My favorite picture of me and emily!! Emily/Alec and I met at the best college in the world: Queens University of Charlotte My favorite memory is always making a week long celebration of Emily and Alec’s birthdays. It’s a holiday and you MUST take off work for the entire week.

I met Alec about 23 years ago in Forsyth Hospital, I met Emily about 15 years after that in the living room of our parent’s house. My favorite memory of Alec and I is growing up together and playing poor people in the woods. My favorite memory of Emily and I is that one time we won a chili cook off. How lucky am I to get to grow up with a brother and now I get to have a sister and we all get to be bffs forever!

Emily and I met as kids playing soccer for KSA. We reconnected when her parents moved into Pine Knolls and have been best friends ever since. What started as meeting up for a run to catch up on life quickly turned into a cherished friendship and some of the best memories! Having Emily as a best friend means unwavering support, an ear to listen, and guaranteed entertainment no matter what! Some of my favorite memories are from her birthday celebrations over the years! The love Emily and Alec share is apparent to all of those around them and I couldn’t be happier for them as they take this next step in their relationship! I’m so honored to be a part of their special day!

Emily, Alec and I met at Queen’s freshman orientation. My favorite memory of us is eating meals together in the dining hall with all of our friends.

Emily and I met through mutual friends and of course the alec’s are lovers so it was unavoidable that we became besties. There’s so many to choose from but one of my favorite memories is building a welcome sign for alec’s front door. we had to stain the wood and we may or may not have gotten it all over ourselves, Alec’s driveway, the letters and had to repaint them multiple times. We found some gorilla glue and decided that was the best option to make the letters stick to the sign. Needless to say u had to be there… but that’s what I love about our friendship is we don’t have to be doing anything extravagant to just have fun.

We met through our parents being siblings... My favorite memory is the constant cheer/dance routines I was made to do when we were younger any time I visited… although now it’s tiktoks I’m being forced to do.

My favorite memory with Alec is coaching him all those years in ball and sitting in the deer stand in 30 degree weather at 5 am.

Alec and I met when I was his summer ball coach. My favorite memory is when Alec and I had a date night taking a sunset cruise eating pizza on the pontoon.

Alec and I met on our summer legend ball team. My favorite memory of Alec and I is the first time I drove him home. He was giving me directions and told me right here so I looked to my right and it was a driveway to an old abandoned barn. From that moment on I learned that he doesn’t know his left from his right, unless he secretly has been living in an old barn.
Alec Beckerdite

Alec and I met when we were little and I introduced myself as the real Alec. There's too many memories to choose from that aren't safe to say, but let's just say we've had some good times.

Alec and I met summer of 2020 playing summer ball for Mocksville Muscadines, Roll Grapes. Emily and I met summer of 2021 at Waters Edge. My favorite memory of us is watching both Alec and Emily try to body surf behind the boat together.

I met Alec the same time I met Emily. In Barnhardt 104, which was our 4-bed room which consisted of 2 bunk beds while Alec was moving. We were allowed to move in at 9am so I got there at 8:30 to make sure I got first choice because I was not going to be sleeping on the top bunk. Well that didn’t happen because Alec got there at 8 to make sure he got the first pick. My favorite memory of us is sitting in our room playing video games our freshman year laughing for hours about baseball, school, or whatever Ronnie Woo Woo was up to in the room beside us

I met Emily and Alec freshman year of college at Queens! My favorite memory of us is the day I called Alec and he told me that the man standing in the middle of this picture is going to be marrying him and his best, but will also be marrying me and my best next year!
