The Players, I mean Attendents

Ashley Edge- Matron of Honor, Sister-in-law, Mommy to GabbiElla and Rylin (the bestest kids ever)

Let's start off easy: Favorite wedding food? Wedding Cake, that is what makes most weddings individual... each cake says something about the couple!!

Best part of weddings? Falling in Love all over, I know I'm a hopeless Romantic, but something about weddings just reminds me of how you fell in love the first time!!
Is this title a honor or hindrance?  Definitely an Honor! Why? Of everyone you know you chose me to stand beside you on the most important day of your life and be a part of it all!! Love it!!

How long have you known the bride?
   Best memory with her? I have known Sara for a little over four years and I have so many great memories with her, there are just too many to list... I would have to say that the best memory would have to be our first Black Friday together. Donna and Sara took this poor small-town girl out shopping at Quail Springs Mall and I totally thought I was lost... of course Sara and Donna had their eyes on me but I sure thought I was Lost!! We have so many memories though Laughter fills our lives!! (Editors note- Ashley also said "This is the first time I've ever been in a two story mall before!" Then Mom told her about the food court being on a lower level- her face was priceless!)
Disney character that reminds you of Sara? Well in the words of my 3 year old Princess I would have to say that you remind me most of Tiana. She knows what she wants and has goals that she sets for herself and reaches them! I'm super glad to have you as a sister!

Words of wisdom for Aaron and Sara? Three things will last forever--faith, hope, and love--and the greatest of these is love 1 Corinthians 13:13
Remember your love for each other each and every day.

God has brought you two together to walk this journey of life together.
Remember to never go to sleep angry, always settle your differences.
Remember that marriage is work it's not easy but it is worth it.
Love is not always easy but just remember that it is always worth it! Remember that most of all!
Life is about living so live it to your fullest!

Brett Zielke- Best Man, Best Friend of Aaron, Future Groom (April 7, 2012!)

Let's start off easy: Favorite wedding food? Those little tortilla roll-up things.
 

Best part of weddings? Dancing! (Also drinking).
 

Is this title a honor or hindrance? Why? It's an honor, he is my Other Brother after all. 
How long have you known the groom? We started hanging out our junior year of college... so since 2007-ish? 
Best memory with him? Way too many to narrow down. Although if I had to choose, it'd probably be that OU game, with the holding call, and his mother there... He knows the one.
 

Disney character that reminds you of Aaron? Um, I dunno... Donald Duck maybe? Why couldn't it be Star Wars characters? He's totally the Chewbacca to my Han Solo. Or vice-versa if he wants to be Han. 
Words of wisdom for Aaron and Sara? Communication is absolutely key to a successful marriage. Also Sexy Time. But mainly communication.

Proposal Story

Okay for those of you needing details on the proposal here they are!
Aaron and I had planned on having a Tuesday night date. For us that means a home cooked meal followed by NCIS. Aaron told me on Sunday that he was cooking dinner and I said that was great. We assembled dinner and chit chatted about the upcoming weekend with his family since they were coming in for his graduation. He said following dinner he wanted to take a quick walk to break in his new shoes.

After dinner we walked outside and it was sprinkling so Aaron said, "Let's give it a few minutes, I think it will clear up." I said "fine" and we both started working on our computers. About 10 minutes later he said, "Okay, let's go". I said "Aaron, it's still sprinkling, why don't we watch NCIS?" Aaron "No, no it's fine, let's go."
