My Mom is my rock, my unwavering support, and the person who has always fought for me, no matter the odds. Her infectious laugh is a burst of joy that lights up every room. Her genuine nature leaves a lasting impression on everyone she meets. Whenever life throws us our own challenges, when we work together, we conquer all. We share a bond that is so incredibly deep, and I wouldn't have it any other way. Mom- when you see this- I want to say "thank you" for always being my shield. I can only hope to be half the person you are as Tyler and I grow in our relationship and build a family. I'm blessed to have you as my Matron of Honor.

Wini is not only my beautiful niece but also one of the kindest, most elegant souls I know. Her heart is full of love, her spirit is gentle, and her faith is deeply rooted- all qualities that shine through everything that she does. The guidance she provides is always honest and comes from a place of love. Her presence brings a sense of calm and grace, making every moment more meaningful. I'm honored to have her by my side on such a faith-filled and joyous day.

Lyn is also my niece. Her soft‑spoken manner and observant nature bring a calm, thoughtful energy to every room. Her joyful spirit never fails to shine through whenever we're together. At just 16, she brings a playful goofiness and always has a grin on her face that can turn an ordinary moment into something special. What surprises me most is how mature and thoughtful she is; she strikes the perfect balance of being young at heart and wise beyond her years. I’m so happy to have her stand with me on this wedding day. Her bright energy and sweet smile add a special sparkle to our celebration.

I met Erin about one year ago in nurse practitioner school, and we’ve been study partners (and cheerleaders) ever since—through three intense semesters and countless FaceTime calls from Louisiana to here. Her kindness, humor, and constant encouragement make her an incredible best friend. Erin has a way of bringing calm to chaos and laughter to even the most stressful days. She's the type of friend who shows up with her whole heart, and I’m so lucky to have her by my side—not just on this special day, but in life's many adventures ahead.

Mckenzie and I met six months ago working on the cardiac intensive care unit, and it didn’t take long to realize we’re two peas in a pod. She’s wild, sarcastic, and always has my back—plus, her hilarious sense of humor keeps me on my toes and makes long, difficult shifts just a little more bearable. Whether we're navigating the chaos of the ICU or sharing a laugh over dinner, Mckenzie brings a lightness and joy that make even the toughest days brighter. I’m so fortunate to have a partner-in-crime like her standing next to me on this incredibly special day.

Carlee is my cousin, and even though we haven’t always lived close or seen each other often, we’ve always shared a special bond. We have shared countless core childhood memories, from playing in the woods and riding on our grandparents' play motorcycle to having sleepovers at our grandparents' house. We’re so alike in the way we think—it’s like we just "get" each other. She’s funny, full of joy, and always has a smile on her face. I admire her so much for the strength and grace she’s shown as she begins her beautiful journey into motherhood and married life. I’m so grateful to have her with me on this special day.
