Danielle BuchananDanielle Buchanan
Maid of Honor
Danielle is Brittany's younger sister and should be sainted for putting up with her antics as a child. While the family loves to joke about Brittany and Danielle getting off to a rough start when Brittany was 6 and Danielle turned out *not* to be a brother, the truth is she's dearer to Brittany than almost anyone. Now she's a loving aunt to Ozzie (he inherited her baby cheeks, thank goodness!) and one of Brittany's best friends.
Amanda WoodAmanda Wood
Bridesmaid
Amanda and Brittany met in the 6th grade (when everyone is famously the best version of themselves) but didn't become close friends until senior year of high school. Their friendship was built on the rock solid foundation of leaving 15-minute videos on each other's Facebook walls for all to see throughout their college years. And thrived as they belly laughed around Philadelphia for all of their late twenties. They hold out hope that their children will one day fall in love and marry and they'll get to be related. Is that too much to ask?! Brittany was a bridesmaid in Amanda's wedding in June 2017.
Angela MartzAngela Martz
Bridesmaid
Brittany and Angela met in the 4th grade at Ringing Rocks Elementary School when Brittany was a new student and Ang was the coolest girl in school. Despite a performance in the 6th grade talent show nearly coming between them, their friendship survived the ups and downs of middle and high school. Now Ang is one of Brittany's oldest friends and biggest mom mentors. Brittany was a bridesmaid in Angela's wedding in September 2016.
Jasmine Lywen-DillJasmine Lywen-Dill
Bridesmaid
Jasmine and Brittany both attended Boston University and first met when they lived on the same floor studying abroad in London in 2011. Tension over a dirty communal kitchen meant they didn't necessarily hit it off right away, but by the end of the semester they were pals. And when Brittany moved to LA in May 2012 they became the best of friends and eventually roommates for almost 3 years. No one was sadder when Brittany moved back east. Now Brittany is one of the godmothers (along with Kati) to Jasmine's daughter Juniper, and they all get to meet up in cities across the country to celebrate things like weddings, babies, and engagements. Brittany was a bridesmaid in Jasmine's wedding in August 2019.
Kati McKinneyKati McKinney
Bridesmaid
Kati and Brittany both studied Film & Television at Boston University and first met when they studied abroad in London at the same time. They were make-each-other-laugh-in-class friends but didn't become close until they started living together (along with Jasmine) in 2013. For the next 3 years they galavanted around Los Angeles together, and if it wasn't for one of Kati's odd catering jobs, Brittany and Andrew would have never crossed paths. Now they get to be co-godmothers to Jasmine's daughter, Juni. Brittany was a "bridesmaid" in Kati's wedding in April 2024 (at 5 weeks postpartum, thank you very much).
Rich ShermerRich Shermer
Best Man
Andrew and Rich first crossed paths at Mob Scene in Los Angeles back in 2014, bonding over shared deadlines, late-night edits, and the occasional existential crisis that comes with Hollywood postproduction. The friendship evolved to the point where the two could be seen at concerts, sporting events, and any golf course that would tolerate their questionable swings. They’re still thick as thieves, even if one’s in the land of cheesesteaks and the other’s dodging traffic on the West Coast.
Trent BruceTrent Bruce
Groomsman
It was move-in day 2008 at Anderson University when Trent walked past Andrew's dorm room and insisted they share Nintendo 64 controllers. The rest is history. After college, they continued their friendship in Los Angeles, lived together for five years, and threw epic Halloween parties together that still haunt the neighbors to this day. Trent is Andrew's top choice for pranking, brewery hopping, and generally getting into trouble. And, in a twist of fate, it’s thanks to Trent that Andrew met Brittany for the first time—so, in short, Trent has a permanent spot on Andrew’s gratitude list.
Matthew BsheroMatthew Bshero
Groomsman
Andrew and Matthew's story began at Disney World's Be Our Guest restaurant, where they, along with Matthew's now-wife Rachel, mastered the art of pretending they weren't dead inside while serving French-themed magic. Their lifelong friendship was built through the shared trauma of being Disney employees and roughing it as poor twenty-somethings in Orlando. Now they enjoy traveling together, exploring new restaurants, and have taken countless trips back to Disney World as civilians. Andrew, Matthew, and Rachel kept each other sane throughout Covid by hosting regular game nights via Zoom and debating who won the most of the countless Jackbox contests. Spoiler alert: it wasn’t Andrew.
Bryant StantonBryant Stanton
Groomsman
Andrew and Bryant's friendship began in 2014 at Mob Scene in LA, where they bonded over deadlines and questionable office coffee. For eight solid years, they upheld their tradition of standing lunch appointments at the fine dining establishment known as The Counter. Soon, they became weekend fixtures—camping gear in tow, dive bar drinks in hand, and a cacophony of laughs to be heard. Bryant and his wife Ammie went from coworkers to Andrew's surrogate LA family, hosting him for holidays and frequent check-ins during Covid, making sure he was alive and sane.
Elliott JenkinsElliott Jenkins
Groomsman
Andrew and Elliott came into the world on the very same day: February 25, 1990. They met for the first time in 2014 at the same "hang" where Andrew first met Brittany. (Again, thank goodness for Kati and Trent's catering career). Andrew and Elliott bonded over their love of baseball and music and still can be found geeking out over each other's carefully curated video game and vinyl collections. Though they haven't lived in the same city since 2018, Elliott's fantasy baseball league has kept them connected across miles, time zones, and questionable draft picks.
Jon PalsgroveJon Palsgrove
Groomsman
Andrew and JP met at Mob Scene in 2014 (again, where so many lifelong friendships were forged). They bonded over their love of baseball games and concerts. On group camping trips, JP provided a masterclass in campfire cuisine while Andrew helped supply good vibes through his Spotify playlists. While in each other's Covid "bubble," they watched so-bad-they're-good movies to pass the time—and question their life choices. Through it all—bad movies, good meals, and entertaining life decisions—they’ve proven that the best friendships are the ones that survive both the campfire and the Zoom call.
