Lauren Hilton
Matron of Honor & Sister
I know not everyone is lucky enough to have a sister, but I feel like I’ve hit the jackpot -not only having a sister close in age, but having the best sister. Lauren is a superwoman with MANY talents but is also one of the most humble people you will meet. She is the best mom to Conway, Potter, Estes and Glory (my amazing nephews and niece) and she and Cooper (my BIL) have shown me up close what an amazing marriage looks like.
Tracy Nadler
How does one describe your friendship with your oldest friend? Tracy and I met in middle school and became fast and best friends. We have seen each other through all phases of life, both joyful, and of course, the harder ones. I could write a novel about all the adventures and antics Tracy and I got into, especially in our younger years, but I’ll have her save those for sharing at the wedding ;) She is one of the most FUN, energetic people I know and is like a sister to me!
Lexi Brantmeier
I met Lexi through Kristen in my early Watermark days and I still laugh that I invited myself to her 30th birthday party even though I think I had only met her once before then. We’ve had so many memories over the years - many of the best ones on the lake on her and Paul’s Third Day boat! She’s a gem of a human and I’m thankful to call her friend!
Taylor Busboom
Taylor and I met in graduate school in 2004 and she is one of my favorite people in life. She’s a huge part of me coming back to church in my 20s and she makes me want to be more like Jesus and know Him more because she pursues him so fiercely. We have the best time since we have also been neighbors now for several years, so I’m always hanging out at her house with her awesome family and bringing Chris now too! Fun fact - Taylor’s anniversary and Alison’s birthday both fall on July 29th.
Kristen Fraser
Kristen and I met in Watermark Bible study 15?! years ago and instantly became close friends. She asks the best questions of anyone you’ll ever meet and truly cares deeply about her friends and people. She has prayed for my husband for many years and it’s great to have her be a part of this special season and it come full circle.
Emily Schulhoff
Emily - my “seasons of life” twin - is one of the most special people I know! She is brilliant, generous, funny, and can recap any situation or memory in the most hilarious and accurate way. We’ve been in community for over 10 years now and have had way too many memories to count (especially many fun travel memories!).
Johnna Sheppard
Johnna and I met as we were going on a mission trip to Haiti a decade ago. Johnna is one of the most discerning and genuine people you’ll ever meet and is a woman of faith and prayer. She is truly one of those friends who you just know is genuinely happy for and celebrating you. She’s seen so much of my journey over the past several years and I’m grateful to have her be a part of the wedding.
