Kylee Shuey - Maid of Honor
Kylee is one of the bride’s greatest friends — the kind of friendship that leads to matching tattoos and zero regrets. They’ve been inseparable for years, surviving dance floors, life changes, questionable decisions, and enough memories to last several lifetimes. If something important is happening, Kylee is there. If there’s a margarita involved, she’s already on the way.
Tony Strunk - Best Man
Tony, formally known as Goober, will be the Best Man, Tony is one of Braydens oldest friends. Between playing youth football together, taste testing fishing lures, fixing broken cars, or playing with fireworks Tony and Brayden have been through it all together. Brayden was the Best Man in Tony's wedding and Tony is happy to return. Brayden and Tony also have matching tattoos...
Mattie Bracken - Bridesmaid
Mattie has been Jenna’s longest-running friendship, lasting through every stage of life and only gets stronger with time. She’s sweet, stubborn, endlessly loyal, and always down to get rowdy when it’s time to celebrate. Mattie brings comfort, honesty, and just the right amount of chaos, making her one of the most important people in Jenna’s life and an essential part of this day.
Aaron Carter - Groomsman
Aaron is the kind of guy you only become friends with after fighting a group of middle-aged men on New Years Eve...because that’s exactly how he and Brayden became friends. Aaron is a devoted karaoke performer and he also shares a surprisingly deep and heartfelt appreciation for The Edmund Fitzgerald with the bride. Ronny is authentically himself.
Matti Jo - Bridesmaid
Matti Jo is Jenna’s beautiful baby sister and a walking reminder that some people are just good at everything. Volleyball? Basketball? Arm wrestling? Covered. She has never been the biggest people person, she started growling at people before she could walk, but she is someone who is fun to be around. She’s strong, genuine, and tries very hard to play it cool, but she’s a secret softy who cares more than she’ll ever admit.
Blake Richeson - Groomsman
Blake is recently engaged, proving that true love exists even for someone who eagerly leads the charge on Rumple Minze shots, an activity the bride and groom proudly enjoy alongside him. Towering over the rest of the wedding party as its tallest member, Blake uses his height responsibly (most of the time) and can always be found near the buffalo chicken dip. He’s the proud owner of Charlie, the unofficial dog of the entire friend group, and despite needing to be up at 4 a.m., Blake will still be out with everyone because sleep is optional.
Joni Roberts - Bridesmaid
Joni and Jenna met in college and have been twisted sisters ever since with an uncanny ability to understand each other in ways no one else can. Joni, now a Success Advisor at Rockhurst University, has a natural knack for guiding others through life’s chaos. She’s the voice of unwavering validation, always ready to respond to Jenna’s wildest, most out-there ideas with a calm and emphatic, “No, you’re completely valid.” Her support as constant as it is hilariously enabling.
Walker Aldrige - Groomsman
Once a frat boy, now a man, Walker is truly the jack of all trades. He and the bride go way back to high school, while he and Brayden became close friends in college, where Walker perfected the balance between fun and responsibility. Tough, dependable, and the proud driver of a very nice truck, Walker and Brayden like spending time together at truck shows and concerts. Walker is the kind of guy you want around when things need to get done and when it’s time to get the party started.
Reese Carter - Bridesmaid
Reese and Jenna met through Brayden, aside from him, she is Jenna's favorite part of Harrisonville, MO. Reese is level-headed, down for some karaoke, and she can drive stick-shift which in Jenna’s book is basically superhero-level talent. Reese is also Jenna's gym buddy though sometimes they decide to skip and go to Taco Bell. Jenna has watched Reese put a grown man on the ground and a crying baby to sleep, truly a woman of many talents.
Austin Brock - Groomsman
Austin is a man of many talents and slightly questionable decisions. He has a passion for street bikes, photography, and, for reasons still unclear, crashing twerking competitions at Mo Country. Austin keeps life interesting not just with his antics, but with the endless stream of wild, fascinating theories he comes up with...seriously, there’s always a new one. Whether he’s behind a camera lens, on a bike, or in the middle of a completely unexpected adventure, Austin is a hoot!
