Wedding Party
Bridesmaids
Lauren Williams
Introducing Lauren, my beloved Maid of Honor, whose friendship has been a beacon of light since we became roommates in 2020. I knew we were destined to be best friends when we playfully turned moving day into a game of football and basketball with empty boxes. Lauren’s kindness, love, and unwavering faith in Jesus light up every room she enters. We've shared countless treasured moments, from late-night talks to shared laughter that filled our home. Though I'll miss those conversations, I’m grateful for the time we shared. With her by my side, I know the future will be filled with love and light.
Amber Sammons
Meet Amber, my radiant Matron of Honor, whose presence adds extra sparkle to my life. Our friendship began in 2008 when she and Sam became roommates at Columbia College, instantly forming an unbreakable bond. Amber's kindness, intelligence, and infectious energy shine through everything she does. Her hardworking nature is paired with genuine joy in celebrating others' achievements. From our laughter-filled lunch dates to the inspiring moments at the Chosen Conference in Charleston, Amber’s loyalty and love enrich my life. She’s not just a friend but an inspiration, and I’m grateful for the adventures we’ll continue to share.
Sam Moore
Meet Sam, my lifelong neighbor-turned-adopted sister, whose presence has brightened my life since childhood. In 1991, when she moved next door and my mom was pregnant with me, I quickly declared at age five that I would adopt her. Since then, our bond has grown into an unbreakable sisterhood. With her brilliant mind, quick wit, and love for dogs and motherhood, Sam lights up every room. Despite her move to Texas, our friendship remains strong, transcending distance. Sam is not just a bridesmaid; she’s a constant source of inspiration, and I am grateful for her unwavering presence in my life.
Rachel Hostetler
Meet Rachel, not just my sister-in-law, but the sister I never knew I needed. Our bond grew instantly in September 2022 at Taylor’s graduation from Power School, and it's as strong as the love for CrossFit that brought us together. We share a passion for reading, especially the magical world of Harry Potter, where our Gryffindor hearts belong. Rachel’s love for adventure knows no bounds—she’s a roller coaster enthusiast, globe-trotter, and a positive force for the environment in her day-to-day life in Arizona. Rachel isn’t just a bridesmaid; she’s an extraordinary friend, and I’m beyond grateful to have her by my side as we begin this new journey together.
Groomsmen
Stephen Bremer
Meet Stephen, my best friend and best man, who has been by my side through all of life’s adventures. Friends throughout college, we would spend long days playing whatever strange games we decided to try. Whether it was grinding through CrossFit workouts, hiking the Grand Canyon and every trail near Phoenix, or hitting the slopes, Stephen’s been there. We even conquered a challenging 14er in Colorado together, pushing each other every step of the way. He’s the kind of friend who makes every challenge more rewarding, and I couldn’t imagine this journey without him by my side.
Alex Hostetler
Meet Alex, my older brother and one of my groomsmen. He’s always up for anything, whether it’s hiking, rock climbing, or catching a flight overseas. Alex lives for new experiences and never backs down from a challenge. As a tour guide for REI and a ranger in Utah, he’s made adventure his life. He’s also one of the most encouraging and kind-hearted people I know, always there to support and push you to take on that next big thing. Having him by my side means I know I’ll always have someone ready for the next thrill.
Austin Perrine
Meet Austin, one of my groomsmen and a lifelong friend. We grew up together, going to Sunday school, middle school, and high school side by side. We’ve spent years pushing each other through CrossFit, always striving to be better. Austin’s smart and determined and having him stand by me on this day means a lot.
Jack Hostetler
Meet Jack, my younger brother and one of my groomsmen. He’s married with an adorable baby girl. Jack’s working hard to become a physician assistant in Washington. Us siblings have always been close and stuck doing everything together. I can thank Jack for being the only person to believe me when I started recommending everyone start watching anime. Now he’s one of the few I can enjoy discussing it with. Hopefully, Erin doesn’t slow my progress by too much!
