Tanner has known Gary for the past seven years. The bond between the two grew as strong as brothers. Gary accepting the role as best man was an honor to the groom.

Heather and Lavonna met in middle school and became fast friends over their shared love of books and fanfiction. Heather is a wonderfully sweet woman who has managed to keep Lavonna sane during the wedding planning chaos.

Tanner has known Evan since kindergarten. They have continued their friendship through graduation and beyond. Evan is also the father to the cutie of a ring bearer, Jordan.

When Lavonna began dating Tanner, Megan was one of the first people she was introduced to. Megan welcomed Lavonna into the family with a warm and loving attitude that was greatly appreciated!

Trevor is a long time friend of Lavonna's. He was one of the first people to find out about Tanner and Lavonna dating. Tanner found a quick friend in Trevor because of their similar attitudes about life and the copious amounts of people with unnaturally low levels of common sense.

Stephanie is a long time friend of Lavonna's, and the better half of Tanner's groomsman, Trevor. Stephanie is a wonderful woman and mother to two handsome sons. Lavonna learned early on to heed her advice when it is offered.

Joe is the resident funny guy who keeps everyone laughing with his one-liners. Another long time friend of Lavonna's, Joe welcomed Tanner into the fold with complicated card games and Modelo beer.

Denise is a long time friend of Lavonna's. She also holds the distinction of being the wife of Tanner's groomsman, Joe Grizzard. Denise is a no-nonsense type of woman who does her absolute best to keep things flowing smoothly and efficiently.

Drake is the cousin of Tanner, who is also filling his role as groomsman. Tanner and Drake grew up together spending countless times fishing, riding 4wheelers, and nights filled with shenanigans. Some nights are still not talked about with their parents, as they would have a heart attack.

Mia is Tanner's niece...although they act more like siblings most days. She is a wonderfully talented young woman who Lavonna absolutely adores!

Tanner met Aaron through Adrianna, which is Tanner's cousin, and one of Lavonna's bridesmaids. Adrianna introduced Tanner to Aaron at the Dedeaux Bazar. Tanner didn't think much of it but they began to grow a friendship over time. Conversations on football and beer flourish as this friendship continues to evolve.

Adrianna fills multiple roles in this lifetime. In fact, as Lavonna's coworker and Tanner's cousin, she could, in fact, be considered the reason we are all gathering for this wedding. Adrianna is the one who introduced Tanner and Lavonna one Friday evening back in 2023. So she is entirely to blame for this whole situation.

Hailey is the middle child Heather Lee, the Maid of Honor, and Aaron Lee. She is a beautiful little girl who always has a smile on her face and will have absolutely no problem throwing flower petals all over the place during the ceremony. She loves music and playing with her older sister, Madison, and younger brother, Alex.

Jordan is the son of Evan Ladner, groomsmen, and Rebecca Ladner. He's bringing a lot of charm to the day, and of course the rings down the aisle for us. Tanner is honored to have the son of his longest best friend in the wedding with us.
