Emily & Mason
Wedding Party
Emily Faria
Bride
Emily is a nurse, working with Prisma Health as Director of Sterile Processing for the four hospitals in the Midlands. She loves smelling candles, baking, reading, and movie marathons.
Mason Thomas
Groom
Mason is the Director of Research for the South Carolina Senate’s Family & Veterans’ Services Committee (which takes many breaths to say). He can often be found helping out a friend, giggling at people’s jokes, or drinking red wine. Probably all three.
Kelly Faria
Maid of Honor
Kelly travels the world as a Senior Consultant with Manhattan Associates. She is a sucker for Mexican food and hot debates, and is constantly on the hunt for a salsa dancing partner.
Steve Rebl
Best Man
Steve is a Sales Rep for Capital Office Products in Columbia (real life Dunder Mifflin?!), and is also a funk rock god who performs with Eight Track Parade. He’s currently developing his bourbon collection and will accept any donations.
Bridget McCartin
Bridesmaid
Bridget teaches French in Vancouver! She has a cute cat named Evie and a man named Adam. She has been teaching Emily how to be a proper nerd since 2007, but won’t indulge her by moving back to the US (apparently we’re boring now).
Ben Berry
Groomsman
Ben is a band director at White Knoll High School. He is an incredible percussionist who happens to make some mean (and immensely creative) cocktails. Ben’s offspring, Emerson, is now learning how to hold drum sticks—traditional grip, obviously.
Becky Rebl
Bridesmaid
Becky is the Marketing Coordinator for USC’s Admissions Office. She is a stunning photographer, designer, and flutist. Her daughter, Ginny, has her smiley eyes and they are ADORABLE.
Bob Evans
Groomsman
Often referred to as “The Guy with the Mustache”, Bob lives a life of intrigue. He is a top notch bassoonist and the father of Finn, the worlds largest domestic cat. Bob enjoys good beer, long walks on the beach, and trips to Asheville.
Courtney Berry
Bridesmaid
Courtney is a Director of Administration and Leadership for Chick-fil-A. She loves dipping sauces, old country music, and Christmas. She makes kick-ass cocktails and can take you to get the state’s best chili dog.
Greg Abraham
Groomsman
Greg is the band director at Hammond School, where he helps kids build instruments they invented! He plays trombone, hangs out with his dog, Bruce, listens to records, and believes he is Batman. Beware of his puns.
