Wedding Party
Brayden Bowen
Maid of Honor
Meet the bride’s younger sister & Maid of Honor. Brayden has watched this love story unfold and has very much become the permanent VIP guest in our everyday life. She has taken it upon herself to ensure Brylea is always laughing, hydrated, & emotionally stable. She’s the quiet observer with charismatic presence who helped plan half this wedding. Often found right in the center of Brylea’s friend group.
Sarah Grace Lahousse
Matron of Honor
Cousin of the bride, these two have been inseparable since the day Sarah was born (just six months after Brylea). Sarah got married in May 2025 and led the path of wedding planning. This girl is a jack of all trades as she just finished her four years of active duty, currently in NP school, just moved to New Mexico, & welcomed home her hubby from his first deployment. Most likely to be found next to the Bride at all times.
Ena Belch
Bridesmaid
Best friends with the bride since the first grade, Ena is the definition of a lifelong ride-or-die. These two once had sleepovers that lasted a full week. She always answers a text, always has advice ready, and has been the most loyal friend a girl could ask for. Known for her iconic dancing and her endless well of love, she’s most likely to be found in the center of the dance floor with Kara, living her best life.
Grace Hulsey
Bridesmaid
Grace has been standing beside the Bride for the last 12 years — from the lacrosse field, to four years as college roommates, to basically neighbors. These two have survived so much together that they firmly believe they wouldn’t still be alive without one another’s questionable decisions and unwavering loyalty. A true soulmate-level friend in every season of life. Grace is usually found telling a hilarious story, making sure everyone’s having a good time, or doing something completely random just to make Brylea laugh.
Jenna Murgo
Bridesmaid
Newly Mrs. Murgo, Jenna and Brylea have been inseparable since 10th-grade bio class. They’ve lived a whole lot of life side-by-side, from high school party days to running half marathons (growth!). Brylea was lucky enough to stand beside Jenna on her special day, & now it’s Jenna’s turn to do the same. Jenna always brings the fun, the energy, and the rally-the-troops spirit that makes every moment better. She’s most likely to be found cheering everyone on, making sure the whole crew is having a good time, & doing it all in the perfect outfit.
Kara Siegel
Bridesmaid
Kara and Brylea have been friends since the early days of high school, surviving everything from sports to nursing school to now living basically down the street from each other. Their friendship has seen it all — the chaos, the growth, the questionable decisions, and the endless laughter — and somehow keeps getting better every year. She’s the definition of a solid best friend: loyal, hilarious, and always down for whatever Brylea dreams up. And fair warning to anyone feeling confident… Kara is most likely to be found beating your golf swing without even trying.
Clare Napoli
Bridesmaid
Clare and the Bride were attached at the hip in college. Constant sleepovers, nights at the bars and days at the library, to home cooked meals.

Wyatt Pellicano
Best Man
Wyatt: Wyatt is Cole’s bigger but younger Brother and Co-Best Man. Brylea and Cole may have never met if it wasn’t for Wyatt getting put on the same peewee football team as Brylea’s younger brother Bubba. Wyatt is by far the favorite for highest number of beers drank on wedding night, and can likely be found near the water challenging wedding guests to a shotgun race.
Jed Pellicano
Best Man
Otherwise known as Chuck, Jed is Cole’s youngest brother and Co-Best Man. Jed has been Brylea’s little buddy ever since the love story began. From hanging out and watching movies with them in high school, visiting them at their different colleges, and more recently occupying their couch in Charlotte every time he could visit. Jed will most likely be found on the dance floor with a tie around his head, copying his big brother.
Bubba Bowen
Groomsman
Bubba, legal name Bryant, is Brylea’s younger brother and Phoebe’s favorite pup cup provider. Bubba was Wyatt’s counterpart on the peewee football team that brought the two lovebirds together. Bubba is likely to be found closest to the band singing every song and could potentially dance so hard his pants rip.
Doug Hill
Groomsman
Douglas Hill is a childhood friend of Cole’s and will often refer to himself as the fourth Pellicano brother. Doug was an early proponent of this marriage supporting Brylea and Cole as early as Sophomore year of high school. Doug is most likely to be found balancing a beverage on his head and taking photos with people he does not know.
Kevin Gilbert
Groomsman
Kevin, KG, but he will also respond to Missile. Kevin lived down the hall from Cole and Jack as freshman at Dickinson and even though he was on the soccer team, he always fit in better with the lacrosse players. Kevin is most likely to be found drinking an RBV with Big Mark on the wedding day and will be the first to go to bed.
TC Cook
Groomsman
Terrence Cook, but call him TC please. TC with no exaggeration, is Cole’s oldest and longest friendship. They met at Broadneck Elementary in the second grade, and when the Pellicanos moved within walking distance of the Cooks they were inseparable. TC is most likely to be found acting as security and making sure there aren’t any uninvited wedding crashers.
Jack Ward
Groomsman
Jack Ward or Wardo will work. Jack and Cole met as freshmen at Dickinson and have been inseparable ever since. Living together all four years of college and visiting each other every single year since. Wardo was always a Brylea and Cole supporter and has seen a lot of the love story. You can find him offering shots at the bar to people he has not met yet.

Nick Goles
Usher
Nick, Nicky, or Ickleford to some. Nick was Cole’s favorite teammate in games and his favorite opponent in Practice at Dickinson. At any given point, Nick can be found with a nice tequila in his hand and will likely be by the water looking over the Chesapeake Bay, getting his dose of Maryland before he heads back down to Florida to his wife Chelsea and soon to be Daughter!
Ryan Schaffer
Usher
Ryan, or Schaff. Ryan was in Cole’s class at Dickinson and was notorious for having the fastest shot on the lacrosse team. So, as you can imagine, they really hit it off as he would leave Cole with a new welt after every practice. What brought Ryan and Cole together off the field was love for their families and venting about how brutal it is to be the oldest brother of three.
Bryce Allen
Usher
Bryce, but you will hear people call him Peanut. Bryce went to Dickinson with Cole and was a star on the basketball team and was also a member of the Raven’s Claw Honor Society with Cole. On wedding day, Bryce will not leave the dance floor, under any circumstances. Don’t ask him to.
Jordan Hollander
