Wedding Party
Carolyn Roth
Maid of Honor
The best big sister, partner in crime, and the person who has made every stage of life more fun. Carolyn can turn anything into a good time, loves her rap music loud, and is the most amazing mom to her three boys and her boxer pup. We grew up sharing a room (and yes, I definitely stole her clothes more than once), and I couldn’t imagine saying “I do” without her by my side… but luckily I won’t have to… Zumba moratorium effective as of January 1 2026… iykyk.
Greg Smith
Best Man
The one and only — my best brother and best man. Greg and I have done just about everything together growing up: exploring new places, playing sports, and, of course, perfecting the art of getting on each other’s nerves (a skill he still excels at). We’ve been a team our whole lives, so it’s only fitting that he’s standing by my side as I marry the love of my life.
Maggie Keatinge (Ruppert)
Bridesmaid
Maggie made Brenda an aunt when she was 13, and she’s been one of the most special people in her life ever since. Watching her grow into the incredible woman she is today — and now getting to celebrate her wedding just two months before ours — feels so full-circle. Brenda always jokes that one her death montage memories will be when Maggie (then 13) met Myles (after staying by her side through hours of labor). Maggie’s warmth, humor, and heart mean the world to us, and we are so grateful that she and Alex moved to the east coast- and we get to have her standing beside us on our big day (just two months after we stand beside her on her big day!!!).
Katrina Critchley
Groomswoman
No matter where in the world Katrina has lived, she’s always been there for a coffee (or prosecco) chat, hearing about all the highs, lows and everything in between. She’s always been up for and encouraged an adventure. Katrina was the one who ran my first marathon with me, which set me on the path that eventually helped me “run” into Brenda, and couldn’t start this next “marathon” without her alongside us.
Blake McRae
Bridesmaid
Our “Blakey” brings laughter wherever she goes. She’s an incredible sister to her brother and has the kindest heart. Our puppies are so lucky to have her as the best dog mom. Having her by our side on this special day means the world to us. #slayqueen #nocap
Myles McRae
Groomsman
We couldn’t imagine this day without our “Myzie” by our side. Our resident lover of chocolate, dogs, and Mickey Mouse — he is the most incredibly talented artist who brings color and creativity into everything he does. His smile lights up every room, and we’re so proud to have him as part of our wedding party.
Charlie Roth
Ring Bearer
Charlie is our awesome nephew and the ultimate sports fan — especially when it comes to the New York Islanders and the Mets. He’s an incredible athlete himself, but even more impressive is his big heart. Sweet, sensitive, and full of spirit, we’re so lucky to have him play such a special role in our day.
Liam Roth
Ring Bearer
Liam is our iconic nephew and, honestly, Brenda’s mini-me reincarnated. He’s full of energy, loves to dance, and brings total party vibes wherever he goes. We can’t wait to see what moves he brings to the dance floor — and we’re pretty sure he’ll steal the show (and maybe the rings, too).
James Roth
Ring Bearer
James is our adorable nephew and the youngest of the three Roth boys. He’s the sweetest little guy who goes with the flow, keeps up with his big brothers, and already loves anything that involves a ball. His big heart and easygoing spirit bring so much joy to our family — and we know he’ll charm everyone (steal the show) on our big day.
Eamonn Fanning
Officiant
Eamonn has known Brenda 280 days longer than anyone else. It’s only natural that he would be the brave soul who would agree to officiate our wedding — even though it means giving up his beloved Halloween weekend. (That’s true sibling love.) He’s been by Brenda’s side since day 1- literally! When he lived in Connecticut, he came to all of Blake’s ultrasound appointments — which shows just how big his heart has always been. and there’s no one else we would want to help us kick off this next chapter. We promise to make it worth missing the costume parties!
