Hailey Cush
Flower Girl
Hailey is Greg’s niece, the daughter of David and Danika Cush. She is three years old, has lots of sass, and loves to do whatever her brother Owen is doing. Her uncles spoil her with anything pink and she loves to give anyone the "eye roll", although she is a very sweet loving little girl.
Jonathan Cush
Groomsman
Jonathan is Greg’s eldest brother and is a piece of the puzzle for how Greg and Karley met. Jonathan and his wife Marissa operate Cush Farms where Greg would tag along to horse shows.

David Cush
Groomsman

Erik Cush
