The best sister a girl could ever ask for! Riley is the rock in our family, and she always keeps me grounded. I am so blessed that Riley is always there for me, regardless of the circumstance. She is the one who will be helping me make my dream come true. I couldn't ask for a more perfect person to be by my side on my wedding day. - Kylee

One of my oldest best friends joining my side on my wedding day is a dream come true. From riding the bus together in elementary school, to celebrating our adulthood in downtown Sioux City, she's always been there! I can't wait to add to the multitude of memories we've created over the years on this special day! -Kylee

The girl that I get into the most trouble with! I met you at such a pivotal point in my life, and our friendship is so important for me. Thank you for being there for me through everything. I can't wait to have you there for my wedding, too! -Kylee

Jen got a package deal when coming into my life, because she got to become friends with both Cole and I! It is so much fun when us three can get together, we seriously ALWAYS have the best time and can be ourselves! You're the perfect fit for our big day! -Kylee

Natalie is a woman that came into my life because I started dating Cole (and for that I am forever grateful!). Her presence in my life has taught me to be kind, bold, unapologetic, and above all, to love Taylor Swift! I have loved getting close to you over the past couple years, and look forward to many more! -Kylee

Emma also came into my life by way of Cole, because she is dating Cole's brother! Emma is spunky, kind, sugar, spice, and everything nice. She is hilarious and good company. I am so happy that Trevor was lucky enough to snag her, because that means she will be a lifelong friend of mine! Can't wait to have you by my side. -Kylee

Trevor has been the best brother a guy could possibly ask for over these past 25 years. We have been into the same things our entire lives. May that be Pokémon in elementary school, video games in high school/college, or Nebraska Football today. Trevor is one of the nicest and most down-to-earth people you will ever meet. He has always been there for me, whatever the situation. There is no other person I could imagine being my best man on the biggest day of my life.

Mark is someone that I have known since high school, but his role in my life has changed a little bit since then. In high school, I knew Mark as the guy that played saxophone in the same band class as me. Who knew nearly 10 years down the road that role would change into future brother-in-law. It has brought me such great happiness seeing the family that you and Riley have created with Little Miss Mia. It will be such an honor to have you stand next to me on my wedding day.

Jared came into my life shortly after I started dating Kylee. Jared bleeds Husker Red, like me, so that let us hit it off from the very beginning. One of my favorite things that Jared does is he will always text me to let me know the latest Nebraska recruiting news or what parley he needs to hit on a random night. Jared has become a huge addition to my life over these past few years. You and Mark have made a great duo as brother-in-laws.

Nick is someone that I can truly call a life-long friend. Even though he lives in New York City nowadays, whenever he is back in town, we can always pick up right where we left off. Some of my earliest memories with Nick are when my parents would drop me off every morning at the Akins house so his mom could take us to elementary school and spending every other day at his pool during the summers. I could not imagine doing my wedding day without a life-long friend like Nick.

Cole is one of my oldest friends that I met way back in middle school and playing for our Running Redbirds basketball team. Throughout high school and college, we introduced ourselves as “Cole²” to anyone that met our friend group. Cole and I have also followed in each other’s footsteps throughout life. From playing basketball in middle school, tennis and golf in high school, and both going to the UNL where we were roommates. Cole is one of the most sociable and outgoing people that I have ever met. I cannot wait to have you stand next to me on my wedding day.

Chase is another person that I can truly call a life-long friend. All the way from being in the same pre-school class to being roommates in college at UNL. Chase and I have followed in each other’s footsteps since day one. Whenever I think back to my favorite memories in high school and college, I can almost guarantee you that Chase was there being the life of the party. I cannot wait to have you standing by my side on my big day.
