Da Players
Charles Broome
Officiant
This guy? Gangsta. He's been a friend of Desmond's for more years than either will admit. As officiant, his work is impeccable: all of the couples he has wed are together and strong as ever.
Duct Tape
Groomsman
He creates brilliant games. He cherishes every living creature. We guarantee you don't know any human who can jump from a higher height into a bed broken glass. And, he's one of the best friends Gresham has ever had. He's Duct Tape the Clown, and we love him.
Darrin Butler
Groomsman
Grown Ass Man. Gresham's brother-from-another-mother. Impossible to count the hours they have spent together or times they have saved each other's ass.
Bill Holliday
Groomsman
Unflappable. Always calm and cool in the face of any and all adversity. Undying optimist. This guy has been our antidote in many moments of life's insanity.
Ashley Degeyter
Bridesmaid
When Lara first met her, Degs was that crazy Cajun girl who always had a knife, a fan, and lipstick in her handbag. Equal parts , trouble, yoga-zen & all-night-dance-party. Today? Same- with addition of the most beautiful, magical twins in the universe!
Jenelle Malbrough
Bridesmaid
Jenelle: Lara’s excuse to get down and dirty. Literally. Seems every single adventure together has them covered in road dust, ink, glitter, dog drool or booze. And, Lara wouldn’t change it for anything.
Jennifer "JenO" O'Blenis
Bridesmaid
Lara’s fave P.I.C. for travel. They’ve made countless trips to America: bumming it in SoCal, charity events in San Fran, the old strip in Vegas, ball games in Chicago, breaking rules at Graceland, posh times in NYC... and, even finding fun in Metarie. All of it: priceless.
Will Trufant
Bridesmaid
Will: Arguably the biggest nerd alive. They’ve been friends for damn near half of Lara’s life. But the real reason they’re gonna be friends forever? He knows too much.

Old Buggaz Martini Club
Rotten Old Men & Affiliates
Yeah - they're grouchy, and opinionated, and rotten to the core... and Desmond adores every one of them. Huge thanks to them: they all pitched in and paid for the music at this party!!!!
Candace Cox
Official Wedding Turtle Girl & Dog Wrangler
Candace: probably the sweetest human alive. And, she's taking a break from saving sea turtles to dog sit so we can take a honeymoon!
