Claire & Greg
Wedding Party
Meg Pfent
Maid of Honor
Meg is Claire's favorite and only biological sister. While 5 years apart, Meg and Claire have grown extremely close over the years despite Meg being ganged up on by her siblings in "downstairs football". One of Claire's fondest memories of Meg is living with her for 4 months during 2020 and skiing 25+ days together.
Preston Peranich
Best Man
Greg’s youngest (and tallest) brother based out of Washington DC. Fun fact - Preston’s first time running a marathon was the third leg of a full Iron Man race. This guy is locked in.
Dana DeBoer
Bridesmaid
Dana is Claire's sister-in-law, who feels like blood (even though she isn't 99.9% Dutch). Besides being the best advice giver and taking care of Claire with her chicken cutlets, Dana is an elite smack talker when it comes to cards and an up-and-coming pickleball all-star.
Zach Peranich
Best Man
Greg’s younger brother based out of Queens, New York. Zach has more rhythm than the rest of the groomsmen party combined. Many great times with Zach over the years, from cozy Sundays on a NYC apartment couch to 14.5 hour flights to South Africa.
Caitlin Moore
Bridesmaid
One of Claire's best friends from Grosse Pointe South High School. Caitlin and Claire were often confused as twins at basketball elite camps for more reasons than one. Ask Caitlin about being co-workers with Claire and John DeBoer at Xanedu Inc!
Dave DeBoer
Groomsman
Claire’s older brother from Grosse Pointe, and the only member of this groomsmen party that can still dunk. Winner of the three-legged race in the DeBoer Family Olympics, and Greg still wants a rematch.
Gretchen Shirar
Bridesmaid
Gretchen and Claire have been friends since Mrs. Schmitz's 2nd-grade class. At 5'10, she is an elite outside shooter, rollerblader, and John DeBoer claims "she has the best hand-eye of anyone he's ever coached". Ask Didi about how Gretchen and Claire sledded off the roof of her garage!
Josh Pfent
Groomsman
Claire’s brother-in-law, and the sendiest member of the groomsman party. Many good memories with Josh of biting off more than I can chew on snowboards and bikes in Lake Tahoe.
Meg McGurk
Bridesmaid
Claire's basketball teammate and first friend at Bucknell. Despite crying over mongo bongo together from being homesick freshmen year, Meg and Claire are now the biggest Bucknell Bison fans you have ever met. Claire and Meg overlapped in NYC for a few years and spent quality time together cooking finance bros at the 50 N 5th St basketball court.
Nick Bietighofer
Groomsman
Creator of the now-famous Bobby Domiwick line of candles and member of the NYC crew. Uniquely supports both Alabama and Georgia, let’s hope they never play each other. Many great memories of trying to ski in the most variable of conditions with Nick.
Danielle Baer
Bridesmaid
Dani B is one of Claire's closest friends from Bucknell. She is an NCAA Division I Basketball Manager of the Year Runner-Up. She could've been rostered, but she was too humble (look up her Lower Merion highlights on Youtube). Ask Dani B to see her and Claire's kayak portraits from San Diego!
Tyler Swanson
Groomsman
Greg’s longtime roommate in NYC and founding member of the Hello Fresh Hate Group. As the kids say - let him cook (so long as it is on the basketball court). A constant source of comedic rants. We go way back, first meeting on a little league baseball team in Pace Florida.
Suné Swart
Bridesmaid
Claire's basketball teammate and 3-year roommate at Bucknell. She played Riptide by Vance Joy on her ukulele for every visitor in our dorm room(s), and I'm sure she'll take requests at the wedding! Ask Su about her, Claire, and Jacquie's No Air music video.
Joseph Yarbrough
Groomsman
Greg’s first roommate in NYC. Big fan of maxing out MPH - be it Miles Per Hour (on skis) or Mulligans per Hole (might actually be the best golfer here).
Alex McPherson
Bridesmaid
Claire's favorite NYC roommate, who saved her from bedbugs. While Alex and Claire didn't know each other at Bucknell, they quickly became besties in the city. Ask Alex about transporting a 7-foot-tall barcart on the subway!
John Luke Duvall
Groomsman
JL has the best taste in music, introducing Greg to his now-favorite band Khruangbin. Many great bike rides around Brooklyn chatting life, sports and future travel aspirations. He's a runner, he's a track star.
Sydney Novak
Bridesmaid
Claire's soon-to-be sister-in-law!! Squid is a fearless leader of the "tie-dye pals" (est. March 2020) and makes a mean tie-dye shirt. As a fellow midwestern gal (Go Huskers), she owns people at Dominoes and, of course, is the life of the party!
Rishav Dey
Groomsman
Along with Greg, the other half of NY United’s most formidable center back partnership (just don’t ask anyone from NY United). Many great nights of pints after rowdy co-ed soccer matches, and Greg’s go-to for career advice.
