Megan Deaven

Colton is Young Boy #2. Although he's Cody's younger brother, he's often the guy Cody turns to for words of wisdom.
Sidney Wagner
Bridesmaid
Cool under pressure, Sidney was the fun, supportive, and adventurous spirit friend/family Brandi gained in Tennessee. While laughter and serving brought these two together, a life saving experience DEFINITELY brought these two closer than ever!
Clay Young
Groomsman
Clay's the last of the Young Boys, but don't let that fool you. He's taller than Cody, so wouldn't that make him the "bigger" brother?

Samuel and Cody met during their time in OneLife. Not only were they roommates, but they also traveled domestically and abroad. Not many people can say they went to Italy with one of their groomsmen!
Kasey Shimandle
Bridesmaid
It feels like yesterday that they met while rushing for AXID, but Kasey has been by Brandi's side through it all! She is always ready to have fun, and she was Brandi's biggest cheerleader with each new season and adventure she started!

Norman Deaven
Father of the Bride
"Stormin' Norman" has always reminded Brandi to believe in herself and to have fun. Whatever life threw her way, Norm was always right beside her, ready to help however he could. He taught her the importance of family and how your family isn't always your blood relatives. He happily set the example of what it looks like to be there for your family-- no matter what it takes.

Besides being Brandi's older twin, Bonnie has taught Brandi everything she knows about responsibility, sacrifice, and loyalty through the good times and bad. Brandi knows that Bonnie will always by her side, cheering her and Cody on!
Mark Grumbine
Step-Father of the Bride
For as long as she can remember, Mark has brought nothing but laughter into Brandi's life. He doesn't see Brandi as a step-daughter but as his own child. He knows how to give Brandi a reality check, but he always found a way to back it up with a goofiness like none other!
Douglas Young
Father of the Groom
Not only did Cody get his good looks from Doug, but he also learned what it means to be a man of integrity. He has set an incredible example of what it means to sacrifice as a husband and father, and Cody is extremely grateful for Doug's impact and involvement in his life.
Barbara Young
Mother of the Groom
One of the greatest gifts Barb instilled in Cody is the importance of prayer. Cody and Brandi can always be confident that they're being lifted up in prayer. Cody also has a soft spot for Barb-- he's always been a mama's boy.
