Wedding Party

Ellie Matheny

Maid of Honor

Ellie and Jessica met when Ellie made her grand entrance into the world in 2005. Ellie has been the best little sister a girl can ask for. They love their late-night TJ Maxx runs, putting the dumbest songs they could find on the radio to annoy their parents, gossip, and always being there for each other to celebrate big life events.

Sean Pepper

Best Man

Sean is Ryan’s built-in best friend. Eighteen months apart, they were inseparable their entire adolescence and are closer than ever as they continue to grow.

Katrina Reed

Bridesmaid

Katrina met Jessica for the first time in the summer of 2019 over a family dinner featuring tacos. As Ryan's older sister, she has shown them how to navigate adult life. She is the big sister Jessica never had growing up, and she is so excited to call her family officially. Katrina is also the mother of Harper Reed who is turning two in March of 2024.

Cole Zandbergen

Groomsman

Cole and Ryan have been friends since middle school, they also worked together at Domino’s, and attended UAH together

Jordan Lasater

Bridesmaid

Jordan met Jessica in the summer of 2019 as Jordan started dating Ryan's brother, Sean. Since then, the four of them have been together through life's ups and downs. You can always count on her to show up and be there with her phone battery on less than 20%, the coolest water bottle you've ever seen, and give you the shirt off her back if you needed it.

Ryan Clark

Groomsman

Ryan met Ryan a little over ten years ago, they spent countless summers together and have been able to see each other grow and learn both personally and professionally

Ardis Haskell

Bridesmaid

Ardis and Jessica met in the spring of 2022 as they were forced to be lab partners in their organic chemistry class. Their friendship grew fast since they had quality time working together for at least three hours every week, and trauma bonded after both passing the class! Since then, they have been inseparable, even though Ardis is an absolute nerd. But Jess loves her.

Grayson Stiegler

Groomsman

Grayson and Ryan met at Domino’s in 2017, they mastered pizza making and have grown a friendship that is bound to be lifelong

Brooke Meeks

Bridesmaid

Brooke and Jessica met in the fall of 2014 at the 8th-grade new student orientation when they both moved to Singapore and attended Singapore American School. Between celebrating Aloha Fridays, being absolute nerds about video games, adventuring, and sharing gossip over a Wendy's frosty, they have been best friends ever since.

Jonah Berg

Groomsman

Jonah came to work at Domino’s under Ryan, where (with some help from other groomsmen) they brought Jonah out of his shell and have been friends ever since

Trinity Tennant

Bridesmaid

Trinity and Jessica met through the Kappa Delta sorority, which Jessica joined in the spring of 2022. It wasn't until the fall of 2023, when they hung out on bid day, that they really clicked. Between studying biology together, having the same perspective on life, and being such a bright light, it's hard not to be best friends with Trinity.

Alan Walliser

Groomsman

Alan hired Ryan to work at Domino’s, he also hired Jessica. When Ryan arrived at domino’s Alan was closed off, Ryan and some of his groomsmen decided to change them, and now Alan is a great friend

Moose

Dog of Honor

Moose is a 2-year-old Lab/Cane Corso mix that Ryan and Jessica rescued from Atlanta Lab Rescue in January 2023. He has been so much fun, very photogenic, and never fails to put a smile on people's faces. However, he will not be able to make it due to scheduling conflicts with his busy work schedule at the peanut butter-eating factory.
