After a short video presentation of the couple’s engagement was shown, the mothers of the bride and groom prepared the sand foundation for the sand ceremony.
The matron of honor was the bride’s sister, Julie Bullard. Bridesmaids were Nicole Shelton, cousin of the bride and Karen Willmore and Kelley Wilmore, sisters of the groom. The best man was Dusten Brown, friend of the groom. Kyle Willmore, brother of the groom, Justin Mayberry, friend of the groom and Jeff Bullard, brother-in-law of the bride, were groomsmen. Joanna Musgrave, friend of the bride, maintained the guest register, and Jenny McClure, cousin of the bride, attended the gift register. The groom selected Zack Bullard, nephew of the bride, and Chad Miner, cousin of the groom, as ushers. Programs and wedding favors were passed out by the nephews of the bride, Jeffrey and William Bullard.
Juanita Likens, long-time friend of the bride, was the pianist. The bride’s brother, Roger Walker Jr., played Johann Pachelbel’s “Canon in D” on his classical guitar for the wedding processional.
