Wedding Party

Joshua Laib - Maid of Honor
The Maid of Honor who is made of honor. Josh is Hannah's brother/twin. They have been partners in crime since he convinced her to smoke all of their grandma's cigarettes with him at the ripe old age of 5. They have been there for one another through some of the hardest times and have been one another's biggest supporters in the best of times. She was also his best man, and it has been said that she gave the best, "best man" speech of all time.
Jenny Gutierrez - Bridesmaid
Hannah and Jenny met in India doing mission work together. This work mostly consisted of singing Indian songs to children and drinking red bulls. Jenny is one of the most joyful people to be around and has one of the most infectious laughs. This laugh can be heard after hearing one of Hannah's classic jokes.
Amanda Eisenman - Bridesmaid
Hannah and Amanda met working together and overtime became close friends. Amanda has a huge heart and would sacrifice anything for the ones she loves. Amanda famously gave Hannah's number to Matt and will be held responsible for the success of the marriage.
Angela Heroux - Bridesmaid
Angela and Hannah are sister-in-laws. Overtime they came to learn that they liked all of the same things. Dancing, Champagne, New Girl, and giggling. Dr. Angela is one of the smartest and hardest working people we all know. She is also Hannah's dad's favorite child.
Kelsey Laib - Bridesmaid
Kelsey and Hannah are cousins, but Kelsey was Hannah's first friend. Kelsey has always been wise and someone who has navigated life with grace. In her prime, Kelsey knew all the words to every Emo song ever written. She can head bang with the best of them...
Rachael Laib - Bridesmaid
Rachael and Hannah are also sister-in-laws. They met when Hannah was in her most annoying stage, a 14 year old. And still, Rachael took Hannah under her wing, introduced her to coffee, and took her to see "The 40 Year Old Virgin." Rachael is a Saint and is always offering a helping hand to those in need or taking interest in others and their stories. Rachael also knows all of the words to Shoop and is one of the founders of the "Laib Jiggle" (A famous dance).
Mackenzie Gathright - Bridesmaid
Mackenzie and Hannah met in church when Hannah tried to talk to her and Mackenzie just stared blankly at her. Mack has the ability to talk and engage with just about anyone and make them feel comfortable. She also may be funnier than Hannah. Some of Mackenzie's favorite things include: Eggs, her family, and singing Karaoke to Creed songs.
Tori Mitchell - Bridesmaid
Tori and Hannah met in college and became fast friends. Tori is one of the sweetest and most joyful people you will meet. She will laugh with you, cry with you, and always show up when you need her. Tori was the first of our friends to have her own home and ushered us into adulthood. Midnights consisting of Just dance, Taco Bell, and watching the Thunder make the finals. Most of our best memories are with and because of Tori.
Andy Hailey - Best Man
Andy and Matt have been friends since early high school and even remained great friends after Matt hit Andy with a golf club - to the face! On accident, of course. The next morning, Matt followed that up with making a hole-in-one on the golf course he and Andy played together weekly in the summers. What a good friend! Andy enjoys long walks along the beach with his better half, a strong Amaretto Sour and considers himself Oklahoma's own Happy Gilmore of Hockey. How fitting!
Brandon McCool - Groomsman
The brother that any sports nerd wants. Big brother, slightly bigger nerd. They have shot hoops together, played catch together, and to this day tie each other if not escape one another by one stroke every other round on the golf course together. Matt was honored to be a part of Brandon's beautiful wedding in 2012 and blessed to become an uncle for the first time in 2017!
Dylan Broughton - Groomsman
Matt met Dylan while working together at Mahogany in 2019. Dylan loves his wine, whiskey/bourbon, and sports just like Matt does. Dylan's love for wine far exceeds his love for most things in life, so much so that Matt has witnessed Dylan shed tears over an older vintage Cabernet. He lives in Scottsdale, so when Scottsdale trips are on the calendar, he looks forward to hosting our groups and adding more to our experience! Unfortunately, Dylan is a staunch fan of OSU.
Joshua Hurley - Groomsman
Josh met Matt playing in a local poker league at a bar. If memory serves well, they both made the final table that night and after a couple beers and passing chips back and forth, they were fast friends. Josh is an avid golfer and loves the game so much, that he once taught the game back home in New Mexico! He is Hannah and Matt's most vocal cheerleader and has always supported their partnership. That's probably because Hannah didn't judge him when meeting him for the first time after he was just in a fight ;) Josh loves poker, golf, and overall having a good time.
Seth Ervin - Groomsman
Seth and Matt have known each other since the days that they were working together, also with Sebastian at Nonna's! Seth is king of the Whodunnit dinner theater if you've ever attended one before! Very talented in acting and improv. No friendship group is complete without someone who can make any room burst out in laughter and Seth is that dude. He can't beat Matt in golf, poker, or really much of anything. Well, he maybe beat Matt to getting hitched and having kids, and moving overseas...? One thing is for sure, Seth is an amazing person and Matt will never be as funny as Seth!
Nate Hamstead - Groomsman
When Nate and Matt met on the poker tables at the casino, they couldn't stand each other. Then, they discovered a common passion for OU athletics. More common passions about golf, poker, and sports overall. Naturally, he's the token Chicago Cubs fan of Matt's friend group. Ironically, Matt has always liked the Chicago White Sox. They've been roommates multiple times, with heated debates over fantasy draft picks or when Tiger would win his next major. Competitive like brothers!
Kevin Foor - Groomsman
Kevin and Matt have known each other since junior high. Diehard Sooner fan and good athlete, he runs a better 40-time than Matt. (Yes, we timed it at a nearby local park in early college.) Kevin, better known as "K4" with his last name, is easily that friend who just happens to be smarter than everyone in the room. Except, for when it comes to trying to enter a local college watering hole underage... More details can be provided by K4 upon request! Easily the most chosen drinking companion of Matt's friends while still in Norman.
Sebastian Celis - Groomsman
Matt met Sebastian back in 2012 on a night out for a friend's birthday party dinner. Sebastian was the server taking care of the party at Zio's in OKC. His exuberance for taking care of others and positivity was so contagious that night, that he ended up coming out with the group after his shift! Matt and Sebastian shortly thereafter worked together for a year at Nonna's. The rest is history. Sebastian and his fiancée Lesly will be getting married on 10.10.24 in Medellin, Colombia. After their honeymoon, they will be flying to Oklahoma City to be a part of this celebration! He must somewhat approve of Matt and Hannah getting married...
