After graduating college Nathan moved to Indy. Megan eventually followed and they became roommates. Megan came into Nathan’s life during a time of transition. Life is ever changing, but one thing that will never change is the friendship that Megan and Nathan have. Megan will forever be apart of Nathan’s Ohana. Nathan is beyond thrilled to have Megan apart of his special day!

Jordan & Shawn have been best friends since kindergarten! They've grown up together and have been by each other's side for the past 25 years! They've had countless sleepovers where they stayed up all night playing Mario Kart together. Jordan has always been the "Timon" to Shawn's "Pumbaa" - that's why they have matching "Hakuna Matata" tattoos! Shawn made Jordan promise he would be his best man when they graduated high school.
Jacob May
Jacob May - Best Man
Jacob and Nathan met in IU Kokomo's choir in 2014. Jacob has been Nathan’s ride-or-die since day one. If there’s anything that Jacob and Nathan are passionate about, it’s tacos and working out. Jacob is the type of friend that will audition for a musical with you, even though he’s really not interested. He's the friend you can count on when one else will go to a Carrie Underwood concert with you. Nathan was honored to be apart of Jacob’s wedding day, and Nathan is honored to have Jacob stand next to him on his wedding day!
Kelly Edquist
Kelly Edquist - Groom's Pal
(aka Shush) Kelly was Shawn's boss when they met at Camp Lawrence in 2014. They were instant friends! Such good friends that Shawn decided to move to Indianapolis after graduation where Kelly & other good camp friends lived. Kelly & Shawn actually grew up in the same town and their parents' houses are only 8 minutes from each other. Thank goodness for Kelly or else Shawn & Nathan may not have ever met!!
Danielle Cogswell
Danielle Cogswell - Groom's Pal
Danielle is Nathan’s life long friend. They met in the 4th grade, went to the same middle, graduated high school together, and were college roommates. Needless to say they share a lot of fun memories in their 20 year friendship. Playing dance and cheer at recess, having secret sleep overs, trips to Indiana Beach, and France Park beach days are just a few of the cherished memories they share. No matter where life takes them, nothing will break their bond. When thinking about who Nathan wanted standing next to him on his wedding day, Danielle was at the top of his list.
Hannah Robinson
Hannah Robinson - Queen Reverend
Hannah & Shawn met at Loyola University Chicago in 2012 and bonded over their shared, intense loves for Lady Gaga and TLC reality shows.

Hannah has been a supreme and crucial friend in Shawn & Nathan's relationship and they wouldn't want anyone else to be there to marry them on their big day! Rev. Hannah exclusively marries gay couples because GAY RIGHTS!
