Wedding Party

Anthony Iemma

Best Man

For Dominic, there was no question when it came time to pick who his best man would be - he knew he would be asking his big brother Anth to stand by his side. Growing up with a big brother was and still is something that Dominic loves and will never take for granted. Dominic always knows that he can call or text Anth with anything and he will always be there.

Camille Hlavka

Matron of Honor

Although Camille is the bride's (second) cousin, the two first met when Alexis moved to the East Coast in 2021. They've been inseparable ever since Alexis did an outfit change in the middle of Grand Central Station because the bathrooms were locked due to COVID.

Logan Lum

Groomsman

When Dominic first heard about his little sister having a boyfriend, obviously his older brother instincts kicked in and he needed to be intimidating... even though Dominic doesn't know how intimidating a 5'5" 150lb kid could be, but he gave it his best. For a while, Logan was a bit quiet around Dominic and the rest of the family, but in time, he started to get more comfortable. In recent years, Dominic can say that him and Logan have become great friends, and soon-to-be brothers, bonding over many different things.

Nicole Iemma

Bridesmaid

Being a sister herself, Alexis knew how important it was to build a relationship with Nicole from the beginning of her relationship with Dom and the two were able to bond immediately over each of their respective dance histories. Now, Nicole is Alexis' go-to girl to spill the tea (although iced coffee is both of their drinks of choice).

Dalton Brauner

Groomsman

When Dominic first met Dalton, he was warned that Dalton is a bit of a wild card. When Dominic asked that meant, he was told, "You'll see." And it took all of three seconds for him to understand what that meant because when Dalton opened the door to his college apartment to greet Dominic, he was in the middle of getting dressed and was just wearing his boxers. Even though they might not get to see each other too often, they have definitely become close and have developed a great friendship.

Siusie Dawson

Bridesmaid

Siusie is the girl whom Alexis gave the stamp of approval for dating her brother, Dalton, within five minutes of meeting her. She fits right into the Brauner side of the family like a missing puzzle piece whose facial expressions match and/or exceed those of Alexis' (if you know, you know).

Michael Comunale

Groomsman

If you know Dominic, you know that growing up, whenever he said he was with his family, it didn't just mean his immediate family - it meant his aunts, uncles, and cousins. Michael and Dominic are close in age and basically are like brothers. Michael is like Dominic's "big" little brother since he stands almost a foot taller than Dominic.

Tori Holmes

Bridesmaid

The friendship of Alexis and Tori has been through the test of time having started in 6th grade because of their fathers' friendship at the South Dakota field trip and it continues to go strong. They have both seen each other at their worst, as well as their best, and Alexis was fortunate enough to stand by Tori's side on her special day in 2023. As Dom and Alexis were leaving her wedding, Tori told Dom something along the lines of, "Don't let her go!"

Philip Scarano

Groomsman

Dominic and his cousin, Philip, have a lot in common. They both love hunting, sports, and firefighting to name a few. Actually, Philip may not know it, but he is a big part of the reason why Dominic got into firefighting. Anytime they are together, there is bound to be a good story to come from it. They've been told they are two peas in a pod.

Hannah Scarano

Bridesmaid

Since Dom and Philip have a close relationship, Hannah was hoping that she would have a close relationship with whomever Dom chose to marry. In fact, the night she met Alexis she told Philip, "If Dom doesn't marry her, I will!" (even though her and Philip were already engaged). Little did she know she would be Alexis' bridal consultant at Majesty Bridal the day Alexis said yes to the dress and standing by her side on her special day.

Devon Pradhuman

Groomsman

Does Dominic really have to say anything here? If you know Dominic, then you know Devon, because 99% of the stories and adventures Dominic has the two were together. Dominic has known Devon since they were 18 months old and it's been a best friendship ever since. No matter where they are in life, Dominic knows that he can always count on Dev to be there and have his back.

Marisa Miloro

Bridesmaid

Marisa took Alexis under her wing right from Alexis' first day working at the aquarium. She is typically the first person Alexis turns to when things are either good or bad. Ironically, Marisa's husband, Mark, is the cousin of Dominic's high school friend, Abbie. When Marisa found this out, Mark immediately called Abbie as a reference on Dom's behalf. Marisa is the one featured in "How We Met - Her Version" and was the first person Alexis called after her and Dom's first kiss.

Anthony Iemma

Father of the Groom

Maria Iemma

Mother of the Groom

Maria and Alexis have multiple things in common - their love for Dom, their love for white wine, and their shoe size. During one of Alexis and Dom's first Facetime chats, Maria came downstairs to let Dom know that dinner was ready. She paused when she saw he was on the phone (having probably heard a female voice on the other end). "Who are you talking to?" she asked Dom. "Uh... my people!" he stuttered. She accepted it in the moment, but upon first meeting Alexis, she looked at Dom and said, "My people, huh?"

Anthony Brauner

Father of the Bride

Dawn Brauner

Mother of the Bride

As Alexis' mother, Dawn always knew what Alexis deserved in a relationship. When Alexis started her dating era, Dawn would ask Alexis to place the prospect on their hypothetical scale ranging from "Bananaboy" to "Wonderboy." Dawn could pick out the frogs quicker than Alexis could, but always let Alexis make her own choices and was there for Alexis when her heart was broken. When Alexis introduced Dominic to her family, Dawn never brought up the scale - she probably already knew that Dominic was Alexis' prince.
