124 Days To Go!
Brittny Goon
Brittny Goon - Maid of Honor
Stephany and Brittny are more like sisters than friends. Having met early in their college careers they joined the same sorority and then lived together on two different occasions after college, thanks to being blessed to live in the same area. Stephany is honored to have their best friend and sister by their side on this special day!
Leah Williams
Leah Williams - Bridesmaid
Leah and Stephany also met in college through their sorority Delta Gamma. Reconnecting a few years ago, hardly a day passes where they don't connect via their group chat or through random bursts of conversation about book and film. Stephany is thrilled to have Leah join us all the way from New York where she works in the entertainment industry.
Mariah Taller
Mariah Taller - Bridesmaid
Mariah and Stephany also met through their sorority Delta Gamma in college and created a friendship based on comedy and support that has carried through all these years. Stephany is so proud to have their accomplished friend Doctor Mariah Taller, who teaches percussion at Minot State join us all the way from North Dakota.
Grace Harsha
Grace Harsha - Bridesmaid
Grace and Stephany were (can you guess?) also sorority sisters in college! But they were also bio-buddies - sharing the same major, they bonded over science and general overlapping hobbies. Now a physical therapist in Indiana, they spend their days helping others. Stephany is so honored to have Grace be a part of the wedding.
Jieun Cook
Jieun Cook - Bridesmaid
Jieun is Stephany's beloved sister-in-law. Stephany is so close with their brother and that meant putting their whole soul into getting to know Jieun when she joined the family in 2018, where they had a gorgeous wedding in Seoul, South Korea. Jieun is an amazing sister and wonderful friend, Stephany is so glad they will be standing up there on their special day.
Zac Savedra
Zac Savedra - Best Man
Zac is the older brother and best friend of Joshua, the one that taught him all of their favorite hobbies and helped him become the man that he is. Zac has continued in life to lead by example and show his little brother how kindness and inclusion can change anyone's day and life. Because of Zac, the Joshua we are all here to celebrate is a better person. If it's to talk about games, movies, work or the world Zac is always there to answer his little brother's phone call and Joshua couldn't anybody else standing next to him to begin this next journey of his life.
Kevin Kendzior
Kevin Kendzior - Groomsman
Kevin came into Joshua's life in Middle School, where they bonded through annoying their math teacher by hiding rulers though out the classroom and soon after were inseparable throughout their formative school years. They were together after their first day of High School and celebrated together the last day too and now 23 years later they still come together to enjoy their favorite past time! After 15 years of being separated Joshua is excited to have one of his bonus brothers back home to celebrate this next chapter.
Sean Stevens
Sean Stevens - Groomsman
This was a friendship forged through fire, and a second grade disagreement that created a bond lasting off and on over 27 years. Experiencing some of their biggest life moments together they continue to stay in each other's lives. From 5-hour bike rides to snow filled ditches from a poorly timed emergency brake. Joshua is excited to have another one of his bonus brothers standing next to him for this large chapter in his life.
Brian Cook
Brian Cook - Groomsman
Although Brian was always in Stephany's life, he's fresh and new to Joshua. The very moment they met he gave Josh a tight hug and welcomed him to the family with the love and respect he has continued to show over the last 5 years. He will be an amazing future little brother and Josh is so glad to have him standing up for this amazing celebration. Stephany and Brian have always loved sharing games and hobbies and now Joshua is often a part of the dynamic sibling duo and their shenanigans. Stephany is so happy Joshua and Brian have come to love each other to the point that Joshua called dibs on his future brother as a groomsman.
Jocelyn Torres
Jocelyn Torres - Groomswoman
Jocelyn came into Joshua's life in 2014 and is one of his most important friends. She came into his life at a very pivotal time and not only helped him navigate the challenges of that time but also encouraged him to move forward with things like a push to go back to school and continue his education. Having Jocelyn stand to help bring in this next chapter like she did the last means the world to Joshua.
