Officiant
Christina's grandfather Mike Buus will be the officiant marrying Kyle and Christina.
Bridesmaid
Christina and Caitlin met in college in a Physical Education course for teachers class and bonded over their very wacky professor. We still laugh about him telling us that refried beans is one of the healthiest foods on the food pyramid. We bonded over our love of going on adventures and laughing at memes.
Bridesmaid
Christina and Madison met the first week of college, and lived together for two years when they both went to Florida Atlantic University. We bonded over our love of cheesy potatoes, and people watching at our job at a sports bar called Bru's Room in Delray Beach, Florida.
Bridesmaid
Christina and Jessie met when she moved to Mooresville, NC and needed a math tutor. She quickly became my workout buddy, and we both quit Whole 30 after 20 terrible days of the diet for Mexican food. We both have a love for HGTV, and an addiction to ice cream
Bridesmaid
Christina and Jeka met at a birthday party of a mutual friend, and ended up talking about fashion until the place kicked everyone out. We bonded over our newfound love of outdoor adventures, and spent our Charlotte years exploring around North Carolina.
Bridesmaid
Christina and Erin met in Destin, Florida where Kyle and Erin's husband, Levi, went to EOD school together. We bonded over going to a beach wedding of the boys, which was a true military wedding. We both love doing DIY projects (except Erin is always way more committed and finishes the projects) and going on local adventures since we are both new to the area. Erin also took our beautiful engagement photos!
Groomsman
Kyle's brother PJ is going to be a groomsman in the wedding. Luckily, PJ is one of Kyle's best friends! Growing up these two bickered about food and who had control over the remote. They bonded over their love of video games, which they still play together in their free time.
Groomsman
Kyle met Garrett in the early years of high school while in a music appreciation class at Estero High School. They lived right around the corner from each other and spent all of their free time together when they had it. From the pancake crows at midnight to Pam's house the two were inseparable and always in some adventure together.
Groomsman
Kyle met Shane while they were both on their journey to become EOD Techs. They were roommates sleeping a foot apart for a year and a half through all of EOD school. He put up with Kyle's loud snoring and late night snacking the entire time, and they are still working together doing EOD at Fort Bragg.
Groomsman
Kyle met Andrew back when they trained together with Mr. Knowles as preparation for the military. As Black thunder (Kyle) and White lightning (Andrew), no matter where in the world one or the other may be, will always be be connected. Go Army beat Navy!
Groomsman
Kyle met Corey at EOD school in Destin, Florida. They were in the same class together and bonded over beers and cooking out on weekends. From fights with Fos to being in the Slipknot pit together, these two continue to have great adventures. Corey also works with Kyle doing EOD on Fort Bragg.
Flower Girl
Christina's brothers Matthew and Dylan will be the flower boys at the wedding, as specially requested by them after the engagement!
Ring Bearer
Christina's sister Sam and her family friend Emma Creech will be walking the rings down the aisle (and hopefully not losing them) for the wedding!
Usher
Christina and Turner met when she moved to Mooresville and lived in his home as a "homeless mansion dweller" while doing her student teaching at a local elementary school.
