Wedding Party

Katy Brooker

Matron of Honor

Though she'll never admit it, Jessica considers Katy to be her very first role model, partner in crime, and best friend. That being said, their 30-year relationship is not without strife. Jessica considers the greatest tragedy in the world to be that her feet are half a size too large to borrow Katy's extensive shoe collection; Katy sees this as the greatest gift she's been given.

Scott Bellamey

Best Man

Tyler's very first buddy, Scott is the little brother that Tyler always needed (and sometimes deserved). The Yin to his Yang. The point to his counterpoint. An ambassador for the Zen from within & a moderating force for those who take themselves too seriously. A best man indeed.

Claire Carroll

Bridesmaid

From UT football games to traipsing around 6th Street on Tuesday nights, Claire and Jessica's friendship was built on the foundation of Reveraid, hating the same classes, and an unabating love of jerky. Since freshman year, they have been active encouragers of the other's questionable decisions in both life and nutrition. Luckily for both, they both managed to finish their senior year thesis and their friendship is going strong over a decade later.

Nick Martin

Groomsman

Let it be known - Nick 'Nichols' Martin will be there. Three-day music fest in the middle of an active tornado watch? There. Midnight border crossings into Bulgaria? There. Zigzagging through a barrage of bootleg fireworks during New Year's Eve in Cuzco? There. Groomsman at your wedding after 8 years of shared adventures? You tell me.

Aditi Mukherji

Bridesmaid

Aditi and Jessica's friendship began in the hallowed halls of Blanton dormitory in 2007. From their high jinks freshmen year to battling through Plan II Physics to hours on hours of reality TV marathons on a college apartment futon to a variety of mid-twenties ill-fated diets, Aditi's been there through it all. As Ladybird's first auntie and greatest love, Aditi remains an honorary Brooker as Jessica's parents will always remind her.

Logan Lakey

Groomsman

By age 18, Logan & Tyler had graduated from high school summer nerd camp 'scholars' to undergrad P.I.C.'s at the University of Arkansas. Jordan & Pippen. Iron Man & Captain America. Salt-N-Pepa. You've heard it all before. Let's just say - if you know, you know.

Carolyn Logan

Bridesmaid

Carolyn retains the dubious honor of being Jessica's longest standing non-related roommate, serving her time from 2008-2011 as they battled an out-of-date trash compactor together in West Campus. Their friendship blossomed through passing snarky notes in 9th grade health class and has held firm almost two decades later, supported by snacks, dogs, and whiskey.

Stephen Goode

Groomsman

An enigma wrapped in a mystery, Stephen Goode defies description. Put it this way. You ever seen a grown man stop talking mid-sentence to chase a train whistle across several city blocks? You have now. Who's our train guy? Don't be ridiculous.
