Our Wedding

She’s the oldest of six in a beautifully blended family—a natural mama bear who’s kind, stubborn in the best way, and fiercely loyal. A proud mom to her son Jackson, she loves hard, fights harder, and never says no to a little self-care (hello, pedicures and shopping sprees!). He’s the oldest boy of four, with one older sister and two younger brothers. He’s all about the outdoors—hunting, fishing, and driving his boat like he’s captain of the lake. A true blue-collar man, he works long hours and never complains—just gets it done. Together, they’re the perfect balance: heart and hustle, calm and chaos, glam and grit. Built on love, laughter, and long days turned into beautiful memories.

Meet the Couple

The first picture with the three of us! Taken at Jackson’s 2nd birthday party—it gave such a beautiful sense of family and acceptance. This moment was really special, especially since it’s always been just me and Jackson. Xoxo, Jazz

The First Picture 

Our first family outing to Sunny Days Farm. We visited the pumpkin patch, jumped, swung, and met some farm animals—but what made it really special was that it was our first time doing something with Lilie and HK. I’ll never forget how gentle you were with Jackson that day. It meant so much. Xoxo, Jazz

Sunny Days Farm 

This one was special—taken not long after we moved in together on November 1, 2022. We’d been together since July 27, and it was the first time he’d ever lived with a girl—definitely a big change! And for me and Jackson, it was our first time sharing our space, our lives, with someone else. Looking back, this photo really feels like the beginning of something special. Xoxo, Jazz

Our first family session by Amberly

I remember Amberly telling him to dip me, and he was so nervous—you could see it all over his face! I was thinking, “Oh no, he’s gonna dip me too low, his hands are sweating, and I’m going down!” We couldn’t stop laughing. Around that time, he had just started coming around Jackson’s dad’s side of the family. He’s usually shy at first, but this… this was the biggest smile I’d ever seen on him.

Our first pose—just the two of us.

This is the only photo I have—taken by his mom—but it means so much. I’ll never forget how happy Jackson was spending Christmas with Kyle’s family. It was sweet, warm, and full of love. Our first Christmas together, and Kyle made us feel so seen and special. We truly felt like family.

Our First Christmas Together

The moment I knew I wanted to marry Kyle. The first time he ever got Jackson to take a nap—and honestly, it felt like a major win for us both! Sweet, quiet, and unforgettable.

The Moment

Dinner with his family at the Japanese restaurant—he had no idea! The look on his face said it all. He was so happy that day, especially since surprises aren’t something he usually gets. Pretty sure this was also the moment his family fell for me. 😉

Surprised him for his 26th birthday

We went out with friends and had such a fun time—but the sweetest moment was when he surprised me with flowers and a handwritten note that said, “Happy early birthday + Happy Mother’s Day! I love you!” Simple, thoughtful, and straight from the heart.

My 26th Birthday

Kyle was working out of town during the season, so he couldn’t make it to many games—but when he could, he showed up without question. The moments he was there meant the world to both of us.

Jackson’s First Wee Ball Award Ceremony

The first time we all got together at the lake, and I suggested we take a photo—just to capture the memory. Jackson was with his dad that weekend, but being surrounded by everyone still felt so special. It truly felt like one big, happy family. A Memorial Day to remember.

Our First Lake Day Picture Together

This was my first time fishing at State Ponds—and I got to share it with my baby brother and baby sister. But this picture felt the most special. It was the first time I captured them doing something together, and seeing him show Jackson how to fish just made me fall in love with him even more.

First Time at State Ponds

This picture holds all the motivation I needed. It marked a fresh start—not just for me, but for our little family. I knew in that moment that there were great things ahead for us.

The Day I Got My GED

He couldn’t stop smiling—and honestly, it showed. One of my favorite memories with him.

The One Photo Session Kyle Was Actually Excited About!

Our first trip together and our first group photo—even if it’s just a selfie! Honestly, we probably wouldn’t have made it this far without them. Grateful for the best of friends.

This Picture Says True Friendship

This was the moment Jackson’s interest in hunting began. Ever since Kyle took the time to show him how to look down the barrel of a toy shotgun, his love for hunting—real or pretend—took off like wildfire. This is where their bond truly started to grow.

Where It All Started

This was the very first photo we took together as a family for Jackson. By then, Kyle was working back in town and finally getting to experience everyday moments with us—together. It was also our first Halloween trick-or-treating as a family. This was the moment I knew we were meant to be… because it takes someone truly special to love a single mom and honor the bond she shares with her child’s father and his family.

Our First Family Picture

Who knew in this photo that we’d all grow into one big, happy, blended family—not just for Jackson, but for each other, too. This was the first time we experienced the Christmas parade in Gibson with Jackson’s dad’s side of the family. Everyone got along, we had a great time, and Jackson was over the moon with joy. It was one of those moments where everything just started to click—and we truly began to connect.

Who Knew?

This was right around when he asked me what I wanted for Christmas, and I told him—to be your wife and to have your child. As you can see, we were clearly laughing about something… but then again, when are we not laughing together? When are we not smiling?

Around This Time…

A little hectic, but full of magic. Santa was definitely good to one very happy little boy that year. It was also the first time we hosted Christmas at our home—giving my family the chance to celebrate with Jackson, since Christmas is a split holiday. A day full of love, laughter, and making it all work together.

Our Second Christmas Together

Since Easter is a split holiday for Jackson, we wanted to bring everyone together—so we hosted a celebration at our house with both my family and his. It was a chance for everyone to meet and share the day, because deep down, we already knew we were building a forever kind of love. The kids had a blast hunting Easter eggs, and the day was filled with laughter, love, and the sweet reminder of what Easter is all about—hope, new beginnings, and knowing that Jesus is coming back.

Easter at Our Home

Our trip to the aquarium with my baby sister was such a fun and memorable time. I think this is when Emma really started to warm up to Kyle and realized—he’s here for the long haul.

Spring Break at the Aquarium

This was back when Jackson was in Head Start, and his class was part of the local parade. We needed a truck and trailer to pull the float—and Kyle stepped up without hesitation. Total “stepdaddy vibes,” and he owned it. We got the trailer, added hay bales, and decorated it with the teachers and a few other parents to make it festive and fun. It was such a great day, but more than that, it showed just how much Kyle cared. He didn’t just show up—he showed that he was ready for the next step.

Parade Day Memories

This picture is your classic get-together with the in-laws—backyard fun, something on the grill, and good company. Mr. Tim’s usually manning the grill, the ladies handle the sides, and you can always count on Pa Burnley to bring the sweet tea and swat the flies. The boys are either playing with monster trucks, pushing tractors, or just chilling in the sandbox. Everyone’s relaxed, the laughter is easy, and the love is real. And of course, Hannah’s front and center—cheesin’ and always ready for a photo. We were also celebrating Mother’s Day that day, which made it all the more special.

Backyard Vibes with the In-Laws

Who knew that just a month after this picture was taken, I’d be engaged? This photo was taken at my baby brother’s high school graduation—the little boy I’ve always loved and cherished. He was my first little boy, the one who made me a big sister. I’m so proud of the hardworking young man he’s become. Funny enough, we always joked he’d graduate before me. I dropped out, took the long road, and finished later than planned—but I ended up graduating the year before him. Better late than never, right? There were times he wanted to give up, but he didn’t. I helped him through it—and in so many ways, he helped me too. That’s what siblings do. And for a baby brother… he sure turned out to be one of my biggest inspirations.

My Baby Brother’s Graduation

The days leading up to it, Kyle had started acting… different. He was distant, a little secretive, always keeping his phone close. I started to wonder what was going on—was he stressed? Was something wrong? Was he hiding something? My gut knew it wasn’t anything bad, but still, it was enough for me to ask. This night we had our friends Brandon, Lilie, and Harper Kate over. We cooked, hung out, laughed—just had a great time. It was Father’s Day weekend, and Jackson was with his dad. I texted Lilie and said, “Girl, I figured out what was going on with Kyle.” She replied, “What?!” So I sent her the picture, and she lost it: “Oh my God, he really did it! Why couldn’t he do that while we were there?! I could’ve taken pictures and recorded it!” I said, “Girl, you know he’s shy!” After our friends left and we finished cleaning up, I asked Kyle straight up: “What’s going on with you? You’ve been acting weird. Are you stressed? Is something wrong? Is there someone else?” (Not that I believed that—but the man was giving “something’s up” vibes.) He looked at me and said, “Will you marry me?” I was like, “Wait… what?” And again, he said it—“Will you marry me?” I was in complete shock. Of course, I said yes! Then I asked, “So this is why you’ve been acting so weird?” I had told him before—don’t stress about a big proposal. No need for fireworks, a crowd, or getting down on one knee. That just isn’t him, and I didn’t want him to feel like he had to perform something huge to make it real. And just like that, in the quiet of our home, he asked me to be his forever.

The Story Behind Our Engagement

This is the photo we shared after getting engaged. The next day, we went to the lake for his family’s Father’s Day celebration. I kept my hands in my pockets at first—nervous and giddy. When I finally showed the ring, Kyle looked anxious… until his dad laughed and said, “It’s about time,” and his mom beamed, “It’s beautiful—I’m so happy!” It was such a sweet, unforgettable moment.

Posted Our Engagement 

Right after we got engaged, Kyle bought a boat so we could start making memories on the water—just us as a little family. This was our first ride, and Jackson loved it. Now he’s always asking, “Can we ride the boat?” We cruised, we fished, and of course… he took the best nap of his life out there. Around this time, we also went camping at the lake for the very first time. Jackson had a blast! Growing up, my family wasn’t really into camping—my dad doesn’t swim, and my mom just doesn’t like the lake water. But my Papa? He’s a great fisherman and boatman, and some of my favorite memories are on the lake with him, Nana, and with my cousin Brianna. Now we’re making those same kind of memories with our little crew.

First Boat Day & Lake Life Memories 

That year for Father’s Day, I had matching shirts made for Kyle and Jackson. Our little family was really starting to come together, and the bond between them was taking off in the best way. I thought—what better way to show Kyle how much we love and appreciate him? Jackson truly sees him as another dad, and those shirts said it all. 

Father’s Day Surprise 

Oh, this day was a big deal. With Kyle’s crazy work schedule, he misses a lot—but he made it to Jackson’s Pre-K orientation, and that meant everything. We got to meet his teacher together, alongside Jackson’s dad, and it showed just how strong our blended family had become. We were united, supportive, and most importantly, there for Jackson. Secretly… this was one of the moments that made me fall for Kyle even more.

Pre-K Orientation Day 

This picture shows Kyle’s true personality with the kids—especially his nephew and Jackson. He loves playing with them and sometimes even asks their ages just to plan the perfect Nerf gun wars for Jackson. This day was extra special because it’s when we asked the guys to be part of the wedding, while everyone was camping out at the lake. A perfect mix of fun, family, and memories in the making! He’s already a great dad to Jackson, and I know he’ll be just as amazing with our own child someday.

Kyle with the Kids 

After almost two years together, we finally took a trip with Jackson—to Helen! We saw Bigfoot, played arcade games, and ate all kinds of delicious food. It was a trip full of memories I’ll never forget. And shoutout to Kyle for having so much patience when I had none!

First Trip Together with Jackson 

We rushed to get some pictures done because we wanted to create keepsake magnets for everyone to put on their fridge—something meaningful, not just tossed in the trash. We had a photo session using my camera, with my best friend Lilie taking the shots, and I edited them myself. I’ll never forget moments like this one. All I could think about was, When we get up there on that altar, will he be as shy as he was during this session? And that I’d probably be the one trying to keep the mood light and fun.

Save the Date

Our second Halloween trick-or-treating with Jackson’s dad’s side as a blended family was such a blast! It’s become a great tradition because Halloween is really for the kids. Jackson and Buckley both scored tons of candy, and Jackson went all out as a werewolf—definitely scary, not some cute little Power Ranger. We had a great time making memories and sharing the fun together.

Year Two of Trick-or-Treating 

That day was so happy and emotional. I tried on many dresses, but one stood out—the moment I saw myself in the mirror, I smiled the biggest smile and even got emotional. I was surrounded by so much love: my mama, Nana, Gigi, Aunt Jessica, Aunt Donna, my baby sister Emma, my best friend Lilie and her daughter Harper Kate. I hope that when the day comes and we say “I do,” Kyle gets a little teary seeing me in this beautiful gown.

Finding the Dress at David’s Bridal

The moment I found the dress was overwhelming—in the best way. I looked in the mirror, felt so beautiful, and couldn’t help but cry. My mom has been my mom since I was five. She taught me how to tie my shoes, say my ABCs, count, and even helped me tackle writing the number five (which gave me a hard time!). She was always consistent and helped me catch up when I fell behind. So much of who I am today is because of her—and I’ll forever be grateful. I love her so much.

Dress Day with My Mom 

This was our first year taking Christmas pajama pictures in front of the tree—and I was so excited. Growing up, it was something I always dreamed of doing, but never really had the chance. So to finally do it with my own little family felt extra special. Now, Kyle wasn’t exactly eager at first… but I made sure to order the perfect pajamas—Bottomland print, of course—so he was all in. Jackson was buzzing with excitement about Santa coming (and honestly, I was just ready for Santa to drop off gifts and leave!). At this point, we’d been engaged for about six months and had just started wedding planning. It was such a sweet, cozy, sentimental kind of day—one I’ll never forget.

Pajamas in Front of the Tree 

Of course, our yearly photos with Amberly are a must. This year felt extra special—Kyle was more comfortable, more familiar with all of Jackson’s family, and the smiles came easy. Being engaged this time around made it all feel more meaningful and sentimental. We’re really doing this—getting married—and these photos captured that feeling perfectly.

Our Fall/Christmas Photos with Amberly

This was taken at the Regions end-of-year Christmas party with my coworkers—and what a fun, unforgettable night! We laughed, ate good food, took way too many pictures, and just enjoyed being together. These ladies have really grown on me. They’d give me advice, listen when I needed to vent (especially about Kyle leaving clothes everywhere—I swear I almost tripped over them more than once!), and always knew how to talk me off the ledge when I got worked up. We shared so many laughs and even more heartfelt talks. They’ll probably never know just how much all of that meant to me. When I announced my engagement, the love and support from each of them made it even more special. Honestly, this group played a big part in helping me and Kyle become the couple we are today.

Regions Christmas Party

I almost forgot about this picture. Kyle had gone out and bought Jackson his first pair of waders so they could bond and do some “guy stuff” together. Jackson had started showing an interest in hunting, so Kyle took him duck hunting this past season with his buddy Tristan. Let’s just say… Jackson was not thrilled when they came home empty-handed with “no duckies.” But this picture was from a photo session Kyle came up with all on his own—we set it up in a little swampy area with decoys and Jackson’s toy shotgun so he could get the full experience. He was over the moon, so excited and proud to be a part of something with Kyle. Watching them that day, seeing the effort Kyle put in—getting the waders, planning the hunt, spending that one-on-one time—I just stood there behind the camera knowing… this is exactly why I want to marry this man.

Little Hunter in the Making 

This was the second trip we ever took with Jackson, and it was extra special because we went with his mom, dad, sister, brother-in-law, and his nephew to ride the Polar Express! It was all about creating that magical Christmas feeling for the kids—and honestly, it was just as special for me. It was the first time Jackson and I had ever ridden a train, and sharing that moment with him (and everyone else) made it so sweet and unforgettable. A memory I’ll always hold close.

Polar Express Magic

Our first and only Christmas as an engaged couple—and what a year it had been. We got engaged, survived Hurricane Helene (even though we swore the heat with no power for a week and a half might do us in), and came out stronger on the other side. Through it all, it was just me and him—and we made it. Santa brought Jackson everything he wished for, and for the first time in a very long time… Christmas actually felt like Christmas.

Our One & Only Christmas Engaged

This picture right here—me, Kyle, Newton, Brandon, and Lilie—was taken when we went out to celebrate Lilie’s 24th birthday. It’s always a good time when we’re all together, and it’s even sweeter when my baby brother can hang out with us too. Looking at this now, it’s wild how much stronger all these friendships have grown since then. Real ones, right here.

The Crew 

His very first time playing soccer—and let’s just say, it was an experience! Jackson quickly decided he’s not the biggest fan of sports that involve too much running, and he much prefers games where he can use his hands. Still, it was a great season full of learning and fun. Kyle showed up when he could, just like the rest of the family, and we were all proud of our boy for trying something new!

Jackson’s First Soccer Season 

One thing about Kyle—if he’s not working, he will show up. No matter what, he steps up and he’s there. This photo was taken at Jackson’s Pre-K Easter party. The kids got to hunt eggs, and Kyle and I helped hide them. And when I say there were lots of eggs… I mean LOTS and LOTS of eggs! It was such a sweet day watching Jackson have fun, and just another reminder of how Kyle shows up for the little moments that matter most.

One Thing About Kyle… 

This was the first time we took Jackson to the fair—and the first time Kyle and I had ever gone together since being a couple! It was the spring fair on Easter, and we had a blast. Jackson rode the little rides, hopped on a horse, fed the animals… all the good stuff. Then came the bird cage. Kyle, being the “down for anything” guy he is, went in with us. Jackson, of course, gets the idea to pet one of the birds’ beaks… and quickly learns that birds bite. He panics, flings his arms, the bird takes off, and suddenly the entire cage erupts like a busted beehive! Birds everywhere, I’m secretly having a full-blown panic attack, and Kyle’s just in the middle of it all like a champ. Definitely a core memory.

Our First Fair Together 

A lot has happened since February, and I can honestly say—without a shadow of a doubt—that Kyle is a real man. He’s stepped up in ways I never expected. We’ve both made sacrifices, but when it counts, he’s always there, doing what he needs to do—often even more than I thought he would. Sometimes, it’s still hard to believe he’s the kind of man I’ve always wanted and needed.

T-Ball Season

Sometimes I catch myself just staring at Kyle, wondering how I got so lucky—or how we both did. To genuinely like each other, love each other, and keep choosing one another… it’s something I never take for granted. This was on Mother’s Day—the weather had cooled off a bit, which explains the long sleeves. But my heart? It was so full and warm. And I couldn’t help but think about the bond he shares with Jackson—the love they have for each other is something truly special.

Awe 

The season wrapped up with a great turnout! Jackson got his award and trophy, and he was so proud—and so were we. He finished the season strong, and seeing his big smile made it all worth it. Emma came along to cheer on her nephew, which made it even more special. At the same time, life was feeling a little up in the air—we were starting to talk about finding a place closer to Jackson’s school and Kyle’s work. Lots of changes on the horizon, but exciting ones.

T-Ball Award Ceremony

Wow—this picture says it all. Kyle got us a golf cart and fixed it up so we could ride around as a family, especially during the summer. It was something fun to keep Jackson (or Emma, or anyone!) occupied—and more than that, it became a way for Kyle and Jackson to bond. And one thing’s for sure: if you’re riding the golf cart, there has to be music—because Jackson loves his tunes!

Golf Cart Adventures 

Let’s not forget Jackson’s Pre-K Awards Day! He won the Whopper Award—for telling the funniest stories and having the best imagination. We were beyond proud of our boy! Now that Pre-K is behind us, it’s on to kindergarten (fingers crossed it’s a smooth ride). Jackson was especially proud that Kyle came—since with his work schedule, he doesn’t often get to attend school events. He was a little sad his dad and Bre- Bre couldn’t make it, but having Kyle there meant the world to him—and made the day even more special.

Pre-K Awards Day

Oh, the stories we could tell from this trip! This picture says it all—clearly we were cracking up, and let’s be honest… it was probably Kyle’s face that set me off 😂 We had such a blast with our crew—Matron of Honor Lilie, Best Man Brandon, and bridesmaids Fallan and Martie. From all the laughter to making those cute custom hats (thanks, Hobby Lobby!), it was one for the books. So many memories made, and so much fun packed into one unforgettable trip!

Joint Bach Trip Vibes

These three are so special to me—one’s my best friend, and the other two are my sisters (who also happen to be my best friends too—because that’s how sisterhood works). They listen, they understand, they show up for me, and I’ll always do the same for them. Our bond is something truly unique, and honestly… I wouldn’t want to walk down the aisle without them by my side. And most importantly… they all three actually like Kyle.

My Girls 

I’ve never seen so many snakes, lizards, turtles, geckos—and even chinchillas, monkeys, and puppies! It was mostly for Jackson, and he absolutely loved it. Me and Jackson even got a picture with three monkeys—though I was having a slight panic attack because, you know, monkeys can eat your face off! What a wild, unforgettable day!

Reptile Expo Adventure

Since Kyle bought the boat, lake days have become a regular thing—and I’ve definitely adapted. I’m still not the biggest fan of getting in the water, but I go, I hang out, and I make the most of it. I’ve learned to always bring a chair, sunscreen, and of course—a good hat. It’s something he enjoys, and I love seeing him happy. Just like he tags along when I go shopping (even though it’s not really his thing), I show up for lake days. That’s what it’s all about. This particular day, we were celebrating the Fourth of July. We met up with his sister, brother-in-law, nephew, her friend, and her friend’s daughter—and later joined some more friends and their family. Nothing fancy—just a full day of sun, laughs, and making memories on the water.

Lake Life (Sorta) 

This picture right here? Just good times with the very best of friends. You know I had to snap a photo (because if you know me, you know I love pictures).

Fourth of July Memories 

We took these sunflower pictures with Amberly, and by this point, it was official—we’re moving! Some things didn’t go as planned, but a lot of things did fall into place. Kyle won’t have to drive so far to work anymore, and I’ll be working right at Jackson’s school (which feels like such a blessing). A lot has come together, and now we’re getting so close to the wedding day. It’s exciting… and yes, a little stressful, but it’s all part of this beautiful chapter we’re stepping into.

Sunflower Sessions & New Beginnings

In the beginning, it was just me and Jackson. Then came Daniel, Jackson, and Breanna. Over time, Daniel and Breanna welcomed their little boy, Buckley—while Kyle and I were quietly building something special of our own. As our relationship grew, it became “us three”—me, Jackson, and Kyle. Then, this past winter, Daniel and Breanna welcomed another sweet boy, Landrum. Everyone in the photo above is a part of Jackson’s world—and we took this picture not just for him, but because of him. We wanted to give Jackson something that shows him what love, respect, and teamwork can look like—even when life doesn’t follow the plan. Two people can come together and have a child, then go on to find love with someone else and build new families—and that’s okay. What matters most is that everyone shows up with love. I couldn’t ask for a better dad for my child, or a better stepdad. And I’m beyond grateful Jackson has a stepmom who’s loved him like her own since day one. She’s been there—babysitting, helping, cheering him on—just like I’d be there for her. It’s not always perfect, but it’s real, and it’s full of love. And for Jackson? We’d do it all over again. 💛

One Big Blended Family

My bridal shower was hosted by my best friend Lilie, and she absolutely outdid herself. Every little detail—from the decorations to the handmade bouquet—was perfect. So many people commented on how creative and beautiful it was. A few even said, “I’m stealing that idea!” And let’s not forget her pasta salad… people were asking for the recipe left and right! Everyone near and dear to me showed up to celebrate. We played games, laughed a ton, and I even got to see a few faces I don’t get to see often. It meant so much to me to have everyone—my family, Daniel’s family, and my soon-to-be in-laws—all there together. It was just… special. I used the picture above because there wasn’t one with everyone together—this one’s just me, smiling big by myself with the beautiful decorations and chair. I do wish I had a group photo, but honestly, this moment was special enough on its own. I couldn’t have asked for a more perfect day or a better time to feel so loved and celebrated.

Bridal Shower Bliss

This is the woman behind our family photos—Amberly. She wears many hats: full-time hairdresser, part-time photographer, boutique seller, and most importantly, Jackson’s “Amby”. She’s been a steady, loving presence in the bride’s journey through motherhood—always ready to help, always full of heart. Maybe a little overbearing at times, but only because she cares so much. There’s truly no one else we’d want capturing the special moments of our big day. She’s opened her heart to both the bride and groom, and we’re so thankful for her.

Photographer 

Also known to many third graders as Miss Bentley, Kayson is a full-time school teacher with a hidden talent for hair and makeup. From weddings to pageants and special events, she brings creativity and care to every look. She’s also Jackson’s beloved “KK,” and I’m lucky to call her not just our makeup artist, but a true friend. For the big day, she’ll be joined by Payton Searcy, who works alongside Amberly at the salon and is just as talented. Together, they’ll have us all looking our best!

Jasmine

Kyle

The bride’s son—wild about the outdoors, Bigfoot, hunting and trapping, painting, and watching Shark Week on repeat. He’s the apple of her eye and the heartbeat out of her chest. Excited to officially call Kyle his stepdaddy… and very ready for the wedding festivities to be over with! But first—he can’t wait to boogie on the dance floor!

Jackson

The bride’s best friend—she has a sweet soul and the warmest heart. From the very beginning, she’s made me feel so incredibly special. A beautiful girl mom to our precious flower girl—and wife to the Best Man! I’m so grateful to have their whole family in our lives.

Lilie

The Best Man—better known as BT. He’s married to the beautiful Matron of Honor, and together they’re raising the sassy flower girl who proudly calls him Daddy. He and the groom have been best friends since their school days, and he’s beyond excited to see Kyle make it official and step into dad life. More than anything, he’s here to have a good time. A true outdoorsman who loves fishing, hunting, and relaxing at the lake or by a fire—with Hank, Merle, or Waylon playing on the radio. Most days you’ll find him hard at work, but when he catches a break, you’ll find him at his weekly Bible study—grounded in faith and living the good life.

Brandon

The Matron of Honor and Best Man’s daughter—spunky, sassy, and full of personality! She loves shopping, riding her daddy’s boat, and holds a very special place in her Uncle Kyle’s heart. Totally a mama’s girl and her built-in bestie.

Harper Kate

The bride’s crazy little sister—a total firecracker who loves hard and lives loud. Her true mini me! She’s been thrilled about the wedding since day one, and her excitement has meant everything. She loves her nephew more than life itself, and at the end of the day—she’s mostly a sister’s girl.

Fallan

The bride’s littlest sister—the sweetest and most easygoing of them all. A true team player on and off the field, this softball star is full of love, calm, and a heart devoted to Jesus. Soft-hearted and so loving with her nephew—except when he breaks toys and tries to blame her! And of course, she’s a total daddy’s girl through and through.

Martie

He’s definitely the groom’s other best friend—almost like a big brother and trusted duck hunting buddy. A godly man, happily married to Logan and proud dad to a wild little boy.
