Wedding Party
Connor Simpson
Best Man
Connor: 6'5. Dirty Blonde. Unit. A Specimen. - Jonas's Urban Dictionary College teammates and roommates, Connor and Jonas did everything together from working out to spending way too much time in Shenanigans. In fact, Connor's out of this world success on Hinge is what inspired Jonas to re-seek love. Connor has never failed to keep Jonas in check and limit the impacts of his sometimes stupid decisions. Whether it's being attacked by ballistic missiles or winning a fish-race in San Diego, Connor carries the best attitude through it all, which Jonas admires. By the way Connor, the dress code doesn't include any Trader Joe's shirts. Sorry. But, you'll be happy to hear your drinks are free!
Maya Watts
Maid of Honor
Grace's sister, who thinks she's a standup comedian, has made it her mission to keep Grace humble throughout life. They used to fight about everything, but their equally passionate love for the "Twilight" movies, brown butter chocolate chip cookies, and Snoopy, helped them to persevere. They now find it necessary to facetime almost daily about anything and everything, including but not limited to, hometown drama, Abue (their tiny Mexican grandma), and whose biceps have become more substantial. You can find her studying for Physics in the FSU library or on a zoom call with her lawyer for a ~minor~ car accident that occurred 2.5 years ago.
Maddy Tapp
Bridesmaid
During Grace's peak years, often referred to as her bob phase, Maddy entered Grace's world at an elementary school Christmas Party. As fate would have it, their sarcastic humor would reunite them in middle school, putting each other in their iPhone 4's as "my twin ;)." In fact, Maddy so generously allowed Grace to be her for one year in college, as they're physical appearances bear an uncanny resemblance. Wise beyond their age, it makes complete sense that they are both choosing to date older men.
Enzo Moreno
Groomsman
Jonas's roommate during his first two years at Navy and a C4L, Enzo helped lead the transformation from boy to man. From Saturday nights dedicated to pushups to producing subpar soundcloud mixes and making weird dropshipping businesses, let's just say Enzo and Jonas are both now in a better place. Jonas doesn't make it through Navy without him. One of the funniest, more ripped, most suave, shortest men out there, @thatmexicanenzo is a true Jefe. His snapchat username says it all.
Nick Turrill
Groomsman
Friends since middle school, it's only fitting that Nick's girlfriend's name is also named Grace. A true scholar, Nick just graduated from Columbia, Cambridge, and is now frolicking at Harvard Law. From teaching factoring to their 8th grade class to getting C's in middle school P.E., and surfing every morning during Covid summer with their computers on the sand, zooming their college classes, to getting 400 dollar speeding tickets, Jonas and Nick have been through it all. Nick provides the most sound advice, and while Jonas has failed to listen at times, Nick has never failed to be there for him. With GRACE and Peace.
Syd Fitz
Bridesmaid
A Kappa Kappa Gamma alum, a FSU famous DJ, and a health science wizard, Syd Fitz is what you would call the Jack of all Trades. Syd Fitz made a dramatic entrance into Grace's life at the Paris CDG airport while on the way to their study abroad, and the rest is history. The next 6 weeks were filled with chasing tequila with milk, an intense sun that committed murder on Syd's fair Irish skin, and constant screaming at Spanish men who's struggled to tell the difference between a curve and a line. Grace enjoyed galavanting around Spain so much with Syd that she eventually agreed to move there with Jonas. Thanks Syd!
Jack Savant
Groomsman
Neighbors, best friends, and Cubs, Jack(Son)OfDoug and Jonas basically lived together, from binging the Blacklist together to stressing over the SAT to their backyard basketball pickup games. Unfortunately for Jonas, Jack was a basketball or a baseball player depending on the day, and a filthy one, so these games went by rather quick. But, time seems to never pass in between their get-togethers. Jack and Jonas maintained the healthiest, most loving long distance relationship throughout their college years. The shirtless progress pics to one other from across the country are what got Jonas out of bed in the mornings. A man with impeccable European style and always perfect hair, Jack was meant to be in Italy for this wedding.
Scott Kase
Groomsman
A Los Angeles native now reformed, Scott can be found wearing his cowboy hat down in Texas or scavenging the fields in Idaho, ready for any adventure that presents itself. From high school football jock and bully (not Jonas’s thank god) to college buddy, Scott introduced Jonas to the semi state known as Washington D.C. When touring Georgetown, Scott and Jonas almost risked their Senior Prom for a night of underage fun. Luckily, due to Scott's natural athletic ability and Spirit Airline's exceptional customer service, they made it. Their bond remains in tact, with Scott being the ultimate wingman, recommending a second date spot on the Georgetown waterfront with the most mediocre calamari and fries. Smart move though once again by the Scott, start the bar low so you can keep on impressing.
Natalie Bots
Bridesmaid
Grace and Nat met as models at Gaslamp Gift Gallery and became best friends immediately. Although Nat may appear short, the shortest thing about her is her hair and the men she dates. On a Friday night, you can find Nat crocheting in her Brooklyn apartment, plotting her move to Europe, or thrifting in the children's section. As the youngest of four, with a Croatian mom and a military stepdad, Nat turned out surprisingly calm, cool, and mostly collected. You'll often find her on the dance floor with a spritz in hand. Also, if you follow her on Instagram and don't get an immediate follow back, please don't take offense—she's probably on another social media cleanse!
