Amanda and Mackenzie first met back in middle school, and although they went to the same elementary school, and only lived a few blocks from one another, their paths barely crossed. That was until 7th grade, when in the blink of an eye they became inseparable.

Katie and Mackenzie met their freshman year of college through their sorority. There mutual sense of humor, and dislike of sorority life, quickly led them to become best friends (and drop out of their sorority). :)

Amy and Mackenzie first met almost 10 years ago when Amy started dating Mackenzie's older brother Chandler. They immediately connected and she knew Amy was the older sister she had always wanted.

Kim is Brandon's younger sister and first met Mackenzie at her brother Cody's wedding. Brandon and Kim grew up very close and Mackenzie could see how important Kim was to him. The more Mackenzie got to know Kim, it was easy to see why. Kim is kind, care-free, and brings out joy in others in a way that others cannot. Mackenzie feels so lucky to call Kim her sister.

Brandon and Max met in kindergarten and have been best friends ever since. Brandon even named his first dog after Max when he was five years old and his family still makes fun of him for it to this very day. Max has been like a brother to Brandon and they have been a part of each other's lives for all of the highs and lows. Brandon would not be the person he is today if it wasn't for Max and is lucky to have had a best friend like him for over twenty years.

Austin and Brandon met freshman year of college at the University of Eau-Claire. They quickly formed a close group of friends that would end up living together throughout the rest of college. While this group may have not been the most quiet group, they certainly were one of the closest groups. Austin has always been one of the people that Brandon turns to first with good or bad news and would have never survived college without him.

Cody is Brandon's older brother and an anchor in his life. Without question Cody has always dropped everything for Brandon when he needed him and is a constant role model that Brandon can look to. Growing up Brandon and Cody were polar opposites and many questioned if they were even related. Today you can clearly see how many amazing qualities Brandon has inherited from his older brother and how much he truly appreciates everything he has done for him.

Chandler is Mackenzie's older brother and has welcomed Brandon into their family with open arms. Brandon is truly excited to be an uncle to Chandler's son Oliver and is grateful how much love their family has already shown him. Brandon could not have asked for a better brother in-law.
