I admire your drive and the way you approach life, and I’m grateful to have a friend who shares so many of the things that are important to me. It means so much to have you standing beside me as I celebrate this next chapter.

We’ve both grown so much since those middle school band days, and I’m grateful to have had you alongside me for such an important season of life. Having you stand beside me on my wedding day makes this next chapter even more special.
