Courtney and I met in 6th grade, when I walked up to her and asked "are you new here?" We have spent the last 10 years the best of friends, went through middle school and high school together, started college, vacations, parties, and many more adventures. Courtney has become my sister, and has been most supportive person throughout our journey. The second easiest question I could ever ask her was "will you be my maid of honor?"

Ryea and I are 11 months apart in age and while we are incredibly close now, it wasn't always that way. We spent half of our lives annoyed of each other. It wasn't until we were teenagers that we realized how much we needed one another. Ryea embodies everything the perfect, most encouraging sister does, and I am so thankful to have her by my side on our special day.

Maddie has always felt like a sister to me. We have known each other for about 10 years now, and I cannot count how many times she has listened to me with so much compassion, and undoubtedly given me the best advice. She is the definition of being supportive without judgement, and I couldn't be more grateful to have her by my side.

Zach is my best friend. We have known each other for 4 years. We've done tons of stupid things together, but nonetheless we've always had the best times. Others are convinced this wedding is for me and him lol. I wouldn't think of him any less than a brother.

Damon is like a brother to me. In times of need, he is always willing to help. Knowing Damon over the years has made our connection stronger. With our connection, I've been able to see his family grow, and I'm excited to have him a part of our day.

Brandy may be my sister, but she has always been close to me like a brother. From teaching me sports, gaming, and music to riding motorcycles together. If I am ever in need of anything, she's always by my side. Our competitive nature always makes a good time together. I am grateful to have Brandy as one of my groomsmen.
