Kylie & Brandon
Wedding Party
Tiffany Ross
Maid of Honor
They first met in pharmacy school. Tiffany was scared of Kylie in the beginning (due to her intense look when she is thinking). Once they began studying in a study group together, they were inseparable. Tiffany has gotten Kylie through some of the most difficult times in her life. She is always there with a kind word, a shoulder to cry on and always willing to listen to Kylie complain. Tiffany is Kylie's rock and she could not imagine her "big day" without her.

Derek Walker
Usher
Derek and Brandon were assigned to the same team. Derek was assigned a seat right in front of Brandon. To this point, Brandon had no idea about Derek Walker. He had heard all kinds of rumors that turned out completely false. Derek and Brandon were quite unsure of one another for the first couple weeks of being on the same team, but one day Brandon took a jar of his homemade hot mustard to work for Derek and the friendship took off. They quickly became very good friends and most of the time when you saw one you would see the other at work. Derek was along for the ride while Brandon and Kylie were dating and figuring out where things were going. As Derek would say he provided Brandon with great advice, but Kylie might disagree. Derek has since moved on to his dream job.
