Kelci and I became friends at school when I moved into the classroom next to her. It was (teacher bestie) love at first sight.

Chris' oldest and most well-read friend. Kelby has always been thoughtful and true. One would be hard pressed to tell a tale where these two weren't together.

Dani and I connected in gospel choir at college. It was arguably the best part of my week, and I'm thankful to have met one of my favorite people because of it.

Mike has known Chris for a long time and has been by his side through thick and thin. He never could teach Chris basketball or baseball, but his examples in fatherhood and marriage are much more valuable.

It all started when I moved my seat in class because the people I was sitting next to before were boring. Hannah will always be my roommate, my confidant, and the friend that made college worth it.

He graduated high school a year after Chris, but for how often they talk and joke you'd think THEY were getting married. River's love of his wife, Abby, is an inspiration.

Hailey may not be a sister, but she is still a built in best friend. From begging our parents for a sleepover after family Christmas, to riding the stuffed whale down the stairs. There are countless stories full of so many memories. Forever thankful for you, cuzzy.

When the groom met his 5th cousin twice removed, he realized that the only person who liked Blink-182 more than him was his cousin. Though Wade has many friends wanting a seat on his boat, there's always a spot for Chris.
