Officiant
One of the first things Josh told me, when we started getting more serious in our relationship, is that if we get married Jim Crockett will be our officiant. Of course I was on board, but the day I met Pastor Crockett confirmed just how much God was IN our relationship! We quickly discovered that my Grandaddy, Preson Phillips, was Pastor Crockett’s seminary professor. Could the world be any smaller?! We are so blessed that Pastor said yes to being a part of our big day. We are thoroughly enjoying his leadership and mentorship through marriage counseling. Being able to talk through the deep stuff with the Biblical guidance of Pastor Crockett and his wife is such a blessing!
Maid of Honor
My sister! The woman who has leaned in 100% to help me through these last 34 years of life! Our mother always told us to be nice to each other, because one day that’s all we will have. Although that’s not fully true yet, and hopefully not for a long time, I completely understand the truth behind her words. I would not have made it through the last 4 years without my sister! She is such a strong woman and cares deeply for those around her!
Bridesmaid
My soon to be sister-in-law! The one who helped keep Josh in line and now is willingly turning him over to me! She has embraced me with loving arms and cannot wait to be “in the family” soon!!
Bridesmaid
The girl who let me chase her around the playground in second grade until she finally gave in to being best friends Aka Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen on the weekends! A lifelong friend is real thing, because the older we get the closer we are! Our moments together get more special as each day goes by!
Bridesmaid
The girl who became a “sister” by default when our mothers would take turns picking us up from cheer practice or taking us to school! From Pom-poms in elementary…to running races together in our adult years…our bond just keeps growing stronger!
Bridesmaid
She has always been a sounding board for me. From sharing the same classes in high school…to watching her embrace her journey outside of Tally… to growing SUPER close in our adult years… I can always count on this girl to speak solid advice and encouragement to me! She walked by my side through my worst years as an adult, and always reminded me that God has got me through it all! Not to mention she is super talented in so many ways!!
Bridesmaid
When volleyball and softball brought us together (even though she was SO much better than me), and then our friendship grew even closer at Florida State and line dancing nights at Stetsons…I couldn’t have made it through some of my hardest moments without her by my side!
Bridesmaid
I think the ONLY reason I survived my first year of Marriott…my first city away from family…my 18 months of NoLa…was by God bringing me her! She taught me the best parts of a city that I grew to enjoy! Then we never skipped a beat! From Key West….to Puerto Rico….to Miami…. To New York…. It’s always a fun adventure with her!
Bridesmaid
Who knew Jesus would have this girl waiting for me in Tampa! The best small group ever to a friendship that grew by the years! Her story. Her energy. Her love for Jesus. This girl is a constant inspiration and motivation to me! And to think we both moved to Nashville, to live less than two blocks away from each other, was a dream come true!! She told me Josh was a keeper from day one. I am so excited to see this story play out!!
Best Man
When I met Heidi, I didn’t know I would eventually be gaining another brother! This guy has been there for me through a lot in the short years I’ve known him. Thankful to have him by my side!
Groomsman
Who knew when I was watching him play golf at my course when he was in high school that he would be my partner at work one day? Well now he’s in my wedding and one of my guys that I can lean on if I need anything!
Groomsman
What an honor to get to have one of my brothers standing by my side! I have loved watching our relationship grow and seeing an example in you of how to be a loving husband and father!
Groomsman
It has been very special to watch you grow from my little brother into one of my closest friends! I was honored to stand by your side on your big day, and I couldn’t ask for anyone else to join my group up there with me!
Groomsman
We started as golfing buddies who’d see each other in passing at the golf course and then we were roommates! We have built a good relationship, and I’m honored to have you by my side!
Groomsman
What started as a “coach/player” relationship has grown into a good friendship! I can rely on you to complain with each other about our jobs, and it’s been nice! I’m so thankful to have you by my side!
Groomsman
We were also that “student/coach” relationship but that has grown into a good friendship as well! We might not see each other all the time, but I know I have a close confidant I can rely on! Thanks for being with me on my big day!
Groomsman
We started as coworkers and now I have found a lifelong friend through all of our ups and downs in the golf business! I’m very thankful to have you in my life and by my side!
