Officiant
Also, Grandmother of the Bride. "Grand" from the moment we got engaged we knew who better to have the honor of marrying us than her. She has always lifted us up with words of wisdom, support, and unwavering love. What an incredible feeling it is to be loved by someone so gracious and understanding. Grand has been Brittany's lady since the time she was born. Brittany spent weeks on end with grand, shopping, spending time at the pool or baking together. And even now, not much has changed. When Brittany sat Grand down on the porch swing to tell her about Casey, she was reluctant BUT it wasn't long before they warmed up to each other. Grand tells us all the time how important and special our love is and we know she'll have the perfect words to capture it, on wedding day.
Matron of Honor
My beautiful baby sister has been my built in best friend since the day she was born. In the early days we shared a room, made mud pies, and built forts. We spent our teenage years on the cheerleading squad together, watching Jersey Shore, gossiping and having girly girl nights. Our time spent together now, although few and far between is cherished more than ever. Everyone always comments about how much were alike and I couldn’t agree more. We share our love for a ice cold Dr. P, margs, and shopping. There are many days I don’t know I could get through if I didn’t have my sister by my side, the most important coming up. She has never failed to support me and lift me up through endless "I'm so proud of you's". Thank you for standing by side me at my right hand gal, while I commit to a happier more fulfilling life with Casey. I love you endlessly.
Maid of Honor- Daughter of the Bride
From the moment I found out I was pregnant with Kyleigh, she has changed my life, in so many ways. She'll tell you she's always been my number one and she's not wrong. She's been my little side kick in the best of ways, my shopping buddy and my favorite dance partner(stayed tuned for our mother/daughter dance, guaranteed to not leave one single eye dry) . She's going to rule the world one day with her willingness to surround all those around her with kindness and love and her ability to NEVER BACK DOWN (lord help me with this one). I am so proud that Casey and I can give her a relationship to look up to, one that provides stability, respect and compassion. I am so blessed to be able to share my special day with her and have her walk me down the aisle to our new forever. We love you so much Ky.
Bridesmaid
Believe it or not Sara and I started off hating each other and now I couldn't imagine my life without her. We have many memories of side kickin' at Chesapeake Neurology, vacationing and spending quality time with our kids. She is the kind of friend you want to have your back through the good and the bad. Really, she's the older sister I never had. Sara isn't afraid to speak the truth no matter how much I DON'T want to hear it. That's what I love about her most. Recently we've taken more time for our friendship, which has been good for my soul. She has always supported me in pursuing a relationship with Casey and always hears me go on and on about how amazing he is. Thank you for standing beside me as I marry my best friend. Cheers to all the Dr. Balls shots WE WILL devour. Love you so much.
Bridesmaid
Krystle and I met in math class at the College of Southern Maryland in 2020. Although it’s been a little less than 3 years I feel like I’ve known her for a lifetime. I give Krystle all the credit that Casey and I are where we are. She’s the one who’s I spilled all my Casey obsessions to in the beginning and helped me reel him in. So thank you Krystle for my forever. Krys has instilled wisdom in my life in so many ways. She has made a lot of my days brighter, has made me smile more and has helped me love myself. Krystle is the kind of friend everyone needs, in their life. She’s a friend that has turned into my family, one I know that I can call anytime of any day and she’d be there. My life is better because she’s in it. We love you so much Krys.
Bridesmaid
Rylee is my one and only niece and I am her favorite uncle! She is the robin to my batman, the butter to my popcorn and the eggs to my bacon. I was her first boyfriend and I wish I could be her last. She is like a little sister to me as I will always have her back and she knows she can come to me to talk about anything, especially things she can't with her mom and dad. In a lot of ways, she reminds me of me. She is so independent, so smart, ridiculously good looking, and doesn't take s*** from anyone. She can be rebellious at times but at the end of the day, no one would trade her for anyone else. She is so sweet, kind and full of love. She makes everyone smile and fills every room she is in with positive energy and smiles. Everyone would be instantly grateful to have themselves a Rylee in their life and I am the just the lucky uncle who does! We love you so much!
Bridesmaid
Shelli another one of my sisters, is such a care free and beautiful spirit. She lives life to the absolute fullest, unapologetically herself. It’s what I admire most about her. We spent many days making backyard forts together, climbing trees, and playing dress up. Growing up I was her “sissy” as she called me before she could even pronounce my name. This past year Shelli and I have really grown closer. She has been one of my biggest cheerleaders, always letting me know she’s in my corner. She has always loved Casey from the start. I texted her a picture of him one day, showing him off and she replayed “respectfully, good lawtttt, I’m so happy for you”. They always cut up and share a lot of laughs, together. Mostly when she’s sharing embarrassing stories about me. I’m forever grateful for Shelli and her accepting heart. I love you Bean.
Bridesmaid
Amber is my youngest sister BUT she's the one with the most wisdom. With 3 hours of travel that separates us, I don't see Amber nearly as much as I want too but we make up for it over endless belly laughs when were together. Amber is mother hen, she always has been. I spent so many days helping her swaddle her baby dolls, "Alex" in particular and looking back now, I wouldn't trade those days for the world. Always the top of the pancake sister pile , Amber is the type of sister you would be blessed to have in times of need and times of celebration. I love you so much.
Best Man
Skraightenin, skraightenin, skraightenin yea! My older brother by 5 years, my tormenter as a kid growing up, and my ultimate protector, role model and best friend. As we grew older, our relationship grew stronger and even more so over the past year. There is nothing he wouldn’t do for me and has always been there for me any time I ever needed him. I always had the luxury of growing up with a someone to look up to. I valued Shane's opinion and advice, even if it wasn't what I wanted to hear, at the time I looked up to him in every way. We played sports together, traded baseball cards and rough housed together, to our mom’s chagrin. I tried to mimic his every move, even the bad ones. He taught me everything I know and I wouldn’t be where I am, or who I am without him. He toughened me up, he taught me how to love and he showed me what I deserve. Shane is an amazing person and an even better brother. He was the first person I went to when Brittany came into my life and he has always supported us without question. What I love so much about Shane, is his relationship he has with Brittany. He has loved her since day one and it shows. The two of them together is so wholesome and so goofy. He makes her laugh until her dimples hurt. The two of them have a very special relationship and he doesn’t know it, but that means the world to me. So thank you brother, thank you for everything you have ever done for me! We love you! Brother’s for life!!! Like Shit!!!

Andre is my brother. Ive known Andre since I used to battle him in parks and rec basketball when we were around 10 years old. Andre knows more about me than everyone I know except for Brittany (now). He is more than a friend to me. The main reason I know this is because we can go months without talking, and as soon as we reconnect, it's like we've talked every day. We have had many late nights talking about anything and everything you could ever imagine, from conspiracy theories and life philosophies to our love lives and families. There isn't anything you can't talk to Andre about. He is the most open minded person I know and he is the person I can count on to open up to about any ridiculous thought in my mind and know he would never judge me. He is always straight forward and real. He is often misunderstood but if you ever gave Andre the chance to really know him, you would love him. You would love him more and more each and every single day. I am so grateful to have a person like Andre in my life and although he chose to move 6900 miles away, I still feel like he is by my side whenever I need him. From everything I constantly told Brittany about Andre, she also fell in love with him and hadn't even met him yet. Matter of fact, the day she was going to meet him in person, she was completely nervous to the point where she thought she would throw up. We both thank you for being you and for being in our lives and sharing this special moment with us. We love you!

Cory, my brother from a different mother! We've been through it all, literally. Out of all my groomsmen, I've known Cory the longest. He used to "live" at my house every day during the summers growing up. He would wake me up every morning bright and early just to watch the TOP 10 on ESPN Sportscenter knowing I am not a morning person. We measured each others heights, marked it on our walls and played baseball, basketball and football every chance we got against each other. I used to love when Cory was over because he also became my brother's new favorite target to pick on. Cory has always been by my side and had my back. Undoubtedly I know he would do anything for me and in turn I would do the same for him. He is the person I know I can call whenever I need someone. I can always just go over and have a beer in his garage or wake up when its still dark and go fishing. I have enjoyed every moment growing up with Cory and look forward to continuing our battle of who can be the goofiest. Brittany and I appreciate the constant support and love you have had for us since the moment we started talking. We love you!

My boy Mick! Mick and I met when I hired him at GNC years and years ago. He used to teach me all of the Bowie slang and I instantly grew a love for him. I always saw myself in him and looked at Mick as my little brother. From the day I met him I could tell how great of a person he is, how caring he is and how huge his heart is. Mick is guy that you want in your corner because he is so down to earth, real and will never stab you in your back. An example of this is how our relationship developed. I hired him at GNC, he left and began working at a home improvement company. He knew how much I hated GNC. What did Mick do? He hooked me up with a job working with him at the home improvement company. He is always looking out for those he loves and he would do anything for you. He has a sweet and gentle soul. We enjoy many of the same interests from getting swole to being Bob the builder and fixing our own houses. Mick is an entrepreneur at heart and everything Mick has, Mick worked for. I love the type of person he is and he is an incredible person to know, and to look up to. Brittany has not met Mick yet and she's only heard what I have told her. I know Brittany will love Mick as she will see a lot of me in him. I always tell Brittany Mick is a better version of me which I believe whole heartedly. Mick, thank you for being you man and for never changing for anyone. Cheers to your future with your beautiful wife and of course King LEO! We love you!

Spierto! Steve is my best friend from college, someone I lived with for three years. I met Steve freshman year and we became best friends shortly after. We have shared a lot of memories together, some we don't remember. Steve is someone you have to have in your life. He keeps you grounded, he keeps you smart and most importantly he loves you like family. When people meet Steve, they get an impression that he is just strictly business, maybe a little quiet and definitely not someone who could get into some mischief with. Let me be the first to tell you, and I'm sorry Steve. Stephen Spierto is a wild boy! Some times Steve would do things even I wouldn't do and I can be as crazy as they come. Secrets out! In all seriousness Steve's main mission in life is to kill it and become as successful as he can be. He is a very hard worker. He would try so hard to sit in his room at college and study. What he sometimes forgot is I lived with him. I would barge into his room with at least 2 beers in hand and tell him its time to party. He paid me back though on numerous occasions. Me not being a morning person, Steve would barge into my room early in the mornings and say, "wakey wake, time to b***y". I couldn't refuse, ever. I loved spending time with Steve and I tried to capitalize on every moment we had together. We studied, partied, went to the gym, skateboarded, snowboarded, and even cooked together.He was my best friend in college but he will forever be my brother. PGOD! We love you!

Kevin is the sweetest, most gentle sole on this planet. He has always wanted to love and be loved since the day he was born. Kevin is the little brother I never had and I try to take advantage of this any moment I have. He can thank his dad for this as he constantly picked on me growing up. I never really realized how much he looks up to me until he started his love for Kobe Bryant (my all time favorite athlete). Kevin has a very special place in my heart and I will always be the person he can look up to and count on. Since the moment Kevin met Brittany, he instantly fell in love. To be honest, I think I have to worry about him stealing Brittany from me. Proof of this happened recently after we took him on a trip to the National Harbor for ICE. Kevin has now placed a picture of Brittany him and I from this trip on all of his devices. His phone, tablet and Apple Watch now have a picture of all us on it. We are truly blessed for the love Kevin has for us and has had from the start of our relationship. We love you so much!
Flower Girl-Daughter of the Bride
Emmy is without a doubt the sour patch kid of the family. One minute shes melting your heart and the next.... well watch out. Emersyn spends most of her days stuck to my hip like glue. She is my little shadow around the house and mimics my every move. I've been very careful with what come out of my mouth. She is so so kind. Her sweet family drawings, her famous hugs attacks (which she only does with Casey) are our absolute favorites. From the moment Emersyn and Casey were introduced she has gravitated towards him in such an amazing way. They dance around the house and cheers chocolate milk. Emersyn even has a song she sings to Casey and has changed some of the words to better represent him. You'll hear Emmy say she married Casey first, which we don't argue. On wedding day you'll probably catch Emersyn in charge of all the littles or stealing snacks from the dessert table. Mommy and Casey love you so much Emmy Rae and are so happy to give you this new life.
Flower Girl
Alaina has paved the way for my nieces and nephews (all 7 of them). She's the one who gave me the "Aunt Bee" title and prepared my heart for a love like no other. Alaina is the sweetest little girly girl, who will be certain to pick out the most perfect dress with the most ruffles and glitter, to walk down the aisle in. She's the kindest little soul who always spills the the sweetest words to her Aunt Bee. We love you so much Alaina Michelle.
Flower Girl
Maci is a WILD THANG, a bull in a china cabinet persay. She's always on the move, typically to pull someone's hair but nonetheless is NEVER caught sitting still. When you catch her in the act, right in the moment of mischievous business, she'll grin back at you as if she's doing nothing wrong. Just like all my little love bugs Maci loves her Aunt Bee and has warmed up to Uncle Casey too. Moo as everyone calls her will most likely run down the aisle, to her mom and avoid every direction given, in her own Maci Grace way. We love you so much Moo.
Flower Girl
Josie Marie is two of the three nieces born into the family in 2020. She is the sweetest doll baby whos sure to steal the show when she cheeses all the way down the aisle. We are crossing our fingers to no meltdowns over the dress, because shes rather be playing in the dirt with her brother. You will most likely find Josie getting down to "Fancy Like", on the dance floor or at the bar hustlin' for a Dr. Pepper (Like her Mama & Aunt Bee) We love you so much Josie Marie.
Ring Bearer- Son of the Bride
There is nothing like a mama’s boy, and Bubba is nothing short of just that. He’s rough and tough but never fails to give me sweet random kisses and/or "I love you's" . He's even picked up on "acts of Casey" (as I refer to them as). He opens the door for me any chance he gets and tells me how beautiful I am (even in my sweats). Bubba took a while to warm up to Casey but now they are two peas in a pod. Always talking "bro" and challenging each other to Mario Kart. Bubba learned how to perfect his hit from Casey and properly run the bases. There is nothing quite like "my boy" learning how to love from Casey. Bubba we love you so much and are so happy to be able to give you an example of true love and friendship.
Ring Bearer
Ryder prepared my heart on how to love a little boy. Growing up with all sisters, I never knew what it was like to sit on the floor making dirt bike noises, until I was blessed with a nephew. Ryder is sure to bring you to tears with his version of "dad jokes" or when he cuts it up on the dance floor at the reception. Aunt Bee and Uncle Casey love you so much.
Ring Bearer
Ridge P, my sweet little nephew. Whenever I walk through the doors and Ridge lays eyes on me, he runs up and gives me the biggest hug and kiss. With a face filled of dirt or chocolate his huge grin just radiates. Ridge is always full on energy and ready to play, monster trucks or hide and seek. Being the baby boy of the clan does him well. He lets everyone know who’s in charge. I have a little soft spot for this little boy and can’t wait to see how adorable he is on wedding day. We love you Ridge.
Honorary Flower Girls
Kinley was my third niece born in 2022. She is a little wrecking ball with the most beautiful blue eyes. Harlyn is the baby of the family and exactly what our hearts needed. Although they will be seated amongst you all, these sweet sisters will be sure to steal your attention, in their matches dresses.
