The Proposal
We were attending a Caribbean Cuise with some of our closest family and friends. It was the second night on the boat and we had just finished a delicious dinner. After dessert, the beloved chocolate melting cake, we decided to take a walk around the boat. Owen, Elaina’s youngest brother, distracted her as Kyle stayed back to speak with John and Beth. After aquiring their blessing, he took off to meet up with Owen and his future bride. Acting as nothing were about to happen he continued their walk around the boat. They had officially arrived to the back of the boat and Elaina thought they were all staring off into the ocean, admiring the waves crashing against the side of the boat, and the ocean breeze blowing against their face. When it had suddenly quieted down, Elaina got suspicious and turned around to see that Kyle was down on one knee. She screamed, shouted "YES," and they were engaged! We hurried to find our friends on the cruise ship and popped the bubbly to celebrate!! We're so excited to celebrate this next chapter in our lives with you. See you in KC!

Wedding Party
Naomi
Maid of Honor
Picture from Jan 2018 at Crossfit Nexus Gala Naomi and Elaina were gym partners who became best friends. First meeting at Crossfit Nexus in Raymore Missouri, the girls often partnered up during the “Partner WOD’s” at the gym. Before long gym nights were followed up by girls’ nights. From watching movies on the couch to partying at Power and Light, these two can find fun doing anything. From graduations, to break-ups, to new jobs, to new apartments, these two have supported each other through many of life’s chapters. They share a love for wine, cats and have a Snapchat streak of 🔥547 days!
McKenzie
Bridesmaid
Picture taken August 2019 at Haystack Rock - Canon Beach, OR From sleepovers, to running partners, to high school besties, these two cousins are more like sisters. They share a love for adventure together and even living 1,700+ miles apart they still have shared countless roadtrips and visits to the mountains over the years. Elaina’s favorite memories with McKenzie include the after school Sonic Happy hour visits and sneaking in varies snacks (including starbucks and subway sandwiches) into the late night movie premieres at AMC - Town Center!
Kylie
Bridesmaid
Picture taken August 2022 at Tanner’s Bar & Grill in KC Elaina and Kylie’s sister-like friendship began long before either can remember. Being cousins meant that any special occasion or holiday was always a place to hangout together. As they grew older they discovered their love of horses which was shared between the cousins and their late grandfather, Kurt. They spent many summers competing at horse shows together. Elaina, Kylie, and Erica (cousin/sister) would use the summer to plan how they were going to have fun when they weren’t busy competing at the Missouri State Fair horse show! This was the big horse show at the end of every summer that the girls spent so much time and effort preparing for. Some of Elaina’s favorite memories with Kylie include filming the "comedy" movies at thier grandparents house and the countless summers spent at Kylie’s house pool when they were kids. Fun fact: Elaina was a bridesmaid at Kylie’s wedding in 2020!
Sarah
Bridesmaid
Photo from Dec 2022 at Sarah’s house Elaina met Sarah when she moved to Arkansas in 2022. The two kicked off an impecable sister-like bond and there were many time Sarah invited Elaina into her home to stay while Kyle was still working in Kansas City. The two share a love for dogs, loaded nutritional teas, and football. Elaina and Kyle’s favorite memory with Sarah was spending the afternoon at UrbanAir in Conway, AR accompanied by Nick (husband), Maddie (daughter), and Kellan (son). Sarah and Elaina often find themselves finishing each other’s sentences and will find any excuse for an adventure.
