Meet Our Wedding Party
Daria Ferdine
Officiant
Daria met Kevin during their semester abroad at University College Cork in 2016 and the two have been close friends ever since.

Mr. Frodo Waggins
Ring Bearer
Frodo Waggins is Tara and Kevin's puppy, who is heckin' proud to be carrying the rings of power for his paw-rents on their wedding day.
Ruth Russell
Maid of Honor
This one time at band camp... Ruth and Tara have been best friends since middle school. They did a ton of school clubs together, including band and Theatre Club. Since high school, they have travelled all over the world together (to Australia, New Zealand, Amsterdam and Ireland, specifically). When they are not on a grand adventure together, Tara and Ruth spend their Thursday’s cuddled up together with a glass of wine and the latest episode of Grey’s Anatomy. Tara could not imagine trusting anyone else as her maid of honor and she is so grateful to have Ruth standing by her side on her wedding day.
David Fairfax
Best Man
David is Kevin's older brother. There is nobody else Kevin could have pictured picking as the best man at his wedding and he is thrilled to have him standing by his side.
Liz Morier
Bridesmaid
Liz and Tara were roommates their freshman year of college and have been great friends since day 1. Tara and Liz share many loves, including dogs, Darren Criss, and the Jonas Brothers. Tara is thrilled to have Liz standing alongside her on her wedding day.
Kiran Balan
Groomsman
Kiran is Tara’s younger brother and member of Kevin’s groomsmen. Kiran is Tara’s confidante, her go-to for movie recommendations, and her favorite New York tour guide. He has been through, literally, everything with her, and Tara and Kevin are thrilled to have him standing by their sides on their wedding day.
Shaylyn Kelly
Bridesmaid
Tara and Shaylyn became close friends in college and lived together senior year, along with Rachel and Liz. Shaylyn is a Boston native and dog-lover, like Tara. Shaylyn is an incredible friend because she is up for anything - from a last-minute road-trip, to suite-mate karaoke, to ~chill~ wine & paint nights. Tara is thrilled to have Shaylyn standing by her side on her wedding day.
Sam Gordon
Groomsman
Kevin and Sam first met his second year of high school when doing crew together for the theater company. Sam wore a shirt that said "Bazinga" on it every Thursday which is when crew met. Kevin and Sam were good friends for several months before Kevin learned his actual name because he just called him Bazinga. Kevin and Sam have been best friends since and share many weird, nerdy interests.
Rachel Tscherwinski
Bridesmaid
Tara and Rachel were suite-mates their freshman year of college and have been close friends ever since. Tara and Rachel have bonded through years of crazy adventures from living in LA together, to surviving wild road trips, to being long-distant work out buddies - all with plenty of photoshoots along the way. Tara is so grateful to have Rachel standing by her side on her wedding day.
Seán Harrington
Groomsman
Kevin and Seán did a year of school together in Ireland before Kevin moved to America. While they were't close back then, when Kevin went back to Ireland for a year in 2016 he and Seán got back in touch. Many sessions later, Seán is one of Kevin's closest friends, and Kevin's doctor's worst enemy
