Nina LaBarre
Matron of Honor
Dani and Nina have been friends since sporting purple unitards and bright blue eye shadow in their Central Park Dance recital in 1990. The two have been true sisters since the University of Michigan Musical Theatre Orientation Party in 2003. The rest is history.
Nick Caldwell
Groomsman
Cory and Nick met in the first grade, when Slap Bracelets were popular, Home Alone was in theaters, and Larry Bird was still playing for the Celtics. Nick has grown up a lot since then, and at 6’7”, he is literally a giant among men.
Alicia Charles Owsley
Bridesmaid
Alicia and Dani have served "lewks" together in almost every state of the union. The two met on their first show in NYC in 2007 & have been inseparable ever since.
Zack Schultz
Groomsman
From selling "High Tide" carwashes, to shredding the slopes in Sunapee, to epic weekends in Chicago, Zack and Cory have been bubs since 2001. Zack has made the effort to be at every big event in Cory's life. With a chronic case of FOMO, Zack refuses to miss out on a good time.
Jake Wilson
Bridesman
Jake's a BridesMAN... *cough cough*... BRIDESMAN! As director of such world-renowned hits as "Molly" & "Cold Drinks," Jake is responsible for some of Dani's most notable online content.
Matthew Long-Middleton
Groomsman
Although Matthew has a heart of gold, Cory will never forget how he didn't share his toys on the first day of kindergarten. Nevertheless, the two have been best friends ever since.
Liz Cooper
Bridesmaid
Liz is Dani's future sister-in-law, and a fellow lover of Pihl men. The two met at a Boston concert in 2013, and knew instantly that their friendship was "More than a Pihl-ing."
Joel Manalo
Groomsman
Cory and Joel met in 2003 at Penn State. Joel has been such a good friend, that he once helped Cory move a dresser on the New York City Subway. Cory returned the favor by borrowing his car and getting his side-view mirror clipped.
Christina Spieler
Bridesmaid
Christina is Dani's sister-in-law and the matriarch of "The Connecticut Spielers." Having brought 3 adorable boys into the family, she has really raised the stakes on Dani & Cory in the cute Grandchildren department.
Russ Spieler
Groomsman
As Dani's older brother, Russ has often been upstaged by his little sister. This tradition dates back to her solo performance of "One" from A CHORUS LINE at Russ' Bar Mitzvah... when she was 6. His advice to Cory is to keep the bride in the spotlight, and this marriage should go just fine.
Jason Mitchell-Kahn
Wedding Planner
Jason is the man in charge! Any questions about anything, this is your go to guy!
Curtis Holbrook
Officiant
Curtis has been in 11 broadway shows, but this ceremony will be his greatest performance to date.
