Sister of the bride and Maid of Honor. Hannah has been my biggest protector since that day I was born. There is no one else in the world who cheers me on quite like Hannah, or laughs harder at my jokes. Hannah and I have been known to be mistaken for twins and can often be found at the center of the party. Hannah has the rights to claim match maker for Zach and I. I can also guarantee she will hang onto that title until the day that she dies. I can't imagine going through this process and my wedding day without her by my side.

I like to joke that my Aunt Jo had Alex just for me. Only a year apart, Alex and I have been attached at the hip since the day we met. Growing up as cousins that are more like sisters, the amount of memories we have together are endless. This past year we have both gone through the engagement and wedding planning process together and I can say without a doubt there is no one else I would have wanted to share this experience with. I can't wait to go through life sharing in all our most exciting moments together.

Rylee has been my life-long friend. We met on the first day of pre-school and the rest was history. As we have gone through life, no matter if it was a week, or a year that we went without seeing each other, once we were back together, it's like nothing had ever changed. After college we both ended up living in Louisville and only a few miles apart from each other, quite literally our childhood dream. We finally got to make up for lost time and I could not be more grateful. Rylee was the only thing that made it hard for me to leave Louisville. But don't worry I'm still determined to get her back to Ashland one day so we can grow old and gray together, still having sleepovers while making our husbands refill our wine glasses.

Amber was my first friend I made moving to a new high school. She instantly came up to me and welcomed me in like she'd known me her whole life. I never knew why she stuck around with me for so long because I don't think she could have found a clingier friend if she tried. Anytime I get to actually see her I like to stay as close to her as humanly possible, and she usually lets me. I can always count on her to go along with my crazy plans and hardly ever try to talk me out of them. Amber has rarely said no to a last minute plan or concert tickets. I can't wait for all the countless other memories we'll get to make as we go through life step-by-step with each other.

I first met Maddy at a party my freshman year at EKU. She was loud, funny as hell and the life of the party. Someone I knew I'd instantly get along with for a very long time. Fortunately the stars aligned and two short years later we were both looking to move off campus and we just happened to reconnect. With her she brought her best friend Lauren and the three of us set off to make our best college memories yet. Living with Maddy kept me on my toes but most importantly it kept me laughing. The three of us made the best of roommates we could have ever asked for. Countless movie nights spent snuggled up in the living room and plenty of nights out in Richmond, I wouldn't have wanted to spend it with anyone else. Even though Maddy and her beautiful family lives on the other side of the country, there is no amount of distance that would ever keep us apart from each other.

Lauren is the cute little nugget that came as a package deal with Maddy. Lauren is one of the sweetest people you will ever have the honor of meeting. We all hit the jackpot when it came to roommates. We will forever cherish our days spent together on the back deck laughing and having wine nights to catch up on the crazy day we'd had. Movie nights were our favorite past time and if there is one thing I could always count on Lauren for, it was the pan of brownies with 3 forks brought to the couch for us to crush in one sitting. I used to come home to bowls placed face down on the floor with a note next to it saying "BUG." Lauren wasn't great at killing creepy crawlers, that was my job. But I'd give anything for one more night in that house laughing and slaying bugs so Lauren could sleep at peace.

Kyndel is my "bonus" friend I can thank Maddy and Lauren for bringing into my life. Kyndel was Maddy and Lauren's friend from back home who would fairly often come down to Richmond for a fun girls night and I would be lucky enough to get to join. Over the years and many nights spent together, we all became thick as thieves. It's hard to imagine a time before I knew Kyndel, it's as if she's always just been there. To know Kyndel is to love her. She is the kindest, most loving person you'll ever have the pleasure of meeting and I cannot imagine a world in which she isn't standing by my side on my wedding day. I am forever grateful for the sisterhood that little college house gave me. I know no matter where we go, I will always have them by my side.

The guy it all started with. Seth is my big brother and best man. Through the best and worst times its always us with each others backs.

No one really knows what his next move will be. Where Dew goes, Zach follows.

Toughest man on Earth, he married my sister. Solid dude and best neighbor.

Rachel's nephew that was quick to hit it off with me when I first started dating Rachel. Neither of us could imagine this day without him next to us.

The unpredictable wild child. Lots of memories, mostly good. Love you long time.

Lifelong friend and family without the blood, always a phone call away.

Life of the party and long time bud. You can hear Justin coming from a mile away, or two.

Oaklee is the daughter of Dew and Cayla and has quickly become another one of Rachie's Besties. I'm lucky enough to spend many a nights with Oaklee and Cayla while Zach and Dew get into something dumb. When I asked Oaklee if she wanted to be a Flower Girl she said "I want to be Bell" so if you see her walking down the aisle in a beautiful Bell dress, no one say anything, she'll be gorgeous either way!

This cute little sassy powerhouse comes from Kyndel and her husband Elliot. I can say without a doubt the amount of times she has played pretend "wedding" in their living room has fully prepared her for this day. Good luck to anyone who gets in her way, there is simply no stopping this pretty princess once she puts on her dress and shoes!

Blakely is the spunkiest little one you'll ever meet. She obviously takes after her mom, Maddy, and dad, Nick Telesz. She is beauty, she is brains, she is ready to walk the aisle with Robin and Oaklee and absolutely nail their flower girl duties! After this wedding, everyone is going to be asking them to be their flower girls.

Trenton is Zach's nephew and Aunt Rachie's best friend. We have the greatest joy of being their neighbor, and on nice days in the summer I usually don't make it past their house without Trenton jumping in the car with me and I wouldn't have it any other way. As much as Uncle Bobby (A.K.A Zach) doesn't want to admit it, I might have taken the lead as the favorite aunt/uncle when it comes to the boys.

If I ever can't find Canaan all I have to say is "where's Rachie's boy" and within seconds he'll give himself away, hiding under any surface he can find. This wild man can usually be found in the barn with all his horses and playing in the saw dust. I know that if he takes his ring bearer duties half as serious as he takes his Big Brother duties, then our rings will be in good hands!
