Our Wedding

our story

Connor and Jess met at White Water Bar & Grill in 2015 or maybe 2016. He was a bus boy and she a server. Obviously they flirted anytime they worked together as FOH and BOH so often do. But Jess (being older and wiser) knew to leave their flirting at the kitchen window. Several years passed and after some sisterly scheming and help from a friend, Jess and Connor found each other at a 4th of July party together in 2019. After Jess lost a betting game to Connor, rather than hading him over the Benjamin’s that she owed, she said she would take him on a date instead. The rest is history.

Officiant

We are honored to have Luke marry us! He is a wonderful cousin, a hilarious person, and a patient roommate (we basically lived in the RV with him for 2 summers). 

Luke

Maid of honors

I basically raised her. Ask my parents. We are 10 years apart, but you would honestly never know because of how wise and witty she has been her whole life.

Lilly

I taught her to read and then all of the sudden she was smarter than everyone I knew. Emma is the kindest and most grounded person.

Emma

Bridesmaids 

Sweet, perfect Laiken. Connor’s youngest sister and also Emma’s dear friend. We see a lot of her and I LOVE IT. We share a love for Nickleback and keeping Connor in line.

Laiken

Connor’s other sister. We wouldn’t be here if it weren’t for Kiley. She literally set us up. We originally bonded over both being exceptionally good at two truths and a lie. Heart of gold.

Kiley

My built in sister! Oh thank god my brother is good at picking them! Kyleigh and I were fast friends. She is beautiful inside and out. One day we will look at the carnage on that camera..

Kyleigh

Our elementary school punk rock/country band The Dancing Disco Dogs didn’t make it,  but our friendship sure did. Amberly and I have been through all phases of life together. 

Amberly

Yes that is Nick Jonas. Justine is my cousin and best friend. She has taught me about adventure and introduced me to the most amazing band of all time. 

Justine

Oh my god. I have laughed more with Katie than anyone on this planet. We met in middle school at the prime of our weirdness and things only got weirder from there.

Katie

Courtney and I became friends in college and no one ever worried about us because of how weird we were. She just makes me laugh so dang much! 

Courtney

Okay this photo is so bad. But Molly was my freshman year college roommate and phones sucked back then. I don’t think I would have had nearly as much fun in college if it didn’t all start with her.

Molly

I don’t think I’ve met anyone who loves White Water Bar & Grill more than me, until I met Kaitlyn. I am thankful for her passion and her spunk. 

Kaitlyn 

Best man

Kyle is my built in brother. No one, and I mean no one, could run a fade or catch a contested touchdown like him on the elementary school playground. We were electric out there.

Kyle

Groomsmen 

Robby is the ultimate yes man and troublemaker, how we survived being roommates I still can’t comprehend. Also, nobody has a better ass in a pair of daisy dukes than this man.

Robby

Jordan earned his spot senior year when he top shelved a free kick from midfield as time expired to win the only soccer game I ever attended. That and our 10+ years of memories and decent chess matches.

Jordan 

The 2nd best white, wide receiver to ever wear #87. Nobody could ever throw a birthday party like him, hopefully our wedding stacks up to those epic nights.

Lucas

Jess’s brother. If you’ve never seen a man shotgun 15+ beers in a night, like I have seen this mad man do, then you haven’t lived. Heard?

Tanner

He’s only reason I ever got sent to the principals office. Also, you never wanted to run into him in the MW2 lobby.

Trace 

The loudest, baby-faced, trained killer that you’ll ever meet. Wouldn’t want anyone else in my corner.

Nick

This schemin demon. Our time spent cooking in the kitchen and cooking up diabolical plans to get Jess to like me paid off.

Logan 

Austin, Parker, Parknuts, or Nuts. No matter what he’s called, he’s ready to talk ball or squad up with the boys. He is the old man of the groomsmen, so hopefully he can survive all our youth and make it to the big day.

Austin

The only man I have ever seen split a pair of slacks in half dropping it low. Sorry though ladies, he’s taken. I am lucky that he moved up north and still agrees to golf with me after seeing my swing each time.

Zach

Dylan. The man that is the life of the party and ready to do something only he can do at any given moment. He is forever the Thad Castle to my Alex Moran.

Dylan

Never a dull conversation with this man. Our hours spent shooting the shit over a glass of V8 splash I wouldn’t trade for anything. Unless I could trade it for him to come to CSU and not CU, but we won’t get into that.
