friendship they have survived soccer hell weeks, living in a (haunted) mosque, leg cramps on rendezvous bowl in Jackson, and Bai sleeping on a twin mattress on Ellie's living room floor for 6 months.
Tanner Dill - Groomsman
Tanner has always been the Brennan Huff to Ben's Dale Doback, but in recent years Tanner has also been the Alex (Hitch) Hitchens to Ben's Albert. If it weren't for Tanner's matchmaking skills, Ben never would have met his Allegra Cole. Tanner is now America's beer man which is a good thing because he definitely needs an abundance of it for a day on the golf course.
Emilie (Rose) Williams - Bridesmaid
Em is Ellie'e OG sister from another mister. She is C for cool, not cringy or Creed x10. She also secretly wants to be in Ben's rock band. Em will one day be the Janna (ie trip planner) and Ellie will be the Beth (ie good sport trip goer)
Justin Lutz - Groomsman
Ben and Justin have known each other since middle school and became good friends in high school. Justin has been given the most nicknames out of anyone that I know, unfortunately most of them can't be listed. Though his names have changed throughout their friendship, Justin has always remained a terror on the card table, a mediocre welder, but above all: a good sport.
Haylie (Faith) Williams - Bridesmaid
Haylie is Ellie's second sister from another mister. She is a fellow T-swift and book lover. She is always there to keep Ellie grounded and honest and is the little sister Ben never had. Oh also, Ellie wants to know if she can borrow a contact? ;)
Clay Rouse - Groomsman
Clay and Ben have known each other since middle school. Clay has been the cool upper class-men, the poker night host, and even the employer to Ben throughout their friendship. Clay is a great host for bush parties, but if you're looking to have a successful hunting trip, you might consider a different partner.
Morgan Pruett - Bridesmaid
Morgan is Ben's older sister and even though she graduated from CSU she has still become a great partner in crime to Ellie when it comes to teasing Ben, especially when he loses at Monopoly (even though it does suck to be a CSU ram)
Drew (Thomas) Rone - Groomsman
Drew is Ellie's younger brother. Drew was a vegan and then progressed to a vegetarian in the beginning of Ben and Drew's friendship. This diet selection was made evident when Marvin took them on a pheasant hunt around Christmas. We all love an ethical hunt, but Drew took it to new extremes with his "warning shot" system.
Mav - Honorary Best Man
Mav guy has been there through every step of Benellie and will be there in spirit the day of the wedding (the venue doesn't allow animals)
