If there’s one person who’s been through it all with me—laughs, chaos, fire (sometimes literal)—it’s Charles. He’s not just my best man; he’s one of the best men I know. We’ve shared years of memories, and during that time, he’s been a brother, a teammate, and a voice of reason when I’ve needed one most. He’s the guy who shows up, no questions asked, ready to lend a hand or crack a joke—usually both. From inside jokes only we understand to the moments that shaped who I am, Charles has always been there. I’m honored to have him by my side again for this next chapter. Honestly, it wouldn’t feel right without him.

I feel so lucky to have Logan by my side. She’s more than family—she’s one of my greatest inspirations. Whether we’re laughing until we cry or having those deep, soul-refilling talks, she always reminds me to keep going even when life gets tough. I can’t wait to celebrate with her and make even more unforgettable memories together!

I honestly couldn’t have picked a better Matron of Honor. She’s not just my cousin—she’s one of my dearest friends. Growing up, I looked up to her so much. She drove a cool Pontiac Firebird with T-tops, and of course, I wanted one too—just to be like her. She’s beautiful, ambitious, intelligent, confident, and hardworking… but more than anything, she’s someone I’ve always been able to count on. I’m so grateful to have her standing beside me on this day.

Liam may be one of the youngest in the wedding party, but he’s already one of the most impressive. Watching him grow up has been one of the greatest joys of my life. He’s strong, fun-loving, and has a spark in him that’s impossible to miss. Just like his old man, he’s got a passion for Pokémon, Power Rangers, and all things awesome—and don’t even get me started on how sharp he is with math and science. He’s curious, kind, and has a laugh that lights up any room. Having him by my side today means everything, and I couldn’t be prouder of the young man he’s becoming.

You're not only my big brother...you are my friend We both know how our lives have been...Our Dad is not here and he cannot give me away...But I found someone just a special I must say... It is you my wonderful brother and I am so blessed to have you by my side I love you and I am overjoyed with pride... So arm and arm down the aisle we will go As you hand me off to the man we both know... Thank you for being here with me as Heaven looks from above... As I leave your side to join again with my forever love

When Paul and I were thinking about who could truly capture our hearts, our journey, and add just the right touch of laughter, we knew it had to be Jaime. There’s something powerful about being married by someone who knows your soul and your story. Having Jaime officiate isn’t just special—it’s personal, real, and filled with love.

Marie and Jensen became friends through one of those rare long-distance connections that click. Jensen started out as an assistant, but like magic, they became great friends. Jensen is great at keeping me on task when dealing with weddings, business, health, school, and everything else I throw his way. Jensen’s part Iron Man, part wizard, part Winchester… all heart.

Michelle and I go way back—all the way to school days, Braves, concerts, movies, hanging with friends, lunches after church, and so much more. We grew up together, and somewhere along the way, we stopped being just friends and became sisters. My parents loved her like a daughter, and hers treated me the same. Her dad even stepped in when mine couldn’t. She’s been there through every season of life—laughs, losses, and everything in between. And yes, we’re still rocking out to the Backstreet Boys like no time has passed. She's not just part of my wedding party—she's part of my heart.

Colby, my niece, through love, laughter, and a whole lot of sass. She actually asked to be the flower girl, and let’s be honest, no one could do it better. She’s cute, spunky, and never afraid to tell it like it is. She keeps us laughing and lights up every room she walks into. I can’t wait to see her sprinkle her sparkle down the aisle—just like only Colby can.

There’s no one who’s had a bigger impact on the man I’ve become than my dad. He’s been my role model, my teacher, and one of my best friends. From Cub Scouts to Eagle Scout, he walked every step with me—leading, encouraging, and showing me the value of commitment and follow-through.We’ve logged miles together—literally—riding the MS 150 to Myrtle Beach, and just as many hours side-by-side building computers, diving into sci-fi, and tinkering with tech. Whether we were studying for my amateur radio license or quoting Star Trek and Star Wars, he’s always been in my corner.Having him stand beside me today isn’t just a tradition—it’s a tribute to the bond we’ve built over a lifetime. I couldn’t ask for a better man to have by my side.
