Wedding Party
Victoria Ebell
Mother of the Groom
Beautiful inside and out. She loves reading, languages, church, and people (to name just a few). She is one of the most knowledgeable and cultured people I know. Plus she raised an amazing son ;)
Myron Ebell
Father of the Groom
Intelligent and hardworking. Newly retired from his career in politics (something with the environment, I think it's above me), he's been keeping himself busy with a volunteer position and a house in his hometown in Oregon. He is knowledgeable in just about every subject imaginable and he is a lover of chocolate (us too!)
Brian Connolly
Father of the Bride
Fishing enthusiast, impressive guitarist, and serious bowler. Growing up this was how we spent our days. He loves a steak dinner and some chocolate cheesecake. He sometimes eats his potatoes raw, which I find strange, but we love him anyways.
Anna Gin
Mother of the Bride
Beautiful and generous. She would do just about anything for anybody she met. With a career as a flight attendant, she has impressive strength and people skills. She is a die-hard animal lover and a renewed cafe drinker. Merci beaucoup Paris ;)
Charles Ebell
Best Man
Friendly and thoughtful. He picks out some of the best Christmas gifts and cooks some of the best dinners. He spends most of his days walking the neighborhood dogs and when the weather is good, caring for native plants in the greenhouse. The monarchs appreciate him and so do we!
Zoe Breeding
Maid of Honor
Patient, loyal, and kind, we've been friends from the start. She's a dancing queen and isn't afraid to shake her butt. Ask her about the Love Shack, we totally did a flash mob. She loves red wine and makes some bomb sugar free chocolate chip cookies. And she's an elementary ed teacher (which I very much admire, that is not a job for the weak).
Ashley Scott
Maid of Honor
My birthday twin! Smart and thoughtful. She's a hard worker (for real, you don't have to work 3 jobs crazy lady) and a little hardheaded (but that's the Taurus in her ;)). This nurse loves to watch Grey's Anatomy and cuddle babies. She is hella stylish and has a home that looks like it could be found in one of them home magazines. I only dream...
Eugene McDonald
Groomsman
Born with a need for speed and a thick New York accent. This surfer bro is hanging loose. As crazy as it may seem, he didn't even pick up the thing until AFTER his time in Hawaii. He decided the freezing waters of New York was a better place to the ride the waves, where he can come out with some sick blue lips and a rockin brain freeze. Right onnnn
Tomas Wren
Groomsman
Six foot four and full of muscle, Tomas would be in the NBA right now if it wasn't for his bum hip. He is full of talent and knowledge. Not only is he a tech connoisseur with all the new gadgets and doodads but he is also better than Thomas at just about everything.
Lindsay Soltis
Bridesmaid
Smart, confident, and fearless. She knows her stuff and is not afraid to show it. My double time roommate taught me how to reupholster a dining chair and the joys of a cast iron skillet. She also introduced me to liver (yuck). She is an outdoor enthusiast with experience in snowboarding, scuba diving, hiking, and skateboarding. Her favorite though is rock climbing, and she hopes to open a gym one day.
Travis Connolly
Officiant
Funny and kind. He can talk to anyone, and everybody loves him. He's wonderfully thoughtful, bringing back gifts for everyone every deployment he's ever been on. And he's an insanely hard worker, volunteering for deployments, purchasing and fixing up his house and car, taking pilot lessons, etc... My first friend and my biggest role model, my brother.
Nicole & Jessica
Flower Girl
These two lovely ladies are as funny and thoughtful as they come. Introducing me to the world of pop music and Pretty Little Liars (ya'll remember that show?), these two were essentially older sisters to me throughout those preteen years. Nicole is a talented cat lover that can work the camera and the Cricut (and who even knows what else). Jess is a wild one, full of love and laughter (seriously you should hear her laugh, it's infectious). She feeds the strays, gives giant hugs, and has some sick kites.
