Wedding Party

Madelyn Merrell - Maid of Honor
Madelyn and Lily grew up on the same Farm to Market road about a mile apart separated by a cotton field farmed by Lily's grandfather. They became best friends in the 3rd grade and would often walk across the cotton rows to get to each others houses. They have stood by each others side through many different walks of life the past 13 years and are more than excited to enter this new chapter supporting one another.
Jasmine Acosta - Bridesmaid
Jasmine and Lily begun their friendship on the volleyball court as freshman at Idalou High School. Together, they are often referred to as "double trouble". Their friendship has flourished through supporting each other in life's many trials but also through the intense laughter and many inside jokes every single time they are together. Lily and Jasmine have an inseparable bond and are ready to rejoice in the upcoming future!
Mia Simpson - Bridesmaid
Mia is Lily's younger cousin but they consider themselves more like sisters. They are 5 years apart and love travelling together. Mia is so excited to add Tucker to the family!
Addyson Ford - Bridesmaid
After meeting on spring break their junior year of high school, Addy and Lily decided to be freshman college roommates at Texas Tech University. Attending college together was such a fun experience that the girls will remember forever. Addy has been one of Lily's greatest cheerleaders and they are more than ready for the big day!
Alice Hopper - Bridesmaid
Alice is the daughter of R.N and Lyndi Hopper and also gets the pleasure of being Tucker's younger sister. You can imagine how witty and strong she is living with Tucker for 16 years. Lily is over the moon to have Alice as a sister in-law!
Presley Smith - Bridesmaid
Presley is Lily's younger, middle sister. Lily likes to say she is all the good and none of the bad. Lily loves to support Presley being an all-star on the basketball court and the girls are thrilled to be side by side on this great day!
Kutter Bland - Best men
Kutter and Tucker began their friendship in the 5th grade. Tucker really wanted to invite Kutter to his house for his birthday party, so following a Little League baseball game, Tucker practically forced his mother to go speak to Kutters mom. After that, the rest was history. Tucker would spend just about every weekend pre-high school at Kutters, and then High School came around, and it was more like every day. Kacy, Kutter's sister, came into their class one day and asked Tucker if he wanted to show steers. With pretty much zero hesitation, he obliged. While they have moved miles apart from each other since those days of practically living together, they remain as close as ever. Kutter is definitely ready to hitch two of his childhood best friends.
Xzavier Tarin - Best men
Xzavier and Tucker also became friends in the 5th grade. While Tucker did move to Idalou in the 4th grade, he obviously was not the biggest hit, as most of his friends came in the following year. Ha! Xzavier and Tucker were very close when they began competing in sports together. However, it often turned into arguments and bickering that could last one day to one month. They both have an overly competitive spirit that absolutely shows itself when one loses. Following high school, their friendship continued to grow, and they spent all of their early COVID summers hanging out. Even though they don't see each other as much as they used to, they are as close as ever. Xzavier might be the most excited to celebrate this conjoining of childhood best friends.
Colby Blatnik - Best men
Colby and Tucker Began their Friendship a little slow. The first time Tucker met Colby was for the Super Bowl during their freshman year. Grant and Colby were childhood best friends, so Grant invited Colby over to watch the game. Initially, Tucker and Colby did not say very much, and from Tucker's perspective, it felt a bit awkward. However, soon after, their friendship blossomed and they began doing everything from golfing together to taking Accounting at the local community college together so it would be easier. Tucker was blessed to be a part of Colby's big day, and Colby, I'm sure, is more than ready to do the same.
Gavin Bender - Best Men
Gavin and Tucker began their friendship when they became neighbors at what they call "The 6's". Gavin and Tucker share many of the same hobbies, ranging from sports, video games, to things that can't be mentioned. As they began living next to each other, their friendship only grew, and it became a daily routine for all of us to hang out at least once. Gavin has been a huge help in Tucker's life, and I am sure he is more than ready to get him hitched.
Grant Plumer - Best men
Grant and Tucker became friends practically the first time they met. Both were "springers" at Sig Ep at OSU and instantly hit it off. Although Tucker did not last very long as a springer, the friendship he made with Grant did. They were still practically inseparable even when Tucker was no longer in the frat house. Grant even went as far as claiming Tuck's spare room in my dorm. As they have gone through the years of college together they have continued living together as well as bonding over sports, specifically Dallas sports. Grant has been a constant friend since he moved to Stillwater, and I am sure he can't wait to celebrate.
Jackson Howard - Best men
Jackson and Tucker became friends in exactly the same way Grant and Tucker did. The three were "springers" at the same time, and all three were inseparable. However, after Tucker was no longer affiliated, Jackson and Tucker began hanging out even more. It seemed like every night, they were playing video games, binge-watching movies, or going to the gym. This was a great time in their early college careers and one that is unforgettable. They became so close that the following year, they moved into a two-bedroom apartment together and had some great memories there. Jackson is excited for the big day!
Danny McReynolds - Best men
Danny and Tucker began their friendship at Oklahoma State University through Sig Ep. Tucker and Danny, especially during their Junior year, took many classes together and would often carpool to those. Sadly, often times they would look at each other and decide that the golf course or the pool tables were calling their names instead and "forget" about class. Danny never lived with Tucker. However, he basically lived at the 6's with all of us because there was never really a time he was not there. Danny is more than ready for the big day.
