Maria has been my best friend for 22 years and the person who is always there when I need her. When we were having fake weddings in the woods as kids, she was always the one standing next to me. I am so excited to have her by my side when I say I do for real!

Taylor is my older sister by 22 months. When we were growing up I would watch, and copy, everything she did. In a sense I still do; she is a fantastic role model and even better sister. I couldn't imagine marrying Nate without her there with me.

Chloe is my younger sister, and my favorite person to laugh with. We are very similar in a lot of ways and have the best banter and inside jokes. She always keeps me laughing through any sort of day.

Alexandra is my cousin but more importantly my friend. We grew up together and always have the most fun, and funniest, conversations. She is always there to talk when I need someone and keeps me grounded through crazy times.

Leanna is my soon to be sister in law and one of the funniest people I know. Every time we are together I am laughing non-stop. She is so much fun to be around and I cannot wait to create more memories together as we become sisters!

Elden is my older brother and one of my favorite people to be around. We enjoy fishing together and putting new foods to the test in the smoker. I am grateful to have him by my side when I say I do.

Gunner is my younger brother and one of my favorite people to play games with. We love hanging out with the family and going to new places together. I am happy to have him stand with me on my wedding day.

I have known Gary since kindergarten and we have been friends ever since. He is one of my best friends and we love to snowboard together and play video games. I cherish our friendship and think of him as another brother to me. I cant imagine getting married without him there with me.

Sal and I have been friends since seventh grade. Our relationship started out rocky but now he is one of my best friends and like a brother to me. We are both foodies and enjoy going to try new foods together. We love playing video games and watching marvel movies with his dad, Tony. I cherish our friendship and I am so glad to have him with me on such an important day.

Brett is a newer friend but someone I was able to bond with quickly. We both enjoy the same video games and marvel movies. We attend the same men's bible study and I admire his faith in Jesus. I have him to thank for inviting me into the group and helping me further my own faith. He is someone I see being in my life forever and I am happy to have him by my side for my wedding.
