Wedding Party

Aubrey Edwards

Bride

Brandon Twilley

Groom

Ben Lonski

Officiant

Ben and Brandon have been close friends for many years; Aubrey met Ben in 2014 at the theater, and it was a mutual older brother/younger sister relationship at first sight. Ben has been (and continues to be) a dear friend and confidante to both Aubrey and Brandon, and for several years (long before their engagement!), they’ve known they’d ask Ben to officiate their wedding.

Alex Bydlon

Maid of Honor

Aubrey and Alex have been BFF’s for more years than they care to count. From playing on the middle school soccer team to navigating multiple breakups together, from drunken shenanigans to “holy crap I own a house I’m an actual adult!” midnight realizations, picking each other up when they’re down (sometimes quite literally!) and keeping each other in line when necessary, Aubrey and Alex like to say that they’re a package deal. Aubrey knew Brandon was the real deal when he got the stamp of approval from Alex…something that is not easy to obtain. Alex has been planning Aubrey’s wedding for literal decades, long before Aubrey ever knew Brandon existed. Due to their ever-evolving and close friendship, (and the fact that it would have been discourteous to not, after all that planning that spans decades), Alex was informed (ha!) long before Twilley proposed that she’d be Aubrey’s MOH. Alex has always been, and continues to be, Aubrey’s constant support, sounding board, partner in crime (who are we kidding? The biggest “crimes” we commit are driving over the speed limit and texting while driving…I’m sensing a theme, here), and shoulder to lean on. There was no question, really, on who would stand with Aubrey on October 8.

Mike Camello

Best Man

Mike and Brandon have known each other since their college days, when Mike helped Brandon navigate the emotions of a Full House episode. While Brandon was despondent over Uncle Jesse moving out of the house, Mike calmly explained that he was simply moving down the street and the single tear from John Stamos was an understandable reason to be emotional. Since then, Mike has been there for all the ups, downs, and loops the roller coaster called life has provided. He has been a sounding board for WTF?! is happening in the world today, an ally in drunken escapades and reconstructing what may have happened the prior night, a supporter in wanting the Aggro Crag to become an Olympic event, and a constant reminder as to how many MLB players make more than the Orioles entire payroll (!). But most importantly of all (cue the mushy end of episode music) he has been a true friend and has been so excited and supportive of Brandon and Aubrey that when the time came to plan a wedding, there was no question who Brandon wanted to have stand with him on October 8.
