Mel met Caitlin back in 2017 while working her first retail job at Francesca’s, and little did she know just how special their friendship would become. She’s the planning and organizing guru. When Mel got engaged and started to think about her wedding party, she immediately knew Cait would be her Maid of Honor; it was a no-brainer. She has stood by Mel’s side through so many of her life's biggest moments and achievements, and let’s not forget, she plans out every event and party they’ve ever had to a T, flawlessly. So, I guess you could say she was truly born for this role. Cait, you are one in a million, and Mel cannot wait to have you by her side on the most important day of her and Wills life.

Stephanie and Melanie crossed paths about 24 years ago when their mom decided she needed a sassy and very opinionated little sister to accompany her through life, and that’s when Mel was given the very important title of “little sister” (hence why their names rhyme). Truthfully, we couldn’t have planned this beautiful wedding without her. Mel’s wedding planner, chauffeur, realtor, sister, therapist, and emotional support all wrapped into one. Unfortunately, she’s used up all of her budget on this wedding, so in true little sister fashion, I hope you’ll accept the title of Matron of Honor as payment for now. Love you, mean it!

Mel met Jill back in 2020. Fun fact: she was one of her first clients when she started her career as a hairstylist five years ago. She does not believe Jill was placed in her chair by accident. She recalls them clicking almost instantly. Jill has the biggest heart and the kindest soul, with a little sprinkle of sass. Mel remembers thinking, “Yep, we are going to be besties, I just know it.” Fast forward to 2024, Mel feels so blessed that their friendship grew, and couldn’t imagine her wedding without Jill by her side.

Skylar and Mel met when their paths crossed working in downtown Clarksville together in 2021. If she needs an honest opinion or a girl who isn’t afraid to speak her mind and keep the party all in line on her big day, Sky is our girl. Mel truly could spend hours yapping away with her and pickup right where they left off every-time. She is so blessed to call Skylar her bridesmaid and sweet friend.

Alec and Will crossed paths back in '04 at Central City Elementary and have been friends ever since. They bond over sports, hunting, and Kentucky Wildcat basketball.

Juan and Will met when Will joined his fraternity, and Juan became Will's "big brother." They enjoy traveling, a good glass of bourbon, and, you guessed it... sports.

Will and Collin's friendship began back in 2017 when Collin joined the fraternity as Will's "little" brother. They bond over sports, golfing, and fishing.

Will & Melanie's big day would not be complete without their prize and joy golden child & "flower pup" Rex.

Benji is Melanie & Will’s nephew and the perfect addition to the bridal party. Although he might be small, rest assured he will most certainly bring the party.
