Wedding Party
Ben
Groom
Ben is the calm, steady, and loving person at the center of so many of our favorite memories together. From fishing trips and days spent out on the water to building a life side by side, he has brought so much happiness, laughter, and support into Abbie’s life. After meeting while both living in Bangor during college, Abbie quickly realized there was something special about him — especially after learning he loved fishing just as much as she did. He’s always the patient one whenever fishing trips go sideways too — whether it’s a wind knot or Abbie tangling up her bait caster again, Ben is always the first to hand over his own pole and untangle the mess without complaint. Abbie feels so grateful to be marrying her best friend and celebrating this next chapter together.
Abbie
Bride
Abbie is the heart behind so much of this wedding — from the cozy details to the wildflower-inspired vision we can’t wait to share with everyone we love. Thoughtful, creative, and hardworking, she always finds ways to make the people around her feel cared for. Whether it’s crafting, planning cozy gatherings, or spending time outdoors with the people she loves most, she pours so much care into everything she does. Ben feels incredibly lucky to be marrying his best friend and starting this next chapter together.
Izzi
Best Man
Izzi is Ben’s sister and someone who has always been an important part of his life. She is incredibly intelligent, hardworking, and always the person her family can count on no matter what they need. Between her sense of humor, loyalty, and caring nature, she brings so much to the people around her. Abbie feels incredibly lucky to not only be gaining a husband, but another sister as well.
Alex
Maid of Honor
Alex is Abbie’s sister, best friend, and one of the most important people in her life. Growing up together created countless memories, laughs, and moments that only sisters understand. While Alex may not always be as outwardly sentimental or lovey-dovey as Abbie, she has a heart of gold and would do absolutely anything for the people she loves. Having her standing beside her on this day means more than words can say.
Jon
Groomsman
Jon is one of Ben’s best friends, Harry’s brother, and another one of the friends Ben met while attending Husson University for physical therapy — they are all now physical therapists themselves. Over the years, their group has stayed incredibly close through fishing trips, bonfires, game nights, and countless memories together. Him and his girlfriend, Michelle, are always down for a relaxed night hanging out, and we love them both so much.
Kenzi
Bridesmaid
Kenzi is Ben’s sister and someone who always brings fun, energy, and laughter wherever she goes. She has such a free-spirited personality and a way of making people feel comfortable and included the moment they meet her. Like Abbie, she also has a creative side and loves crafting, which has made their bond even more special over the years. Kenzi is always there for her family whenever they need her, and Abbie is so excited to not only be gaining a husband, but another sister as well.
Harry
Groomsman
Harry is one of Ben’s best friends, Jon’s brother, and another lifelong friend from Husson University where they all completed the physical therapy program together and are now physical therapists. Whether it’s bonfires, fishing, game nights, or just spending time together, he and his wife, Allison, always help bring everyone together and make every gathering more fun. We’re so thankful for their friendship and so happy to have Harry standing beside us on such an important day.
Naomi
Bridesmaid
Naomi and Abbie met while attending UMA in Bangor, and their friendship quickly became one filled with nonstop laughs, support, and unforgettable memories. Naomi has such an awesome personality and somehow always knows exactly how to make any situation more fun — especially when Megan Thee Stallion comes on and she starts rapping every lyric flawlessly. It’s impossible not to laugh and have a good time around her, and Abbie is so excited to have her standing beside her on such an important day.
Glen
Groomsman
Glen is one of Ben’s best friends from Husson University, where they all went through the physical therapy program together and are now physical therapists. Like the rest of the group, Glen is always down for fishing trips, bonfires, and spending time outdoors. Abbie may be the only person who calls him “Glen Coco,” and he mostly just puts up with it because it’s her. We’re so excited to have him celebrating with us on such an important day.
Maggie
Bridesmaid
Maggie and Abbie first met playing field hockey in middle school after Maggie transferred to her school, and Abbie is beyond thankful she did. Since then, Maggie has been one of her very best friends through so many stages of life. Maggie now works as a Chief Mate on a tugboat in beautiful Alaska, which perfectly fits her adventurous and hardworking personality. Abbie couldn’t imagine celebrating this day without her beside her.
James
Groomsman
James and Ben met while attending Husson University and quickly became close through the PT program. From school to weekends spent with the whole friend group, James has been part of so many great memories over the years. We’re so excited to have him standing beside Ben on our wedding day!
Haley
Bridesmaid
Haley and Abbie met in dental hygiene school, where they quickly became best friends while surviving the chaos and stress of the program together. Haley may be quieter and more reserved, while Abbie tends to be the louder and more outgoing one, but somehow their personalities fit perfectly together. Whether it’s fishing, staying up way too late working on puzzles together, or just spending time together doing absolutely anything, Haley is always down for an adventure. Abbie is incredibly thankful not only for Haley’s friendship, but for the love and support of her entire family as well.
Steve
Groomsman
Steve is Ben’s uncle and has played a huge role throughout his life. From childhood memories to important milestones, Steve has always been someone Ben could look up to and rely on. The two have shared countless laughs, stories, and adventures over the years, and Ben is incredibly grateful for the influence Steve has had on the man he has become. Having Steve stand by his side on his wedding day means the world to him.
Sam
Bridesmaid
Sam and Abbie met while attending USM in science class, where they quickly realized they both had strong personalities — especially anytime they were put together in group projects and both wanted to be in charge. Somehow, outside of class, they always got along perfectly and became incredibly close friends through the years. Sam now lives in Nashville with her husband Drennon, their sweet baby Nolan, and their dog, and Abbie has loved watching their beautiful little family grow. She’s so excited to have Sam standing beside her while celebrating such an important day.
Michael
Groomsman
Michael was one of the first people Ben met at Husson University during freshman orientation, and what started as a simple introduction quickly turned into a lifelong friendship. Throughout college, the two spent countless hours together making memories, navigating classes, celebrating accomplishments, and helping each other through life’s challenges. No matter what life threw their way, they could always count on one another for support, advice, and a good laugh. Ben is grateful to have Michael standing by his side on his wedding day.
