Nicole has been my best friend since kindergarten, and she's basically family at this point. She's the kind of person who's been there for every phase of my life, the good, the bad, and all the ridiculous moments in between. She's loyal, funny, and the one person who knows me better than almost anyone. Growing up together means we share a lifetime of memories, inside jokes, and stories that never get old. No matter how much life changes, she'll always be my best friend.

Skyler is not only my little sister, but she is one of my best friends. Even though we are 10 years apart, that's never mattered to us. We've always had such a special bond, and she's been there for me through so much. I know I can always talk to her, laugh with her, and count on her no matter what. No matter how far apart we are or where life takes us, I know we'll always be there for each other. I'm lucky to have her not only as my litter sister, but as one of my best friends.

Ava is my sister-in-law, and she's honestly like a sister I got to choose. For the last 3 years I've been with Travis, she's been so welcoming and made me feel like part of the family from day one. She's kind, fun, and always knows how to make everyone feel comfortable and included. I love how easy it is to talk to her, how supportive she is, and how much positivity she brings to every room. She's truly an amazing person, and I'm so lucky to have her in my life.

Morgan is my cousin, and she's been one of my best friends since we were born. We've shared so many fun stories, crazy adventures, and endless memories. Growing up together has made our bond unbreakable, and no matter what, I know we'll always have each others backs. She's hilarious, loyal, and one of the most important people in my life, having her as both family and a best friend is truly the best.

Hannah is one of my best friends. We met in gymnastics when we were 12, and we've been there for each other through all the ups and downs ever since. Over the years, we've shared so many laughs, made countless memories, and had so so many sleepovers. She's loyal, kind, and someone I can always count on. I'm so lucky to have her in my life.

Simonne is one of my best friends. We met sophomore year of high school, and ever since, we've shared so many laughs, endless inside jokes, and countless sleepovers. She's someone who always makes life more fun and bright, and I know I can always count on her. I'm so grateful for all the memories we've made and all the new ones still to come.

Patrick has been my best friend for as long as I can remember. He has constantly supported me in everything I’ve done no matter how dumb it might have been, and Lord knows there was a lot of times like that. Patrick has practically been like a brother to me, and another son to my parents, ever since we started playing t-ball together. We have shared so many different milestones with each other, whether it has been walk-offs on the baseball field, college football games, or just going to the gym almost every day after work, he’s been there for it all. Regardless of what happens or what situation I’m in, I know I can always count on Patrick to be there.

Jackson has been one of my best friends since we started playing baseball with each other when we were 8. We continued to play baseball with each other all the way up until college until I went to Clemson for Architecture and he went to Charleston Southern University for baseball. Jackson, like Patrick, has also been around for a lot of milestones in my life and most would say that you wouldn’t find one of us without the other. We were definitely the friend trio people talked about.

Noah is the newest addition to my life. I was introduced to Noah about 3 years ago when he decided that he wanted to take on the large task of dating my little sister Ava. Although he hasn’t been around as long as my other groomsmen, I have still gotten to witness many milestones in his life such as graduating high school, becoming a cadet at the Citadel, and most importantly, someone that I can trust to lookout for my sister.

Scott is one of my best friends, and also my roommate from freshman year at Clemson. We have experienced so much together through our years in Architecture School at Clemson that includes, but not limited to, seeing zero Clemson home football losses, studying abroad in Italy, and even 3 knee surgeries. Scott has been there during some of my best times and some of my toughest times, and never did I have a doubt if he had my back or not.

Danny started off as one of my classmates in Architecture School at Clemson that I never really got to talk to until the second half of Freshman year. It didn’t take very long for him to become one of my best friends and eventually Scott and I’s roommate Junior year. Danny also was there for a lot of milestones and studied abroad with me in Italy, where he witnessed me break my knee walking down the stairs next to him. Danny has gone on to accomplish a lot since Clemson and even has a successful podcast called The Rolling Tape.

Austin was the roommate that was never our roommate at Clemson. I think he spent the night almost every weekend Junior and Senior. He quickly grew on Scott, Danny, and I, and became one of our best friends in our later years while in school. Austin also studied Architecture with us and went abroad with us to Italy. During that time he made a film series on YouTube called “The Villa” that showed our time there in an “Office” themed series. Austin is also the only licensed Architect in our friend group and I couldn’t be prouder of him.
