Dylan has worked by Chance's side for over 5 years at Lafontaine and during that time they became more than just best friends but family. Beyond hunting, fishing and countless other adventures Chance and Dylan share a bond most people would cherish forever
Carly Coomes - Maid Of Honor
Carly is one of Eliana's closest cousins, more like a sister than a cousin. Like a godess she is the epitome of strength and beauty. Growing up we spent a lot of time together whether it was climbing in trees, going for walks, or playing cards at Grandma Hitchcock's kitchen table. No matter where it was, we were always laughing.
Chanda Lefke - Bridesmaid
Chanda is a close friend (bestie) of Elianas. We met through working at Oakwood elementary school in 2022 and have been inseparable ever since. We both share a love for being in nature, holiday season festivities, and being crafty. Chanda is a fierce friend and Im incredibly fortunate to have her in my life.
Chloe Foltz - Bridesmaid
Chloe is Elianas sister-in-law. We all know her by "Auntie Chlo". She is the one you want in your corner, someone you can always count on. Chloe is undoubtedly the best role model, friend, and sister. From going on spontaneous adventures, rating new foods, or playing with our fur babies, time with Auntie chlo is time well spent. She loves her niece, nephew, and fur babies with all her heart and we love her so much back.
Amelia Brewer - Junior Bridesmaid
Amelia is Elianas oldest niece/ first baby. My relationship with Amelia started when I was in high school, my brother and sister in law blessed the world with her. I was very protective over her; she prepared me for motherhood. Now she's growing into the most beautiful talented young lady. She excels anything she puts her mind to and makes us so proud every day.
Lydia Brewer - Junior Bridesmaid
Lydia is Elianas youngest niece. Lydia has shined so bright since the day she was born. Ophelia looks up to her so much, for her sense of fashion, her strength, and her spunky personality that makes us love her more every day. Lydia just like her older sister Amelia both excel academically, athletically, and spiritually. She makes this world a better place.
Jason Hoisington - Groomsman
Jason also known as "J-Bird" came into Chance's Life Through Dylan roughly 5 years ago. He and Chance share passions in more areas than not but the one that sticks out the most is the passion for family. Jason is in the U.S. Army, and we are blessed he took the time out of his busy schedule to be with us!
Travis Clark - Groomsman
Travis and Chance Might be Long lost brothers in another life. They could easily bypass security at just about any place impersonating one another. One thing is for certain they both came from the same place as Vikings. And like Vikings they spend weeks in the woods exploring, hunting, surviving with nothing other than company and a fire to keep spirits up. In these experiences is where we found true brotherhood and a bond that will last many lifetimes.
Ty Foltz - Groomsman
Tyler Geroge Foltz aka "Uncle Buck" We love you like a little brother and a big uncle at the same time. You shine such a huge light in Ophelia's life and in our lives. You take such pride is being such a great uncle, husband and son, and we truly don't know what we'd do without you!
CJ Morgan - Groomsman
CJ can bring a room of people to tears cracking a joke or just simply being himself! Never a dull moment when Uncle CJ shows up! He golfs like John Daly and Hunts like Fred Bear; He drives his truck like Dale Earnhardt and Rides his Harley like a cowboy. We take every chance we can get to hang out with the one and only fun Uncle CJ
Ophelia Haight - Flower Girl
Our Sweet angel sent front heaven. We like to think she was handpicked by Grandma Amy and sent to us wrapped in silk. She is perfect in every way possible and has brought joy to every life she's touched. One day she's a diva princess, the next day she's spending time exploring creeks deep in the woods with Mom and Dad. She completes our lives and makes us proud in every way possible!
