Wedding Party
I am letting Parker write up about the groomsmen - I'm not as good at that and he knows what he wants to say better... This page is still under construction.
Ronnie Harbert
Best Man
Parker's uncle.
Jimmy Hortman
Best Friend - Groomsman
Jimmy and Parker go back further than most - hunting and 4-wheeling days at Medway Plantation :)
Julie Ohlandt
Maid of Honor
My first cousin - and the sister I never had. Julie and I lived together before she moved to Chile and we became inseparable. She is a fellow Libran and always understands (or mostly understands) what I am thinking and feeling. :)
Andrea Gregg
Bridesmaid - Best Friend
Most people already know the story here. Andrea is married to someone I went to high school with and she actually asked me to be her maid of honor before she was even engaged! We have been at each other's sides for 2 1/2 years (going on 3) and I don't think I could make it without her. She is my rock!! She always knows what I need to hear :)
April Ihnen
Bridesmaid - Best Friend
April is one of my oldest friends. She and I became best friends our sophomore year in high school and through thick and thin, we have remained super close. We have lived together twice and now we are planning our weddings together! She is the one that no matter what she has on her plate, she would drop it to be there for me if I needed her - in a heartbeat. And I would do the same for her. She is a necessity in my life. She's been there so long, I don't know what I would do without her!
Maegan Bell
Bridesmaid - Friend and Sister of the Groom
Maegan, I have discovered, is my kindred spirit. I couldn't have been blessed with a better sister-in-law (to be). She has been my advisor and therapist on many occasions and she's gonna have her hands full in these coming months!
Gretchen Napier
Bridesmaid - Best Friend
Another kindred spirit. She is my diary of secrets and is dating one of Parker's best friends, Nick Altine. One evening with Gretchen and a bottle of wine will cure all the world's problems!! I have been so blessed to have her as my friend and couldn't imagine not having her. :)
Brooks Oswald
Best Friend - Groomsman
Brooksie - the captain of the High Roller II
What would we do without him?
Drayton Oswald
Best Friend - Groomsman
Brooks' brother - grew up with Parker. There are too many stories to share here - I'll have to let Parker write the commentary on all his friends. But my note here is that I hope Drayton doesn't get the microphone during toast time! :)
Nick Altine
Best Friend - Groomsman
The other 1/3 of the High Roller team!! :) (not to mention the other half of one of my bridesmaids - Gretchen)
Sara Easterlin
Bridesmaid - Best Friend
Sara and I met WAY long ago when I was 9 and she was 6. She moved in across the street from me and we were pretty much inseparable until I moved to college. She has seen me through just about every stage of my life and amazingly enough, she's still around! (crazy, huh?) I was honored to be the maid of honor in her wedding and now it is her turn to stand beside me in mine! I love her and am so glad we are still in touch after all these years!
Kenneth Luther
Groomsman
One of Parker's oldest and best friends. Kenneth and Parker go back a long way and there are plenty of crazy stories that involve their adventures...
Butch Cooper
Groomsman - Best Friend
Again - Parker will need to update this. But I can say that Butch and his fiancee Carlin are getting married on my birthday! CONGRATULATIONS!!
