Best Man & Father of the Groom
Growing up and to this day, he's still Brad's Superman. The man who taught him how to improvise, adapt and overcome anything and everything the world may throw at him. The one person Brad feared the most, yet also made him feel completely safe in his presence. Even though Brad challenged him at every turn, Brian always had a lesson to teach. Brian gave Brad his voice and forced him to know when (and when not) to use it. Throughout the years, they both learned how to see each other's viewpoint, thus solidifying their bond as they continually grow closer.
Maid of Honor
Haelie is Jacque's sister. They are like oil and vinegar and don't always see eye to eye but still close nonetheless. No matter where they are in life, if either one of them needs anything, they have each others backs. Haelie is Jacque's anchor and Jacque is Haelie's compass.
Groomsman
Brian serves as Brad's competitive drive. Best of friends since their sophomore year of high school, they've seen their fair share of ups and downs. These two founding members of their "Four Horsemen" quartet continually drive each other (crazy) as though being first or having the best is not only the most important thing - it's the only thing. When in reality, they helped each other to find there was so much more to their lives through family and friendship, which ultimately are one in the same. A bond which has been tried by even the most formidable of circumstances, yet never wavered. Brian comes through every single time.
Bridesmaid
Heidi is Jacques bestfriend of 14 years and as Jacque would put it, "matchmaker". If it wasn't for Heidi's encouragement and you only live once attitude, Jacque would have never taken a chance on Brad and they would not be where they are today. For that, Jacque and Brad will always be grateful.
Groomsman
Ryan etched his place in Brad's life almost 15 years ago, a mark which is clearly visible as the day he made it. A constant reminder of loyalty, he's walked alongside Brad through some of his darkest moments, as well as celebrating the finest. Unquestionably, Ryan is the guy who would give his last dollar to help someone in need, even if it meant his own temporary discomfort. Brother would be an understatement; Doppelganger perhaps? Maybe there is no one term which can adequately describe exactly what Ryan means to Brad.
Bridesmaid
Beautiful, thoughtful, caring, accepting. Fiona is Brad's daughter and Jacque's soon to be step-daughter. She means the world to both, Jacque and Brad are elated to have Fiona in the wedding to help share in this monumental time.
Groomsman
Bobo, Mr. Bobe, Mr. Bobenstein. Chrystain holds the obvious place near and dear to Brad's heart, a compass towards the future. Since the day he was born, his very first breath, he would serve as Brad's constant reminder to always try to live a life of altruism. Chrystain taught him that life is to be shared with one another, placing selfishness by the wayside. They would do everything together, a Son walking in his Father's footsteps; A Father seeing the world through his Son's eyes. As time goes on, simple parley turns into deep intellectual deliberation, often now making the student, the teacher.
Junior Bridesmaid
Punk. That is the nickname given to her by her Aunt Jacque since she was a few days old. Besides, being a punk, she is also very loving, caring and such a beautiful young women. Her and her Aunt have such a close relationship and it wasn't even a question as to whether or not she would be apart of the wedding. Jacque couldn't imagine not having this young lady standing up with her on this big day.
Father of the Bride
Tony and Jacque have always had a strong relationship. In other words, Jacque is a daddy's girl. Anything that Jacque has ever needed, Tony has always done his best to help out and provide. He is the funny Dad who says what he thinks and does what he wants but he has the biggest heart and just wants his little girl to be happy!
Mother of the Groom
GmomD is how all of Brad's friends affectionately know her. To him, she's always been his world. Unabashedly a "Momma's Boy", Brad has, and will always place Patricia on the highest of pedestals. She's his nurturing soul, guiding light and benevolent confidant all rolled into one incredible angel. His purveyor of morality, Patricia selflessly sacrificed so much to ensure Brad was always given the tools to make decisions that would ultimately mold him into the man he is today. More importantly, she's Brad's inspiration to ponder when considering the journey he and Jacque are about to embark on.
Mother of the Bride
Lori and Jacque. Two peas in a pod. Jacque has learned how to be the women she is from her mother and they are very like minded. Jacque would not be half the women she is without her mothers guidance and love over the years. Lori has helped out so much with the preparation of this day and for that, we will be forever grateful!
