Grace & Nate's Wedding
Wedding Party
Briana Jones
Maid of Honor
Bri has stood by Grace as her best friend through it all. Grace would not be where she is now without the support and friendship that Bri has given her in the over 23 years that they have been friends. From 4th grade where they were hesitant to get close to the years after where they became inseparable in high school, the both have always understood each other better than themselves.
Davis Biddle
Best Man
Davis has spent an unholy amount of time before basketball practice, on vacation, and past two in the morning building his and Nate's best friendship over the last twelve years. If that doesn't earn him a role as best man, nothing could.
Caeli Thibault
Bridesmaid
Caeli has been the supportive older sibling to Nate for his whole life and Grace is beyond excited to finally say she has a sister. Grace has seen the compassion and love that Caeli has for her family and Grace cannot be more excited to be able to be one of Caeli's family members.
Emmanuel Bowman
Groomsman
Rivals from little league through high school Manny is the last person Nate expected would be in his wedding party back when he lost the U-12 championship to his wife's little brother. Regardless, the day, and wedding party, wouldn't be complete without him.
Emma Dolan
Bridesmaid
Grace and Emma met at Ithaca College. Although they were close, their true friendship blossomed senior year and grew stronger than ever after they both moved to NYC. Grace considers Emma one of her closest confidants and could not imagine a day going by without her friendship.
Noah Bell
Groomsman
Noah, like Nate, made the trek from the local area to Manhattan. Despite being close throughout middle and high school, their friendship has solidified over the course of countless blurry nights and lazy NFL Sundays. He is a rare caliber of friend and Nate is honored to have him by his side today.
Sarah Kolk
Bridesmaid
Sarah has always been the rock to Grace's life as someone who is there for you throughout all of life's ups and downs, Sarah has stood by Grace for over 23 years through school, sports, and social life. Grace could not be more happy to have her standing by her side on her big day.
Emma Mellon
Groomswoman
Emma is Nate's longest standing friend in his wedding party so he made sure to break the gender barrier to have her by his side today, like she has been by his side for over a decade. Often being the best judgement in the room, Nate has relied on Emma more than he cares to admit. She is one of the most authentic and loving people in his life, and he is so happy to have her included in his wedding party.
Kate Rogers
Bridesmaid
Kate has been there for Grace since the beginning, from amazing Halloween parties to being a space when we all needed somewhere to hangout. Kate has always been there as someone Grace can gossip with about books and tv shows. Carrying on a friendship for over 23 years is wild to anyone but Grace could not imagine a life without Kate there to crack jokes.
Rhys Washington
Groomsman
Rhys, like Nate, graduated from Ithaca College in the Spring of 2021. Despite being in the same major, their friendship sparked when they happened to pass by each other the following summer on the Upper West Side. From that point on Rhys has played the role of writing partner, Patron enthusiast, and dear friend in the movie that is Nate's life.
Brooke Gordon
Bridesmaid
Grace met Brooke her sophomore year of college and they became instant sisters. After Brooke made Grace feel right at home at Ithaca College, Grace knew that Brooke would be someone that she could rely on for the rest of her life. Grace is privileged to be part of Brooke's bridal party for her wedding in June 2025 and she is beyond happy to see her friend marry the man of her dreams.
Max Benevides
Groomsman
Max has been by Nate since freshman year of high school. Their friendship was a slow burn as they started at opposite sides of the friend group, cultivating into what it is today: two fans of all things Boston, a fierce pick up basketball duo, and a pair of friends who are always down for the cause. He remains the most kind-hearted, well-intentioned, and supportive person Nate knows.
