Wedding Party

Meet Our Clan!

Hannah Stetson

Sister of the bride

Abbie's second oldest sister, Hannah is full of life and energy. When it comes to personality, Hannah characterizes "the best of both worlds": responsible at all times yet the carefree spirit that every party needs. Her passion is her drive and her energy is her fuel. She is the woman to make it happen. With already such beauty on the outside, it's a wonder to be gifted even greater beauty bursting from within. Hard working, intense and the definition of the protagonist.


Sam Cassese

Friend Since College

Jared’s college roommate, both reflective and energetic, Sam is truly a wonderful human. He is a die-hard Mets and Eagles fans, and has a passion for transformation, both for himself and others. He holds excellent conversations, is a great hype man when you need him, and has wisdom beyond his years. The perfect guy to have an adventure with, and often can’t contain his enthusiasm for the joys of life.

Liana Maeda

Friend Since College

Abbie pushed her way into this Hawaiian's life one day in the college library when she saw Liana overwhelmed by school and took it upon herself to assert her extroversion and summon a friendship-beginning pep talk. This dynamic would forever characterize their friendship—encouraging, empowering and supportive. Liana is the wing woman who always has your back, partner in crime with no judgement and fiercely loves without limit. Model of the enneagram 2, she is caring to overflow and the friend everyone deserves.


TJ Rosa

Friend Since College

TJ embodies strategic leadership, strategic thought, basically strategic anything. He excels at board games and complex interpersonal dynamics, loves good food, and has an indomitable spirit. He’ll do whatever it takes for the things that matter, and have a good time doing it. The definition of chaotic good, TJ is as close to a modern-day hero as they come, and has some of the funniest stories of any of Jared’s friends. Just ask him about how he saved the elderly woman at the beach.

Gigi Stetson

Sister of the bride

Sensitive and secretly silly, Gigi is a reserved introvert when you first meet her, then hilarious and wild when you've built her trust. She is dedicated and driven, focused and fierce and the woman you want organizing your party, room or schedule. If you get the joy of seeing Gigi's walls come down, you'll not only see her dancing like no one is watching and laughing without limit, but also the deep well of emotion and love she carries. Adventurous and daring, don't let her quiet smile fool you.


Brice Warwick

Childhood Friend

Perhaps Jared’s most fashionable friend, Brice embodies all that is calm and chill in the world. Willing to try almost anything at least once, he has a measured and relaxed approach to the world. He also has the best sense of color of any of Jared’s friends despite being red-green color-blind. He aspires to operate his own non-profit one day, and has a love of all things nerdy. Super Smash Bros is his jam.

Amanda Roberts

Childhood Friend

Look through any of Abbie's embarrassing Facebook photo albums from awkward jr. high years and you will find Amanda in every one. For over a decade, Amanda has remained constant, steadfast, loyal and cherished. This dear friendship has stood the test of time through various crushes, fashion trends, major life events and everything that falls in between. Opposites in so many ways, yet perfectly balancing to each others personalities like a soft serve twist on an August day. A rare friendship to last a lifetime.


Brent Parker

Childhood Friend

A quintessential creative, Parker excels when it comes to creating music, cinematography, and fung shui. Filled with wanderlust, he loves to travel to fun and exotic locales. A diehard Dolphins fan in enemy territory, his devotion to his team models much in his life—uncompromising with his values and passionate about what he loves. Humorous and free-spirited, Parker is loyal to a fault.

Rachel Stetson

Sister of the bride

Oldest of Abbie's seven siblings, Rachel took one for the team every time. As a lamb to the slaughter, Rachel was sent to the parents to pave the way for her younger siblings success. Trail-blazer and marching to the beat of her own drum, Rachel is loving, sensitive, organized and thoughtful. Her generous heart shows hospitality and compassion that puts the South to shame. A nurturing wife and step-mom, caring sibling and the most loyal friend you could have.


Mike Massie

Childhood Friend

Mike recently spent almost a year road-tripping across the United States, visiting national parks, exploring cities, and emerging with some fascinating tales. Incredibly thoughtful and compassionate, he has faced more than his fair share of challenges and continues to work forward. Jared’s oldest friend, they have fond memories traversing trails and having long fireside chats.

Krista Tarnowski

Friend Since College

One conversation with Krista and she will leave you star-struck, enamored, challenged and entertained all at the same time. Her effortless charm and gregarious personality only compliments her wellspring of gifts as a natural-born leader. Extroverted beyond measure and passionate to overflow, Krista and Abbie can only be described as destined for friendship. Their banter is unchallenged, their limitless energy unparalleled; These true birds of a feather come alive with one other and are a friendship match made in heaven.


Dave Sanabria

Friend Since College

Dave is one of the most interesting humans you will ever meet. He is a couch surfing veteran, NASA technology contributor, and the best book recommender. Dave has an incredibly varied knowledge base, and goes with the server’s food recommendation at a restaurant, every time. A well of unorthodox wisdom, pick any topic and buckle up for a fascinating conversation. Yet beneath his intellectual prowess is a loyal friend and confidant, a useful ally amid the tempest of life.

Jenna Whalen

(Soon to be) Sister-in-law of the Bride

There is no such thing as a dull moment when Jenna is in your life. She is the literal definition of "the life of the party" with personality that shines hotter than the sun itself. Jenna first came into Abbie's life as her younger brothers girlfriend but is now one of Abbie's closest and most treasured friends. Their mirroring ENFP souls can be found in deep existential conversation between rounds on the dance floor. Whether sitting on the couch in sweats binge watching Greys or feeding off each others vivacious energy at any social event, Abbie found a soul sister in Jenna.


Matthew Stetson

Brother of the Bride

Did you cross over into Alabama, or just driving in Matt's pick up truck? Cowboy in a landscaping shirt, Matthew brings a lighthearted and gregarious air to the New England staunch that doesn't deserve his kindness. To be Matt's friend is to have a trusted and loyal comrade who will never do you wrong. Good to his core, Matthew takes you back to a time where gentlemen shook hands in trust. He is goofy, fun-loving, hard-working and a lover at heart.

Monique Stetson

Sister-in-law of the Bride

Small in stature, but though she be small she be fierce! Monique dared to jump into the Stetson party when she started dating Abbie's brother Michael, and is now officially trapped forever (two rings and all). Monique knew she was at home in Abbie's family when she heard the sheer volume of Stetson conversation, could keep up with the familiar large family dynamics and quoted along to the same Christian children's movies. The best part is that under the dry humor and zesty personality lies a giving heart, ready to cook for you, care for you and extend trust even when it's a risk.


Michael Stetson

Brother of the Bride

Engage Michael in conversation and prepare your thinking to be challenged. Personifying his MBTI personality type, Michael is "the debater" of every conversation. Social, intelligent and creative, Michael has the rare gift of seeing the possibilities in anything. Class clown growing up, Michael has channeled his energy and creativity to own his craft and be the most informed person in the room. Just don't follow him on Facebook unless you're ready for daily political banter-turned-someone-is-now-offended.
