Mikayla has been my best friend since I was 4 years old when her family moved in across the street from me. From that moment on, we have been inseparable. The laughter we've shared, the late-night talks, and all the memories we've built together have shaped me into who I am today. I never imagined that we'd build the kind of bond we have today. I honestly can't imagine this special day without her standing by my side. She's not just my best friend she's my family.

My two brothers! They have been there my entire life and I share with them laughter, adventures, and countless memories. They have been not only my brothers, but my partners in crime, soccer teammate, snowboard companion and my greatest supporters. From childhood mischief to the serious moments we’ve shared, I know I could always count on them both. As I take this next step in life, I’m grateful for our bonds and I’m lucky to have them both by my side.

Amanda and I met when I was 4 and she was 3. Our mothers worked together and quickly became close friends, and it wasn’t long before they introduced us. Though we didn’t live in the same city, we stayed in touch over the years, knowing we’d always be there for each other, through all the ups, the downs, and everything in between. I had the honor of standing with her on her wedding day as a bridesmaid, and now, it's my honor to have her by my side.

From the day Abby was born, I knew she would always be in my life. Abby has always been the little sister I never had, and even though we didn’t have to, Mikayla (her actual sister) and I loved having her tag along with us. She has always added so much fun and laughter to everything we do, and I can’t imagine life without her quick wit and spirited personality. She has an incredible ability to make any situation brighter, and her presence is a guarantee that there will always be smiles. Even before Collin proposed, I knew she would always be in my wedding. I feel incredibly lucky to have Abby by my side on my wedding day.

It's hard to believe we've been friends since we were 3! From soccer games to snowboarding adventures, and even staying tight through college despite the miles between us, it’s been such an awesome ride. Jeb has that perfect mix of drive and humor that keeps things fun and inspiring. He has been such a solid friend all these years and I know that there are many more years of laughter, adventures, and everything in between!

J.T. is more than just a friend – he's family. From the early days of preschool to navigating the challenges of high school and college, J.T. has shown kindness, a sense of humor, and has a genuine care for others. Whether we're laughing together at inside jokes, supporting each other, or celebrating life’s milestones, he's a life-long friend until the end.

Peyton is another friend I have had since I was in kindergarten! "From the moment we met, we’ve shared countless memories — from intense soccer matches to unforgettable snowboarding trips and endless hours of laughter. Through every memory of our almost 20 year friendship, I’m reminded of how much our friendship means to me. I’m grateful for all the moments we’ve shared, and I look forward to many more to come.
