Wedding Party
Cheyan Wittmann

Rachel calls Chey her soul sister and can't imagine her life without her.

Liv recently had the cutest baby boy ever named Brady and Rachel is sooo excited to be an Auntie!

Matthew Koppinger
Groomsman
Matthew "Koppy" Koppinger became friends with Jackson at the University of Arizona. Both enjoy baseball, and attempting to surf. Big emphasis on "attempt". Koppy just graduated from Optometry school so if you need your eyes checked, we know a guy.
Danny Arensdorf
Groomsman
Danny and Jackson became good friends during Jackson's Sophomore year of high school when he had to be demoted from Spanish 3 to Spanish 1 with the freshmen because of his lack of skills in the classroom. Danny and Jackson both battled for the lowest grade in the class that year. Funny enough, Danny will accompany Jackson this year in completing their Masters in Business Administration. Unfortunately, they both are still pretty bad at Spanish.
Mitchell Huntington
Groomsman
Mitchell and Jackson became good friends in second grade when Mitchell used to bomb kickballs at recess and Jackson was the only one able to catch them. Jackson kept running the ball back over to him to kick again cause it was fun to catch them nukes. Buds ever since!
Slade Farrow
Groomsman
Slade and Jackson met at the Aggie House at the U of A. Jackson and Slade were the house manager and co house manager at the Aggie House and did their best attempting to wrangle a bunch of hooligans inside of a frat house to collect rent. They both love sports and also nerding out with things like Star Wars and Lord of the Rings. If you want to know about flying planes, Hawaii, or AMC stock... hit him up!
Billy Miller
Groomsman
Billy is Jackson's brother in law. He's always the guy to ask about anything tech, investments, or video games. In fact, Billy advised that Jackson invest in crypto opportunity, which he used to help purchase Rachel's ring. What a guy!
Ryan Garcia
Groomsman
Ryan is Rachel's older brother. He's always up for an adventure.. from firefighting to working/living on the Pacific Crest trail for months. He helped inspire Rachel's sense of adventure and love for the outdoors.
Ruby Doodle Duda
Flower Girl
Ruby is Rachel and Jackson's goldendoodle. When Rachel first told Jackson she was getting a goldendoodle, Jackson rolled his eyes thinking he wanted a "more manly dog." Fast forward today, Rachel has become the third wheel in the house. Ruby is the biggest love bug and such a ray of sunshine. Rachel and Jackson can't imagine not coming home to this floof everyday.
