Maid of Honor
Noel is Gabby's younger sister, also famously known as her brunette twin. Only 2 years younger, they grew up together, shared similar friends, both pursued dance, went to the same parties... you get the twin thing now? Noel was just accepted to PA school (everyone congratulate her!), but thankfully doesn't start until after her Maid of Honor duties are over, because this day and all that leads up to it wouldn't be whole without her.
Best Man
Drew is John's older brother and has since they were kids been blazing the path in terms of international travel and getting into trouble. He currently lives in Portland and has taken up skiing (although will never be as skilled as John on the mountain). John and Drew challenge each other talking about the economy, international affairs, politics and anything else under the sun. Drew has tried to convey his appreciation of watches, bourbon, and other collectibles (what's next, stamps?) to John who pretends he's listening. Couldn't get married without him.
Bridesmaid
Libby is John's younger sister, Gabby's soon-to-be sister. Not shortly after John and Gabby met, Libby and Gabby met and instantly knew they'd be close. From trips across the world to Gabby dragging Libby on "unsuspecting" long runs, there's always lots of fun, laughter, wine (Gabby pours only) and vintage cloth shopping no matter where they go.
Groomsman
Max is Gabby's brother and John's future brother-in-law. In college, Max played baseball for the University of Rhode Island although has since retired and made his way to Dallas for work (and has even bought his first pair of boots). John and Max have gotten to get beers and catch up all across the country (New York, Dana Point, Dallas and Rhode Island) and are looking forward to the first Peroni in Italy.
Bridesmaid
As you can probably tell from the picture, Gabby and Rebecca go WAY back. They are only 3 months apart, and having literally grown up together, are sisters in spirit. Their parents have been friends for 30+ years, and, along with their siblings, refer to each other's family as a second family spending several holidays together every year. By the way, Mircovich/Gnasso Christimas Eve's are legendary. While many of Rebecca's talents lie in the artistic/creative space (Gabby, not so much), they've gotten share so much of life together.
Groomsman
Preston and John have known each other since childhood. They attended the same pre-k together and lived on the same street growing up. Since then, they've gotten into adventure after adventure across the world together. Preston and John went on a 5-week backpacking trip together throughout Europe after college graduation, have skied together on countless mountains throughout the Rockies and have gone on camping trips wherever the wind blew them. If outdoor activities weren't involved Wesley was in to drive them around in the Saab.
Bridesmaid
Working at the same marketing agency in Dallas Tx, a fellow colleague introduced Gabby and Lindsey, telling them both "You GOTTA meet her, you'll love her". Bitter rivals (Gabby a Texas alum, Lindsey an Oklahoma alum) put them at odds of getting along and fast-forward about 6 years, that colleague was right, but probably couldn't have predicted just HOW much they would mean to each other.
Groomsman
Wesley and John grew up together as kids with John's sister Libby often harassing them (and striking Wesley in the head with her plastic princess wand). Wesley, John and Preston (known collectively as the South Grapevine Boys) have spent countless hours playing board games at Wesley's house with sixers of beer catching up in college. Recently, John and Wesley have spent time together with their better halves (Madelyn and Gabby) in Milwaukee for Wesley's wedding, tubing in the mountains in Colorado and competitive pickleball matches back home in Grapevine.
Best Boy in the World
Outside of confirming that John and Gabby could keep something alive for multiple years Frankie has been the been a central sense of joy for both John and Gabby. Since strutting into their life almost 3 years ago Frank has become a centerpiece of every place he's called home. He's joined in on their adventures to Jackson WY, the mountains of Colorado, San Diego and now enjoys a big backyard in Austin Tx. While he couldn't be in person for our wedding (booked social calendar) he can't wait to see his Mom and Dad when they get back from Italy.
