My one and only sister, how things have changed for us! We've come a long way since childhood, now here we are both planning weddings! I'm so grateful to have you by my side throughout this whole process. Thank you so much for the BEST bachelorette party a sister could ever ask for! I've cherished these special moments we've shared and will continue to do so! I love you so much, para siempre mi amor! <3
Samantha Schubert - Bridesmaid
Oh my Sammy sweets! I'm so honored to have you by my side on this wonderful journey! You've always been such a caring, kind, and adventurous friend! Throughout all the college days, moves across states, I can still count on you for anything. We always seem to pick up right where we left off! Thank you for being such a great friend and kind soul. We've had amazing times dancing to the beat of our own drums! I can't wait for this special day, you know the bass fairies will be in full force! Cheers amiga!
Charlotte Threlkeld - Bridesmaid
Charlotte, my dear friend is proof that blondes really do have more fun! There's never a dull moment with you! From parties in college, concerts, and music festivals there's no dance floor that's safe with us around! Thank you for being a good friend through the ups and downs. You're sense of humor and wittiness is unmatched amiga! I'm so proud of you, and love getting to know you throughout the years. I'm so thankful for you and I can't wait to have you by my side!
Nick Sharpe - Groomsman
My older brother Nicholas. The guide and strong arm we younger siblings never ask for, but are the upmost appreciative. He has been a rock for this family ever since I can remember. As the elder sibling, he is who I looked up to and practically mimicked as I was growing up. Nick taught me so much in this life that I will cherish forever. From teaching me fundamentals of sports and giving me that competitive edge, I carry with me today, as he was never an easy opponent on the field of play. To guiding me in the right directions of some tough decisions in the teenage years. He is the knot that never loosens in this family. Strong willed and loving. Making sure everyone is happy and having a great time.
Continuing his role modeling, I couldn't be more proud of the life he has created for himself and his beautiful family. Even more blessed to have my very first sister in law and a niece to love endlessly! There was no doubt in my mind, that I wanted him to be apart of my special day. Love you big bro!
Michael Sharpe - Groomsman
Michael, the taller and better looking younger brother. The one whose style never alters from peak relevance in society. From Banana Republic to Ralph Lauren this guy looks darn good at all times! I thoroughly love getting your "hand-me-up" clothes as it keeps me from having to go shopping (ask Gloria about me shopping...yikes).
Not only does your physical appearance brighten up a room. Your inner personality and kinder spirit radiates from your massive heart. As your older brother that is one thing that I admire most about you. The love you share for those around you is untouchable.
I like to think that I created your toughness as I made you wrestle the "Kyle Bear" continuously. The Family Room, Basement, Grandma and Grandpas house, any given restaurant, movie theater, you name it. I was poking your buttons like it was my job! Then one day, the quiet beast unleashed his wrath on me.. well deserved and about time! That was the day I learned my little brother can and will stand up for himself when it is absolutely warranted. But, we all know that is just me "tooting my own horn" your strength comes from within. The same strength Mom and Dad have distilled in us from before we were born. That Love and honesty is the most powerful tool one can carry in this world.
I appreciate all the times we have shared together. From fishing, playing sports together, going to concerts and dancing the night away. To waking up on Christmas morning to see that all of the presents have been organized by name, color and size.. I have sincerely loved watching you grow into the man you are today. I love you Michael!
Michael Edwards - Groomsman
Mikey Mike!, Mike Jr., Cheesy Ed's. Moose. Where do I even begin? From the days I'd slap your helmet after you shake and baked my ankles into non existence on the football field, to you standing up next to me as I get married. The memories are endless. You have been one of my best friends from day one and I wouldn't wish it any other way. From opponents on the football field to being team mates and hanging out outside school on the daily. We sure tore it up wherever and whenever we were together.
Today, I like to think we still tear it up! Even if we are heading home at a reasonable hour of 9PM.... LOL! I wouldn't change any moment in time with you brother. You have always been there for me on the come up when the Lord knows I needed it most. I will never forget the bond we share. Thank you for being you and thank you for loving me as your own brother. Blessed to have you stand up next to me on my wedding day! Love you Moose.
Kashton Edwards - Ring Bearer
Little Kash! My non-blooded nephew! Love watching you grow and more importantly, I love watching your parents grow daily through their love for you. Gloria and I are honored to have you bring us our rings on our special day!
Millie Claire Sharpe - Flower Princess
Millie! Our favorite first niece! From the moment you came into this world the Sharpe and Duncan family grew stronger in their own. Two Families became one and you are at the center of our universe. Your personality shows the love poured onto you so much that there is no doubt in our minds, you will change this world for the better! Shine bright Millie! You are the diamond of our eyes and Gloria and I will cherish you for eternity!
