Katelyn & Eric
Wedding Party
Hayden
Best Man
He's one of those Clemson fans *sigh* but that's OK. I'm glad he's my brother-in-law and even happier to have him stand by me as my best man on my wedding day.
Emily
Maid of Honor
Emily is my witty, smart, charismatic little sister. She always has my back and the one that truly knows me best. She is always honest, even if I don't like what she has to say. Emily has a big heart and loves to help people. While she may be my opposite in a lot of things, I wouldn't know what to do without my sister!
Randy
Groomsman
If you ever need anything, Randy is your guy. Whether it's milk, tortillas, or help to remove an oil filter he'll help any way he can. We'll also become Call of Duty pros eventually.
Courtney
Bridesmaid
After moving to GA, Courtney was one of my first friends. We quickly found out we were like two peas in a pod. We both enjoy a good glass of wine, strolling down the aisles at Target, browsing for things we don't need at Ulta, and going for early dinners. She's my go-to gal and I am very thankful for her friendship.
Ryan
Groomsman
We should be future GMs or advisors to the current GMs for our respective favorite sports teams. Maybe one of our teams will win a championship in the near future.
Vania
Bridesmaid
Vania and I met both working at the local YMCA. After a few shifts together we found out we had a lot in common and were fast friends. She is such a fun person to be around! She also helps bring out my creative side. Even though life has taken us down different paths, we have still remained in contact and good friends. Though we may not talk every day, we can always pick up right where we left off.
Caleb
Groomsman
Publix, what else can I say?! From pulling an all-nighter playing Gears of War to just hanging out and talking about life.
Mallica
Bridesmaid
I have known Mallica for as long as Eric and I have been together. We attended the same colleges and even had a couple of classes together. She's always down to check out a coffee shop or try a new restaurant. We share a common love of Target and Ulta. She is a DIY queen and more recently a plant lady. With her guidance, maybe I can become a plant lady too. That is, if I can keep a plant alive for more than a week.
Michael
Groomsman
Publix...again! I always give him a hard time and we're always cracking jokes at one another. Just like Caleb, we've spent countless nights playing video games and just hanging out.
Abby
Bridesmaid
Abby is my sister from another mister! She is a good friend of the family and has been coming around for quite some time. She has a certain fondness for Reece's Peanut Butter Cups that earned her the nickname Reece Cup. She is always comedic relief in the Thornton household, particularly when she picks on my dad. I'm thankful she came into our lives.
Karl
Groomsman
I have never met anyone in my life that loves fishing more than Karl. Maybe one of these days I'll get out on the pond with him.
Derek
Groomsman
What can I say? Derek is my little brother and I love him to death!
